Message from the sermon series, More Than Enough, from Colossians 1:9-23.

Vicky Michelle is a true entrepreneur. She's a hustler, a healer, a risk taker, an artist, an adventure seeker, and she's currently a private chef for a fraternity house at Georgia Tech University. Vicky joined the show to discuss her entrepreneurial spirit, the businesses that she's grown, how old she was when she realized she loved cooking for people, and how she's raised her visibility and refused to dim her light. We talk about the power of healing that food can be for people, what helped motivate her after she felt stuck, healing from trauma, and the next goals she's striving for. Later in the episode, Vicky reveals how she taps into her creative process, she tells me about a time she hit rock bottom, who her mentors are, a movie that changed her life, and finally, as always, we wrap up with her realest talk. There aren't many people out there like Vick, and she embodies to me everything that is important about entrepreneurship, going for it, not knowing what you don't know and yet pushing on in spite of it all, and ultimately, carving out a path that's uniquely her own. This was a fun one, and I hope you enjoy it. You can follow her on Instagram @vickyshouseofsecrets, her linktree posted in the show notes, and if you enjoy this episode, please drop a rating and a review wherever you listen to podcasts, and share it with two other people.

With over 20 years of experience in the industry, Laura shares her passion for helping customers optimize their businesses and create positive outcomes.

Nick and Laura also discuss how to pioneer sales strategies and coach sales teams to be solution-focused connectors. Quotes"As sellers, we need to have a varied interest, right?

And if all you do is work, how are you going to find common ground around activities, interests, restaurants, and other things that you do?." -Laura Chute [18:06]"I always tell people within our company that work is always going to be there.

"All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be competent, equipped for EVERY GOOD WORK" - 2 Timothy 3:16-17This week I am joined by the lovely Lisa Brenninkmeyer to discuss the importance of Sacred Scripture for the heart of a woman. Lisa, a Catholic convert, has a passion for her faith, sacred scripture, and encouraging women to draw nearer to the heart of Christ. Founder of Walking with Purpose, a Catholic Bible Study for Women, Lisa has spent many years helping women encounter Christ through God's Living Word (including myself).  This episode is an invitation to be more intentional with meeting God in his Word, in the Story of Salvation, which is still ongoing and alive IN YOU! And remember friends, as C.S. Lewis so perfectly says: "We come to Scripture not to learn a subject, but to steep ourselves in a PERSON."Walking With Purpose Bible Studies: https://walkingwithpurpose.com/WWP Shop:https://shop.walkingwithpurpose.com/collections/study-guidesIf this episode blessed you, I would be so honored if you shared it with a friend, rated it, or left us a review!

Walking (if we are able) is good for many things in life, physically and mentally. In this installment we welcome (back) Doug and his friend Eli. Their winding tale involves friendship, challenge, discomfort, planning, expectation, resilience, and realism. How what sometimes begins with a simple idea, helps us navigate so many other aspects of life that we cannot always perceive when starting something new. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/peter-driscoll/message

Lisa Brenninkmeyer is the founder of Walking With Purpose, author, public speaker and video host. As we sat down to interview her, we couldn't help but wonder: what are the elements that create a truly compelling speech? How does she weave together words that genuinely captivate her audience? Today, Lisa reveals her secrets to keeping her audience engaged and coming back for more.

Happy Sunday! We are excited that you decided to join us today. We'll be hearing from our Lead Pastor Matthew Mallek! We believe you will be impacted by the ministry of God's Word and we trust this message will inspire you, encourage you, and that you are able to connect with God in a meaningful way!

