Welcome back family! We are super excited to begin SEASON 2 of Let's Talk but God's Way. God has planted you exactly where you need to be at this moment. We may not like the season of life we are in, but God doesn't give us a guarantee that the Christian life will be easy. He does, however, promise us that He will be with us in every season. He will strengthen your faith, and as your faith grows, you'll be able to bloom where God plants you and bloom with grace. This episode encourages you to take advantage of the opportunities those seasons play in your life and be grateful for the present situation.

Join us as we share tips on how to be your authentic self and how to become bolder in Christ. Thank you for listening and connecting with us this season. We can't wait to welcome you back on the next! It's been an amazing time introducing this platform to you all!

We all live for something, but what does it mean to live for Christ? Many times we base our relationship with God on feeling and emotion, but where does that leave us when we can't necessarily feel God's presence? Living for Christ is about honoring and pleasing God with your life regardless of the feelings we have. We as Christians should be a representation of the body of Christ. In this episode, Kellie, MiKayla, and Lexcee discuss how living for God is about following and accepting Jesus daily and what it means to us as individuals. Hope y'all enjoy!

When it comes to your route to Heaven, would you consider it a rough ride or an enjoyable trip? All Christians are not the same and we all take different journeys to get to our final destination, which is Heaven. It's ultimately up to us according to how we live our day-to-day lives and also how much we invite God into our circumstances and struggles. In this episode, Kellie and Mikayla invite Lexcee to discuss each other's journeys and explain the different types of Christians.

Joining us again is Lexcee Grant. Today's topic is one of the most important topics in our world, are you ready for the return of Jesus Christ? Although it leaves much of us scared and confused, we come united to give you clarity and comfort regarding the return of our savior. If Jesus returned right now, would you be secure in the life you have lived? It's a tough question to comprehend and personally often scares each of us because we all feel like we should be giving more of ourselves to God. Where do we go when we have these questions, straight to the source! The Bible will have exactly what we need to know and instructions about how we should prepare ourselves for his return, and the wonderful things God has in store for his people. We hope it will be a blessing to you and that it will help open your eyes to the time in which we live.

In today's episode with Kellie and Mikayla, we have joined with us, is our dear friend Lexcee Grant where we introduce the topic of joy in our journey. Our journey all starts somewhere though that journey doesn't come without heartache. BUT the important thing to remember is that those troubles and trials can produce joy if we let them. It's one thing to experience joy just because it's sunny outside and you've got the windows rolled down, but it's a whole other level of joy when we choose it in the middle of terrible news or in the midst of heartbreak. Without troubles, our endurance can't grow, and without endurance, our faith will fail. There is a purpose in your journey, we encourage you to embrace it.  Scripture Reference: Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 James 1:2-3  Psalm 16:11 ESV  James 1:2 NIV  John 16:24 Proverbs 17:22 Matthew 20:1-16 --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/lets-talk-but-gods-way/support

Have you ever wanted something so badly, only to feel empty when you finally receive it? There is constant pressure to follow certain people, buy certain products, or do certain activities to guarantee success, happiness, and joy. These empty promises easily betray us because they cannot ultimately satisfy what only our Creator can. The act of vanity is the recognition of only one's achievements or appearance without the acknowledgment to God. The truth is when vanity rules us, God does not. In today's episode, we have joined with us Lexcee Grant to share our take on vanity and what experiences we have had with vanity within ourselves.

Fasting is seen all throughout the Bible as a physical way of reminding us of our spiritual need. In fact as Christians, Jesus calls and expects us to fast but exactly how do we do this and even more, where to begin? While there is a number of reasons for Christian fasting, the three primary categories fall under Biblical direction, spiritual disciplines, and health benefits. Follow along today's episode where we share different types of fasting, including when and why we should fast to replenish and fill our spirit! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/lets-talk-but-gods-way/support
