Il campionato europeo di calcio entra nel vivo con le due semifinali Spagna-Francia e Olanda-Inghilterra di stasera e domani sera. Claudio Coppini e Roberto Vacca commentano con Jonathan Di Maggio la qualità del calcio sin qui mostrato da queste quattro squadre, azzardando delle previsioni che però risultano in effetti un’operazione impossibile, perchè il calcio è imprevedibile, come dimostrano anche i risultati di un’altra grande competizione internazionale, la Coppa America. Nella seconda parte una breve finestra sul momento fortunato che sta attraversando il tennis italiano, non solo grazie a Sinner.

Wednesday: The Secret of Jesus’ Ministry
Daily Lesson for Wednesday 10th of July 2024
Read Mark 1:35-39. What important lessons can be taken from what Jesus did here?
Jesus arose before sunrise and went out to a quiet, deserted location to pray. Mark 1:35 emphasizes prayer as the focus of Jesus’ action. All the other verbal forms in the sentence are in summary form—He got up, went out, and departed (all in the aorist tense in Greek, signifying completeness). But the verb “to pray” is in the imperfect tense, a form used to express, particularly here, an ongoing process. He was praying, He kept on praying. The text also emphasizes how early it was when Jesus went out, implying that His time of prayer alone was extensive.
Throughout the Gospels, we meet Jesus as a man of prayer (see Matthew 14:23, Mark 6:46, John 17:1-26). This appears to be one of the key secrets in the power of Jesus’ ministry.
Read Luke 6:12. What does this teach about Jesus’ prayer life?
Many Christians have set times for prayer. This practice is good and right, but it also can become a routine, almost something done by rote. One way to break out of a set mold is to change the time of prayer occasionally or to pray longer than usual at times. The point is not to lock yourself into some kind of formula that can never change.
Peter and his companions did not accompany Jesus to the place of prayer. Perhaps they knew of the location because they did find Him. Their note that everyone was looking for Jesus suggested that He follow up the exciting experience of the previous day with more healing and teaching. Surprisingly, Jesus demurs and points to a wider field of service to other locations. “But He said to them, ‘Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also, because for this purpose I have come forth’ ” (Mark 1:38, NKJV).
If Jesus Himself needed to spend so much time in prayer, what about ourselves, and how much time should we spend in prayer? What does Jesus’ example say to us?

The Real End of the World

by Lindsey Abston Painter | 9 July 2024 | It’s pretty common in Adventist churches to hear about the world ending. Preachers or evangelists talk about things that they think are going to snowball into an end-time crisis. Their examples usually have to do with big conspiracies focused on Seventh-day Adventists and our beliefs. […] Source: https://atoday.org/the-real-end-of-the-world/
