What do you think living sacrifice means?  Today we get to discuss what we have found and scripture to back up this command.  Paul speaks about being a living sacrifice in Romans 12.  He also goes into detail in Galatians.  If you are a follower of Christ, you are supposed to be set apart from the world.  This means, we choose to die to self every single day in order to follow Christ.  Part of a l...

Where is God when you feel alone and in a valley so deep that it feels like you will be consumed.  God is with you always.  There is light in the darkness.  Today, Heather and Britt dive into the importance of having a grateful heart.  God wants that for us.  God finds you in your hard moments.  Why can't we find contentment in moments that are truly hard?  God will change your heart the more...

This week Heather and Britt get right down to business in talking about our responsibilities as Christian's to steward our children, raising them up in the ways of the Lord and being the voice of the vulnerable and for those who cannot yet speak up for themselves. Be vigilant and extra- aware of what your children are seeing, hearing and doing. In the same token, be aware of what you are seei...

We see the transformation of Saul on his road to Damascus and how he was once blind but with the assistance of the Angel of the Lord he could now see. Both figuratively and literally. Saul is baptized in Damascus and begins to proclaim Jesus as Messiah. Along the way, we get introduced to the first Non-Jewish Christian, a Centurion named Cornellius. The study then goes into the new idea of abandon...

Today Heather and Britt dive right into Acts 7-8! We see our first Christian Martyr in Stephen and Saul is the persecutor. We talk about some of the similarities in life during this time when the Holy Spirit is being left out of our daily lives. Come fellowship and grow with us!

This week we continue to read into Acts chapters 3-6. We get to see how Jesus is still on the move on earth even though He now gets to reside on the right hand of God. The Holy Spirit continues to fill the hearts of believers alike in order to carry out the Will of God, introducing the world to the new Kingdom of Heaven. Come along to fellowship and grow with us as we continue our study into the B...

Happy Thanksgiving fellow Americans! Welcome to season 4 where we will be exploring the Book of Acts. This week we read through chapters 1-2. Already we will start to see different prophecies coming true through the Psalm of David and the Prophet Joel. Where one once had to be baptized through water, Jesus has now made a way to be baptized and filled by the Holy Spirit. Come fellowship and grow wi...

Here's to the season 3 finale! We get to answer questions that listeners sent in. Join us as we answer both biblical and humorous questions that dive in deeper into who we are as people, outside of this platform. Come fellowship, grow and laugh with us this week. 

This week we bring an end to the book of John. We explore chapters 20-21. John paints a picture of not only death but the amazing rise of the Son of God just three days later. Take comfort when you feel doubt or question the ways of God, even Jesus' disciples didn't immediately recognize Him. Some even doubted that Jesus had actually returned from the grave. We also see how Jesus was abl...

In this week's episode we explore John 17-19. We walk through His prayers for himself and His disciples (all who believe), and we watch all the prophetic words come to life as He is arrested, tried, and crucified.  Even as disciples tried to protect him from what was about to happen, He told them that 'He must drink from the cup His Father has given to him'. You can clearly see God&...

In this week's episode we continue our study into John 16. This passage is both sad and encouraging. Not only is Jesus preparing His disciples for His "going away" but He is also leaving them with the greatest honor of spreading the gospel and finishing out the mission of the New Kingdom of God. The Disciples were surely full of fear, anxiety and doubt of what tomorrow would hold, j...

This week Heather and Britt dive into John 13-15. What humbling depiction of Jesus lowering himself to wash His disciples feet. Keep in mind, to wash a person's feet was the lowest of the low positions, yet the Son of God cheerfully and humbly carried out this task. We also get into the topic of Christian persecution right here in America. We are equipped to handle this persecution based on J...

Britt and Heather continue to study the Book of John chapters 9-12. We see Jesus heal the blind and then discuss the similarities between being physically blind as well as spiritually blind. Jesus directs this concept at the Pharisee's and Jewish leaders as being blind to the true ways of the kingdom of God versus the world, and what the world deems as being acceptable or believable. Jesus th...

This week we welcome Heather back!! We dive right into the Book of John chapters 6-8. We discuss the miracle of feeding the 5,000, the crowds need to witness continuous miracles while ignoring the man performing them. We talk about the bread of life and how bread from heaven gives life to the world, whereas perishable bread will leave you hungry for more. Tensions continue to build however, it is...

This week Britt and Nic begin a new study in the book of John. We begin to discuss the main purpose of this particular gospel, which John tells us directly in John 20:30-31 "These are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in his name." For new believers, or seasoned believers alike, the book of John will encourage,...

In this week's episode Nic joins Britt in finishing up our study of Job. The Book of Job raises the question: Why do good people suffer? Perhaps, there is more to be seen then just our situations at hand, how could our reaction dictate the happenings in Heaven? To glorify God is to have unwavering faith, we see this trend all throughout the Bible, Britt touches upon the similarities between J...

This week Heather and Brittany dive into the book of Job. It instantly raises the question, why do we suffer, or better yet, where is God when we are suffering? We are given mercy whether we are to blame or blameless like Job. One thing is for sure, the advisory will come to stalk you like prey, but God...He is the Lion of Judah, even Satan knows to obey God's boundaries.   We also introduce...

This week Heather and Brittany dive into the Book of 2 Peter. What was God telling Peter that He now needs us to listen to? Peter does not beat around the bush so to speak. He tells us to be sober-minded and vigilant to the adversary and his conniving ways. We also discuss how we have witnessed the warnings in our every day lives and how we have learned to combat them with God's word. The kno...

Hey everyone we had the opportunity to have Nic banter with Britt this week about the ins and outs of chapters 4-5 of 1 Peter. We dive into what it really means to suffer for Christ, how to take honor in the privilege and how to be hyper-vigilant to the enemy the prowls like a lion waiting to devour. Take heart in your suffering and remember that the tribulation is only meant for a short while. Co...

This week Heather and Brittany continue to dive into the book of 1 Peter chapters 2 through 3. We discuss what it means to view Jesus as the true, living corner stone and how the gospel should be evidence by our actions as believers. Another hot topic is found in chapter 3 where Peter goes on to describe the duties ordained by God when it comes to women and men, specifically wives and husbands. Co...

This week Heather and Brittany discuss the Book of 1 Peter, what it means to have a living hope in Christ and how we may implement that in our daily lives. Keeping ourselves set apart in the world. We get a very interesting question pertaining to how you are to discern God's guidance in where you make your "home" church. Join us next week for our study in 1 Peter chapter 2.