And the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.” And he rolled up the scroll and gave it back to the attendant and sat down. And the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him. And he began to say to them, “Today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing.” (Luke 4:17-21) Jesus' ministry was to proclaim the good news and set people free, yet hatred and persecution followed Him throughout it all. He spoke the truth and did the works and miracles the Father told Him to and for some people it resulted in believing and being set free, and for others it resulted in a desire to murder Him. In our life of following Jesus here, we can’t expect any different. If the world hated Jesus, it certainly is going to hate us, just as He told us in John 15. Throughout Jesus' ministry, He had to dodge people seeking to kill Him, and ultimately gave Himself into their hands when His time had come. BUT through all that hatred and persecution, Jesus was fulfilling Scripture and the mission the Father sent Him on. Could you imagine if Jesus had decided what to do based on the people seeking to kill Him instead of the Father's will? The ramification of that would have literally been death to the whole world. Thankfully for us, He walked through His life on earth with a discipline to spend time with the Father and do and say whatever the Father told Him to. Fulfilling our Purpose Now we don't have the weight of the world's salvation on our shoulders the way Jesus did (Thank you, Lord, for that!), but we do have a purpose in this life and God calls us to serve in specific ways, and our actions to obey or disobey will have its own consequences. Let me ask you this: Are you willing to be ridiculed, hated, and persecuted for Jesus? If it ever came to it, are you resolved to die for His Name sake? These are heavy things to think about, and for those living in free areas such as America it isn’t something that’s front and center in life the way it is to our fellow brothers and sisters in places with intense persecution of the saints. Regardless of how prevalent it is, we must resolve to stay faithful to our Faithful God and Savior no matter the cost. What’s the Purpose? Why even bother to think upon these things? If you were going to be in a boxing match one day, let's say a year from now. Would you wait until you're entering the ring to start weight training and sparring? That seems crazy, right? Of course you wouldn't wait, you would train from the moment you knew you'd be in that match! Well, Paul did warn us that “Indeed, all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted” (2 Timothy 3:12). So if you've never read this and maybe never faced any kind of persecution yet, here's the news that your boxing match is coming and it's time to prepare! This doesn't mean that when persecution comes you'll be immune to it or you'll somehow not be physically, emotionally, or spiritually affected. You don't even need to memorize speeches of what you'll say when the time comes, the Holy Spirit has you covered there just like Jesus said in Mathew, “When they deliver you over, do not be anxious how you are to speak or what you are to say, for what you are to say will be given to you in that hour. For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.” (Matthew 10:19-20) However, it does mean that you'll be prepared to suffer, and even die, for Christ's sake if it comes to that, because you'll have been training and renewing your mind. Paul's letter to the church in Philippi has such encouraging and mind preparing words to this topic, but I'll leave you with these couple verses: As it is my eager expectation and hope that I will not be at all ashamed, but that with full courage now as always Christ will be honored in my body, whether by life or by death. For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. (Philippians 1:20-21)

In this episode, the gang emphatically debates the outcome of a particularly epic battle of heroes. Immediately following, Jerry shares a story of how he found his patience tested and how prayer kept his mind focused on what was important. Also, star signs are crazy and ridiculous.

The Living Full Out Show with Nancy Solari encourages you to walk through life with purpose. Perhaps you have tried out a variety of different careers after graduating high school. Maybe you have an overwhelming passion for your creative hobbies, but are unsure about how to apply this to your personal journey. We can use the broad experience we gain throughout life—both our highest highs and lowest lows—to carve our own unique path. Our first caller, Debbie, wants to know how to move on after ending a toxic relationship. Nancy encourages her to visualize her past partner in a negative light so that she will no longer idealize them in her mind. Next, Nancy advises Debbie to look toward her future and start determining what she wants to look for in a new love. Tune in to hear how you can realign yourself after dating a deceitful partner. Our inspirational guest, Shelly Rainey, discusses her struggles with enduring multiple miscarriages. When she lost her first pregnancy at the age of 27, Shelly was urged to get a hysterectomy due to uterine fibroids but she resolutely refused. Following a second miscarraige, Shelly was finally able to give birth to the light of her life, Hannah. After more loss, Shelly would reflect on her feelings of grief to understand her way forward. Listen to learn about how Shelly used both her difficult and joyful experiences to determine her purpose in life. Our final caller, Lizbeth, wants advice on how to actually follow through with her goals instead of dropping them. Nancy tells Lizbeth to take her larger goals and begin implementing them in smaller pieces, find an accountability partner, and visualize where she will be when she accomplishes her aims. Tune in to hear how you can fulfill the promises you make to yourself. Perhaps you have just been rejected from your dream college. Maybe you have felt lost in forming deeper connections in your personal relationships. Whatever setbacks we may encounter, we can use these important and, sometimes painful, moments to help guide our journey ahead. When we decide to walk with purpose and dedicate time to developing our life's roll, we have already taken the first crucial steps in living full out. Call us 800-333-0001

