    Ivy Insights

    The Richard Ellis Talks podcast has been a transformative and inspiring source of spiritual nourishment for me over the past year. I have been consistently listening to this podcast several days a week, and it is evident that Richard's authentic love for Jesus and His church shines through in every episode. His powerful messages of hope, love, mercy, and grace have touched my heart and deepened my faith. It is truly amazing how God has orchestrated our paths to intersect, as I recently discovered that Richard is good friends with the Tolson's. The small world we live in and the amazing work of God never cease to amaze me. From the depths of my heart, I want to express my gratitude to Richard for his ministry.

    One of the best aspects of The Richard Ellis Talks podcast is the passion that Richard brings to his teaching. Whether he is speaking about his own personal experiences or diving into biblical doctrine, his voice is filled with genuine enthusiasm and conviction. This passion resonates with listeners and draws them in, making each episode engaging and impactful. Additionally, Richard's transparency about his own life, marriage, and parenting adds a relatable dimension to his teachings. It allows listeners to see the practical application of biblical principles in real-life situations.

    As with any podcast or ministry, there are always areas that may not resonate as well with every listener. One potential downside of The Richard Ellis Talks podcast could be its straightforward preaching style. While some might appreciate this no-nonsense approach that "rightly divides the Word of God," others may prefer a more conversational or gentle tone. It may not suit everyone's personal preferences or learning style.

    In conclusion, The Richard Ellis Talks podcast has been a tremendous blessing in my life. Through Richard's powerful messages and unwavering faith in Jesus Christ, I have experienced spiritual growth and encouragement on a daily basis. His teachings challenge me to deepen my relationship with God and live out my faith in practical ways. I am grateful for the impact this podcast has had on my life and highly recommend it to anyone seeking sound biblical teaching and a greater understanding of God's love and grace.

    There are times in our lives when we face suffering and pain, and we may pray fervently that God would just take it all away. Sometimes it is His purpose that we face those things in order to bring us closer to Him, and we know that we never face them alone.

    The world offers all sorts of pleasures, falsely promising to be satisfying but always finding to be leaving you more empty than before. God offers us a full and abundant life through Jesus Christ. Because of His death and resurrection, we can live a life where our soul is satisfied in the Most High.

    Mother's Day can be a difficult day for many women, as well as men, as it can bring up painful topics of loss. God addressed problems of motherhood in many places in Scripture, and He proved His ability and power to perform miracles. When we are in His family, He looks after us and discipline our disobedience because He requires obedience from all His children.

    The sin of prejudice in all of us keeps us from being the unified Body of Christ that God calls His Church to be. We need to let go of our differences and love each other equally so that the world looks at us and sees that there is no way we could be unified like this unless God is at work. When we love each other and worship together, it is as if we are practicing for the way it will be in Heaven.

    There is a difference between humble confidence and fake humility, and confidence is rightly available to us in Christ. There is nothing wrong with seeing ourselves how God sees us, and once we realize He loves us and we grow to love Him, we can then love others just as we love ourselves.

    Instead of being intimidated by the Bible we need to open it up and read it, allowing God to use it in our lives to speak to us and change us. If there is something we don't understand then we need to find someone who can teach it to us. The Bible is full of treasures that God has given to us to reveal Himself and His love for us.

    Not Fair

    If there are things about ourselves that we are displeased with but can change, we should change those things. But for the things we cannot change we must learn to accept them and ask God how He can use those things for His glory. We can't spend our whole lives complaining about the things that feel unfair.

    Image Is Everything

    We all try to portray a certain image through the way we look, the things we have and the careers we choose. When God made us He put His own image inside each of us and the only way we can reflect who He is in us is if Christ is working and changing us from the inside out.

    Just as going without food for a length of time can make us hungry, we can feel the spiritual need we have for God the more we go without Him. The problem is that we try to fill that need with other things. Jesus is the only one who can truly satisfy us and so we need to go to Him and allow Him to wine and dine.

    There are plenty of things about Scripture and the Gospel story that could bring a person to question its truth. If we are truly seeking God, He will reveal Himself to us. Then we must choose to put our faith in Him, follow Him, and love Him, ourselves and others as He calls us to.

    To Boldly Go

    When Jesus lives and is working in us, we can't help but to speak up and tell others about it. God will bring opportunities our way to tell others about Him and we need to have the boldness to step out of our comfort zones and say something.

    To A Head

    The way God designed the family to work is for the man to be the head and take the responsibility. The only way this can work in the greatest way is if that man is following God as his head. God is good and full of grace to help pick the man up when he has stumbled so that he can continue moving forward, following after God's model of perfect love.

    Encouragement, like dessert, is something that we can all live without but is wonderful when it happens. God can use things in our own lives to encourage us out of the blue, and when we are fulfilled by His encouragement then He can use us to help encourage others, too.

    There is a difference between reading the Bible and applying what it says to our lives. We only start growing spiritually when we allow what we are reading to be applied to our lives. Once Scripture starts making a difference in us, we can begin to seek out other people to help them learn to do the same.

    Once we become Christians we are only supposed to act like babies for so long until we begin to grow and mature. Too often Christians allow malice, envy and anger in their hearts that prevent them from growing. Baby Christians need to find someone to feed them pure milk, and then, letting go of certain sins in their heart, grow from there.

    The Old Testament spoke of multiple temples that were built over different time periods used to worship the Lord and hold His presence. Now that through Christ we are offered salvation and relationship with God, our bodies become the temple of God where His Spirit resides. We must now walk through this dark world to bring light and rescue the lost.

    We tend to be excellent at things that will not last forever such as our jobs, our families, or even our sin.

    When we choose to follow Jesus, we begin to learn the sound of His voice so that we walk in obedience to what He calls us to do. Our relationship with Him grows the more that we stay in two-way communication with Him and not just hear what He says but actually do it.

    As Christians, we may face push back from people anywhere but when we take a stand no matter what it may cost us, it brings glory to God and we fulfill our ultimate purpose.

    God did not have to create things so intricately, so beautiful, or even pleasure-filled, yet every bit of His creation speaks of His love for us. All we have to do is look around at the ways that He has blessed us, even in such a small thing as popcorn that is a seemingly silly treat.

    Too often, we hold onto the life we have, no matter how hard or consequential, because we're more afraid of the unknown.

    Instead of looking at people who are different as a barrier to connecting with them ourselves or for Jesus, we need to view people as equal in God's eyes. He made us all in His image, and it is only because of sin in society that has created barriers between the beauty of His creation on display in humanity.

    Freedom

    Even after accepting salvation, we often remain in our cell of bondage. That bondage could be to a number of things such as sin, religion, guilt, etc. Until we come to a full realization of God's love for us and His gift of freedom to us even in this world, we will remain in our cell. However, living in freedom does not mean that we should do whatever we want. God's grace still covers us, but there are consequences. Rather than falling on either side of the spectrum, God teaches us to live in freedom, but in the kind of freedom that is beneficial.

    Once we are saved, there is nothing that we can ever do or that can ever be done to cause us to lose our salvation. When we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, we become children of God, and there are various “DNA” tests that we can check to make sure that He lives in us. We need to pray to God, proclaim that Jesus is Lord, ask for forgiveness of our sins, begin a relationship with Him and move forward in that.

    Many people see Christians as hypocrites, and that is because we proclaim one thing and do another in secret.
