Introduction | How we know each other 4:15 Faith muscle that grows during struggles 4:48 if you're not in a storm yet, you'll be heading into another one or coming out of one. 5:10  Above the Turbulence: Your Ticket out of Pain to Purpose 6:06 Fly higher and you'll be able to weather the storm 6:40 Gain perspective and look down on your earth's circumstances 7:11 The eagle flies directly into storms and spreads his wings out and does nothing. The currents of the wind helps them rise up. They have the best predator eyesight too. They also sit and for 40 days and 40 nights like Jesus 8:30 The phrase "mount up with wings like eagles" appears in Isaiah 40:31 of the Bible, which reads, "Those who wait on the Lord will renew their strength. They will mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint". 9:12 Be careful what you allow in your mind.  9:42 Travel agent metaphors 10:42 Carolyn's self-deprecating journey that lead to this book. 11:42 She asked herself, how did Jesus teach a lesson, through stories. 12:05 Head knowledge vs. applying that knowledge. 12:40 spiraling into the what ifs solutions in her book 13:00 Faith is an action word. 13:17 Turn off your thoughts if they are not productive 13:32 Be the air traffic controller of your mind 13:53 Change the channel 14:35 Messages when her mom was in the hospital. She leaned on: • Proverbs 3:4: "Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man"."Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding".

When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with me where I am. And you know the way to where I am going.” and Corin 2:4 The enemy actively participates in blinding the minds of those who don't believe in Jesus, to keep them from coming to faith in Christ. His purpose is to keep them from seeing the light.  23:45 In the Beginning Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. 25:30 God had a plan of redemption and He wants to be loved by us. 26:34 In your pain-Rom 8:28 "And we know that for those who love God, all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose" 27:21 No plane has crashed in turbulence 28:21 Not a citizen of earth.  Phil 3:20 But we are citizens of heaven, where the Lord Jesus Christ lives.

9:11 What is Born a Again? 10:37 The Serpeant and the Dust - Genesis 3:14, of the curse given to the serpent that he would crawl on his belly and eat dust all his life. 11:22 Even though we walk with Christ, we still will have issues. Trust and walk with Him. Learn Him.  12:03 Christianity isn't religion. Fire and brimstone is often fear-based.  12:56 God was fully man and fully God in Jesus.

The thief was aware of his repeated, habitual sin and his inability to save himself. The thief realized that his sin had to be punished. 19:10 Take off the do not disturb sign 19:25 2 Corinthians 12:9: But he said to me, j“My grace is sufficient for you, for kmy power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that lthe power of Christ may rest upon me. 19:40 For when I am weak, then I am strong” (2 Corinthians 12:9-10). 20:00 prayer 22:59 come as you are.

Yes, and he will show him even greater works than these, so that you will be amazed. 31:40 Matthew 17:21 [AMP] But this kind of demon does not go out except by prayer and fasting. ” 32:00 How to fast 33:12 Counteracting negative interactions 33:55 “Date night” 34:26 We are the bride of Christ | Ephesians 5:22–33 35:55 How God is with us like parent/child 36:58 How God wows us with our children, the gift they had. 37:55 Tampatha has the mother anointing 38: 15 Matthew 14:14-21 And when Jesus went out He saw a great multitude; and He was moved with compassion for them, and healed their sick. 39:00 Warfare is Alive today 40:00 John 10:10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. 40:57 Ephesians 6:12 (KJV) For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. 41:51 Imposter/copy cat 42:00 God has equipped us with everything we need in our relationship with Him. 42:48 Speak the word to dispel the lies. 43:50 Pray Psalm 91 44:00 Baby Christians - don't give up 47:15 Ephesians 2:8-9: For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

You must have been under some evil spell! Didn't God open your eyes to see the meaning of Jesus' crucifixion? Wasn't he revealed to you as the crucified one? 2 So answer me this: Did the Holy Spirit come to you as a reward for keeping all the Jewish laws? No, you received him as a gift because you believed in the Messiah. 3 Your new life in the Anointed One began with the Holy Spirit giving you a new birth. Why then would you so foolishly turn from living in the Spirit by trying to finish by your own works? 4 Have you endured all these trials and persecutions for nothing? 5 Let me ask you again: What does the lavish supply of the Holy Spirit in your life, and the miracles of God's tremendous power, have to do with you keeping religious laws? The Holy Spirit is poured out upon us through the revelation and power of faith, not by keeping the law! 18:18 We don't believe we are blameless in his sight. 19:13 I am your advocate to God. 21:45 We cannot give love without tapping into the source. 22:00 Our sinful desires can be anxiety, bitterness, resentment, etc. 22:55 Galatians The Word became flesh 28:15 Galatians 3:26 30:39 Love others like we love ourselves (but do we love ourselves?) 31:45 Self Rejection Freedom 32:22 Forgive others in order to be forgiven 38:11 “Over this religious stuff” 45:00 “No Parties” Covid Rules 46:59 Rules exist to guide us to love people better not to obey the laws. 49:00 Ohio State Fans-Packer Fans-Whose We Are Where Can I Find Stephanie?

That generation didn't helicopter, but let kids figure it out on their own and I think that helped us mature at a much younger age. If there was a lot of advice, it was so subtle, I didn't notice. Parents back then taught by example. There were also many things that you just "knew", like making money as soon as you could to help pay your expenses and save for college.

Bishop Ed and I have a conversation about two forms of justice: for a penalty (slap on the hand) but also justice for helping others: orphans, widows, sojourners, refugees, etc. and how can we be more helpful in practical areas right where we are, breaking generational curses, renewing our minds and living in our authority in Jesus Christ.  By reflecting not deflecting, we can truly make a difference by listening to each other.