In this episode, we conclude our four part Advent series revisiting the women Doctors of the Church with a discussion on peace through the life of St. Teresa of Avila. We discuss the key to peace as abiding in the love of Christ despite the storms of life. We chat about peace that comes from rightly ordered relationships and the need to cultivate peace through daily acts of trust, rest, and surrender. We pray that as we near Christmas, you would experience the peace of Christ in a new way! For further listening, check out Restore the Beauty, a five part series on the women Doctors of the Church from Season 4 and be sure to subscribe to the Abiding Together Podcast on YouTube to watch our video podcasts!    Sister Miriam's one thing - Oh Come Let us Adore Him - Maverick City Music Michelle's one thing - All of our Abiding Together Podcast Staff - Lizzie, Emily, Katie, Kristina - and the staff at Spirit Juice Studios  Heather's one thing - All of our Patrons   Other Books Mentioned - The Story of a Soul: The Autobiography of St. Therese of Lisieux    Discussion questions:     What stood out to you from today's episode?  How do you find, cultivate, and maintain peace in your life? What role has ‘abiding'  played in creating a life of peace?  What does it look like to embody Shalom - peace that radiates wholeness, completeness, and order?  How do you make time throughout the day to breathe and intentionally open your heart up to Jesus and his peace?  Journal Questions: Take a moment to pray “Jesus, teach me to find peace in the storms of life.”  How will you ‘abide' with Jesus over the next few days as we enter into Christmas? Imagine yourself in the boat with Jesus and the disciples in the storm. What is your posture and expression and why? How does this reveal Christ as the king of peace or not?  Take a moment to pray, reflect and prepare for Christ's birth through a brief examination of conscience. In the areas we have discussed this Advent - faith, hope, joy and peace - where have you gone astray? Where do you need God's mercy? If you haven't yet, commit to making space for the sacrament of confession before Christmas.    Quote to Ponder:  "Let nothing disturb you, let nothing frighten you, all things are passing away. God never changes. Patience obtains all things. Whoever has God lacks nothing, God alone suffices."- St. Teresa of Avila Scripture for Lectio Divina: In the beginning, was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through Him, and without Him, not one thing came into being. What has come into being in Him was life, and the life was the light of all people. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it. - John 1:1-5   This episode is sponsored by Walking With Purpose.

The wonderful ladies from our local Walking With Purpose submitted a bunch of questions to Fr. Sam for a Q&A session. They're asking all kinds of things from the problem of evil to Scriptural credibility and more. Here's part 1 of our discussion of their questions.

Mallory Smyth discusses how understanding our gifts and paying attention to how the Holy Spirit calls us to use them is the first step in sharing the faith. She also shares how her reversion to Catholicism and her work in various ministries has shown her that we are all called to uniquely give witness to Jesus.

Erin Cardinal and Ruth Kelly are today's guests. They are Basilica of Saint Mary parishioners and members of an apostolate called Walking with Purpose (WWP), a Catholic Bible study program that aims to bring women to a deeper personal relationship with Jesus.

Pastor Houston Jared delivers a sermon on what it means to walk in purpose. 

In this episode, we begin a mini-series on four women in scripture with the story of Hannah. We discuss the importance of acknowledging our desires and the ache of longing much like Hannah’s desire for a child. We chat about the temptation to compare our areas of barrenness to other people’s fruitfulness and the freedom of surrender and keeping our eyes on Christ. We acknowledge the importance of remembering that union with God is the promise, not the things we desire, and how God’s delayed response is sometimes a great mercy. Sister Miriam closes this episode with a prayer inviting the Lord to meet you in the places of fear, despair and longing.  Sister Miriam’s one thing -  Bible in a Year Podcast with Fr. Mike Schmitz featuring Jeff Cavins  from Ascension Press Heather’s one thing - The 2021 Passion Conference Heather’s other one thing - Promises - Maverick City Music Michelle’s one thing - The Given Forum  Discussion questions:     What struck you from this week’s episode? When have you experienced the Lord allowing you to journey through a season of physical, spiritual or emotional barrenness? Where have you allowed yourself to focus on other people’s fruitfulness and allowed yourself to believe that God has forgotten about you? Desperation and surrender can draw us closer to God that we may bear fruit. How have you experienced this in your life? Do you trust God to write a good story in your life even when things are not how you expected? Are there areas where you still need to surrender control? Journal Questions: Where have you felt that God has not answered, fulfilled, listened to or given you a desire that you longed for? What has your reaction been in these situations? What lies are you believing because of this?  What are the areas of barrenness in your life? How is the Holy Spirit asking you to acknowledge your longing and bring it to him?   What is the posture of prayer you want to place yourself in before the Lord through this season? Quotes to Ponder: “To limit your desires and your hopes is to misunderstand God’s infinite goodness.” - St. Therese  Scripture for Lectio Divina -   “Daughter, the God of Israel has granted your petition as you have asked of Him.” - 1 Samuel 1:17   “My heart exults in the Lord, my horn is exalted in my God. I have swallowed up my enemies; I rejoice in my victory. There is no Holy One like the Lord; there is no Rock like our God.” - 1 Samuel 2:1-2 This episode is sponsored by Walking With Purpose. Do you long for healing and wholeness? Would you like to be rooted and grounded in a love that will never fail you? Fearless and Free, a Catholic Bible study from Walking with Purpose, will allow you to experience healing and wholeness in Christ. In this transformational study, you'll journey through the book of Ephesians to gain a firm Biblical foundation to stand on no matter what life throws your way. The six-lesson format of Fearless and Free makes it an ideal Bible study for Lent, and a free leader's guide can be downloaded from the Walking with Purpose website. Use code abide15 for 15% off Fearless and Free, now through Ash Wednesday, February 17. We also announce our 2021 Lenten Book Study - This Present Paradise - Claire Dwyer. 

