1:14:43

Artificial intelligence is evolving at an unprecedented pace—what does that mean for the future of technology, venture capital, business, and even our understanding of ourselves? Award-winning journalist and writer Anil Ananthaswamy joins us for our latest episode to discuss his latest book Why Machines Learn: The Elegant Math Behind Modern AI . Anil helps us explore the journey and many breakthroughs that have propelled machine learning from simple perceptrons to the sophisticated algorithms shaping today’s AI revolution, powering GPT and other models. The discussion aims to demystify some of the underlying math that powers modern machine learning to help everyone grasp this technology impacting our lives, even if your last math class was in high school. Anil walks us through the power of scaling laws, the shift from training to inference optimization, and the debate among AI’s pioneers about the road to AGI—should we be concerned, or are we still missing key pieces of the puzzle? The conversation also delves into AI’s philosophical implications—could understanding how machines learn help us better understand ourselves? And what challenges remain before AI systems can truly operate with agency? If you enjoy this episode, please subscribe and leave us a review on your favorite podcast platform.

And Then What Happened? | Mark 1 | Week 1 40:56

há 5 years40:56

Years ago, I rekindled a childhood love for storytelling, and got into screenwriting. I wrote a number of different things, from short films, web series, sitcom pilots, and most recently, a feature film script. In fact, my friend Michael and I wrote a sitcom pilot that made it into the top 10% of an international screenwriting competition. Pretty wild, huh? One lesson I learned was to start the scene as late as possible, and to get out of the scene as soon as possible. A great example of this comes from one of the greatest underdog stories of all time: "Tommy Boy." Tommy’s family is gathered for a huge wedding celebration, because Tommy’s father, Tom Callahan, got married that day to a beautiful younger woman. While at the reception party, Tommy’s dad collapsed. Tommy ran over to him, and we see the camera tighten on Tommy’s face. The next shot widens to reveal Tommy and many others in a cemetery, burying his father. A bad screenwriter does what’s called exposition---they add a bunch of filler material that’s really unnecessary. For example, they might have kept the scene going with a 911 call, waiting for the ambulance, and more. Good writers write just enough to reveal what’s important, what helps the reader understand the characters and move the story forward, and nothing more. They take the reader or viewer through snapshots that tell a larger story, and leave us wondering what’s next. We’re starting a brand new series today called "AND THEN WHAT HAPPENED?" And that’s exactly what we are going to do for the next 14 weeks. We’re going to journey together as a church community through the Gospel of Mark. We could almost call this the ADD gospel, because it moves so quickly from one thing to the next. I was talking with a friend this week, and he said, “I hope you don’t take this the wrong way, but are you a little bit ADD?” I laughed and said, “Absolutely, it’s one of my superpowers!” Mark moves very quickly also. In fact, he consistently uses words like 'immediately' and phrases like 'a little while later' to move the story forward. It’s a story that has all of the elements of an incredible story: Character development. Conflict. Power struggles. And redemption...…

Let's bow together. Father, thanks for everything you provide for us, day by day, week by week, month by month, and year by year. Lord, as you know, the way we count time we're entering into a new year and new decade, so we pray for your wisdom, your grace, your guidance. Lord, I thank you for every person who's here today. Lord, wherever we're at, I pray that you might minister to us in a special way. Now, Lord, give us ears to hear your word, minds that are attentive, and hearts that are receptive to you and your Spirit. We ask all of this in the great name of Jesus. Amen. Given that it’s a new year and a new decade, there are a number of people and pundits who are trying to predict what the future will bring. It doesn’t matter whether it involves politics, or the stock market, or the Broncos, lots of people are making predictions about what’s going to happen in 2020 and beyond. But it’s always a dangerous business to try and predict the future, because it almost never turns out the way people thought. To illustrate the point, over the past 50 years various individuals and groups have ventured forth with their visions of the future and I’d like to share just a few of them with you...…

We are finishing up a series we're calling "Brave in the New World." Over the last two months, we've been tackling difficult issues, socially, and trying to figure out what it looks like to live as a follower of Jesus in this new world. How many of you would agree that the world is changing quite rapidly? Actually that's not just a feeling; a sociologist studied our cultural moment. They're saying that things are changing at a more rapid pace than they have ever changed before. That's not just a visceral reaction, that's a reality, according to sociologists. Last week we talked about the Scriptures and science. We talked about this perceived dichotomy, chasm, between what the Scriptures say and what science says. We actually said that you don't need to choose between Scripture and science. You can actually be someone who loves the Bible and loves telescopes and microscopes and that's an okay and a good thing. In fact, that's the way it's designed... Helping people live in the way of Jesus with the heart of Jesus.

I've had a number of people come up to me and say, "We're so sad that you're leaving, Ryan, but are you going to finish this series?" Yes, I am. Today, we're going to jump into the subject of science and the Scriptures; then, next week, yes, on Father's Day, I'm going to be teaching on the issue of sexuality and Brave in the New World and how that all ties together. You're welcome. I promised on Mother's Day, when I taught a message on Evil and Suffering, that I would be equally offensive on Father's Day. Praise be to God, it's all worked out! I want to start with a question: Who would win if the Colorado Rockies played the Denver Broncos? The question you should ask is what are they playing? Before I put money on either team, I want to know what we're playing. While they're all athletes and they're all talented in their own right, they have different specialties, don't they? They have different bents. They have different things that they practice day after day, night after night. They have different things that they're professionals at. I think a lot of times we ask the question: Are you a person of faith or are you a person of science? Who wins---the Rockies or the Broncos? I think we build this false dichotomy that you have to decide whether or not you're a Bible person---which means then that you have to ignore all good science---or whether you're a science person---in our mind that means we have to ignore the Bible. What I'd like to do today is propose to you that maybe there's a third way. Maybe Richard Dawkins, in his book The God Delusion, was wrong, when he argued that you cannot be an intellectual scientific thinker and hold on to religious beliefs. He's wrong. I think the Scriptures actually invite us into that tension. Would you open with me to Matthew 2:1-2; we're going to start our time there this morning...

