This episode I talk with Tony Swisher, host of the podcast The Simple Gospel: a Share the Love Podcast, to talk about God's Plan, how you know you are working inside it, and how Jesus modeled not only how to work inside God's plan, but to get a feel for God's timing. Understanding God's plan in your life and whether or not you are inside it is a challenge we all come to. How do you know if you are doing what God has called you to do? Is it really what he wants or did you guess wrong? How can you look at Jesus to model this one, isn't he God too? All good questions. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mitch-resler/support

In this week's podcast episode, I take a look at the distinction between Religion and Relationship, how that may be a stumbling block for new Christians, and how Jesus looked at it while he was on earth.
