Episode #103 - The beginning of becoming love is unbecoming ourselves. That’s the only way we can open ourselves up to God’s love.
Episode #102 - What kind of tree do you want to be? Do you want to be by a stream or by parched lands?
Episode #101 - Since God is love, if we want to become love, we have to spend more time with God if we stand a chance of becoming like Him.
Episode #100 - If God is going to be in our presence and be our God as is His eternal plan, He has to deal with the impurities in His people.
Episode #99 - Just like Jesus planted Himself in that tomb so we could have the life of the Spirit, we follow Him into a death like His so we can receive a life like His.
Episode #98 - Just like the Israelites worshipped the idol while they were waiting on God, my heart is also prone to wander in seasons of waiting.
Episode #97 - If we want to see God, we’re going to have to deal with the light pollution keeping God’s light from getting to our souls.
Episode #96 - “Whatever you did for one of the least of these you did for me” has become so popular and overused that we probably tend to gloss over at the reading of this story.
Episode #94 - As followers of Jesus, we are commanded to turn the other cheek, walk the extra mile, and so forth. Why? Is it just because that’s what love does? Or could there be more?
Episode #95 - Because God is all-powerful, eternal, all-knowing, all-wise, loving, kind and so on. There is no limit to His goodness.
Episode #93 - So today, what I am going to attempt to do is give a brief (ha!) overview of some of the attributes of God.
Love does not force another to love in return or in exchange for goods or services rendered. God created us with the ability to choose or reject Him.
Episode #86 - If we’re going to be able to see the bigger picture of God’s reality that the world is built on, we absolutely must become regular consumers of God’s Word
Episode #85 - We have to be established in the truth in order to withstand the crashing waves of relativism.
Episode #83 - To be aligned with culture is to be aligned with the manmade idols that are worshiped today of pride, preference, and position.
Episode #82 - When we seek to live by being true or aligned with His ways, we thrive.
Episode #81 - This is where we finish our tour of Bible characters who struggled. And it’s because I can see it as a theme of every story we have told. “My power is made perfect in weakness.”
Episode #80 - John is beheaded in prison and his disciples take his headless body and bury it in a tomb. That’s a rough ending to anyone’s story.
Episode #79 - We have someone who went between us and God, someone who brings humans and God back together, someone who took the full brunt.
Episode #78 - There’s more to Elijah’s story, but we’ll stop there for today and ask, what can we learn from Elijah’s story about suffering and struggle?
Episode #77 - What if, even though we may be in ridiculously unpleasant circumstances, we worked hard and didn’t let our circumstances control us?
Episode #76 - Our citizenship is in heaven. That means that for now, we are exiles. We are outsiders. We aren’t living in our permanent home.
Episode #75 - If God is going to deal with the rebellion, He has to draw us out of hiding. And God keeps asking questions.
Episode #74 - The same is true for us. How different would our lives be if, when someone or something raises a question, we went right to the source?
