213 - His Heart is Never Off Them (Revisited)

The Quiet Place with Sherri Youngward ·

2025/06/08

I collected some previous episodes centered around the Gospel of John. I liked the idea of having them all in one place, and thought you might too. John 10:11I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.Charles Spurgeon wrote:"Jesus stands in the same relationship to his people as a shepherd does to his flock. He owns his people; every one of them belong to him. He prizes them because they are his—sets a value on each of them. He takes care of them, remembering

I collected some previous episodes centered around the Gospel of John. I liked the idea of having them all in one place, and thought you might too. John 6:28-29Therefore they said to Him, “What shall we do, so that we may work the works of God?” Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He has sent.”Every time I read this chapter in John, I lean in when I get to the words, “What shall we do, so that we may work the works of God?” OK, tell me what to do.I

John 20:31 But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.John made it perfectly clear why he wrote his Gospel—that we would believe who Jesus is and have life in His Name. In this episode, we will explore the life we are promised. John 10:10-11 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.

Psalm 84:11–12For the LORD God is a sun and shield;the LORD bestows favor and honor.No good thing does he withholdfrom those who walk uprightly.O LORD of hosts,blessed is the one who trusts in you!Last week, we looked at the authors of Psalm 84—the sons of Korah. This week, we’ll look at the Psalm itself. I went back and revisited some thoughts from an earlier episode, as well as adding new thoughts and commentary. Paraphrasing F.B.

Psalm 84:1-2To the Chief Musician. On an instrument of Gath. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.How lovely is Your tabernacle,O LORD of hosts!My soul longs, yes, even faintsFor the courts of the LORD;My heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.Though Psalm 84 has long been a favorite of mine, this is the first time I ever looked into who the (human) authors were — the “sons of Korah.” Now that I know more about them, this Psalm is all the sweeter. What a beautiful shift of heart and reputation they

Luke 10:38-42Now it happened as they went that He entered a certain village; and a certain woman named Martha welcomed Him into her house. And she had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus’ feet and heard His word. But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she approached Him and said, “Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Therefore tell her to help me.”And Jesus answered and said to her, “Martha, Martha, you are worried and troubled about many things. But one

Were every one of them to be written, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would be written.If way back when John wrote this, the world could not contain all the books filled with stories of what Jesus had done, think about now. Think about all the stories since then. Think about your own life and the volumes it contains. I

Philippians 4:6–7Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.Recently as unexpected rain pattered on my window, I noticed the birds still sang away.Inspired by the birds, I slid my window open and recorded a song for you.

PSALM 34 A psalm of David, regarding the time he pretended to be insane in front of Abimelech, who sent him away.In this episode, I will begin by reading the backstory to Psalm 34. This is when David (to escape captivity and punishment) pretended to be insane. Many scholars believe Psalm 34 was written in the cave where David hid.It is impossible to count how many Psalms, songs, stories, and sermons have bloomed from hardship. This Psalm only increases in beauty by remembering what David had gone

Psalm 42:1As the deer pants for the water brooks,So pants my soul for You, O God.Charles Spurgeon wrote:"As man can bear hunger much longer than he can bear thirst, he may continue without food for days but not without drink. So the psalmist mentions the thirstiest creature and the most ardent of the natural passions. He does not say, 'So I long for my former grandeur,' or, 'So I long for my friend,' but, 'So I long for you, God.' His soul had only one longing, one

Matthew 28:8 So they departed quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to tell his disciples. Mary the mother of Jesus and Mary Magdalene came to the tomb after the crucifixion of their Savior, son, and friend. Their dear Jesus. After seeing the angel, they had both “fear and great joy.”Have you ever had fear and great joy? Or grief, sickness, weakness, unidentified weirdness, and great joy? It did me good to remember that, by faith, I can lean into joy, even in tough times. I hope you

Psalm 33:4-5 For the word of the LORD holds true,and everything he does is worthy of our trust.He loves whatever is just and good,and his unfailing love fills the earth.Speaking of the last line ("and his unfailing love fills the earth"), FB Meyer wrote:"The Psalmist means that there is no spot in it where the traces and footprints of God’s love may not be discerned, if only the eyes and the heart are opened."In this episode, I will meander through Psalm 33 and point out some of those traces and

Whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.In this episode, I will explore what it means to humble yourself, including a story about my first object lesson on the topic. It involved my eighteen-year-old self, borrowing my mom’s Gran Torino, and facing a disgruntled cashier. You’ll have to listen. One thing is for sure, God meets us in the humble place.

Matthew 15:32-33Now Jesus called His disciples to Himself and said, “I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now continued with Me three days and have nothing to eat. And I do not want to send them away hungry, lest they faint on the way.”Then His disciples said to Him, “Where could we get enough bread in the wilderness to fill such a great multitude?”(Spoiler alert) In the end, Jesus multiplied bread and fish, enough to feed thousands of men, women and children.

Matthew 11:25-26 At that time Jesus said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for this is what you were pleased to do. I recently asked the women in our Bible Reading Group what came to their minds as they thought of a good father. Some had great fathers, some didn’t have any relationship with a human father whatsoever — but everyone can make a list of what a good father

I have many stories of how God brought light in the midst of my darkness. Often that light is as delicate as candlelight. Just a flicker of hope. In this episode, I will share some recent memories and a personal story of how God brought light to my darkness in a most unexpected way. If you would like to support this podcast with a

2025/01/26

Psalm 12:6 The words of the LORD are pure words; As silver tried in a furnace on the earth, refined seven times. In Psalm 12, David expresses the drastic contrast between the fallen words of double-hearted people and the pure words of God. “Refined” describes the purifying process of a refiner, who heats metal, takes away the dross, and is left with a pure substance. Have you ever crossed a creekbed and searched for secure stones to stand on so you won’t fall in? My journal is filled with
