Episode 44: He Can, He will, But Even if he doesn't....
August 14th, 2020 | 36 mins 13 secs
endurance, faith, god, love, pain, sacrifice, suffering
Unfortunately many believers have the wrong idea about faith and belief in God. The American church has created this vending machine God where if you put enough faith and money in, you can get whatever the desires of your heart are out. Friends, it just isn't this way. In fact, the truth is so much greater! It has never been about what WE want, it's all about what GOD wants. (which btw, IS SO MUCH BETTER)

Episode 039: Trading Suffering for Joy
May 26th, 2020 | 45 mins 9 secs
discipline, distractions, endurance, joy, pain, suffering
When Jesus went to the cross, what was it that kept him strong? The answer; He had joy knowing that you and I would be free because of the cross. His compassion was his strength. His love was His salvation. His Joy was you and me. We too can trade our own "crosses" for joy if we keep our eyes on Jesus. There is literally nothing in this world we can't overcome if we see these experiences as means to complete a work in us.
