”Stand Forever” Ep. 14 | Choose God’s Spirit | Elder Lawrence E. Corbridge May 14, 2026

Show notes

Is there something you can do that will make everything else better without an opportunity cost? And if so, what is The One Thing? With discipline and sustained effort, you can master one thing over time and maybe learn to do a few things well, but you can’t become a master of many things because of “opportunity cost.” We can only do one thing at a time. Talents, energy, resources, and time are limited. A dollar spent on one thing is a dollar not spent on everything else. An hour of swimming, watching television, or studying scripture is at the expense of everything else that could have been done with that same time and energy. When you say yes to one thing, you say no to everything else. Yes, there is One Thing that can be done not at the expense of everything else, but while doing everything else, that will also enhance, instruct, and make everything else better. To discover that One Thing, we ask another question: What has the Lord said we should always do? The answer to that question will reveal the One Thing.

Joshua I Entering the Promised Land I Handmaidens, Harems and Heroines I Lynne Wilson May 11, 2026

Show notes

In this episode of Handmaidens, Harems, and Heroines, Dr. Lynne Hilton Wilson explores the powerful women and pivotal covenant moments found in the book of Joshua. As the children of Israel finally cross the Jordan River and enter the Promised Land under Joshua’s leadership, we witness the fulfillment of promises made generations earlier. From the miraculous crossing of the Jordan to the dramatic fall of Jericho’s walls, this episode highlights how faith, obedience, and covenant loyalty shaped Israel’s destiny. A special focus is placed on Rahab, one of the most surprising and courageous women in the Old Testament. Though known as Rahab the harlot, her story becomes one of redemption, faith, and divine protection as she risks everything to shelter Israelite spies and align herself with the God of Israel. Dr. Wilson examines Rahab’s remarkable transformation from outsider to covenant participant and discusses her lasting legacy in scripture. Join us as we uncover how women like Rahab played essential roles in God’s unfolding covenant story and what their examples teach us today.

Deuteronomy I How the Law of Moses Protected Women I Handmaidens, Harems and Heroines I Lynne Wilson May 04, 2026

Show notes

Step into the world of the Old Testament with Lynne Hilton Wilson as she uncovers the powerful, complex, and often overlooked stories of women during one of Israel’s most transformative eras. In this episode, we follow the Israelites as they prepare to enter the Promised Land—a moment filled with hope, covenant renewal, and profound social restructuring. But beneath the surface, what did this transition mean for women? From wives and mothers to servants and slaves, Lynne explores how women navigated a shifting religious and cultural landscape, revealing both their resilience and the limitations placed upon them. This episode also takes a thoughtful look at the theological tone of Deuteronomy compared to the earlier Books of Moses. Why does Deuteronomy seem to centralize worship and, in some ways, move away from earlier temple-oriented practices? How might these shifts have impacted women’s roles in covenant life and sacred spaces? With insight and clarity, Lynne highlights how scriptural developments can both elevate and restrict, offering a nuanced perspective on faith, law, and the lived experiences of women in ancient Israel. This is a conversation that will deepen your understanding of scripture—and challenge you to see it in a whole new way.

”Stand Forever” Ep. 12 | The Way—Choose Best | Elder Lawrence E. Corbridge Apr 27, 2026

Show notes

You are the product of your choices. The purpose of God’s plan for you is to learn to choose wisely, to make increasingly better choices until you learn to make the best choices, the choices God would make. It’s that simple. There is a God who is the Creator of all things. You are His child. Offspring may become like their parents in each of life’s many divisions and you may become like yours. As His child and in His likeness, you have the innate potential and capacity to advance from one degree of light and intelligence to the next, and from there on to the next beyond that and on and on until, in the process of a very long time and with the right conditions and choices, you become like Him. What else could be the natural conclusion of the evolution of a child, if not to that of the parents? The full realization of your divine potential, however, is not inevitable. It is no more inevitable than a child in this life matching either the superb character or excellent achievements of an outstanding father or mother. One may be born into greatness, but greatness achieved must be won by each individually. Greatness actualized and greatness internalized comes neither by birth nor environment, rather by choice.

Leviticus, Numbers I Cultivate Faith in the Desert I Handmaidens, Harems and Heroines I Lynne Wilson Apr 27, 2026

Show notes

In this episode of Handmaidens, Harems, and Heroines, Lynne Hilton Wilson explores the book of Numbers through the often-overlooked experiences of women in the wilderness journey of Israel. Set against a backdrop of wandering, testing, and covenant renewal, this episode highlights how women were not only present but deeply woven into the spiritual life of the covenant community. From moments of devotion and faith to instances of struggle and consequence, their stories reveal how God’s promises and expectations extended to all His children. Listeners will gain fresh insight into how women participated in sacred rituals, upheld family and communal faith, and experienced both the blessings and responsibilities of living in covenant with God. At the same time, this episode does not shy away from the challenges these women faced—uncertainty, displacement, societal limitations, and the consequences of disobedience. Through careful scriptural analysis, Lynne examines how these experiences reflect broader themes of trust, obedience, and divine mercy. Ultimately, the episode invites viewers to see the book of Numbers not just as a record of wandering, but as a powerful testament to God’s enduring relationship with His people—including the faithful women whose lives exemplify both the struggles and the sacred blessings of covenant discipleship.
