Mike Q. Daniel LIVE!

Welcome to Ep. #989 : “The Better Portion”.  How do we catch the best parts of every day with Jesus?  Grab your coffee and pull up your comfiest chair as we dive into this end of week nugget.

Happy Wednesday!  Welcome to Ep. #988 - “Not Something Else… Something New” (A brief ode to the breathtakingly powerful creative love of God). We’ve had some very comprehensive talks the last three episodes, so today, we stand in awe, taking God’s life and love in like the sunrise.

Welcome to Ep. #987 : What must we really do with the law in Christ? We will unpack the definitive answer to the role of the law in the life of the believer, and finally settle what we do with law, with Jesus, with ourselves in light of these two holy realities. You are gonna love this (but some are going to hate this).  If you are determined to in self-righteous effort don’t tune in, or maybe you...

Well one to Ep. #986 : “The Truth about Confession” grab your coffee and a comfy spot to tune in from, and let’s dive into what we mean and do to confess, why we do, and what it means for our relationship with aged and each other.  If you’ve ever wanted a definitive understanding of confession, forgiveness and security in Christ for you or others, this is going to be a huge blessing and incredibly...

Welcome to Ep. #985 : “Real Repentance Without Re-Penance”.  Understanding what Scripture means and the truth that sets us free is SO much better than relying on traditional perceptions and error that keep people in bondage to false ideas about who God is, all He has done, and who we now are because of Christ’s beautiful work through the cross.   So what is REAL repentance?  How’s it confused, and...

Welcome to Ep. #984 : “Hurting & Tired - Can Comfort Become an Idol?”   WOW, can I relate some days!  We have two questions about pursuing comfort and being physically tired, so where’s the rest by grace and where’s the trust by faith…. And maybe more importantly, where does my pursuit of better become my hope and dependence for life and sufficiency?  I love these questions, and the heart behi...

Welcome to Ep. #983 - “The UN-Grieved Grieving of God – is He pleased with you or not?” We know the Holy Spirit is grieved.  We know God has deep emotional responses.  We know how we react when we are hurt or disappointed by others, don’t we?  So how does God feel about our struggles, failures, and sin as His saved righteous-by-grace child?

Good morning,  Grace Tribe!  Welcome to Mike Q. Daniel LIVE! Ep. #982 -“Emotional Well Being on the Bad Days”. Katherine asked a beautiful question we are going to lean in to together about dealing with the hurt of hard times - what’s it mean to our faith, how do we manage the emotion that doesn’t just go away, and more! 

Welcome to Ep. #981 - Grace & Coffee Q&A - emotional clarity, Scripture conflict, imperfect pursuits, and more…”. 

Welcome to Ep. #980 — “The Impossible Life of Christ in You”.   If you’ve ever felt like life is impossible, you’re absolutely right.  God is in fact inviting you to do and be the impossible in Christ.  If it don’t seem daunting it would never require grace.  It’s not for the most competent but for Christ alone to live, and we are going to talk about the implications of all that and more - and the...

Welcome to Ep. #979 - “Fully Present in His Presence”.  God has made Himself known, both who He is and where He is.  Maybe we should too?  

Welcome to Episode # 978, "Breaking the Spell" How do we break the spell of the world divisiveness?  Well there is a secret superpower of the believer, that clears the fog, and makes Fod’s perspective much more obvious when the world spins us up into, “us and them”, anti-others precise and self-talk. 

Good morning friends, and happy Wednesday!  Welcome to  Ep. #977 – "Walking Free in a Chaotic World"  You are more free here than you know, and your fulfillment is not in siding with the side that beats the other side in any area of your life.  You get to walk in the freedom and victory of Christ in you today! 

Good morning, Gracers!  Welcome to Ep. #976 - “ The Blurry Vision of Modern Misalignment”.  The world is trigger-happy, and no, not in the traditional way that phrase is used.  Everyone is getting triggered if the breeze blows the direction they didn’t expect.  Every news article, every comment in everything, someone’s happy, or upset about, triggers someone else.  We’re walking in a field of land...

Good morning, Saints!  "Happy new week!    Welcome to Episode # 975 - "How Soft Is Grace, Really? Question: what are the characteristics that come to mine of someone walking by grace?   I’ve been a little surprised how quickly believers lately presume it always looks a very specific way instead of thinking it always affords God getting His way, and makes His way always our good.  That’s...

Episode # 974, “Faith and Fruit: The Process Is the Product” Friends - what do you want from this day?  If you’re like me, it’s easy for a very real God who’s is our very present God (which is a very big deal) to be an afterthought to a whole lot.   Join us for this episode as we look at why life doesn’t always seem that fruitful, and specifically what the shift in our day-to-day might be like wit...

Welcome to Ep. 973 – “How Do You Become More Like Christ?”   Are you becoming more Christlike?   How does This even happen and what’s your role in it?   Join Mike Q. Daniel LIVE! with the Grace Tribe as we pour a little java and talk a lot about Jesus!  

Welcome to Episode # 972,  “Who is Right About What You’re Worth?“  Maybe you feel like an outsider or that you don’t quite fit in with God’s saints.  Is God wrong about your worth?  Is He just being really nice to give His life for you?  Maybe it’s hard to believe He likes you and wants eternal life in the here and forever with you. Join Mike and the Grace and embrace like never before your real...

 Welcome to Ep. #971 - “Getting Tired of Doing the Right Thing” (you can almost hear Peter Gabriel singing in the background “don’t give up!“, but sometimes we’d like to!).  Happy Monday, my friend! Paul puts his finger on a deep issue from those who want to do good.  It can sometimes feel exhausting. This a profoundly important issue for us who are alive in Christ. 

Welcome to Ep. #970 - “Lovely, Dark, & Deep”.  Good morning saints! Do you ever feel like it’s time to be still, to fade into the fabric of daily life, to disappear in a crowd or wander in the woods?  Something deep within us is called to quiet, but it’s a rare and beautiful moment we get to be absorbed in the stillness.  Ironically these moments apart from so much are often the moments we fee...

The storms continue, but grace abounds! Welcome to Ep. #969 - “Learning Cozy in the Cold” - day 3 in a week of “Weathering in Grace” devotional talks as the country perseveres a national storm.  My friends cozy in Christ is as much about learning and orienting in truth as making progress through the blurry and disorienting storms we sometimes feel stuck in.  If you’ve ever wondered if you’re makin...

Good Morning - Welcome to: Ep. 968 - “Storm Pressure” Storms can complicate more than dealing with weather change, they interrupt system systems in our lives.  If you’re feeling under pressure lately - or the domino effect, one thing going wrong, so several things seem to falter, this talk is for you.

Ep. #967 - "Diamonds in the Storm" The weather across the US is harsh to say the least, but at times like this God often draws our hearts and hopes to Him.   The weather can preach better than most of us!

Welcome to Ep. #966 - “Serving for Life?” That sounds more like a sentence than a relationship, doesn’t it?  We’ll talk about the role of service (and what it isn’t) in the Christian life as a brief encouragement to launch your Thursday. 

Good morning, Grace Tribe!!  Ep. #965 - “Wisdom, Fruitfulness, and the Table We Choose“   So glad to be back LIVE with you all today!     Question: How do we choose wisely and live fruitfully?  Doesn’t that sound good?  The Bible instructs our direction in wisdom.
