Hey God

Growing up, I went through the motions with my faith and lived like the Bible wasn't true, and this is the theme of the Church we see across America today. Why is this? What do we do about this? Something must change, so let's dive into this week's powerful topic and draw closer to Jesus together.

Do you feel like you spend everyday trying to earn validation from others? It's an exhausting cycle that never ends, until you start living to please God instead. Let's dive into how to break the people pleasing trap.

Following Jesus does not excuse us from suffering on this earth. So what if God doesn't heal us? What if God doesn't give us what we want? Where is our hope? Is it in what God can give us? Or is it in Jesus Christ alone? Let's dive in.

Why do we over complicate everything? Our minds run with anxious thoughts that feel like they need to be entertained. We often forget the simple truths about the way we should be living, and what should occupy our mind on a daily basis. Be refreshed with this reminder, and let it simplify the way you live everyday.

Pride is the root of all sin. It leaks into areas of our lives without us even knowing. We strive to live as righteously as possible, and we flee from habitual sins that once trapped us, then we get prideful about how good we are doing in our own eyes. It's crazy! Let's talk about it.

Do you ever just feel like throwing in the towel? Do you ever feel like God isn't listening when you pray the same prayer over and over again but see no results? Maybe you just want to give up on your dream, your ministry, your marriage, maybe even your life. Let this episode be encouragement for you to not give up, but for you to keep fighting with faith.

As hard as we try, it can feel impossible to forgive other sometimes. Knowing that we can't do it in our own strength, we must look to the one who paid it all for us to spend Eternity with Him. Let's dive into some different ways of thinking that can help us forgive those who have hurt us.

The good news of the gospel. The reason we are saved for eternity. The news is too good to not share. Jesus has saved the lives of those who choose to accept Him as their savior. Here is the good news of the gospel explained.

Have you ever begged God to take away a pain or struggle in your life, but it feels like He isn't answering the prayer? No matter how many times you plead, nothing changes? In thsi episode, we dive into 2 Corinthians 12 and look at the thorn in Paul's side. Listen to understand how your weakness actually is a good thing, even though it doesn't always feel like it.

Skipping the gym, eating garbage food, being mean to someone we love, skipping Bible and prayer time... all of these things that make us feel bad, but we do them anyway... and often. Why is this? In this episode, we talk about Romans 7, Paul's realization that there is another power at war within him. This is a revelation you will want to hear.

It's in our human nature to want to know what's ahead. We want to know where God is taking us, and what His will and plan are for our lives.

Then we remember that we are saved by grace through faith in Jesus, so how do we comprehend this? This episode gives you a new perspective on your good works. We break down the fruits of the Spirit, which is evidence that you follow Jesus, but not your ticket to Heaven.

In this episode, we dive into the power God has blessed us with, in His Son Jesus, to resist the enemy and His ploys over our life.
