“Imagine the strength it takes for the all-powerful, sinless Son of God to endure rejection, torture, and death, knowing He could have stopped it all with a single word. Yet He didn’t.”
Sauls
We're often harder on ourselves than we would ever be on someone we love. The voice that tells you you're not doing enough, not improving fast enough, not measuring up - that's not the voice of God. Grace doesn't demand perfection. It gives love and rest.
“If you want to experience the life of Jesus, you have to adopt the lifestyle of Jesus. The reality is, I want that life, but I’m not willing to adopt the lifestyle behind it.”
John Mark Comer
“To walk with Jesus is to walk with a slow, unhurried pace. Hurry is the death of prayer and only impedes and spoils our work. It never advances it”
Walter Adams
“Where productivity is about human control, fruitfulness is about dependency. And it’s fruitfulness, not productivity, that is the primary criterion of love and spiritual growth in the New Testament”
Strahan Coleman
Pay attention to what God IS doing and not focusing on what He’s not doing. It’s not about our idea of what it should be, but freely accepting His will and plan and walking in it.
Jesus wasn’t in a hurry. He paused to heal, to weep, to ask questions, to eat meals with people others avoided. If He wasn’t rushed, maybe we don’t need to be either...?
The same God who made all of the heavens, the stars, sunsets, all the beauty we see each day says you and I are His greatest creation. Don’t forget that God defines you and your value, nothing an no one else can.
There is a difference in head repentance and heart repentance. One will allow you, or leave you in control while the other will not. One is a lie and one is freedom. That’s what this podcast will discuss. https://t.co/BgOIvCnUyT
Now that Jonah is in the stomach of the fish, we will look at Jonah’s prayer in chapter 2. But does Jonah really repent? That’s what this podcast will discuss. https://t.co/BgOIvCnmJl
After looking at the reason for the story of Jonah to happen, now it’s time to look at the reality. Did the story of Jonah really happen? Was it a made up story, or can we use Scripture to show it’s a real life story? That’s what we will discuss. https://t.co/BgOIvCnmJl
Was God punishing Jonah or was Jonah having to deal with the consequences of his choices? Does God punish us today or are we only dealing with the consequences of our choices? That’s what this podcast will discuss. https://t.co/BgOIvCnmJl
Often times we mistake having to deal with the consequences of our actions/decisions as punishment. This podcast will look at the difference between consequences for our actions against punishment. https://t.co/BgOIvCnmJl
