Lee and Amy discuss spiritual hunger and residing in God’s presence.

“For it is not mere words that nourish the soul, but God Himself; and unless and until the hearers find God in personal experience, they are not the better for having heard the truth. The Bible is not an end in itself, but a means to bring men to an intimate and satisfying knowledge of God, that they may enter into Him, that they may delight in His presence, may t...

We all have talents and abilities, but it’s important to guard against thinking our own might and power are all we need when trouble comes. In this week’s podcast, we examine the words of Zechariah, the prophet.

 

“So he answered and said to me: “This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ Says the L...

Many organizations, including churches, tend to develop a culture comprised of unspoken practices, rules, and paradigms that are not to be questioned. But God gave us a mind, equipped with the ability to know his word for ourselves and to think through situations. We shouldn’t turn a blind eye to that which contradicts God’s ways.

Lee and Amy discuss what C.S. Lewis had to say about being engulfed in the news of the day, particularly as stated in the quote below:

I think each village was meant to feel pity for its own sick and poor whom it can help and I doubt if it is the duty of any private person to fix his mind on ills which he cannot help. (Thi...

We tend to read scripture through a Western lens, based on doctrine as it has been presented to us, through our own logical mindset, or some combination of both. On this episode, we explore scriptures that are often overlooked but have a lot to say about God, family, and our interaction with the spirit realm.

When you were a child, did you dream of growing up to be a doctor, a writer, a firefighter, or perhaps a rock star? What did you dream of doing or becoming? And what do our childhood desires say about who we are today?

If you stick around church life long enough, you will be disappointed. In extreme cases, spiritual and other kinds of abuse may take place - because humans are fallible. But this need not lead us to withdraw from God's presence but rather to draw even closer.

 

“We will not boast about things done outside our area of authority. We will boast only about what has happened within the boundaries of the work God has given us, which incl...
