God really put the book of Job on my heart. I've read it a bunch of times and hear people talk about it all the time, but usually, it's framed like God was “betting” on Job or just making him suffer for no reason. And honestly, when you hear it that way, it's clear a lot of folks miss the bigger picture of what's really going on. In this episode, we're diving into chapters 1-8 of Job, and I'm breaking down his journey to loving God unconditionally.Key Scriptures Mentioned: Chapters 25/26 Chapters 27/28 Chapters 29/30 Chapters 31/32Resources: Join The Waitlist For Dreaming To Achieving - https://expert-builder-3666.ck.page/dtawaitlistStart Your Own Podcast Course - https://www.skillshare.com/en/classes/How-To-Start-A-Podcast-For-Beginners/1142543427?teacherRef=958930354&via=teacher-referral&utm_campaign=teacher-referral-1142543427&utm_source=Skillshare&utm_medium=class-teacher-referral-emailThe Royal Faith Journal - https://prosperingwithchrist.systeme.io/theroyalfaithjournalProspering With Christ Facebook Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/prosperingwithchristConnect With Us:Instagram | @ProsperingwithchristTiktok | @ProsperingwithchristYouTube | Prospering With ChristFacebook | Prospering With ChristMusic: Intro: Milkyway By Batik Music ( https://soundcloud.com/batikmusic/milkyway )

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviews Tiffani Neal. Barlow's Foods started as a passion project and quickly turned into a business with a mission to provide better tasting and better breakfast food options.  Barlow's Foods creates a 3-in-1 pancake, biscuit, waffle mix, and assorted syrups. The difference between Barlow's and what you'll commonly find available is the quality of our ingredients. They use less refined ingredients such as unbleached organic, unenriched red wheat flour and Himalayan salt. Their ingredients are hand-sifted and selected. They believe in seasonal eating and how food was back in the day. You'll find their award-winning peach cobbler year-round. All of their syrups are made from whole ingredients. They support local farmers when possible and give back to the veteran community. #BEST #STRAWSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Kier "Junior" Spates. Co-Host of Steve Harvey Morning Show and founded Kier's Hope to provide underprivileged individuals who suffer from Sickle Cell Disease to ensure they receive the medical, physical, and emotional attention they deserve. Suffering from sickle cell disease in silence is not uncommon in the African-American Community as there is a lack of knowledge of the disease. So, he created the Kier's Hope Foundation. The annual Kier's Hope 5K Fun Run and Walk and Junior Claus is an opportunity for families and those with sickle cell disease to gather and learn more about new treatments, spread awareness, and increase community engagement. Sickle Cell Disease is misunderstood as being contagious, an automatic death sentence, and that people with SCD can't do what "normal" people do!  Kier is changing that narrative. #AMI #BEST #SHMS  #STRAW  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
