You can simply play the video (or watch it) by pushing on the buttons on the screen that look like this. Just make sure you don't have any other programs running with active sound because you will get the ghost effect.

I highly recommend that you listen to this series. I copied it into my library in my real media player, it was that good. The content in parts of section 2 may not be suitable for small children, all though the material was being taught to high school students in Colorado. It will blow you away!

While you are reading through the Wild West why not listen to a lesson instead of music or TV every time? Just push "play audio" and it will play in the back ground while you plunder through the threads.

In His Grip - Dr. Charles Betters Ministry – Speaker Dan Betters
Taste-Tester or the Real Deal (Part 1A)
http://www.oneplace.com/ministries/In_His_Grip/archives.asp?bcd=1/18/2008
Hebrews Chapter 6 verses 4-6
4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,
5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,
6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.

| Hey, I liked your link to the pod-casts. I have been trying it out while I am working on the net. I have been working on building some webpages for my business, and sometimes have to be on for several hours. The only problem is that, my productivity goes down, because I find myself listening and doing nothing for several minutes at a time. LOL

| Sometimes I have to play a pod-cast several times while listening because I get distracted, but I still hear what is being said. You can do a search for a topic of your choice instead of listening to the one that I have selected. While in my office working I listen to different topics than I do at home. If you want to listen to pod-cast on relationships or marriage they have great ones. Children or family etc....

| If you have an opportunity to listen to The Enemies of Hope I encourage you to do so. In my opinion it is one of the best pod-cast I have ever listened to. Be prepared to take notes. I filled up a stack of sticky note pads (on accident) because I couldn't pass up the information. I am going to go back and listen to it again when I have more time and actually type the notes for future reference.

