Join Joe McDonald as he discusses the delicate balance of sharing our spiritual journey in Steps 8 and 9 of Alcoholics Anonymous. Joe highlights the importance of discerning when and how to bring up the spiritual aspect of recovery, especially when making amends. The Big Book advises that sometimes, it's best to hold off on discussing spirituality during the first approach, as it may create prejudice or harm the process.In Alcoholics Anonymous, we are reminded that recovery involves more than just making amends—it's about personal growth, prayer, and meditation. Joe explains that as we serve others and practice daily inventory, we begin to sense when it's time to announce our faith. Often, those who have had negative experiences with spirituality will recognize the changes in us, not through our words, but through the transformation they see in our actions. The Big Book teaches us to live a new life that can inspire others, without forcing our beliefs onto them.To support and learn from journeys like Joe McDonald, please like, comment, and share.

Krista Tippett's work in the realm of spirituality and human experience is unparalleled. She just has a divine gift for distilling complex topics into clear, palatable information that we can sit with, dissect, and examine. She uses her OnBeing podcast as a place to conduct honest conversations with theologians and thought leaders about what it means to be human, what it means to be alive. Curiosity is welcome in her space. She brings a sense of calm to everything around her. So during the frenzy of the holidays, which can be both joyful and stressful, we wanted to circle back to this centering conversation with Krista to decompress and be at peace with the world. This conversation feels like an oasis in what is always a chaotic month so it's our gift to bring it back for you this week.  Segments: Bless and Release: Rules for holiday decorating and making the holidays magical GenXcellence: Essentials for outfitting a GenX space *** Thought-provoking Quotes: If a thing is feeling stressful and not joyful, it needs to be re-evaluated. – Jen Hatmaker I actually found in the Bible, reading it for myself directly, that it completely honored the questions, and it honored the anguish, and it was full of things that didn't make sense or were contradictory. And for me that was an opening to not feel that faith had to be in opposition to what didn't make sense or was contradictory. – Krista Tippett There has to be a way to represent the complexity of this, and also the centrality of it, the fact that it's more about questions than it is about answers, and the array of how we walk around with this, and what it means in our lives, and the ways we practice, and the vocabulary we have, and the different ways we pray. I wanted to show that you could talk about this and we could speak about the part of ourselves that we mean when we use language of religious or spiritual. – Krista Tippett The sensibility, the intentionality with which something is offered, shapes the reaction that comes at it. – Krista Tippett I do have a spiritual homeland and I do have a spiritual mother tongue.

Just Fishing, 2 of 4 from September 8th, 2024 “Jesus entrusts His mission to us, together.” John 4:27-42 by Michael Lockstampfor (@miklocks) SUMMARY Sometimes our spiritual lives can feel stale, like opening a bag of chips that's lost its crunch but Jesus invites us into a fresh, living relationship with Him. He offers 'living water' that satisfies our deepest thirsts and transforms us from the inside out. In this message we are reminded us that Jesus' heart is for all people - those we like and those we tend to avoid. The Samaritan woman's excitement about her encounter with Jesus led her to share with others, showing us that we don't need to have all the answers to share our faith - we just need to be excited about what Jesus is doing in our lives.

How to have Spiritual Conversations - Good News - Steven Gibbs | Stonecreek Church

July 21 | Serving Our Way into Spiritual Conversations by Browncroft Community Church

