In this fourth installment of The Blueprint of Becoming, we dive deep into the life-changing power of intimacy with Christ. This isn't just about knowing about God—it's about being known by Him. Tune in as we explore the transformational nature of true intimacy with Christ. Beyond surface-level faith, this conversation challenges you to examine whether you are walking in real friendship with God—or simply knowing about Him from a distance. We unpack the difference between head knowledge and heart transformation, the weight of obedience in cultivating closeness with God, and how reverence and trust form the foundation of spiritual intimacy. You'll hear reflections on the sobering realization that not everyone is a friend of God—and the grace that invites us into deeper communion with Him. Whether you've been walking with God for years or you're just beginning to seek Him for yourself, this episode invites you to go deeper—to know and be known by the only One who truly matters.

GOD: An Autobiography, As Told to a Philosopher - The Podcast, S1
Questions? Comments? Text Us!In the newest What's On Your Mind, host Scott Langdon sits down with Dr. Jerry L. Martin for a deep and heartfelt conversation about divine growth, spiritual tension, and the unfolding mystery of God's nature.As they revisit God's revelation to the ancient prophet Zoroaster, the discussion opens with Jerry's experience of spiritual anxiety, and how his body reacted to the unknown before divine communication began. This leads into a powerful exploration of how God Himself describes being not all-powerful, not all-knowing, and not all-good; at least not in the absolute sense. Instead, God is growing, evolving, and seeking fullness through relationship, through the world, and through us.Through Zoroaster's divine encounter, God comes to see His “other side.” A concept that challenges traditional theology but resonates deeply with those who see spirituality as a journey, not a fixed set of beliefs. Scott and Jerry explore themes like duality, good and evil, panentheism, and the reality of imperfection in divine creation.Drawing from metaphors in music, embodiment, and human love, the conversation touches on Beethoven, spiritual embodiment, and how meaning is co-created through lived experience. This episode will speak to anyone curious about the divine, questioning inherited beliefs, or wondering if God can grow with us.

We have an incredible guest for episode 130, author John Eldredge. John wrote Wild at Heart which gave Jennifer the courage to follow her husband to Mexico. His Pause App has been a huge part of teaching us to slow down, listen and learn to commune with Jesus in the deep intimacy that we are created to live in. Over the years of homeschooling, growing as individuals, and a family, we have been so blessed by John's work. We hope that this episode blesses you, gives you the courage to remove distractions from your life so you can press into the quiet place and encounter Christ's healing and his comfort. We pray that you are inspired to seek greater rest, and enjoy more intimacy, and build the habits to make Christ your first port of call in the daily stress, anxiety and fear that so often overwhelms us as mom's in the grind and travails of daily life.

In this sermon from Hebrews 8, Pastor Benjamin Kandt explores the profound truth that God doesn't just manage the gap between heaven and earth—He closes it through Jesus. Drawing from the imagery of the tabernacle, Pastor Ben shows how God's desire has always been to dwell with His people. Just as Moses was commanded to build a tent patterned after heaven, we too are called to “heavenize” earth by following Jesus and forming communities of disciples who embody God's presence. The church, made up of living stones, becomes the spiritual house where heaven meets earth—not through bricks and rituals, but through Spirit-formed lives.The sermon also unpacks the better promises of the new covenant: new hearts, new belonging, new intimacy, and new mercy. Unlike the old covenant, which revealed the gap but couldn't bridge it, the new covenant transforms us from the inside out by the Holy Spirit. This indwelling presence of God is the ultimate gift, empowering us to reflect heaven in our workplaces, relationships, and communities. Pastor Ben reminds us that we're not just attending church—we are the church, the dwelling place of God Himself, being formed into a palace where He desires to live.

Niki's latest book is titled ‘God, Can We Chat?', and is a daringly honest guide to growing closer to God, one doubt at a time. Through her journey and study of scripture Niki has realized that God far prefers our honesty over silence, even when what we're being honest about is our doubts. In today's heartfelt and rich conversation Carol and Niki discuss practical ways to maintain intimacy with God amidst uncertainty and the significance of open conversations with Him, encouraging listeners to bring their struggles to God.Connect with Niki and order her books at https://www.nikihardy.com/ Connect with Carol at https://www.carolmcleodministries.com/ or email her at carolmcleod@carolmcleodministries.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/carolmcleodministriesInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/carolmcleodministriesYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQE6z9U5VR9tjoJB1NAsgMw

Have you ever found yourself wrestling with questions about your faith? Wondering if God is still near, still listening, still good? If so, I want you to know that you’re not alone. This week on The Love Offering podcast, I talked with Niki Hardy about her book, God, Can We Chat? It’s an honest, refreshing, and grace-filled invitation to bring our doubts and questions to God—without fear, shame, or pretending we have it all together. So often, we think our faith is only strong if we never question or waver. But Niki reminds us that God isn’t afraid of our questions—He welcomes them. Rather than weakening our faith, honest conversations with God can deepen and strengthen it. If you’re in a season where faith feels hard, where you feel distant from God or unsure of what you believe, I encourage you to tune in. You don’t have to have all the answers to come to Him—He asks that you come. I’d love to hear—have you ever had a “chat” with God that changed your perspective? Hit reply and let me know. I’m always grateful to walk this journey of faith with you.

John Eldredge joins us today. We're living in a moment where most people report either a lack of or no experience of Jesus in their daily lives. The war right now is for your attention. Every algorithm, every notification, every distraction is designed to keep you from the one thing your soul is actually craving: intimacy with Jesus. We've been grandchildren of the Enlightenment, disciples of the internet, consuming endless content about faith without actually experiencing the living, breathing presence of Christ. But what if - and this might sound wild - what if Jesus is actually waiting to meet you right now? Not in some distant, theological concept, but in the very moment you're listening to this. Your soul is wired for connection. You were created for intimacy with the Father, with Jesus, with the Holy Spirit. This isn't just for special saints or mystics - this is for you. Ordinary people can become ordinary mystics, experiencing God's presence in the most mundane moments of life. So buckle up. We're about to dive into a conversation that isn't just information - it's an invitation. An invitation to turn your heart, to create sacred space, and to encounter the living Jesus in a way that will absolutely transform everything. Are you ready? John Eldredge is a New York Times bestselling author, counselor, and teacher who has inspired millions to go deeper in their relationship with Jesus. He is also president of Wild at Heart, a ministry devoted to helping people discover the heart of God, recover their own hearts in God's love, and learn to live in God's kingdom.

At the heart of the spiritual journey is relationship. Growing in self-awareness is not an end in itself, but the heart and the means to deeper intimacy with God. As author and ministry leader T.J. MacLeslie and I talk about today, Christian spirituality involves a transformation of the self that occurs only when God and self are both deeply known. In this episode, T.J. generously invites us into his story as he shows us why the spiritual journey is so much more than conceptually knowing God, but experiencing encountering Him. He shares how he began to untangle who God is from wounding experiences within the church, and what it looks like to pursue a real relationship with God — one that goes far beyond religious activity.