Follow the Leader - Jesus, The Good Shepherd In this episode, we begin a 3 part series on the Person of Jesus as revealed in Scripture. We break open Psalm 23 and discuss how we are personally invited to experience the comfort, provision, protection, restoration, correction, and leadership of the Good Shepherd. We also talk about the failure of some of our shepherds on earth and how God wants to restore us. Jesus the Good Shepherd wants us to experience Him personally.  Michelle’s one thing - Her new nephew, Quinn David, and all mothers of young children Heather’s one thing - Our listeners and passing the 5 million downloads threshold Heather’s other one thing - The Search - Chris Stefanick and FORMED. You can also access the panel discussions on each episode at beholdvancouver.org starting on November 5 from 7:00-8:30 Pacific Time Sister Miriam’s one thing -  The Great Adventure Catholic Bible - Ascension Press  Discussion questions:     What struck you from this week’s episode? Read Psalm 23 together. What word or phrase speaks to you on how God has been a shepherd to you in this season?  The catechism reminds us that it is Christ alone who unfailingly nourishes and leads us. Where have you looked to man-made ways and earthly leaders to shepherd you instead of Jesus, the Good Shepherd?  The rod and and staff are used to protect the flock and snatch back the sheep who are prone to wander. How have you seen God’s rod and staff at work in your life? Where do you need God to shepherd you by wielding his rod and staff? Journal Questions: What does it mean, for you personally, that Jesus is the Good Shepherd? Reflect on a time that God has shown his providence, protection and leadership in your life. Who are the shepherds - priests, pastors and leaders - who have imaged for you the face of Christ as the Good Shepherd? Take a moment to express gratitude for the gift of their lives and vocations. Who are the shepherds - priests, pastors and leaders -  who have disfigured the face of Christ as the Good Shepherd due to their failures and sins. Take a moment to invite God into your hurt and ask that He would restore those places.  Spend some time reading and praying through the shepherd imagery in John 10, Psalm 23, or Luke 15:3-6. Allow the Holy Spirit to reveal who Jesus says He is.  Quote to Ponder - “I am like the sick sheep that strays from the rest of the flock. Unless the Good Shepherd takes me on His shoulders and carries me back to His fold, my steps will falter, and in the very effort of rising, my feet will give way.” - St. Jerome Scripture for Lectio Divina - Psalm 23: 1-6 The LORD is my shepherd there is nothing I lack. In green pastures he makes me lie down; to still waters he leads me; he restores my soul. He guides me along the right paths for the sake of his name. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff comfort me. You set a table before me in front of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Indeed, goodness and mercy will pursue me all the days of my life; I will dwell in the house of the LORD for endless days.

Pastor Paul.

It's National Walking Day today! I LOVE walking. I believe it's the simplest, most versatile and impactful form of exercise. I never took walking seriously until I started losing weight and figured out that, coupled with a more balanced eating regime, it helps achieve a lot of goals. It positively impacts my mental health, my physical health and is the simplest form of accomplishment. Over the years, I have looked at walking with a sense of purpose and intent. How do I look at my life and my schedule and make choices that can involve walking on a more consistent basis? I share my thoughts on today's episode! Happy #NationalWalkingDay!

For us Americans, tomorrow is Thanksgiving. That means turkey, parades, football, (whitewashed stories about pilgrims and Native Americans that aren't 100% accurate and should probably be looked at much deeper than they are but that's a post for another time), and family. For some of us, being with our families is a true joy that we look forward to all year. But for some of us, being with family is very difficult and can bring out some tough emotions. That's why there's no better time for a chat about emotionally healthy spirituality. Today on the show, we're chatting with Lisa Brenninkmeyer, the founder of Walking With Purpose. Lisa and I talk about what emotionally healthy spirituality looks like, how to take care of yourself during emotionally volatile times, how to build up a community around you that you can be 100% yourself with, and how to seek healing from emotional wounds. So if you're currently driving to your in-laws or cousins or grandparents for Thanksgiving, I hope we can keep you company for the car ride!  Also, there's no better time to express my immense gratitude for you, dear listener, for allowing me to have my dream job.

