Why do so many of us get nervous when public speaking? Communication expert Lawrence Bernstein says the key to dealing with the pressure is as simple as having a casual chat. He introduces the "coffee shop test" as a way to help you overcome nerves, connect with your audience and deliver a message that truly resonates. After the talk, Modupe explains a similar approach in academia called the "Grandma test," and how public speaking can be as simple as a conversation with grandma.

Después de escapar de la ciudad filistea de Gat, David se escondió en la cueva de Adulam (1 Sam 22:1-2), donde escribió el Salmo 57. David huía y se escondía de sus enemigos. Desde esta cueva, David se refiere a Dios como su refugio (57:1). Se hace referencia a Dios 21 veces por su nombre o pronombre en los 11 versículos del Salmo. Esta mentalidad centrada en Dios cambia el tono del salmista de la incertidumbre a la alabanza firme. Hay un cambio de tono y tema entre las dos estrofas que ha dejado perplejos a algunos eruditos que buscan un tema unificado en el Salmo. Pasando de la súplica individual (vv. 1-4) a una invocación de que Dios manifestaría su gloria a toda la tierra (vv. 9-11), algunos han propuesto que el Salmo es una recopilación de dos composiciones separadas. Pero juntas, las dos secciones presentan los detalles de la necesidad individual en el contexto del asunto sustancial más amplio de la gloria de Dios. Cuando estamos experimentando una prueba, podemos "perder el bosque por los árboles", enfocándonos en la liberación de nuestras circunstancias, sin perder de vista cómo nuestra prueba contribuye al gran objetivo de la historia: que Dios sea conocido y honrado. David quiere que Dios sea exaltado sobre toda la tierra, en la forma en que confía y alaba a Dios en sus pruebas. El Salmo 57 nos muestra que nuestras oraciones por la liberación de la angustia sirven a un fin mayor que simplemente un cambio de circunstancias o sentimientos, pero nuestro sufrimiento es, en última instancia, para la gloria de Dios.…

After escaping from the Philistine city of Gath, David hid in the cave of Adullam (1 Sam 22:1-2), where he wrote Psalm 57. David was running away and hiding from his enemies. From this cave, David refers to God as his refuge (57:1). God is referred to 21 times by name or pronoun in the Psalm's 11 verses. This God-centered mindset changes the Psalmist's tone from uncertainty to settled praise. There is a change in tone and theme between the two stanzas that has perplexed some scholars seeking a unified theme in the Psalm. Going from the individual plea (vss. 1-4) to an invocation that God would manifest His glory to the whole earth (vss. 9-11), some have proposed that the Psalm is a compilation of two separate compositions. But put together, the two sections present the minutia of individual need in the context of the wider substantial matter of God's glory. When we are experiencing a trial, we can "lose the forest for the trees," by focusing on deliverance from our circumstances, while missing how our trial contributes to the great goal of history – that God might be known and honored. David wants God to be exalted over all the earth, in the way he trusts and praises God in his trials. Psalm 57 shows us that our prayers for deliverance from distress serve a greater end than just a change of circumstance or feeling, but our suffering is ultimately for the glory of God.…

The title of the Psalm tells us that it was written by David, when the Ziphites went and told Saul, "Is not David hiding among us?" This is a reference to events that take place in 1 Samuel 23. The immediate background for Psalm 54 had David inside the walled city of Keilah, which he liberated from the attacking Philistines. Though they benefited from David's protection, the Keilahites considered David a threat to the monarchy and sought to turn him over to Saul. Upon being warned by the Lord, David slipped out of the city, seeking refuge in the wilderness of Ziph. David was unsafe even in this remote inhospitable area as the Ziphites also sought to turn him over to King Saul. The treachery of Doeg the Edomite against David could be expected, but here David finds himself betrayed by his own people – the Jews in Ziph. Having nowhere to turn and hardly anyone he could trust, David turned to the Lord in prayer and wrote a song about it – the words of Psalm 54. This Psalm is for anyone who has felt abandoned, rejected, or publicly denounced by a friend. When one might feel as though, "no one cares," Psalm 54 reveals a God who not only cares but is powerful to deliver His people from their affliction. The Psalm serves as a model prayer: he calls on God to hear his lamentation (2-3); he encourages himself by remembering who God is (4); he makes his request (5); and he offers thanksgiving demonstrating a firm confidence that God would indeed deliver him. Having brought his anxiety to the Lord at the beginning of the Psalm, David is restored to quiet trust and confidence by the end of it.…

