Listen, I know that there are some people in our lives, and in our world, that we classify as hard to love, yet God gives us the mandate as Christians to love our enemies and our neighbors. But in order to do that, we need to know what Biblical love is and receive a redeemed love from God Himself! Jada Edwards joins me on the podcast this week to discuss this so we can heal, forgive, and love like Christ better and biblically!

"God gets into the specifics of what's going on in our hearts and says, 'this is what's keeping you from fully walking in my love.'" — Jada EdwardsToday's Episode: What's hindering your relationship with God? In today's episode, Jada Edwards encourages us to ask God to tell us. She challenges us to ask God to reveal those barriers and to heal whatever shame, pain, sin, or trauma we're holding onto. The hope is that we would grow closer to God, experience more of his love, and in turn love others more deeply and freely. Jada helps us see from her own life and example how this is possible when we ask God to show us our hearts. This month's memory verse: “This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters.” — 1 John 3:16 Today's guest: Jada Edwards is an author, speaker, Bible teacher, and mentor. Studying and teaching the Bible to women is one of her greatest passions, along with discipleship and living on mission. While she is a lively and sought-after speaker, the local church is her home. She and her husband, Conway, planted One Community Church in Plano, TX, where she leads a regular women's Bible study and serves on the teaching team and as the Creative Services Director.

It's not uncommon to believe "I would never do...", from a posture of pride, while judging our spouse's actions. Or, "Okay. I'll lower myself to your point of view", which also finds its source in pride. Leaning into self-awareness is not an easy journey, but uncovering your blind spots is one step toward transforming your relationship. Jada Edwards, one of the teaching pastors at One Community Church in Plano, Texas shares a wealth of wisdom on marriage. She and her husband went through a rough season in their marriage, out of which Jada gleaned deep and practical insights that we discuss in this episode. "Do you think you have a PhD in your spouse? If you've been married for 5 years, you basically have a kindergarten level of that knowing." When you realize that your level of understanding of your partner is quite a bit less mature than you think, let that be motivation for you to ask more curious questions.
We're on Week 8 of a powerful teaching by Jada Edwards on the Book of Revelation, Chapter 19 and 20! Revelation is one of the most powerful & debated books of the Bible. In this series Pastor Conway combines history, theology and world events to motivate Christians to follow the promises of Jesus (The Lion of the Tribe of Judah) and to remain faithful in the midst of chaos, hardship and persecution.

Remember that thing that should have broken you, but instead only left you bruised? Those cracks in (what you believed to be) your foundation that held despite the best efforts of the pressure coming from the other side? It is in those moments when life seems overwhelming that we have the greatest opportunity to showcase God's power to those who are unfamiliar. Our value is not in what we have overcome but in the power of the one who equipped us for the victory.As we continue our restoration series, Soul Care, Jada Edwards delivers an inspiring message reminding us that a life without pressure is a life without purpose. We can and we must endure whatever pressures may mount up against us, and we must do so in Jesus' name so that others may come to know His goodness for themselves.

When we allow what we have been through and what we come from to influence us, we struggle to understand our assignment in life. We believe that our age decides what we should live for and what is right for us, and that results in us living an unfulfilled life because we didn't accomplish what we were called for. God is here to guide us to our destiny as long as we are humble. God has a purpose for everyone to create something incredible in His honor to spread his word, and it's up to us to decide how we will honor Him for the rest of our lives. Join us as Pastor Jada shares with us the importance of being humble and living for God regardless of how we were brought up in life.
To close out season 3, Jada sits down for a candid conversation to discuss the impact father wounds have on our daily life, our relationship with God, and how to move forward in a healthy way. Check out the full episode of anything you might have missed this season!

The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.'There is no commandment greater than these.” Questions and Topics We Discuss: Do you believe God talks to all of His children?

Gospel Scripture: (all NIV) Romans 3:23 “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,” Romans 3:24 “and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.” Romans 3:25 (a) “God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, through faith in his blood.” Hebrews 9:22 (b) “without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.” Romans 5:8 “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:11 “Not only is this so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.” John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” Romans 10:9 “That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” Luke 15:10 says “In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” Romans 8:1 “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus” Ephesians 1:13–14 “And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession- to the praise of his glory.” Ephesians 1:15–23 “For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.” Ephesians 2:8–10 “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God‘s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.“ Ephesians 2:13 “But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.“ Philippians 1:6 “being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”

Jada is an author, speaker and fellow podcaster! She is passionate about God as well as studying and teaching the Bible. This passion led to her writing books that include bible studies, books on marriage and leadership. It's not at all surprising that Jada has written these books, she excels at communicating clear, helpful, realistic steps that motivate and encourage! All of these aspects are helpful as we study the Bible, work on our marriage and develop leadership. She clearly knows the book she loves: The Bible, because her wisdom is all based on its Truths! She takes this gift of communication and shares it with everyone and anyone! And though she goes and does frequently, she is happy to be planted at her local church that she and her husband started in 2008. She is very active in serving her church, using her abilities and blessing all those around her. We are SO glad she's here with us and cannot wait to hear some of her story!