How many of you like scary movies? I love scary movies; I grew up watching scary movies. My wife and I, on date night, many, many times have gone to the theater to see a scary movie. I don't know, it's something really interesting. One of the most well-known scary movies of all time is a movie that came out in 1973 with a little actress named Linda Blair. The name of the film is called "The Exorcist." The film cost $8 million to make, but since 1973, it's made over $1.2 billion, through box office, DVDs, all those sort of things. Isn't that interesting? It's pretty wild and scary. Normally, when talking about a film as an illustration, I would show you a clip from the film... I do want you to see what this girl looked like. She's a little possessed girl who did some crazy stuff. I didn't want to show you an actual still [shot], so I've hand drawn a representation of what she looked like. {Shows stick figure with Ryan's head!} Now THAT, friends, is scary!! Why do scary movies hold such intrigue with us? Why do scary movies freak us out? I think part of the reason is, psychologically, we watch a movie like this and our brain sort of imagines.... If the writers and actors do a great job, you can get sucked into the story and start imagining that you're there. Or you take it one step further and you start saying, "What would it be like if this really happens?"...…

Ethos is the series we're in. We started last week, and we're going to be talking more about who God has created us and shaped us to be uniquely, some of our values, and our mission. Last week, we said the reason that we're here, the reason that we gather on a Sunday morning, is to help people live in the way of Jesus with the heart of Jesus. We want to help people become apprentices, or learners, or disciples of what it looks like to live more and more in the way of Jesus of Nazareth. Today we're moving into our very first value. I was watching my news feed this week and there was something that kept popping up over and over and over again. It was the hearing Congress was having with Mark Zuckerberg, co-founder of Facebook. Did anybody see the highlights of this? A few parts of it were a little bit comical. Congressmen and women asking Mark Zuckerberg, "Let me get this straight. Facebook is free?" He's like, "Yeah, absolutely free." "100% free?" You could almost see them going, "Oh, we've got you backed into the corner now, buddy." He's like, "Absolutely free." They're like, "Well, how do you make money?" {Gotcha!} He's like, "Well, Congressmen, we run advertisements." Their minds were like BOOM! this is a completely new, revenue-generating model! Right? What they really asked Mark Zuckerberg was how much is Facebook following people? How much do you hear? Mark, where are you guys? When people sign up, do you get access to them at that point in time, or are you in more places than just that?...…

Over the next few weeks, we're going to be talking about what type of community "that brand new world" starts to give birth to. What type of community it starts to form. We're calling this series "Ethos." Ethos is a Greek word that means values, the character of something. It also means things that we believe and things that we dream about, things that we hope for, things that we plead with God for. Over the next eight weeks, we're going to take a step back and go, God, who are you shaping us to become, and what are you shaping us to do, and what are the things that we hold dear, and what are the dreams that we would say, collectively together, we have about the way that you would use this little community of faith to make a massive difference in your world? That's where we're going over the next few weeks. I thought we would start where Jesus starts. That's never a bad idea, right? To ask so, Jesus, where do you start? Jesus, what are you up to? Jesus, how are you at work? We're starting with a pop quiz. What did Jesus talk about most? If we were to read through the gospels and take a note every time Jesus talked about a theme, what would he have talked about most? A. Love B. Heaven/Hell C. The Kingdom of God D. Money Interesting. We have a pretty wide-swath of answers. Let me let Jesus answer that question for us. If you have your Bible, open to Matthew 4:12-17. In Matthew 4, Jesus is just coming on the scene. If you know anything about the gospel of Matthew, Matthew wants to walk us through the birth narrative---tells us how Jesus was born and focuses primarily on Joseph and the courage Joseph had to have. Chapter 3 is Jesus's baptism. Chapter 4 is Jesus getting led out into the desert to be tempted by the enemy. Half way through chapter 4, Jesus comes on the scene to publicly begin teaching and ministering to people, and listen to what he says: When Jesus heard that John had been put in prison, he withdrew to Galilee. Leaving Nazareth, he went and lived in Capernaum, which was by the lake in the area of Zebulun and Naphtali----to fulfill what was said through the prophet Isaiah: "Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali, the Way of the Sea, beyond the Jordon, Galilee of the Gentiles----the people living in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of the shadow of death a light has dawned." From that time on Jesus began to preach, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near..."…

Sometimes when we gather for Easter, we sing songs about life and resurrection, and it can feel a little bit like we're telling an incomplete story. We all know that, in the end, it's coming, SOMEDAY, but TODAY there's some stings, aren't there? Life is awe inspiring, and it can be awful. Life is painful, and it's powerful. Life can be holy in one moment and harrowing in the next. That's the life that we live, isn't it? We have these moments of bliss and then we have the reality of brokenness. If you've ever been on a vacation and if you're anything like me, I'm a time guy. I always want to know how many days until the vacation, how many days are we going to be on vacation, and then once we hit halfway point on the vacation. . . . .anybody with me? I start doing a time clock in my mind of 'this is great but it's going to end.' Halfway point, the day is great. Next day, it clicks over and 'oh no, it's ending!' The beauty of being there is sort of overshadowed by the reality that life's coming again. It's temporary. I think so much of our lives carry with it that in the shadows we hear this voice saying, "It's good, but it's temporary." It's good, but eventually you'll have to say good-bye. It's beautiful, but eventually you'll breathe your last breath...…