In this episode, Beth and Jenna chat with wife, mother, and writer Lisa Brenninkmeyer. Lisa founded the beautiful ministry Walking With Purpose. We talk about praying with Scripture, speaking truth to yourself, emotional healing, and freedom.

Ephesians 4:17-32 (ESV) 17 Now this I say and testify in the Lord, that you must no longer walk as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their minds. 18 They are darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, due to their hardness of heart. 19 They have become callous and have given themselves up to sensuality, greedy to practice every kind of impurity. 20 But that is not the way you learned Christ!— 21 assuming that you have heard about him and were taught in him, as the truth is in Jesus, 22 to put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, 23 and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, 24 and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness. 25 Therefore, having put away falsehood, let each one of you speak the truth with his neighbour, for we are members one of another. 26 Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, 27 and give no opportunity to the devil. 28 Let the thief no longer steal, but rather let him labour, doing honest work with his own hands, so that he may have something to share with anyone in need. 29 Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear. 30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. 31 Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamour and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. 32 Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.

Why do some ministries die and some thrive? Lisa Brenninkmeyer, author and founder of Walking With Purpose shares with us how she built a grassroots women's ministry and not just another program. Leadership training and mentoring form the backbone of Walking With Purpose and are precisely what makes it so powerful. The show starts off with me, your old pal Gomer, thank you, our beautiful listeners, for being amazing. LayEvangelist.com is a continued experiment in bringing about the new evangelization and as we expand our number of shows to, you know, more than one, we hope that it can change your life, your faith and your city. Then Lisa, out of no where, just starts affirming Luke, which made me very uncomfortable, because, it's Luke.We dive into the Call, Revival, and even our recent interview with good, old Father Dave Pivonka of www.thewildgooseisloose.com. Lisa brings up a very good point about the Church and women. Often teachers and preachers tend to focus on chastity when the girls are young, and maternity when the girls become women. They are basically locked in a sexual viewpoint. Lisa's presentations are powerful because she goes beyond sexual value or maternity and focuses on the foundation: my identity as a woman in Christ. Thus her ministry is wide open to women of all vocations and backgrounds.Oh yeah, she's that good. This is one of my favorite interviews yet.#BlessedFrom the website...What is Walking with Purpose?Walking with Purpose is a women’s Catholic Bible study program.Walking with Purpose endeavors to meet women where they are, giving them practical Biblical teaching that is consistent with Church doctrine and uses the Catechism of the Catholic Church as an additional resource. All materials have received the imprimatur from the Archdiocese of Baltimore.Walking with Purpose aims to bring women to a deeper personal relationship with Jesus Christ by offering personal study and small group discussion that link our everyday challenges and struggles with the solutions given to us through the teachings of Christ and the Catholic Church.Walking with Purpose has three elements: at-home study, weekly small group meetings (if in the parish-based or small group programs), and a monthly talk on relevant course material. Most courses contain 22 lessons; one short course contains six lessons.Walking with Purpose has over 130 parishes involved in our Leadership Training Program in the United States, Europe and Canada and has helped thousands of women grow closer to Christ.

Luke and I start out with the Qatar death scandal involving the World Cup, but don't worry, plenty of people die, Qatar and FIFA authorities assure us. Just not on the same project. At the same time. At all. Then I mock the worship of Sports (#1 of America's Top 7 Gods) and Luke pivots the conversation to a quote from Archbishop Chaput: “This difference between production and consumption is what sociologist Zygmunt Bauman calls the gulf between solid and liquid modern life. Older, “solid” societies based on production find their security in ownership, delayed gratification and rational organization. They seek methodical progress, and they put a high value on durable goods. “Liquid,” consumer-based societies—creatures of the tech revolution and its rapid rate of change—feed on “incessant new beginnings” and experiences.” — Archbishop Chaput I express how I get nervous with quotes like these because, to be honest, a fear of technology is essentially a fear of our native strength. Robots, AI, and all these iPhones are extensions of our selves, they are our creations. Anywho, Zygmunt Bauman's thesis sounds interesting, so here's a link to his book Liquid Modernity that benefits our ministry. And we shouldn't fear them.Now on to Mars, ELON MUSK, GET MY FAT ASS TO MARS!Then we talk about our upcoming two guests: Sergio Bermundez and Lisa Brenninkmeyer from Walking With Purpose.Then Gomer pulls out the GREATEST ANSWER OF ALL TIME WHY LUKE HAS BAD TASTE IN MUSIC/BEER. Thanks 'Stina!Finally, we end with the New Evangelization and why we aren't really implementing it and how Gomer has no patience for this. 

From the Walking With Purpose luncheon, October 2013. John 13:34: A new commandmentI give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.  By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
