EP 153 Faith for the Life You Were Made to Live Nov 01, 2021

Show notes

God has put us on this earth to be lights in dark places, to be conduits of His love to people, and to make an impact for the Kingdom. But living a life of impact is not always going to be easy and it’s not always going to be comfortable - it will require faith. We’ll have to take some risks by stepping out to go where God wants us to go and to do what he asks us to do. Without faith, we are likely to find ourselves trading the abundant, peace-filled life God designed for us, for one filled with constant worry and fear of the future. This episode will empower you to trust in the goodness of God more than ever, to find lasting victory over fear, and to live with an amazing faith that prepares you to step into the life you were made to live.

EP 152 How to Stop Striving for Your Purpose Oct 28, 2021

Show notes

Waiting on God is one of the most important things we will ever learn to do. Waiting well leads us to spiritual maturity, develops our reliance on God, builds faith, and infuses us with courage. And waiting on God will take us further than we could ever take ourselves on our own. So what stops us from waiting? Oftentimes, it’s impatience and selfish ambition. On the surface, we may look like we’re on track - fueled by Godly ambition - but if we’re honest with ourselves, the motivation in our hearts has gone a bit sideways. This episode will empower you to trust God so deeply with your future that you develop the discipline to wait on him to open the doors to your destiny rather than striving for it in your own strength.

EP 150 How to Navigate the Unpredictable with Confidence Oct 21, 2021

Show notes

What do you do when circumstances, friendship, job situations, or lost opportunities disappoint? When things don’t go our way, despite our best efforts, our natural inclination may be to try to take control of the situation. We may attempt to manage by withdrawing from life and avoiding our problems, or by striving in our own strength to make everything right. Sometimes the hardest thing to do is to lay it all down and trust God to figure it out. We think if we stop trying to fix it, we’ll get trapped in it. But the truth is just the opposite. Learning to put situations into God’s hands and walk by faith - even when life is unpredictable and we can’t see the next step - makes us unstoppable for the Kingdom. This episode will empower you to face the unpredictable nature of life with confidence and hope as you stir up an unstoppable faith that moves you forward, builds your strength, grows your spiritual maturity, and helps you find joy even when things aren’t going your way.

EP 149 Don't Let "If Only" Steal Your Destiny Oct 18, 2021

Show notes

Your life will change forever when you begin to see the power of the “here and now.” It’s really all that we’ve got! We can act like our calling is out there somewhere, and that we’ll discover it some day—but your purpose is always happening right here and right now. Let’s not keep thinking “if only” I knew my mission, or “if only” I was more qualified, or “if only” things at work weren’t so demanding. God has something for who in exactly the circumstances you find yourself now. It’s true that he may lead you elsewhere in the future, but on this day you’re exactly where he has called you to be and he’s equipped you for exactly what he calls you to do. This episode will empower you to “if only” thinking, see the value in your “here” right now, and look for opportunities to step into your purpose right where you are - whether at home, work, school, or neighborhood.

EP 147 Permission to Stop Trying So Hard Oct 11, 2021

Show notes

Is there something holding you back? If so, it might not be what you think it is. Whether you already know what you want in life—or you’re still looking at all the possibilities—if you’re not where you’d like to be, consider this: you may actually be trying too hard. Some of us have spent a lifetime striving to make things happen in our own strength. We wear ourselves out jockeying for position, stressing about where we’ll get the money we need, or obsessing over making relationships into what we want them to be. But God didn’t create us to carry these burdens. He’s got a better way for us—waiting on him to make a way. We have each been given a God-given purpose, dream, and destiny, but these can only come to pass through God’s strength on the inside of us—not our own efforts and will power. This episode will empower you to let go of the self-imposed pressure to make things happen in your life, learn how to wait for God’s power to work through you, and allow him to lead you into the amazing purpose, passion, and destiny he has for you.

EP 146 There are Still Good Things Ahead of You Oct 07, 2021

Show notes

You can be just as strong, passionate, and fruitful today as you have been at any other point in your life—no matter your age or your season in life. Do you believe that? It can be hard when we have a culture and an enemy that tells us it’s over, it’s too late, it’s too hard, we’re no longer qualified, or there are too many obstacles to overcome. But God has made it very clear in his Word that he has a plan, purpose, and destiny for us at every age and stage of our lives, for as long as we’re on this planet. Are you living like you believe that your life has purpose or has your heart grown weary? Have you given up on your dreams, or do you still have vision for your future? Is your heart still in it or have you lost your passion? This episode will empower you to keep your heart in it, to keep believing God still has good things ahead for you, and to remain strong, passionate, and fruitful for all of your days.

EP 145 Hope for Those Waiting on God Oct 04, 2021

Show notes

In our fast-paced, instant culture, most of us really do not like waiting. And that’s particularly true when we’re waiting for direction in life, for wisdom and answers from God, isn’t it? We’re eager to get going, and anything less than getting it “right now” feels like being held back. But if we want to see the purposes and plans of God come to pass in our lives, we have to learn to live on God’s time and not our own. And that means learning to wait well. Most of the time, we think of waiting solely as something that must be endured, something we must grit our teeth to get through. And while waiting may be uncomfortable, there is a lot of growth and beauty to be found in it. Waiting on God’s direction doesn’t mean he’s silent, doesn’t mean he has left us. Even while we wait, he speaks to us—through his Word, through personal insight, and even through people and circumstances. God could download our next steps in an instant, if he chooses, but most of the time he reveals things to us little by little while we wait. And he’s growing our faith and our character in the process. So, waiting isn’t holding you back, it’s actually propelling you forward! This episode will empower you to discover the significance of waiting seasons and be open to all that God wants to speak and do in your life while you wait.

EP 144 Believing for a Miracle Sep 30, 2021

Show notes

It is usually quite easy to have faith and trust God when everything in life is smooth sailing, isn’t it? But what do you do when you find yourself facing a massive challenge? Maybe it’s a daunting financial setback, a relationship you’ve been longing for, a marriage in need of restoration, or an unsettling health diagnosis. Whatever it is, when we find ourselves face to face with an enormous mountain in our way, we are usually tempted to strategize and scheme our way around it. But there is another way - a better way - and that is to keep trusting God, to hold onto hope, and to have faith for the impossible. Scripture tells us that our faith can amaze Jesus, that our faith can open the door for God to work miracles in our life. This episode will empower you to build the kind of faith that believes for miracles even in the most impossible of situations.