I wanted to share my notes with you from the pod-cast "Enemies of Hope Part's 1 and 2". I know its lengthy, but if you didn't get to listen to them, then maybe you can read the notes and understand the context of the message. It may motivate you to listen to the actual series. I for one have been changed because of this two part series. I hope that you will take a few minutes to read this and that you will benefit from the information in some way. Please feel free to share your comments! I would love to know if you receive a blessing as well. I just can't imagine that God only meant this for me. God bless you and may you find JOY and Hope! I would love to be a "Trumpet" in someones life!
Enemies of Hope Part 1 Pastor Dale O’Shields
No matter how many ruins there are in your life, God can re-build it. Mistakes WILL be made! Clutter can fill your life and disgrace can cause you to hang your head. But remember the opposite of disgrace is grace… Gods Grace. When you are filled with hope it is from God. Satan and his entities fill you with the opposite - despair, gloom and doubt, because he is the enemy of hope.
Delay - If you are in the middle of a delay, get in sink with God’s timing for your life. Be willing to let God change your plans to His plans and be prepared to wait on God.
Disappointments - Pray through the disappointments in your life.
The reality of our life can look pretty grim at times. It can cause both an emotional and physical depletion of our joy, but through God joy can and will return. Grab a hold of God’s reality and God’s vision that is greater than our natural reality and bring the vision of God into the circumstances of our lives.
Turn to God in prayer and hope will return. Don’t quit or give up! Get on your knees. The more you pray, the more hope will come to you – back to the promise of God. He is the God of disappointment breakers. Disappointment will destroy your life if you continue to carry them around!
Turn them over to God and allow Him to take your heavy load. This will free up your spirit and soul to press on. 1 Peter 5. 7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
Pray honest prayers. Tell God your true feelings; confess your doubts, disappointments, hurts and faults. Pray biblical prayers and pray Gods word. Pray persistent prayers and do not stop until your situation changes.
Reality can be an enemy some times. Firmly grasp Gods vision!
Trouble leads to Stress… Ruin leads to Waste…. Disgrace leads to Scorn. In the story of Nehemiah there was trouble ruin and disgrace that led to ruin waste and scorn. Learn to stop these three before they progress.
We hold on to hope by what we choose to see and what we choose to say!
Stop moaning about your disappointments and pray about them, over and over again…. Give them to God until He takes care of them….
Nehemiah 2; 17
Come let us rebuild and we will no longer be in disgrace
Enemies of Hope Part 2
Ridicule; deliberately and maliciously belittle, insult, disrespect, declare someone or their actions ridiculous or laughable.
Quite often we ridicule our selves although others can do this as well.
We need to confront spiritual lies and ridicule head on.
Nehemiah Ch 2 V 20 Then answered I them, and said unto them, The God of heaven, he will prosper us; therefore we his servants will arise and build: but ye have no portion, nor right, nor memorial, in Jerusalem. Nehemiah was telling those that ridiculed him of the spiritual boundaries that they were over stepping. When the devil shoots at you shoot back with scripture.
Ephesians Ch 6 Vs 10-12 Finally be strong in the Lord in his mighty power put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the Devil’s schemes for our struggle is not against flesh and blood but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
The enemies will do everything they can to rob you of your joy, to discourage you and they will plot against you. Be on guard! The enemy wants to steal your courage and make you weak by removing you enthusiasm and hindering your spirit.
Discouragement -Discouragement happens in the presence of pressure. When difficulties are upon you and pressure is mounting, with no relief in sight discouragement will inevitably set in. Opposition and odds stacking up lead to discouragement. When you are feeling discouraged pray more fervently than you have ever prayed in your life. Work harder than you have ever worked in your life. Don’t give up during the time of discouragement because you will regret it. Decisions made under the duress of discouragement are never made with a clear head or heart and are done with out thinking and will lead to more heartache.
Weariness - Sometimes we loose our hope because of weariness. Surround yourself with Godly support in order to give you hope when you are weary. This is not a only a physical weariness but a true weariness of the soul. Weary means tired, drained, worn out, fatigued – when you have been battling something for a long time and you are tired, max out with no resolution or end in sight. When you feel like you are working at something and no one else cares or helps, or wants to make the situation better you can get weary. The good news is God has given you a trumpet to blow, your spouse, a Godly friend, a Church or family member. There is someone that will reach out to help you when you get weary or that you can reach out to. With someone by your side you can go much farther than you could go alone. Having another person as an inspiration “a trumpet” helps us to keep on going. Life’s problems might be wearing you down but with someone by your side you can handle your problems much better. Don’t give up! Reach out to someone who you consider to be your trumpet and let them through Christ help pull you through.
Ecclesiastes 4.9 Two are better than 1 because they have a good return for their work if one falls down this friend can help him up but pity the man that falls down and has no one to help him up also if two lie down together thy will keep warm but how can one keep warm alone though one may be over powered two can defend themselves and a cord of three strands is not quickly broken…….. The key word for this passage is “right relationships”! (my points) If we fall down or “when” we fall down and we have someone by our side, that person is going to be there for us, to pick us up. Never in a “right relationship” would that person that is by your side turn their back on you or leave you in your fallen state or worse yet take steps to push you further down. Examine your relationships and the people that you spend the most time with, be careful not to cast your pearls before the swine.
KJV Galatians 6 - 9 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.] (NIV ~ Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.)
Failure can rob us of our hope more than anything else, especially repeated failure. The enemy loves to use failure to remind us of our past and as we relive the event over and over in our mind, our hope for a better tomorrow fades deeper.
Don’t let our past failures rob us of our joy.
Failure is an event, it is not an identity.
Don’t live in an atmosphere emotionally that is surrounded in thoughts of your failures. Let Them Go! We are all sinners, but living with unconfused sins will rob us of our joy. Repent your sins, confess them to God and ask for forgiveness and He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleans us from all unrighteousness. He takes a shredder and literally destroys the evidence of our sins after we confess them to Him so once you have asked for forgiveness, also forgive yourself and stop holding yourself down. Carrying around forgiven sins with steal your joy and cause you to be weary. God says that He cast our forgiven sins as far as the East is from the West.
Continuing in sin will keep us from the hopes and the future that God has for us! Confessing and repenting of our sins will get us on the right track and restore our joy and renew our spirit.
Psalms 51.10 Create in me a clean (pure) heart, oh God and renew a right spirit in me.
Memorize this scripture ~ Galatians 6.9 Let us not become weary in doing good for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

With Valentines Day around the corner I think it would be a great idea to dedicate the next few pod-cast to relationships and marriage. I have listened to so many over the last week so I find myself in a real struggle as to which one I want to start with. I think this link is a good place to start. Bear with me as I may go back in the past few weeks on release dates as I post more pod's. There are several that I feel are too good not to share with you.

