Getting Started With Jesus

Episode Notes Hello There! I had a wonderful Thanksgiving and the Women’s Conference in Charlotte, NC on December 3, 2022 was fantastic! More to come about that next week! But today, here are the lyrics to an old gospel song about Faith that I grew up singing in church. Faith can move mountains, Oh faith can open the fountain, Yes faith will help you succeed, Yes faith will supply your every need....

Episode Notes When you take time to really think about it, Thanksgiving is every day! In ever situation, good and bad, we must thank God. (See 1 Thessalonians 5:18). We have so much to thank God for, as well as for the people in our lives. This show will encourage you to begin your celebration of Thanksgiving today, right now….before the turkey and dressing is spread on your dining room table! Yes...

Episode Notes Fear is a torment. If you let it control you, then you will be suffocated, smothered, trapped, and unsure about everything. When you read 1 John 4:18, the contrast between fear and love is evident. We are living at a time in society where the spirit of fear is taking our breath away……literally. I do mean literally! Can’t you see it? Just look around and observe your environment. From...

Episode Notes My mother had a phrase that she would say during my adolescent years. ”Regina, take what you have and make what you can out of it.” It was her way of saying, “Stop Complaining,” and keep pressing towards your goals and dreams. That phrase still resonates in my heart today. She was telling me to “Grow Up.” Many people hate to grow up. Think about it! It is easier to complain, blame ot...

Episode Notes Moses asked God a good question, “What shall I say to the Children of Israel when they ask, What is Your Name?” And God told him, “I AM THAT I AM. Tell them that I AM has sent me unto you.” That scripture is found in Exodus 3:13-14. I AM. That is a statement of power, dominion, authority, certainty, and something I call “Single-Minded“ significance! I AM THAT I AM. Then, when you fas...

Episode Notes We are all guilty of taking advantage of the precious time that God gives for us to enjoy and experience his goodness, grace, love, and mercy. He wants to have a closer relationship with you. That is why I started this Podcast! So many “other things and people,” are demanding, clinging, and consuming your time (and my time). In many cases, your best interest is the ”Last Thing” being...

Episode Notes If you had to think about running away from things that can kill your spiritual growth and maturity, would you do it? I mean, really would you run away? Would you move yourself quickly to escape? Better yet, would you even know the things that God tells us to run away from? And, why he tell us to run, instead of facing up to those challenges? I am so glad that God knows how much we c...

Episode Notes God is Faithful. We can rely on him for every need, desire, and hope. His mercy is everlasting and his grace is sufficient.

Episode Notes Be Peaceful…is a statement that I heard many years ago when my life was turning upside down!

And, the Wisdom of God is peaceable, pure, and full of mercy. This show...

Episode Notes What the world needs now is love. It is the greatest force on earth. The Word of God tells us to “love your neighbor as you love yourself.” So, where is the love? It seems like many people do not really love themselves, therefore the ability to love others is difficult. We constantly see hatred throughout the current events of today’s society. However, if we practice the “The Love Th...
