46. Living a Significant Life Oct 31, 2022

Show notes

We're starting a series on one of Jen’s very favorite books of the Bible: Colossians, one of the richest, theologically, deep books on the supremacy of Christ that we have!

One cool thing about this particular letter is that Paul, who's writing this letter, had never actually been to Colossae.

Tune in today and you’ll hear:

An intro to Colossians as a rich book full of all kinds of lessons.

About our foundation on Christ being adequate.
Discussion on what your beliefs are about eternity and where your hope is set.

About the hope we have for the future.

Our hope as a believer is not the wishful thinking kind. It is a hope that is secure. And that is the difference between our hope as a believer versus any other kind of hope out there. We have solid ground to know one day our hopes will become reality.

45. Sermon on the Mount: Life as it could, should, and will be Oct 24, 2022

Show notes

On today’s episode, join Jen as she teaches on the Sermon on the Mount. The Sermon of the Mount is one of the most well-known but often misunderstood and misapplied passages of Scripture.

Matthew's 5-7 is the longest recorded sermon of Jesus and often used unwisely as moral standards, maxims and teachings - if we live up to them, then Jesus will accept us.
Tune in today and you’ll hear:

What is the purpose of the Sermon on the Mount?
Where does it fit into God's overall plan?
How/What should we understand about the kingdom of God?

When we study the Sermon of the Mount with a right perspective, it is intended to give us a picture of what life in the Kingdom will one day look like by telling us how to live together as a church now.

44. Culture, Identity, and Submitting to God’s authority Oct 17, 2022

Show notes

Today on the show we’re talking about an idea central to the Lord's Prayer. Heads up: It’s a tough topic!
We want to show the world the beauty of submission to God’s authority with humility and grace.

In today’s episode you’ll hear:

Beautiful reminders for us not to allow all the noise to cause confusion and let God's word speak for itself.

How the rejection of authority over time will affect the future.

A contrast is made between those of us who are living under the authority of God and those who aren’t.

The challenge to ask ourselves whether we are in the camp of submitting to the Lord and His kingdom? Or in the camp of saying, “nobody's gonna tell me what to do”?

Tune in today and listen to Jen and AJ discussing the fact that God is all of our creators and yet, we have decided as a culture, we are not giving Him that.

39. How Journaling helps you know God Sep 23, 2022

Show notes

{FREE} Spiritual Growth Companion Guide: www.sojoacademy.com/momentum
Today we're talking about one of the basic Spiritual disciplines we think EVERYONE needs to get back to: journaling.

In today’s new extra episode you’ll hear:

The reasons why we should journal.
The different styles/ways of journaling.
How journaling helps you process what's your deeper spiritual issues
A snippet from our Spiritual Growth Accelerator (SGA) guest Lisa Apello about deepening your walk with Christ through the practice of journaling.

… and MUCH MORE!

The Bible tells us to examine ourselves, and our hearts. If we can't slow down long enough to acknowledge how we are feeling, what’s going on internally… time to really think through, “why am I doing this?”, “Why did I respond to anger in that?”, then we're not truly examining ourselves. And journaling is a tool to help us slow down.