More on marriage
Don’t Hurt Me
One who is married is concerned about . . .how she may please her husband.
1 Corinthians 7:34 NASB
What usually happens when you and your spouse get into a disagreement?
If you’re like most couples—according to the research of Dr. John Gottman, professor emeritus at the University of Washington—the wife does six times the amount of fussing and scolding, and the husband is 85 percent more likely to be the one who goes into stone-wall mode.
But as Emerson Eggerich told our radio audience recently, it’s not merely the amount of the wife’s talking that pushes her husband into silence and rejection. It’s the way she talks.
To every wife reading this, I know that this just seems to confirm that every man is overly sensitive and not willing to deal with the truth. But Emerson, who has over two decades of experience helping couples, asks you to take this challenge: “After you’ve had a fight with your husband, go into the bathroom, shut the door and reenact your responses as best as you can in front of the mirror. Look at yourself and how you’re coming across. Is there any man in your husband’s world who talks to him that way? Is there anybody in his world who talks to him that way?”
Usually, all you have to do to avoid his stonewalling is to soften the tone, brighten the facial expression and control the pointing finger. You can pretty much talk to him all day long—even with deep, impassioned emotion—if you avoid berating, dismissing and emasculating him.
Men are typically able to handle negative content. We do it all day long. We just can’t easily handle it when it comes across with the volume turned up on contempt. The disrespect drowns out the message from being heard.
If the goal is communication, the gateway to his heart is through respect, even when you don’t think he deserves it.
Discuss
Is this pattern true of your marriage? What makes you want to attack verbally? What makes you want to clam up?
Pray
Pray that you will better understand how to communicate with one another with mutual respect.
____________________________________________
I Was Just Thinking
I have seen You in the sanctuary, to see Your power and Your glory.
Psalm 63:2 NASB
Where is your place to ponder?
Maybe it's a certain chair in a quiet corner of your home. Maybe it's the back deck at sunrise or under the porch light after dark, with only the rhythmic hum of the crickets to disrupt your quiet. Maybe it's a nearby creek or a nice place to walk or jog. Maybe it's a garage workshop or a cozy cafe.
Or maybe it's nowhere. Maybe you and a "place to ponder" aren't seen together in the same spot very often.
Over the years when I come home from work or when Barbara comes home from her many errands, we take one another by the hand after dinner and sneak out for a walk. (With six kids you have to be a sneak sometimes. We did this so many times, they knew where to find us!)
We'll stroll through our garden beds, looking at what's blooming at certain seasons of the year. The garden is hardly professional--it's in constant need of repair and weeding. In fact, one of the problems with our place to ponder is that we often find ourselves pondering the work that needs doing out there.
But most important, it's simply our time away from the needs of other people. You know, the phone and email and all the other interruptions. We may share something we've been thinking about. We may dial up a sweet memory. We may stop and pray, or we may just walk along glad to be at home together.
If there's one reason why marriages wither under the pressures and demands of daily life, it may be the lack of having regular times and places where we deliberately go to pray, share and regain perspective. It may be because we're always puttering and planning and doing and moving from one place to the next but never stopping . . . and listening . . . and recharging . . . and pondering. Together.
Discuss
If you don't have a "place to ponder," where could it be? How could you make a habit of going there?
Pray
Ask God to help you see the value of getting quiet before Him.
________________________________________________________
The Holy Spirit
Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit.
Ephesians 5:18 NIV
When I was a little boy growing up, I remember people in our church referring to the Holy Spirit as the "Holy Ghost." For a long time I had this image in my mind of the Holy Ghost being something like Casper the Friendly Ghost, floating through walls like a puff of smoke.
I was also wrong about something else: I used to refer to the Holy Ghost as an "it"--as if He were some kind of impersonal machine or space alien. But the Holy Ghost that Jesus talked about is a living, active, personal being, sent to glorify Christ as well as to be our Counselor, Advisor, Advocate, Defender, Director, Encourager and Guide.
If you are interested in living life the way Jesus promised--and if you want a marriage where the two of you are growing spiritually--then a good understanding of the Holy Spirit is vital. Being "filled with the Spirit" is not just a suggestion but a clear command of Scripture. What Paul wrote to the Ephesians in the above verse means being controlled by Him in much the same way that alcohol controls a person's mind and actions.
When we're angry with each other about something, for instance, being filled with the Spirit enables us to control our tempers and impatience. He keeps us from saying things we'll later regret. He battles the selfishness within us, bringing our hearts under His authority and bending our wills to God's.
We don't always let Him win, of course. We still fail Him far too often. But every time we submit ourselves to His control, He grows in us the character traits that please Him and bless our spouses. "For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace" (Romans 8:6).
Discuss
What have you learned about the Holy Spirit? How much of your understanding of Him has been inaccurate over the years?
Pray
Pray for hearts that are constantly cleaned and confessed, leaving ample room for the Spirit to dwell in. Last edited on Sun Aug 3rd, 2008 10:02 PM by concealed