We are in a series that we've entitled "4 Days that Changed the World." That's not some sort of spiritual hyperbole, this is the most talked about week, most written about week, most debated week, in the history of the cosmos. On Palm Sunday, when Jesus entered into the streets of Jerusalem, you start a clock ticking from there. One week. It's about .06% of Jesus's life and it's roughly 33% of the gospel narratives. Do you think they thought this was important? Just a little bit. Two weeks ago we talked about what happened on Thursday. On Thursday, Jesus reimagined for us and taught us what love really looks like. He shed his outer garment and got down on his hands and knees and he washed his disciples' feet. It's this picture of what you do when you have power. You don't use it to oppress people and keep people down. You actually leverage your power to lift others up. Last week, we saw that on the cross, on Friday, Jesus offers us forgiveness. He takes on our forsakenness and that he says it's finished. . . .you're reunited with the King of kings and the Lord of lords, God Almighty. If you weren't here last week, I'd encourage you to hop online and watch that video, if you can...…

4 Days that Changed the World | Good Friday: What happened on the cross? | Week 3 38:31

há 7 years38:31

38:31

As a youth pastor, I can remember telling my students a fictitious story about a father and a son. The father was a draw-bridge operator. His son was with him at work, down climbing around in the gears, having a good time. A train was coming. The drawbridge was up. The father had to decide: Am I going to crush my son, kill my son, and save everybody on the train? Or, am I going to let my son live and everybody on the train die? It's a very emotional story and one that stirs the human heart. The punchline was that this was a picture of what happens on the cross, and God decides to kill his son, so that we, humanity, on the train might live. It's emotive. It stirs a response. But is it accurate? Is that what's going on on the cross? Ever since there's been a cross, there's been discussion. Paul would say: For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God [to save]. (Romans 1:16) The reason he's saying 'I am not ashamed' is because there were some people who were ashamed. There was shame to be had. The cross was as much about shaming someone as it was about killing someone. Jesus's cross wasn't the only cross people had seen. It's the cross we talk about, but there's this story that Josephus records. He was a Roman historian. He wrote that in 4 B.C, when Varus, one of the governors of Rome, propped 2000 people on crosses. . . . .ONE day, outside the city of Galilee, and he crucified them all in ONE day. People in Jesus's day would have understood the shame of the cross. They would have understood the pain of the cross. They would have understood the cross in a far better way than we do. They would have struggled just as much with Paul's statement that the cross is the wisdom, and the power, and the glory of God. How could something that was so shameful be so glorious...…

From the moment Jesus arrives in Jerusalem, riding on a donkey, at what we refer to as the Triumphal Entry or Palm Sunday, to the time he rises from the grave is about .06% of his life. Not a lot of time. But if you read through the gospels, that one week encompasses 33% of the gospel narrative. It's one-third of the story that the gospel writers tell. If you put it all together, this one changed the world. Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John felt compelled to tell us about it. From a lot of different angles and a lot of different ways to recount that week, and specifically these 96 hours----Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday---of that week changed the world. There's a way that the world works. If you watched the Academy Awards last week, you know this way. Here's what it looks like: If you're beautiful, if you're wealthy, if you're famous, then people cater to your every need. They put out, literally, a red carpet for you. The more powerful you are, the more prominent you are, the wealthier you are, the more people you have to cater to your every need. I read an article a while back about the way celebrities use their assistants. Christian Bale has an assistant who, as he walks down that red carpet, actually smells his armpits to see if he has B.O. Madonna has an assistant that wakes up every hour (six times during the night) to get Madonna a cold glass of water. She also has somebody who goes into the restroom before her with Lysol and disinfectant, and wipes them down from top to bottom before she uses it. Mariah Carey, who is a notorious diva, has somebody who holds her drink for her while she drinks out of the straw. She has somebody who washes her hair for her. She has somebody who walks in front of her so she doesn't trip while wearing her high heels. That's pretty impressive! Ceelo Green has somebody in his entourage who is responsible for dabbing the sweat off of his brow. Can you imagine being THAT dude? Where do you sign up for that? Or, Prince Charles. Prince Charles has somebody who irons his shoelaces before he puts them into his shoes. . . . .and it shows! He also has somebody who undresses him after his day and puts him in his pjs before he goes to bed. Prince Charles walks in, falls down on his bed, somebody takes all his clothes off and puts his pjs on. Frank Sinatra had a butler who wash his boxers (his underwear), by hand, and followed him around to straighten his toupee in case it got off...…

" We are starting a new series today that we are calling "4 Days That Changed the World." Sometimes a walk has a way of changing things. I did a wedding yesterday --- those doors in the back of the worship center opened, and a bride walked down the aisle to be received by her groom. Anecdotally, it was a 'Cook' marrying a 'Hunter.' By the end of the wedding, it was two had become one. Some walks change everything. March 21, 1965: Martin Luther King, Jr., and a number of his civil rights workers with him, left from the city of Selma, Alabama to march to Montgomery, to fight for the right for African-Americans to vote. They'd been turned back two times already, but this time they had the backing of President Johnson. He had given his support to the march. Instead of having armed guards there to turn them back, they were there to protect the marchers as they embarked on a 54-mile walk. When they got to Montgomery, Dr. King gave one of his most famous speeches. It was summarized by the phrase "How Long, Not Long." In that speech he said, "Like an idea whose time has come, not even the marching of mighty armies can halt us. We are moving to the land of freedom." On August 6, 1965, African-Americans were given the right to vote in this country. Some marches change everything. It was March 29, AD 33. Jesus of Nazareth got on the back of a colt to ride into Jerusalem. We call it 'The Triumphal Entry.' It started the clock ticking on a week that has changed the world that we live in. Maybe in more ways than we recognize, that week changed everything! The reason you have Sundays off as part of your weekend? It's because Jesus rose from the grave on a Sunday. It used to be that followers of Christ, until Christianity was the religion in the Roman empire, would go to church before work, early in the morning, before the sun came up, to worship, then go to work. Because Sunday was just like every other day in the week. THIS changed everything! We now have a weekend. It changed more than that. Over the next few messages, we're going to wrestle with these four days, these 96 hours that changed the world. My hope is that over the next week, the Spirit of God invites you into this story to know it better, but maybe knowing IT better, we would be known. That we might not just regurgitate it and the facts of what happened. We're going to wrestle with questions like: Why did Jesus die? Why did Jesus have to die? Who killed Jesus? Who did Jesus "pay off" for the debt of sin? What was that all about? Please come back. We're going to wrestle with a new type of influence. . . .an influence of love. We're going to talk about 'he descended to the dead' or 'he descended to hell.' What does that mean? On Easter morning, we're going to celebrate the fact that what Jesus does on Easter morning changes definitively the world we live in. It's a march that changes everything...."…