"Post tenebras lux" is a Latin phrase that translates, "after darkness, light," meaning that even after a period of darkness, there will eventually be light. The phrase became a motto for the Protestant Reformation, symbolizing returning to the "light" of biblical truth after a period of religious darkness. Much of the book of 1 Samuel volleys between darkness and light – between narrating events in Saul's life and parallel events in the life of David. The contrast between the two is as stark as darkness and light. Chapter 28 of 1 Samuel narrates the darkest period of the book, as King Saul, abandoned by God, sank into the deepest darkness of his career. Saul's rebellion turned to witchcraft as he sought a medium to bring back Samuel from the dead. David too was greatly distressed; but unlike Saul, he strengthened himself in the Lord his God (30:6) and the Lord promised and delivered victory. As David increases and the sun rises on "Twilight Kingdom," David, though far from perfect, will not become a king like Saul. Unlike Saul who lost his father's donkeys, David shepherds his people well. Unlike Saul, whose best idea was to call on a witch, David goes to the right person, using the right means, for the right purpose (see 30:6-8). As the man after God's heart, David finds himself in the Lord's favor – his steps divinely guided. Chapter 30 is a celebration of David right after Saul's darkest time and right before chapter 31 reports the demise of Saul.…

The author of 1 Samuel breaks off the narrative about David to tell us something of greater importance. He does this to place David's predicament right beside Saul's dilemma to show us that as difficult as David's situation was, Saul's was far worse. King Saul was abandoned by God. In verse 15, Saul utters what are among the most miserable words in all of Scripture when he tells the ghost of Samuel, "I am in great distress, for the Philistines are warring against me, and God has turned away from me and answers me no more, either by prophets or by dreams." Saul had reached the point in his life that Samuel had prophesied of years earlier in chapter 15, verse 23, "rebellion is as the sin of divination, and presumption is as iniquity and idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of the Lord, he has also rejected you from being king." Facing the greatest misery of his life, Saul sinks into the deepest darkness of his career as king, as his rebellion (akin to witchcraft) turns to actual witchcraft. In the absence of a word from the Lord, king Saul hypocritically violates God's commandment and turns to Satan for answers. In desperation and facing devastation, men will often turn to anything they think will bring them hope. But the lesson Saul learned is that if one despises God's Word, He will take it away and if one persistently refuses to obey God's word, they will endure His silence.…
In 2 Corinthians 7:10, the apostle writes: For godly sorrow produces a repentance without regret, leading to salvation, but the sorrow of the world brings about death. Evaluating the veracity of repentance can be difficult, but most everyone would agree that a distinction must be made between the person who is truly repentant and the one who only regrets the consequences of their actions. Identifying the marks of true repentance is very practical in our lives and in our church. Is your friend, for example, truly sorry about how their words offended you, or do they just want to move on as if nothing happened? How can the church know whether a person under discipline has genuinely repented or is merely going through outward motions wrought by regret? How can a wife know whether her husband's tears and sorrow after infidelity are the fruit of genuine repentance or of mere worldly sorrow? Even more important is the question of one's repentance before the Lord. How can one be confident that they are not among the multitude of people who think they have repented but are self-deceived? After all, Jesus warned that there are many who call Him "Lord," yet he will say to them, "depart from me I never knew you" (Mt 7:21-23). Scripture commands us to examine our own salvation (2 Cor13:5) to make it sure (2 Pet 1:10). False assurance is the price of not evaluating one's repentance accurately; the cost of which will be eternal.…
