899: Gaining God’s Heart for the Modern Church // Overcoming Apathy 1 (Leslie Ludy) Sep 19, 2022

Show notes

We are remodeling our studio—and so for the next three weeks, we are heading back to the archives and listening to three important series (from Leslie, Nathan, and Eric). This week Leslie focuses on how to overcome apathy.

Many of us have become disturbed as we see modern Christianity steeped in mediocrity and spiritual apathy. It’s easy to assume that God is so fed up with the Church today that He’s given up on it. But in reality, His love for the Church is as great as it has ever been. He desires repentance, revival, and restoration to Himself. In this session Leslie presents a Biblical understanding of God’s heart and vision for modern Christianity, and how we as believers can become part of His solution for the Church today.

898: The Hall of Mirrors // Spiritual Lessons from WW1 42 (Eric Ludy) Sep 16, 2022

Show notes

This is the forty-second and final installment in Eric Ludy’s epic summer Daily Thunder series entitled Spiritual Lessons from WW1. This concluding episode wraps up the epic drama of WW1 in the Hall of Mirrors in the palace of Versailles. In June of 1919, exactly five years after Gavrilo Princip shot the Archduke of Austria-Hungary, the peace treaty was signed by all the belligerent countries and “peace” ensued. But it was a temporary peace, because it was a peace based upon brute force and revenge and not one derived from genuine agreement. This very misconceived treaty became the seedbed for Adolf Hitler and the Second World War in 1939.

897: The Danger of Soul Drift // Soul Drift 27 (Nathan Johnson) Sep 15, 2022

Show notes

In this final episode of the series, Nathan examines the phrase "soul drift" and explains how we must not allow our souls to drift from our first love. You were made to not only discover but intimately know your heart's greatest longing—Jesus Himself.

896: The Conscientious Objector // Spiritual Lessons from WW1 41 (Eric Ludy) Sep 14, 2022

Show notes

This is the forty-first installment in Eric Ludy’s epic summer Daily Thunder series entitled Spiritual Lessons from WW1. This episode discusses the different approaches and mindsets that Christians have had about war and participating in war throughout the ages. Specifically, Eric focuses on the Conscientious Objector and the trials that WW1 brought to those that felt they could not participate in the war due to matters of conscience. It is imperative that the Church understand the issues of conscience so that they are ready to properly process and Biblically respond to the soul challenges of our day.

895: Search Me // Soul Drift 26 (Nathan Johnson) Sep 13, 2022

Show notes

We are often blinded by our own problems, sin, and idols. We just can’t see them. Yet David in Psalm 139 cries out for God to search and try his heart to see if there is anything wicked within him. And we, like David, desperately need God to search and point out anything in our lives that needs to be removed or transformed. In this message, Nathan examines Psalm 139:23-24 and explains why being searched and tried by the Lord is not only good, but beautifully essential in our lives.

894: The American Hero // Spiritual Lessons from WW1 40 (Eric Ludy) Sep 12, 2022

Show notes

This is the fortieth installment in Eric Ludy’s epic summer Daily Thunder series entitled Spiritual Lessons from WW1. This episode explores the impact of one particular soldier on the landscape of the war. In October of 1918, in the Argonne-Meuse offensive, one soldier stunned, not just the Germans, but the entire world. Under fire of 30 machine guns directly aimed at him, he not only captured all the enemy's machine guns, but captured 132 German soldiers while he was at it—single-handedly. It's a remarkable story and one that has a rich spiritual parallel in our own lives.

893: The Allied Answer // Spiritual Lessons from WW1 39 (Eric Ludy) Sep 09, 2022

Show notes

This is the thirty-ninth installment in Eric Ludy’s epic summer Daily Thunder series entitled Spiritual Lessons from WW1. This episode marks the exciting turning point in WW1. When all hope seemed lost for the Allies—the Battle of Amiens transformed everything. Backed into a corner, the Allies appeared defeated, and then suddenly the storyline flipped. Using the idea of prevailing prayer, this message unpacks the secrets to triumph and how God steals victory out of the jowls of defeat.

892: To trust God you must know Him // Soul Drift 25 (Nathan Johnson) Sep 08, 2022

Show notes

You are invited into a rich and intimate relationship with God Almighty; a relationship that is to be exclusive in its devotion. Yet the only way we will ever fully love and trust God with all we are and all we have is to spend time getting to know Him. In this message, Nathan discusses the concept that to trust God we must know Him … and to know Him, we must spend time with Him.

891: God is Jealous … and why that’s a good thing // Soul Drift 24 (Nathan Johnson) Sep 07, 2022

Show notes

Our God is a jealous God, and that is actually a good thing. Though we often see jealousy as a negative and destructive attribute, we discover throughout Scripture that jealousy is an amazing aspect of God’s character. In this message, Nathan discusses why jealousy in relationships is essential and explains why we must understand this attribute biblically. By the end, you will discover the beauty and benefit of jealousy and learn why God’s jealousy is a really good thing.

890: Footprints of Destiny // Spiritual Lessons from WW1 38 (Eric Ludy) Sep 06, 2022

Show notes

This is the thirty-eighth installment in Eric Ludy’s epic summer Daily Thunder series entitled Spiritual Lessons from WW1. This episode covers the convulsive and defining period of 1917 and 1918 in the war. But, whereas most of the episodes in this series tell the stories of WW1 from a low altitude and zoom in on the participating characters—this episode flies higher and is able looks down on WW1 from the 50,000-foot level, allowing the passenger to see the intervention of God in the unfolding of these cataclysmic events. Even when it would appear that God has forgotten man and has left man to his own violent devices—He is still very much in control. And if He is in control of nations, how much more should I believe He is in in control of my life?