47:24

Good morning. We are on the last Sunday of an eight-week series, where we've been studying the letters that Jesus writes, through the Apostle John, to the churches in the book of Revelation (chapters 2 and 3). This final letter is written to the church at Laodicea. Open your Bible to Revelation 3:14. As we've done in each letter, we've given the church that Jesus is writing to a title. I've tried to summarize who they are, their ethos, their DNA as a church. This letter I'm entitling as the letter to "Independent People." Some form of independence is really good. When my kids move out of my house, my hope is that they're independent, which means they don't come back and live with me again. If they do, they'll be welcomed back with open arms and rent to pay. But some forms of independence aren't that healthy. Some forms of independence actually prevent us from getting where we want to go. I saw a Pepsi commercial a while back that I think summarized it well with a little phrase that you'll hear repeated throughout the commercial --- I'm good! {Commercial shows accidents and injuries to someone, but they're "good."} Have you ever been there: Your arms are full of grocery bags and someone says, "Hey, can I help you take those to the car?" and you respond with, "I'm good." Or maybe, if you're married, and men you may be able to relate to this, and you're sharing with your spouse the ailment you're trying to walk through. She says, "You should probably get that checked out. There's a whole branch of professionals that deal with sickness." Most guys respond with. . . . ."I'm good." {My wife says, "Then don't complain about it anymore, if you're not willing to go and get it checked out."} Or. . . ."Do you need help with that problem in school that you're wrestling with?" "I'm good, I'm good." The marriage is sorta getting on the rocks, but. . . . ."We're good." I think all of us have something in us that we rely on and in moments of trepidation, in moments of fear, we resort to that and we go, "I'm good." I'm a hard worker. . . . .I'm good. I know how to make money. . . . .I'm good. I've got this web of relationships; we've got a strong family; I've got people that care about me. . . . .I'm good. In 1875, the British poet, William Ernest Henley, wrote a famous poem. At the end of it, he wrote this stanza: "I am the master of my fate / I am the captain of my soul." Essentially he goes, "I'm good. I'm good." If you're familiar at all with the Biblical narrative, the story that as followers of Jesus we would say that we find ourselves in, in the very beginning of the Scriptures, you have this incident between Adam and Eve, who God creates perfectly and places in a garden, naked, in order to be in relationship with Him. There's a serpent that comes in and says listen, I know God said you can't eat from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, but you should eat from that so that you can become like God, knowing good and evil. The relationship that Adam and Eve are designed to have with God is one of dependence. One where they run to Him, one where they go to Him. This movement towards this tree is a movement of independence. God, we don't need you. God, we can figure this out on our own. God, we're good, thank you very much.…

" William Cimillo, on March 28, 1947, woke up and went to work like he did every other day. He was a bus driver in New York City. This day was a little bit different. William started out on his normal route, and instead of making his first stop in New York City, he just kept driving. He went to New Jersey and had a sandwich in a café for lunch, then he just kept driving more. Driving and driving. Eventually he got to Washington, D.C., in his RTD bus. He got out, took a look at the White House and decided to keep going. He traveled down the East Coast, from New York City to Hollywood, Florida, where eventually he ran out of money and gas. He went for a night swim, camped that evening, and in the morning called his "former" employer. He told them where he was and what he needed. They sent the FBI to come and investigate---it was a state bus. No one was able to drive the bus, so William had to drive the bus back to New York for them. He did. By the time he got there, word had spread about his little meltdown. He was so popular that he was too popular to actually fire, so they had to keep him on staff. They asked him what had happened, and he said, "I was just tired of it all. I felt like a squirrel in a cage, just running around and around, and I guess it got the better of me." I think he was greeted with such fanfare when he got back to New York because EVERYBODY has thought about doing the same thing. Haven't we? We've been on our way to work or an appointment and thought, "Heads: California, tails: Carolina." Right? It's just too much. I think a lot of our lives we feel like....{Ryan blows up a balloon}....we're full and life's good. Sometimes, because that's the case at points in our life, we expect that it'll be the case at every point in our life. But we all know that that's not true, don't we? There's things that we walk through that sort of take the air out of us a little bit. Some of you, in the last few weeks, have gotten a diagnosis from the doctor that you weren't hoping to get and. . . . .{Ryan releases air from the balloon} it's taken the air out of you. Some of you in this room are single parents. You're working and holding together a family {Ryan lets out more air from the balloon}, and it feels like you're on life support. Like the waves are beating against your boat and when is it going to stop. Some of you have some things that have happened in your past. Maybe it's abuse or maybe it's bad decisions you've made, and anytime you let your mind relax, instead of disciplining yourself not to think about that. . . . .{Ryan releases more air out of the balloon} that's what you think about. I don't know about you, but it can feel like {Ryan releases remaining air out of balloon and it's deflated} the life that we were suppose to live that is full, and meaningful, and vibrant, is elusive. We live in a day and time where we are more disconnected from the things that fill our soul than any generation in any time has ever been. We are entertained, but we're not enriched. We're busy, but we are not full. Our schedules are jammed packed, but our souls are on life support. We can look at a picture like that and go, "That looks about right." Especially after a week like, as a nation, we've walked through. We can go, "It feels like we're running on empty." It's a condition we would call weariness, or a tiredness of soul, not just body, but soul, where we know that if we cut things out of our schedule, it doesn't solve the problem. If we go on vacation, it's still there...."…

