In der nächsten Episode des Riders Ready Podcasts haben wir eine ganz besondere Runde: Meine Kindheitsidole Andreas Tittmann, Ivi Vidakovic, Ralf Früchtl und Thomas Falter – ehemalige Mitglieder des legendären Redline BMX-Teams.
Die Jungs blicken zurück auf ihre gemeinsame Zeit im Team. Sie erzählen, wie sie zusammenkamen, berichten von Erlebnissen wie den Zügen, die für sie angehalten wurden, und wie Andy heimlich seine Pedals produzierte. Auch witzige Anekdoten über Stretchlimousinen und Toiletten in den USA kommen zur Sprache, und dass sie beinahe im Film RAD aufgetaucht wären.

Exploring God’s Word with Brad ThurstonNow I UnderstandGrowth in understanding From the beginning the Old Testament speaks of God’s desire for all to come to a knowledge of the truth. The promises are not just for Abraham and his descendants, but for all who will call upon the name of the Lord! But the Jews see their purpose as defending God’s honor through their traditions and laws. So though the prophets declared it, it is not something that their understanding could comprehend. As a result, they did little about it. This passage is about a major change in understanding, and in application. This is t...

There has been no lack of good advice for the last four thousand years! A bit more makes no difference!” Christianity is about being a friend of God. It’s relational.

May your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. In this prayer we’re asking for heaven to come to earth…we’re asking for what’s happening in God’s neighborhood to happen in our own…we’re asking for the mission launched by Jesus to continue in the present and to be consummated at his return in the future.