It's one thing to believe that God still speaks to us today, but it's quite another to know how to listen to His voice. Many believers, many long-time believers, have never been around anyone who actually lived this way. They have no models to show them how or prove to them it works. Yes, they read about such things in the Bible, but outside of that the Christians they know seem to function just like non-Christians when it comes to making decisions, the only difference being that a Christian will use a different system of values to guide his or her choice. Whether someone is a Christian or a non-Christian, most people tend to make decisions by using their deductive reasoning. They evaluate the possibilities, and then choose the best, or maybe the safest, course of action. The Christian hopes the choice they make will please God, but God Himself has remained a passive observer in the process. There was no divine voice or spiritual revelation involved, just well-intended human reasoning. And that type of decision-making is not wrong; it's just not enough. It's always our desire to please Him that pleases Him. And frankly, there are a lot of day-to-day decisions which need to be made this way. We have been given a rational mind and are meant to use it. But as believers we've also been given the Spirit of God to dwell in us, and His presence is not just a biblical truth to affirm. He is a Person who has joined Himself to us. We don't have a distant God we pray to. We have a living God who is near us every moment, and who wants to guide us through life.  In a previous message we introduced the subject of “spiritual conversations.” We observed Jesus' words to Paul about “kicking against the goads” (Ac 26:14), and said that such a statement revealed that God had begun a “conversation” with Paul long before Paul realized it. His spirit knew things his mind didn't understand, and we noted that this type of spiritual deafness was not unique to Paul. We too can get stuck in the reasonings of our rational mind and not hear what the Spirit is saying to us. Our lesson today is meant to help us step out into our own “spiritual conversations” with God. In other words, to help someone who wants to hear God's voice and see what the Spirit is doing, get started.  Spiritual conversations (revisited) God has given us a mind and He wants us to use it, but He warns us not to “lean” on it (Pr 3:5). We're also supposed to listen to Him with our spiritual “ears” and observe what He's doing with our spiritual “eyes” (Mt 13:13). It's normal and right to seek God's will by testing a decision, using biblical criteria to determine which choice would be acceptable to Him. And this kind of biblical examination of our decisions is always appropriate. If a choice violates a biblical principle, it's not from God. But this mental process of elimination is not the only way God wants to guide us. We must also spiritually listen for His voice, and that can be challenging because it requires faith. It means I have to acknowledge someone I can't see with my eyes and obey a voice I didn't hear with my ears. I have to allow a part of me to awaken which other people may mock.

Each of us comes out of the womb trying to make sense of the world around us. The sights, sounds, and sensations—what do they mean, and what do we do with that information? To whom or where do we go to receive guidance? And when our role is to be the guide, how do we encourage another person to develop an 'ear to hear' what the LORD is saying? This weekend, we are talking about spiritual conversations with children, but truthfully, this is for everyone—Mom, Dad, Grandparent, and everyone in between. We think we all can take something from this important message for ourselves and for those we love! First time listening to our podcast? We'd like to get to know you!    Head over to: http://bit.ly/connectcardccc.   Connect with us!   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/capecodchurch Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/capecodchurch/  Website: http://capecodchurch.com Connect Card: https://bit.ly/connectcardccc  

We know a lot more about God than our minds are able or willing to understand. We've all had experiences that we know took place, but we can't explain. There have been moments in our lives when we recognized that someone was present with us, even if we didn't know His name. There have been times when an unseen hand came out of nowhere to protect us, or a voice interrupted our thoughts with information we needed to hear. Since we are spiritual beings living in a spiritual world, it shouldn't surprise us when such things take place, but it usually does, because we live in a culture that has been trying to deny that anything spiritual exists, for the past 300 years. We're repeatedly told that the universe arose out of nothing, that life is a meaningless accident, and that when we die our conscious minds cease to exist and our bodies decompose and return to the earth. And those voices are getting louder and more demanding. So people tend to hide their spiritual experiences, feeling confused or even embarrassed that they had them. They assume they must have imagined it, or what happened was merely a very unusual coincidence. Yet spiritual encounters can't be explained away that easily, because deep down inside there's a part of us that still remembers what happened. Paul shared his testimony with Agrippa in an effort to help this man listen to his own heart. The king was an expert in religious tradition, but at the same time tragically enslaved to the passions of his flesh. The man desperately needed Jesus, but his rational mind was in the way, so Paul shared his own personal story to try to help him listen to his spirit. On this occasion Paul described everything Jesus said to him during that encounter on the road to Damascus. He disclosed things that aren't recorded anywhere else, and he did so for a reason. He was trying to awaken Agrippa's spirit to remember things he had already heard. If we listen carefully he'll awaken ours as well.

In this Episode…  Years ago I met an exorcist.  He was sharing with me how evil the world has become.  He said, “Glen, if you did exorcisms like me, you'd change your approach to ministry”.  But I am not an exorcist, nor are most people? Now what?   Here's comes “The Rescue Project”, a ministry started by Acts XXIX, a movement that helps organizations have “Spiritual Conversations for Discerning God's Plan”.   Mission Blueprint spent the last month going through the four step process of discernment.  This podcast discusses Mission BLueprint's findings…and it's very very interesting.    Find Glen here: https://www.mission-blueprint.org https://www.glengauer.com  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/missionblueprint Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/missionblueprint/ Donate today -  https://mission-blueprint.kindful.com
