HOWC Podcast

Pastor, Daniel Wright, and teacher, Jacob Leger host a NEW podcast series (available on all major podcast platforms) from Heart of Worship Church Media & Wright Studios, LLC, called, "Rightly Dividing" - Learning to Navigate Truth in a World of Opinions. The goal is to unbiasedly seek after truth weighing out all available evidence, and hearing from the Holy Spirit personally on ALL "hard topics"...

Sometimes we can have all the pieces right and be frustrated that it still does not work, because we have the order wrong. A victorious life in Christ can be like this, we can't run before we can walk. We can't produce fruit before we have been planted. We can't get grace without faith. The Order matters. 

A look at Abraham's journey to see that what he walked out in faith, his children would later live out by grace! Every step of your journey matters and may effect generations long after you're gone. So take your journey serious.

Often times in scripture we see that the seemingly simple, mundane, unimportant things of life, as we follow God, often turn out to be the very place of preparation for greatness. Joseph, Moses, David, many in scripture experienced this and we will also, as we walk with Jesus and are taught through experience in our own personal wildernesses, how to rule in promise. 

A look at the Story of the Widow's Jar to see how, and why God blessed this woman and her family in the midst of a time of national famine.

There is a shift in the financial arenas and positions of leadership that has begun and will continue to solidify more obviously in the coming months. There are times when God over turns some and sets up some for a purpose. We see this in the story of Joseph (among others in the scriptures) There are seasons of testing and preparation that precede these unlikely sudden changes. There are biblical...

Sometimes God quiets the storm and sometimes He quiets you with great peace as He causes you to see the necessity of some of the storms that we are facing. We pray for God to send the rain, we ask for fruitful harvest seasons. Sometimes what brings those things can seem uneasy for a moment, but if you know where God is going with it, you can have peace in the midst of it and rest in the boat... li...

The Bible is full of examples of God's miraculous prevision. The provision came from heaven but it was distributed through men and women that God knew He could trust not to horde it, because that even in their own lack, they had been abundantly generous! They gave all that they had in faith and God gave back more through His great grace! They passed the testing and therefore, He knew He could trus...

We all want to grow and excel quickly. We want to run the race of faith to the fullest and end this life having done all that we could for the Kingdom of God. There is one sure fire way to do that... That is to "love correction". Learn to love and appreciate those who are willing to teach and correct and to keep your feet to the narrow path! Those who do this always learn, and grow, and go the fas...

A look at why the Bible takes such firms stances against seemingly simple things. Good sees the end from the beginning. He treats the first step towards the wide gate of destruction very seriously. He wants us to see the need to turn and run from it, from the first moment that we turn towards it. To guard the gate of your heart with all due dillagence!

So much of what God has done and is doing is wrapped up in His covenants. This is one of the greatest reasons that he gave us marriage. To help us understand the nature of covenant. This is also why the devil work so hard to pervert and destroy it. Get wisdom, know your place in it. 

Following Jesus takes humility, faith, seeking continually, and a willingness to change. Change direction, change your perspective, change the way to think and do things. You have to be willing to follow His lead and He will not often do things the way that you think that He should, because that He knows so much more than you do. So lay down your logic, your knowledge, your ambitions, and your pri...

A look through the book of Joshua at the battles that were fought by the Israelites once they had entered into the Promise to see what those Promised Land Battles taught them as they learned to Possess the Promise. 

A look at what the Prophet Jeremah tells us is the answer for those who are going into a season of trial and national storm. For the faithful, there is a shelter, and a provision and Jeramiah tells us where to find it. 

Coverings are important, God does things decently and in order. Staying within our placement allows for protection, provision, and power to flow down freely and unhindered. Let God lead. You be a bride and let Him be the Husband. 

Why did every person of power and faith in scripture fast? Why was it the marker of major turning points in people's lives, entire nations, and the whole narrative of Biblical dispensations? Why did Jesus say that some victories can only come by way of it? Why does the modern church shy away from it? Why did Jesus teach that it was as essential as prayer in the life of a believer? Today we look a...

In the temptation of Christ, the Devil tried to use the word of God to deceive and mislead. He knows that he can more easily sell you half-truths than whole lies, so he twists and perverts to manipulates the unlearned. He knows the word very well, if you want to stand against his temptations, you better know it too, so you can stand on the truth. Like Jesus did as an example for you. 

A powerful reminder that God is the supplier of our physical needs as well. He cares and knows what we need and will perform miracles, if need be, to feed His sheep. Trust Him and follow His lead and remember all the times He has provided for you before and know that He will always come through for you when things get hard. 

Different people have different definitions of faith, but God's definition is encompassed in the marriage covenant and goes beyond believing what we want to believe, to embody trust in what Jesus came to teach. Trust in Him, in who He is, in what He did, and in what He said. You can believe something and still not obey it, but if you trust Him, you will listen and follow Him anywhere. Even to the...

There is a time to build, a time to tear down, and a time to relay the foundations for future generations to build upon.  When there is nothing left to revive, it's time to reform. God is a God that keeps His word. Nothing is too hard, it's just doesn't usually come the way we invasion with our own vain imagination, but it comes in a way that is perfection and brings change that last for generatio...

God offers to partner with us. That is what covenant is, a partnership! Yet we can't forget what our place in it really is. We are His battle axes! He uses us to subdue kingdoms. But the axe does not swing itself. Nore is it the only one on the shelf. So don't get prideful! Instead, stay sharp and ready for the next mission and always give the glory to the one who welds it.

A look at one of the strangest and most beautiful miracles of Jesus's earthly ministry and what this woman of immense humility has to teach us through the pages of HisStory. 

A look at Israel's past to get a glimpse at our future. There are patterns set in scripture that we see often repeated when the lessons that they were meant to teach are not heeded.  

A call to live beyond oneself, to live for God, and for others. To prioritize building the church of tomorrow and not your own kingdom. To take the commission of the season that we are in very seriously. This generation of kids will face a world very different than we did. Help them prepare for their part in it. 

Lessons learned from the life of Job that you most likely do not know, that are invaluable for our faith in the face of what's to come