" The words from God to this nation were "keep going." But they were words that were built on a story. They weren't just said in a vacuum. See, this nation of roughly 2,000 people found themselves in a valley, and they heard those words from God, but BEFORE that, they'd seen the hand of God. It was God who'd led them out of 400 years of slavery into freedom, but he led them to this place where they were on this peninsula. Water surrounding them on three sides. Miraculously, the Red Sea parted and they walked through on dry ground. But he didn't stop there. Every morning when they woke up, there was a little bit of bread they called manna that was lying on the ground, just enough to get them through the day, and the next day it was there again. Sometimes, quail came in, so they got a little meat in their diet, but not regularly. They had just enough. They were in the wilderness and walking through the desert and they had no water and God told Moses to hit a rock with a stick, and the rock turned into a well and water just started flowing from it. They'd seen unbelievable things: their clothes didn't wear out, their shoes stayed good, they saw God's gracious hand of provision all along the way. He said to them, "Keep going. Keep going. You're out of slavery, you're in the desert, but I'm leading you to the Promised Land. Don't stop here." They were sent to spy out this land. A land that they found was flowing with milk and honey. They brought back grapes for people to taste. Evidently they were amazing grapes! They said, "Yeah, there's milk and honey. It's unbelievable! It's wonderful!" God said, "Keep going." But they said, "There's also giants in the land." I don't think you understand, God, or maybe you do, but we're sort of like grasshoppers and they're sort of BIG and if you really wanted us to keep going, you should have made us a little bit stronger. So they stopped. A people created for the Promised Land found wandering in the desert for 40 years. Because God wouldn't force them to take that step. He gave them every resource they needed; it was right in front of them and they said, "No, thank you." People created for the vast horizon, for the expansive landscape, for the milk and honey of the Promised Land, SETTLED for the desert...."…

"Do we have any foodies in the house? I've changed, dramatically, the way that I've been eating the last couple of months, but for some reason I've become addicted to watching travel food shows, where people go to other countries and eat what I can't eat right now. My favorite new show is called "Somebody Feed Phil," about a guy named Phil Rosenthal, the creator of "Everybody Loves Raymond." He travels around and experiences the cuisine from all of these different cities from around the world. What's really interesting is that he bears a remarkable resemblance to an older Ryan Paulson. {Shows picture} He (Phil) goes and explores all these different cultures and different foods. I love that too. If I'm traveling and I go to a city, the first thing I do when I get to my hotel is to open up my favorite app, which is YELP. I look to see 'what is this city known for?' A lot of larger cities are known for food or drink. If I say Chicago, what comes to mind, food-wise? Pizza. Hot dogs. New York? Pizza. Seattle? Coffee. Philly? Philly cheese steaks. Highlands Ranch? {Laughter. . . . Chick-fil-a} Have you ever thought what your city was known for? Have you ever thought about what your family was known for? Have you ever thought about what your church was known for? In the last several weeks, we've been in this series called "Postcards From the Edge," and we've been journeying through Revelations 2 and 3. These are the seven letters to the seven churches from Jesus through John to the churches and to us. We've been learning some real unique things about those cities. Our hope isn't that we have just a bunch of knowledge about these cities, but that we could learn about the city and the church and figure out what does God want to say to the church at South today....?"…

" Over the Christmas and New Year holiday, my family and I had the chance to get away and we went up to a cabin in the mighty metropolis of Hot Sulfur Springs. My whole family was there and we had a great time. We had planned this pancake breakfast for New Year's Day. There was no shortage of texts messages back and forth about the kind of pancakes we were going to eat. Oatmeal pancakes. Banana pancakes. We got up on New Year's Day with sleep in our eyes and deprivation in our souls because we had stayed up past midnight. We made the pancakes and were keeping them warm in the oven. We started putting them out when someone in my family asks, "Did anybody bring the syrup?" Here's the question: What do you do when you have a pancake breakfast prepared and you forget the syrup? Here's three options: 1) You try to make syrup out of something else. 2) You don't eat the pancakes. 3) You eat the pancakes plain. {Ryan has congregation discuss it.} In my opinion, number three is the only non-option. You CANNOT eat pancakes plain. They taste disgusting! You don't notice it when you put syrup on it, because syrup makes it all better. It covers a multitude of sins. The only reason we have pancakes is so that we can get syrup into our mouth! I want to talk to you about syrup this morning. About the one thing that changes everything---with it everything falls into place and without it, nothing else matters. Open your Bible to Revelation 2. You'll remember that we're starting a series and journeying through the first few chapters of Revelation, where Jesus is writing, through the Apostle John, to specific churches in his day. He's giving them encouragement, he's writing to the context that they're in uniquely, and he's got a word, both of commendation, of correction, of instruction for the churches he writes to. Listen as he begins these letters with a letter to the church at Ephesus: To the angel of the church in Ephesus write: 'The words of him who holds the seven stars in his right hand, who walks among the seven golden lampstands. Remember, last week we saw Jesus lifted up, we saw Jesus reigning above, we saw Jesus advocating for, and we saw Jesus walking among the churches, and John wants to reiterate that as he writes to the church at Ephesus......"…

