Psalm 1 gives us the key to being strong, but what does it look like to be strong in the faith? As we jump into the book of Psalms, Emma Dotter invites listeners to check the status of their hearts. What do you love? Because what you love you will spend time with. Being strong in our love for God and his Word helps us grow in our strength in our faith.

S3:086 Job 41-42 May 03, 2024

Show notes

What does the Bible have to say about entitlement? Today, Hannah Staubs is joined by faithful Watermark member Nate Roberts to talk through Job 41 and 42. It’s easy to think that if we obey God, we deserve a good life. Gratitude turns what you have into enough, but entitlement ruins our ability to see God. If our identity is rooted in Christ, we are reminded that our hope is not in worldly things of this life but in eternal life with Christ.
Additional Scripture in Podcast:
John 10:10 – Jesus gives abundant life in Himself.

S3:085 Job 39-40 May 02, 2024

Show notes

Emma Dotter interviews Scott Breedlove, one of Join the Journey’s longest-serving editors, serving since 2009. Scott gives the insight that God has not just a “good” plan, but the greatest plan for our good and His glory. Although Job has a preliminary response to God’s rhetorical questions, what do we do when we are asked the same hard questions? Scott answers these questions and more in today’s podcast.
