This season I decided to do something a little different and start incorporating some expansions on the weekly Bible verse that I send out in my newsletter on Mondays. I thought instead of just looking at that one verse, and how it relates to us now, it would be good to look at the whole chapter and dig a little deeper into what that Bible verse actually means. Almost like a mini bible study. This week we will be expanding on the Bible verse Jeremiah 29:11. "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, "Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." To sign up receive the weekly newsletter click here.

Join me as I sit down with Dr. Trevor Hislop and we talk about changing ministries. It's something that isn't talked about often, but we see it happen all the time within the church.  When you work in ministry, it's more than a job, it's your life. You build relationships and you become part of the lives of those who are apart of the church as well. So when you are called to a different church or ministry, leaving can not only be difficult for you and your family, but for those who served with and alongside of you for many years. Hearts are involved, and sometimes it can cause confusion and hurt. Dr. Hislop talks openly about his recent decision to leave his position within the church and being left with the question, "What now?"  To find out more about LiveWell Behavioral Health you can visit https://www.livewellbehavioralhealth.com/about-us To Learn more about Pastor Serve you can visit https://pastorserve.org/about/ --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

We all have this picture in our head of what Cancer looks like. But after talking with Jill Stockwell I quickly realized that every cancer journey is different and has its own ups and downs that are lived through. Jill opened up in this episode not only about the specifics behind her rare type of cancer but the toll that treatments have taken on her physically and mentally. She talks about her own personal struggles and how, at times, she was left waiting. Waiting for test results, waiting for a treatment plan, and waiting for what's next. It's how she has been able to sit in those waiting periods that I found most encouraging.

When I think about the Christmas story, I think about it with sweetness and affection. But reading through the story on my own and really diving into what was happening and why it made me realize that the Christmas story, although is a story of hope, is really a story of faithfulness and overcoming obstacles in order to fulfill God's calling. The hope not only comes from Jesus being born and what that means for us as sinners but the hope also comes from seeing how God can make the impossible possible and that if God wants it to happen, it will happen. Join me as I read through the Bible, recounting the events that needed to happen before and after Jesus was born in order for Years of Prophecy to be fulfilled and the world to have its Savior. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