"This Christmas I got my wife an Instant Pot. It's a modern twist on the old pressure cooker. It essentially works the same way----the top seals on there pretty tight. Inside there are two things that happen: heat that starts to buildup and steam that is released. You can put in a whole frozen chicken and in three minutes it'll pop out to be dinner for you! It's awesome! Maybe not, don't try that at home. It's a little nerve wracking with this 'bomb' you have in your kitchen. We turn it on and my wife, Kelly, backs up, and all of the kids have their biking helmets on when she's cooking with it. It's a little bit crazy. I think sometimes life feels a little bit like an Instant Pot, doesn't it? It presses in on us, and the heat gets turned up, and the steam gets released. Sometimes in those seasons we have questions for each other, we have questions for God. We ask God things like: God, do you see? God, do you care? God, are you going to do anything? God, in this situation that I'm walking through right now, what do you want me to do? Sometimes the pressure situations can seem small......it's a child that won't behave, or the job situation that's not working out exactly the way you wanted it to. But sometimes it feels like you're just in the thick of it and the temperature keeps going up and up and up and up. The news from the doctor isn't good. The relationship is falling apart. It just feels like the pressure is just building. What do we do in situations like that? I sometimes think that as the Church, we're not good at talking about lament and grief. Some seasons of life just aren't fun. Can we admit that, even though we're in church? Sometimes it feels like the pressure is just getting turned up...."…

43:39

"The year was about AD 90, around two decades before the temple that stood in Jerusalem had been absolutely leveled. Emperor Titus, along with his Roman army, came in and absolutely leveled the central spot of worship in Judaism. In doing so, they started to remove even the very soul and heart of that religion. They've never worshipped the same since that building was destroyed. The Apostle John, at this point in time, is a friend of Jesus. He's one of the only disciples still alive. In fact, most people would say he's the ONLY disciple still alive, and he finds himself in exile. He finds himself on this little island off the coast of what's now modern-day Turkey. It's about 24 miles from the shore. He's there as a prisoner of the empire of Rome. Rome, in AD 90, is ruled by a man by the name of Domitian. Domitian was the very first emperor that required that he was worshipped as both god and savior. John refused to bow his knee. Can you imagine standing before the emperor and being required to bow down to worship him as god? John, this friend of Jesus, the one who cared for Jesus's mom after Jesus was crucified, risen . . . the one who leaned up against Jesus during the last supper meal he celebrated with his disciples. . . .this John. This John refused to bow his knee. Tradition says that Domitian got a pot of boiling oil and dumped it on the Apostle John to try to kill him. It sort of backfired on him though. The people there that were witnessing this 'murder' actually turned and started to follow Jesus because they saw that it didn't affect John in the way it should have. Since he couldn't kill him, Domitian thought he'd put John on an island with other criminals....."…

ALL I AM: Trinkets and Treasures – Genesis 25:29-34 47:29

há 9 years47:29

47:29

December 26, 1919, a decision was made that definitively shaped two organizations for the next 85 years. Harry Frazee sold one of his best players. His name was George Herman Ruth---you might know him as "The Babe." For $125,000, the owner of the Boston Red Sox, sold the rights of George Herman Ruth (the Babe) to the dreaded New York Yankees. For the next 85 years, the Boston Red Sox lived under "The Curse of the Bambino." Babe Ruth, at the time, was a pitcher, but he started dabbling in hitting and the year before he was traded in 1919, he hit 29 home runs, which wasn't all that bad for a pitcher, even back then. Once he was traded to the Yankees, he started to play every day. The first year he played for the Yankees, he hit 54 home runs and drove in 135 RBIs. He followed that up, in his 1921 campaign, with 59 home runs and 106 RBIs. He went on to be one of the most prolific baseball players of all time. He took the Yankees to the World Series seven times and won it four times. Hit 714 home runs, hit .342 over the course of his career and was elected to the Hall of Fame with more than a 95% election rate. He was a pretty decent player it turned out! You read back through it and you go well, why in the world....Harry Frazee, why in the world would you sell the rights....he didn't even trade him, he just said I need cash, that's what I need. I need you to give me $125K and you have the rights to the Babe. Why in the world would he do that?? If you go back and read about Harry Frazee, he was not only the president and CEO of the Boston Red Sox, but he also dabbled in Broadway theatrical productions. Those weren't doing so hot at the time and he needed cash. So he traded the Babe for $125,000 in cash in a loan for $300,000 and for 85 years it haunted the Boston Red Sox. He made a decision that was based on the immediate and he failed to see the way the long-term might play out.…

ALL I AM: Family of Promise Genesis 25:19-28 As a kid I used to love to hear my grandparents tell stories. The grandparents on my mom's side of the family (my grandfather specifically) had some stories to tell. I don't how many of them were true, but they were all intriguing, at least the first time around. He used to share about his time in war in the South Pacific where his boots would have been wet for months on end. He loved to share about meeting my grandmother in his parents' flower shop. She walked in the door, at the ripe old age of 18, and they got married. He told stories about working for an engineering firm that was instrumental in landing one of the first shuttles on the moon. He claims that his name is on a plaque on the moon. I haven't been able to verify this, but we can only assume that it's true. My grandmother had some beautiful stories, too. She told us.....Kelly and I were standing in her hallway one time looking at a picture of her passport when she came over from Germany as a grade-school girl. She told us about fleeing Germany when Hitler was starting to rise to power and how her father had the intuition to see this coming. He loaded his entire family on a boat, sailed across the Atlantic and got to the United States of America. What my grandmother remembered about that event was that both literally and figuratively my great-grandfather refused to look back to Germany after he left. On that boat, head straight forward, saying, "We are not looking back. We are not going to be a part of that."…

