Beskrivelse

Share Your Thoughts [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2602723/fan_mail/new] In this episode of Scattered Moments, Matt reflects on the unsettling beauty of Scripture—a Book that comforts us while simultaneously confronting us. The Bible does not flatter humanity. It leaves the failures in. No deleted scenes. No polished heroes. Just the raw story of God meeting broken people with relentless grace. This reflection explores the danger of reducing God’s Word to a theological weapon, a political mascot, or a religious artifact while missing the living Christ at its center. The Bible is not safe. It disturbs false peace, confronts dead religion, and calls ordinary people into radical surrender, forgiveness, courage, and hope. Featuring reflections on: • The honesty of Scripture • Why the Bible still confronts modern religion • Charles Spurgeon’s famous “lion” metaphor • The difference between defending Scripture and being transformed by it • The dangerous beauty of grace “The Word of God is living and active...” — Hebrews 4:12 Take care, Notice the Scattered moments and share the grace.

June 12, 2026 | Moments Almanac | Injustice

Share Your Thoughts [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2602723/fan_mail/new] On June 12, 1929, Anne Frank was born. On June 12, 1963, Medgar Evers was murdered. One entered the world on this day. One left it. Yet both continue to speak. In this episode of Moments Almanac, we remember two lives shaped by courage in the face of hatred and injustice. From a hidden attic in Nazi-occupied Europe to a driveway in Jackson, Mississippi, Anne Frank and Medgar Evers remind us that even the smallest light can shine through the deepest darkness. Drawing from John 1:5 and the enduring hope of the Gospel, we'll reflect on what it means to carry Christ's light into a broken world—and why darkness never has the final word. "The light shines in the darkness, and yet the darkness did not overcome it." — John 1:5

Share Your Thoughts [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2602723/fan_mail/new] What do an ancient encourager, a modern ocean explorer, and a timeless proverb have in common? On this June 11 edition of Moments Almanac, we remember Barnabas—the Son of Encouragement—and celebrate the birthday of Jacques Cousteau, whose journeys revealed the wonders hidden beneath the sea. Together, their stories remind us that the deepest journeys of life and faith are rarely made alone. Drawing from Proverbs 27:17, this episode explores the power of encouragement, friendship, forgiveness, and the companions God places beside us as we grow in Christ. "Iron sharpens iron, and one person sharpens another." Join us for a few reflective minutes as we consider what it means to go deeper—together. #MomentsAlmanac #Barnabas #JacquesCousteau #ChristianPodcast #FaithJourney #Encouragement #Proverbs2717 #ChurchHistory #DailyDevotional #GoDeeperTogether 🌊📖

Dogs, Fences and Finding Home

Share Your Thoughts [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2602723/fan_mail/new] What can two very different dogs teach us about the Christian life? In this episode of Scattered Moments, Matt Tullos shares the humorous story of Frank, a dachshund whose life mission was escaping every fence ever built, and Arthur, a faithful companion who had the freedom to go anywhere but simply wanted to stay close to the people he loved. Along the way, you'll discover a gentle truth about God's boundaries, our tendency to wander, and the surprising freedom found in abiding with Christ. Drawing from Jesus' invitation to "remain in me" and the timeless words of the hymn Come Thou Fount, this reflection explores the difference between running from God and resting in His love. If you've ever found yourself convinced that happiness was waiting just over the next fence, this episode is for you.

June 10, 2026 | Moments Almanac | Quiet

Share Your Thoughts [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2602723/fan_mail/new] The world celebrates noise, urgency, and constant activity. Scripture offers a different path. In this episode of Moments Almanac, we reflect on June 10 through the lens of a quiet and faithful life: Thomas à Kempis and reflect on Paul's gentle encouragement in 1 Thessalonians 4:11: "Seek to lead a quiet life." We'll reflect on the simple wisdom of Rich Mullins, and consider how God often does His deepest work not through applause or spectacle, but through ordinary faithfulness. The kingdom of God frequently advances one quiet prayer, one faithful act, and one obedient step at a time. Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 4:11–12 Welcome to Moments Almanac, a time to remember the people, places, and events that leave fingerprints on the soul.

Sleep Story | Transfiguration

Share Your Thoughts [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2602723/fan_mail/new] Tonight, we climb a quiet mountain with Jesus. In this gentle Christian sleep story, you'll journey alongside Christ and His disciples as they ascend the mountain where the veil between heaven and earth seems to grow thin. Inspired by the biblical account of the Transfiguration, this story invites you to imagine the peace of resting in the presence of Jesus—the place where God's Kingdom is most fully known. With slow narration, calming imagery, and a focus on Christ's nearness, this episode is designed to help settle a busy mind and prepare your heart for rest. Whether you listen all the way to the end or drift off somewhere along the path, my hope is simple: that you'll fall asleep with a little bit of holy on your mind. Scripture Inspiration: Matthew 17:1–8 For best results, listen in a comfortable place, lower the lights, and allow the story to unfold at an unhurried pace. Scattered Moments is a podcast of quiet reflections, guided meditations, and sleep stories designed to help you rest in the presence of God.
