    Welcome to another episode of Refuse Ordinary: Season 3! This season we're joining in on one of the many classes taught to levels 1-4 of the full time School of Transformation.     In this episode, we will be sitting in on a class called "Discernment vs. Judgement", taught by Pastor Nathan Taylor.  Pastor Nathan breaks down the critical difference between the two—what we're called to do, what we should be on the lookout for, and what we need to avoid. He challenges us to reflect on what we're producing in our lives, because it's the fruit we bear that reveals whether we are in step with the Holy Spirit. But here's the big question: Do we even know what good fruit is supposed to look like? Let's find out together.   If you have any questions about this topic, or about the School of Transformation, email us at info@transformationschool.org Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SchoolOfTransformationOroville/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sotoroville/

In this episode, we will be sitting in on a class called "Barriers to Spiritual Growth", taught by Pastor Stefanie Mumby. The greatest barrier to spiritual growth is self-righteousness. We can't hold on to both our own righteousness and the righteousness Jesus offers — it's one or the other. Are we relying on our own strength, or are we receiving what He's already provided? The real barrier is our tendency to stay in control, to depend on ourselves instead of leaning fully on Jesus.

We get to choose to love others and meet the needs in front of us, just as Jesus chose to lay His life down for us. It's about following Jesus and His will for us, which is to serve those He wants us to serve.

This class discusses the obstacles that get in the way of using the giftings that God has given us, such as the gift of prophecy. If we hold onto and believe the lies the enemy tells us, we may miss out on how the Lord wants to use us. The goal is to be able to live in freedom, letting the Holy Spirit move through us, and not miss out on what God has for our life.    If you have any questions about this topic, or about the School of Transformation, don't hesitate to email us at info@transformationschool.org.   In this class, the name Isabel is mentioned.

We get to choose to let Him come closer, and we get to choose to figure out what is blocking us. The goal is to walk in freedom and in His plans and purpose for our life.   At the end of this lesson, Chloe gives a few questions to ask the Lord: 1. Is there anything that is blocking me? 2. Jesus, would you reveal the lies or beliefs that I may have about You, others, or myself? 3. Jesus, how can I move forward? 4. Is there anything that I need to repent for?   If you have any questions about this topic, or about the School of Transformation, don't hesitate to email us at info@transformationschool.org.