WALKING IN GLORY Romans 6:4-5 January 30, 2009, at 11:37, a nurse at Palomar Hospital handed me a baby. My baby! Ethan--6 pounds, 10 ounces, little tiny guy, but as she handed him to me, I had this overwhelming feeling that my life would never be the same. I'd fallen in love in a way I never knew I could and I also sensed that although he weighed 6 pounds, 10 ounces, he actually weighed a little bit more than that on my heart and my life. We put him in the car seat a few days later, after those few glorious days where the nurses changed his diapers and made sure that we didn't kill him. It was wonderful. We got in the car, strapped him in the car seat, started driving home. The drive home where you are going 10 mph in a 35 mph zone and you're wondering why everybody else is in such a hurry. I'm driving along and going my speed (slow) and people are honking at me and waving at me with only one finger. We walked over the threshold of the door; I helped Kelly get into the house. I had Ethan under my arm. When we closed the door behind us, the silence was almost deafening. It was as though sirens should have been going off somewhere in the universe to alert people that we had absolutely no clue what we were doing. I had this feeling like is this a joke. Is somebody going to come through the door and say we know you have no clue?! I can remember holding this little kid---he weighed 6 pounds, 10 ounces---and he might as well weighed 1000 pounds. The weight I felt in that moment was just.....it redefined the way that I looked at life.…

THE LORD'S PRAYER: Kneeling for Battle Matthew 6:13 48:27

há 9 years48:27

48:27

THE LORD'S PRAYER: Kneeling for Battle Matthew 6:13 The year was 1720, the date June 21st. The pirate, Bartholomew Roberts, was just about to sail in to the Trepassey Bay in Newfoundland, the easternmost part of the United States of America. As he got ready to enter that bay, he noticed that there were twenty-two merchant ships lined up around the coast of the bay. In that day, merchant ships often carried artillery because there were others, like Black Bart, sailing the open seas, ready to take them down and take them for all that they were worth. Black Bart, or Bartholomew Roberts, was one of the pirates who came up with, what we know now to be, the "Jolly Roger" flag. It was a way to send a message that the pirates used. They would simply hoist up this flag and it was an invitation to any ships that could see it "hey, if you're willing to hoist up your white flag and surrender, we're willing to not kill you." They were trying to negotiate. Bartholomew Roberts and his crew pulled into the Trepassey Bay in Newfoundland, June 21, 1720, surrounded by 22 ships in this bay and they, slowly but surely, hoisted the "Jolly Roger" flag. And every single one of the twenty-two ships in that bay, slowly but surely, hoisted up their white flag of surrender. Every single one. The ironic part is that if you go back and read about this account, together for sure, but even independently, many of those ships that gave up without a fight had enough resources onboard to give the good pirate, Black Bart, a run for his money. But they refused to even fight the battle. They had enough to win and yet refused to fight.…

THE LORD'S PRAYER: Releasing the Records Matthew 6:12 Have you ever tried to think back and figure out what your earliest memory is? Not one that you've seen in pictures or stories that you've heard, but genuinely the thing from your past that's the very first thing that you can remember. For me, I was five years old. It was my birthday and I had been given a Big Wheel for my birthday. Huge wheel in the front, two mini wheels on the back ---- I was in love! I begged my parents to let me take it on an inaugural spin around the block. I was ready for my birthday party; I was dressed in a red-and-white shirt that had horizontal stripes on it. I had red shorts on and on the left pocket was a little green alligator. I begged my parents mercilessly; I now know where my seven-year-old gets it from. They finally gave in. I took my red and yellow Big Wheel on a spin around the block. I went tearing out of the driveway, made a left hand turn, made another left hand turn, another left, another left and I was about to make my final left hand turn on the final stretch and I'm not exactly sure what happened. Other than the little wheel on the back got caught in the groove that attached the curb to the sidewalk. The next thing I knew, I was lying on my face, in the gutter, covered in mud. I can remember getting back on my Big Wheel and making that final left hand turn and heading home. I pulled up the driveway and put the Big Wheel off to the side and stood there, not exactly sure what was going to greet me when I knocked on the door. It was the first time in my life that I can remember feeling shame. It was the first time in my life I can remember failing. The first time in my life where, regardless of anybody else's standard for me, I didn't live up to my standard for myself. Can you remember the first time you felt that way?…

If you've been with us over the past few weeks, you know we've been walking through a series on the Lord's prayer. If you're new with us, welcome, we're really glad you're here. We're going to be diving into one of the stanzas in this prayer and trying to ask God God, what do you want us to hear from this portion of this model prayer that you gave your disciples to pray -- a way for them to interact with you. I grew up in a church that was sorta "high church." It was a Presbyterian church and the pastor wore a robe every Sunday when he preached. I think it was because he didn't want to think about what he wore under it. Every time he prayed....he had this sorta booming voice....his name was Ben Patterson and every time he prayed, you just felt like the Shekinah glory of the Lord filled the room. I can remember as a kid sitting there, going I don't think I'll ever be able to pray like that. I don't think I'll ever be able to talk to God in a way that I really feel like he hears me, because I don't know that many big words and I don't know how to do that and I don't know how to enter in..... I can remember feeling almost a little discouraged by prayer as a young kid because I felt so distant from the way it was suppose to be done.

