What if we truly lived the way Paul asks us to in Philippians 2:1-8? Consider what it means to value others above ourselves, take on the "nature of a servant," and do everything without complaining or arguing. What a different way to live!

Episode 34 Resting and Dwelling in God's Shelter Dec 13, 2019

Show notes

In Psalm 91, we read beautiful and powerful promises of God's protection and care for us. We can take this gentle but strong image with us: "He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart."

Episode 33 Letting God Be Your Light Dec 06, 2019

Show notes

What does it mean to see Jesus as the light of the world? Just as a candle cannot light itself, we cannot bring light into our own souls. Consider how Isaiah proclaims that “justice is far from us, and righteousness does not reach us. We look for light, but all is darkness; for brightness, but we walk in deep shadows" (Isaiah 59:9). Then Jesus becomes the light of the world.

God gives a beautiful command in 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18. Paul writes, "Be joyful always; pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus." What if you took the gratitude challenge to thank God in every circumstances--no matter how difficult or painful? Could the Holy Spirit allow us to do this for the rest of our lives?

Show notes

In 1 Peter 5:7 we see that verb "cast" and in Psalm 55:2 we read, "Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken." As you think about your cares or burdens today, what would it mean to give these worries to the Lord?

Episode 28 Chosen and Consecrated Nov 01, 2019

Show notes

"Surrendering to God is hard. Not surrendering to God is harder." What does a surrendered life look like? Learning to offer ourselves as "living sacrifices" (Romans 12:1) adds to our identity as part of the Royal Priesthood (1 Peter 2:9). Finally, a key to the vibrant Christian life comes straight from Galatians 2:20 and what it means live a crucified life.
