Joy in the Midst of the Storm Podcast

In life we become complacent, comfortable, and we expect things that we normally have. As a result, sometimes we take things for granted because we’re so accustomed to them.

No one is perfect! This statement is made so often. After we make a mistake, we like to point out that we aren’t without flaws which is correct but God does expect us to be perfect!

In this week’s lesson we take a deep dive into the Bible to see just what the Lord has to say abou...

Those who want to be Christians have accepted that Christ is the only way to God! We have accepted him as our savior, but how do we pick him up? How do we put on Christ?

In this week’s Bible study, we take a deep dive into the Bible to see how we do the same!   Focus:...

Have you ever noticed how many issues everyone else has? The list is so long! They’re loud, obnoxious, inconsiderate, and so much more!

It is impossible to know everything for us humans. But the funny thing is, we strive to know more and more every day. Depending on what subject we take an interest in, we have a burning desire to increase our understanding of it. We’ve learned about technology, electricity, space, and so much more. But when asked about Christ, we cannot tell you much. Why is that? Is it true that what we know won’...

In this Christmas special, we discuss the second birth of Jesus Christ. We are typically familiar with the natural birth of our Lord as He was born in a manger because there was no room in the inn. We know how Mary was found with child having never been intimate with Joseph and how the angel assured them that it was the work of God. But do we know about Christ being the firstborn of every creature...

As people, we fall in love with how things look. We want a nice looking car, house, spouse, yard, hair style, the list goes on and on. While there is nothing wrong with things looking pleasant, we tend to be too appearance-based. With God, many times, things are not how they appear. God allows things to appear one way to test our faith, but in reality, God has the situation already worked out. Whe...

So in this lesson, we see that God does take notice and he is keeping note of what...

We, as a people, tend to get discouraged and even upset with God when bad things happen to us. It’s true; when you’re truly following God, there are going to be all sorts of things that try to knock you off your path. Jesus Himself promised this. In this week’s Bible study, we take a look at Joseph. Many evil things happened to him. His brothers wanted to kill him but ultimately ended up selling h...

Are you really following God? Do you know what He wants you to be doing? It’s impossible for us to know what God desires if we don’t go back to the scripture.

As a child of God have you ever felt like you were an outcast? Have you ever felt as if you were all alone? That feeling is a lie straight from the devil!

In this week’s lesson, we take another look at how God feels about His children!! Be blessed!   Focus: Deuteronomy 7:6...

From the beginning God’s command to Pharaoh was to let His people go so that they could serve Him!  After being freed, the Israelites began to notice how different life was in Egypt versus being out in the wilderness with God.