BREATH OF HEAVEN: The One Thing that Changes Everything - John 8:31-32 & Romans 13:8-9 A number of years ago, I got into road biking and I never thought I'd be a road biker, but my wife got me a bike for Christmas. I was looking for another way to get out and enjoy beautiful Colorado and, indeed, over the last few years, I've really grown to love the sport of road biking. I had a friend who invited me to go on a bike ride with him, sort of spontaneously. He called me and at the time my wife was hosting a party and there were a number of women over at our house. I said yes to him. I was biding my time and hoping that by the time it was for me to go, they'd be gone. I went upstairs and got ready. It came time for me to go. I had to walk downstairs through my living room to get into my garage. The living room is where all these ladies were. I had to go downstairs dressed head-to-toe in full-on spandex in order to get into my garage! I had always been the guy that looked at others in full spandex and thought, "I'm never going there! I'm never doing THAT!" until I went on a bike ride not wearing them. It was not fun! I realized the moment I got on the bike WHY everybody that rides spandex head-to-toe! I joined that club. It turned out....the thing that looked confining at first, actually brought freedom. The thing that looked like it was going to be uncomfortable and it looked like there's no way I'm ever going there, actually was the thing that allowed me to ride way better with way more comfort than I ever would have imagined.…

BREATH OF HEAVEN:The Point is a Person John 5:39-40 & Hebrews 1:1-3 BREATH OF HEAVEN:The Point is a Person John 5:39-40 & Hebrews 1:1-3 My wife, Kelly, and I met on a backpacking trail a number of years ago. I felt like I made quite the impression on her. Things had gone well on that trail. I was convinced, if I could talk her into it, that I was going to marry her. I wasn’t sure she was as committed as I was, nonetheless, she had thrown out on the trail…if you ever want to come to Durango and spend some time and hang out, it’s an open invitation. I filed that away in the very front of my file cabinet. We got off the trail after spending a week together and I waited all of two days to call her. I called her house. This is back in the day where phones were attached to the wall. You had to call and actually talk to somebody’s parents in order to ask them out on a date!!! Her dad answered the phone. He was a football coach for 20 years in Durango. He said hello. I answered, “Hi! This is Ryan. Is Kelly there?” I hear him yell to Kelly, “Kelly, Ryan’s on the phone.” Kelly yells back, “Ryan who??” Evidently I didn’t make as great an impression as I thought. I asked, “Does the offer still stand to come down and visit you?” She said, “Yes, absolutely.” This is also before you could plug an address in your phone and it would tell you how to get there. I got a map and looked up Durango to figure out how to get there. She said, “When you get into town, it’s basically one street in town, you’re going to make a left at Mustang and then you’re going to weave up and you’ll eventually get to where I live.” She gave me the directions. I asked my parents if I could borrow one of the cars. They said they were using both of the them that weekend. So I went out and bought a car! Got in my car and drove…..I said—-I’d seen Goodwill Hunting a few times—“I gotta go see about a girl!” I get in my car and drive to Durango. I drive all the way through main street and I don’t see Mustang. That’s the street I’m looking for….Mustang. I come back through and still don’t see it. I do that a number of times. Kelly was at work at this point in time and there was no way to call her at work. I go back through again and think I didn’t just buy a car to come down to see about a girl for it to end up like this. As I’m driving back through, I see a gas station named “The Mustang.” I realized that although Kelly is brilliant and beautiful, she is geographically and directionally challenged!! I realized that if I have the wrong goal, I’ll never end up in the right destination!…

EXILES: EXALTED EXILES 1 Peter 5:5-14 When I was in college, I worked with an organization called Young Life. I mentored a number of students and the only time that I had free and the time they were willing to meet was real early in the morning. One morning, I got out of bed, my feet hit the ground at about 5:45 am. The meeting started at 6:00 am. This was not uncommon. It was about a 13-minute drive to where we were meeting. I had two minutes to get dressed...more than enough time. My feet hit the ground, I pulled on a pair of pants, a shirt, a sweatshirt, popped in my car and drove to the cafe we were meeting at. I walked in and we quickly got a seat because nobody else was that crazy to be there at that time. I walked to our little booth and sat down and opened the menu. A waitress came by and instead of asking us what our order would be, she came carrying a sock! She didn't say anything. She just walked up to our table, stood there and held up the sock. I was thinking to myself that I hadn't looked at the whole menu, but I didn't know where THAT fell on the menu. What's the deal? She just stood there holding the sock. She said, "When you walked in this morning, this sock fell out of your pant leg." Don't judge me! You've been there before. I took off my pants the night before, all in one fell swoop because I don't want to waste time before I fell in bed.....took it all off, socks included, and the sock got pinned in the leg. As I walked into the cafe, the sock slowly worked its way out, fell down, creating a nice thing to wipe your feet on as you walk into said cafe. The waitress felt it necessary to come in and deliver back my sock, thank you very much, waitress. I looked at her going I had no idea I was carrying that. I had no idea that was attached to me. I think the Apostle Peter, as he writes to this group of five churches---home churches, probably, in the first century---here's what he wants to do today. He wants to walk up to them and go you're carrying this, but you don't know you are. You're carrying this. This is something that's attached to you, but you have absolutely no clue. Here's the thing: They're not alone. The thing that Peter's going to talk to the first-century church about today is what he wants to talk to us about also. I think there's some things that you're carrying; there's some things that I'm carrying and unless we have God-given eyes to see, I think we could easily overlook the fact that most of us in this room are carrying this. I think Jesus' posture towards us this morning is.....I think He wants to come up and say hey, I'm not sure if you're aware that THIS is a part of your life.…

Acts 20:1-38 – The Apostle Paul planted 14 churches that we know about, penned 13 letters through the leading of the Holy Spirit that are included in our New Testament, and traveled over 10,000 miles on various missionary journeys. What was it that allowed Paul to keep going through all that he encountered? He answers that question for us in Acts 20 by telling Ephesians elders what he built his life and his ministry upon.…
