5 STONES FM is a podcast for men who seek to grow in strength and wisdom by God's Word. Together, we explore concepts like work, marriage, entertainment, faith, salvation, love, acceptance, and more. We look to the Bible for answers about life. I hope this podcast encourages anyone who is listening. I hope it leads people to a better understanding of God's love. At the very least, I hope it sparks your curiosity and inspires you to find out for yourself who Jesus Christ really is. There are a lot of misconceptions right now--even in some churches. If you search the Word of God, with a sincere heart, you will find answers to your questions.
The resurrection of Jesus Christ is an incredible miracle. It is also the mark of the greatest victory ever won. The Lord conquered sin and death so that we may have life. He lived a perfect, sinless life, and followed every detail of the Father's plan for our redemption--all the way to the point of death.

Sometimes, I think we don't talk enough bout the feelings Jesus had, knowing the kind of death He was facing. He felt real anguish before His sacrifice and real pain while He was being beaten and nailed to the cross--for our sake.

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. - Romans 15:13
REFLECTION
Sometimes the realities of life drain our reservoirs of joy and peace, leaving us feeling empty and uninspired. But the Apostle Paul's words in Romans 15:13 offer a different perspective about where true joy comes from.
The LORD is the God of hope. His desire is to"fill us with joy and peace." But Paul doesn't stop there. He goes on to say we will overflow with hope "by the power of the Holy Spirit." This is about more than getting by; it's about thriving in all of circumstances. It's about having so much hope, joy, and peace that it spills over, touching the lives of those around us.
Let the power of God's Holy Spirit cause you to be passionate about bringing love and light into this world through your relationships, your work, and everything you do. The LORD does not intend for you to lead a dull life. So live fully alive in the new life you have in Christ and encourage others to do the same.

We can offer people kindness and respect whether we agree with them or not.
VERSE
Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ - Matthew 22:37-39
REFLECTION
In Matthew 22:37-39, Jesus tells us how to live according to God's will. His command to love God completely parallels the command to love others. This is about more than being nice when it's convenient. The Lord is talking about a radical love that embraces everyone with the same depth of compassion, respect, and kindness we want for ourselves. This is the kind of love He demonstrated to the very people who had Him killed on the cross.
A fair warning, the kind of love Jesus wants us to live by will challenge you to forgive people who have wronged you. It will challenge you to look beyond all prejudice and to act with generosity and understanding for everyone--even to people who refuse to show you that same respect. This kind of love requires a conscious effort to see the image of God in every person.
Jesus links the command "love your neighbor as yourself" to the love of God, making it more than a moral guideline. It's a mindset and a way of living that frees you from the burden of division and a judgmental spirit. Our love for others is a reflection of our love for God. Make a conscious decision to allow His love to flow through your life and into the lives of others.
LIVE INSPIRED
In a world that often encourages self-centeredness, choosing to love others as Jesus commanded is a counter-cultural act. It's a powerful way to bring light into the darkness and to build bridges where walls once stood. Start small: a kind word, a helpful gesture, an open ear. When multiplied, these acts of love can transform the world.

Based On: Psalm 34:18
We can all relate to the pain of a broken heart. It's a pain that transcends culture, age, and circumstance. I heard someone say once that having your heart broken feels like the whole world is holding its breath. But really, it's more like the world keeps going while we roll around on the ground suffocating.

Proverbs 9:11-12
When you're going in the wrong direction, the best course of action is to simply turn around.
To reach a destination, you need to know where you're going. And it stands to reason that good directions will get you there faster and with fewer problems. Today's verses--and all the Proverbs, really--remind us that the pursuit of wisdom is the first step to living a better life. God's wisdom teaches us to navigate the world with discernment. It shows us how to make better decisions, ultimately leading to a more fulfilling life. To get even more practical, verse 11 says that living by God's wisdom will multiply your days.

There is a reason we each have an innate desire to express and appreciate all kinds of art. It is because God, our Father, is creative by nature. When the Lord brought the world into existence, He demonstrated His power, imagination, and love in a profound and beautiful way. - Based on Genesis 1:1

There are trees with roots that run so deeply into the earth they can withstand winds strong enough to destroy a house. Life can be like that. When the storms come--illness, financial problems, the loss of a loved one--you're going to feel it. You might bend, but you don't have to break.

REFLECTION: In his letter to the Philippians, Paul talks about the importance of focusing our thoughts on what is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, and admirable. This strategy actually plays a role in our mental and emotional health.
The mind is a battleground where focus and perceptions are shaped. Plenty of things in this world fuel the fires of cynicism and despair. However, Paul's words remind us that we can choose where to direct our thoughts. By consciously focusing on the pure and the praiseworthy, we can guard our hearts from despair and nurture a spirit of peace and joy.
I'm not talking about ignoring the realities of life's hardships but viewing them through God's eternal hope and goodness. It's about recognizing the Creator's hand amid trials and turning our attention to the blessings that often go unnoticed.

REFLECTION: Did you see the headline in the news today? All problems in the world have been solved, there is no pain and suffering, and everyone has everything they need.
Obviously, this headline has not yet run. But this will be the news the day Jesus returns. Until then, you can continue to live fully alive despite your problems because you are a fighter empowered by God's Holy Spirit. Like David, you will face giants. Also, like David, you are beloved by the Creator and aided by His supernatural strength and wisdom. Your battles are the precursor for the victory you have in Christ.

TITLE: PRAY WITH PURPOSE (Guest: Sergio Hurtado)
VERSE: Matthew 7:7-11
DEVOTIONAL: https://www.5stonesfm.com/post/pray-with-purpose
Prayer causes things to happen--by God’s power, not our own. But sometimes, we forget that we are a part of that equation. The Lord wants us to be active participants in His will. Because understanding the value of prayer is not enough. The knowing needs to be accompanied by doing.
Today we get to hear from a brother in Christ who is on fire for the Lord. Sergio Hurtado, from Harvest Church, has experienced both ends of the spectrum--from trying to accomplish things on his own, apart from God--to seeking God’s will first and taking his time with the Lord seriously. He’s going to share his thoughts and a few practical steps we can take to be more intentional in our prayer life.
God bless you, men!

The Lord wants us to be intentional with our prayers. So let’s consider 3 reasons we should write them down.

A second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ The entire law and all the demands of the prophets are based on these two commandments.”

Maya Angelou once said, "If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude." It takes action to change our circumstances, but sometimes it's our mindset about a situation that needs to be changed.

TITLE: GOALS THAT MATTER - PART 3 (FAITH)
VERSE: Mark 9:22-23
LINK: https://www.5stonesfm.com/blog
Of the people who set New Year’s resolutions last year, only 8% achieved them. Which means 92% of us failed. And even more disappointing, 64% of us gave up within the first month.
Let's reverse these stats for our goals this year. To do this, we must start by connecting our goals with a greater purpose. By setting goals that matter.
In this 3 Part Daily Devotional, we are exploring 3 concepts from God's Word that will help us to set goals that matter and to be encouraged to boldly pursue them to completion.
GOALS THAT MATTER - PART 1: MISSION (the why)
GOALS THAT MATTER - PART 2: VISION (the what)
GOALS THAT MATTER - PART 3: FAITH (the how)
