The 320 Podcast

The Bible has plenty to say about the kind of friends you need to help you grow in Christ Jesus. New seasons at times will call you into new faces that you'll need to ready you for new assignments. This podcast is to share a writing the Lord gave me called, Your Circle Matters. I talk honestly about the pitfalls that can occur when you're surrounded by the wrong people in any given season....

Over the years, I often misunderstood some of God's ways. I would be found wondering, "Is this it?" I always seemed to be trying to get "somewhere." That is a good question for some circumstances, but not for others. Often your "It" is self-limiting, and you do not realize that there is way more to your walk with Christ than that little ole "It." Today I...

Worship is more than a 3 song set. It really is a life of obedience, following Jesus. Let's look at what God says obedience is. Find an obedient heart, and you'll find a true worshiper who intimately loves Jesus.

My own life experiences with Jesus have proven the Word of God to be true. While in prayer, the Lord gave me a vision, which I share on today's podcast. The vision sent me to Isaiah 41:17-18. Let's look at it together. Today we talk about the springs that can come while in desert seasons as I share a song not yet recorded with you that lyrically will speak to your heart about the love of J...

We tend to be creatures of habit. Because of this, we tend to think God will do the same things again the same way, yet that is rarely the case. He breaks our patterns, our traditions, and that which we have molded as the only way to do things. I love to say, "God is the boss of me" but it's taken me many years, honestly, to let Him break my expectations, my schedules, and my control...

In the middle of walking with Christ and trying our best to go where we are to go, we often forget the truth of the matter. Being divinely marked means we need not strive, but abide. All manner of fear and insecurities rise to make us believe the lie that God has left us to our own devices. Sometimes there's a hallway of waiting, and even that is a season divinely marked. Let's talk about...

Today I share a moment when the enemy came for my life through secret fears. The thing about fear is it’s not from the Lord and Jesus wants us to often walk through our worst fears to see how we can always lean on Him. It can be a real warfare kind of moment as you face fears by facing the demonic realm. Christ has all you need and you are more than a conqueror through Him.

It is a good idea to venture out of your "norm" with Christ. Whether it's your normal denomination, place of worship, gatherings, etc. You need to go see the Kingdom work elsewhere and how Jesus is operating in other arenas you've not yet been exposed to. Is there always a need for caution, yes. However, the Holy Ghost in you will reveal the truth to you, so you need not fear a new place or a new...

In this season, God is really speaking to many we serve through dreams, including myself. For a number of years now, God has given me clarity to ministry direction, new assignments, and even warnings through my dreams. Dreams can be a language from God. It was the same throughout the scriptures. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Are you paying attention to your dream life, or are you d...

God mantles His people uniquely and specifically. Before our frame was visible, He saw us. He designed us for a mission. He knew exactly who we were to become. Yet sometimes we have no idea what that mission really is. We have our own ideas and heart desires that may or may not line up with what God has actually called us to do and be. On this episode, I’ll be sharing a personal season where God c...

I've found the Land of Familiar is likely the most dangerous place one could ever be. It can go undetected for years, lulling one to sleep rather than urging one onward with Christ. This episode is to wake up all those in the land of familiar so that you can be all Christ Jesus designed you to be.

Much can get us off the wall from that which Christ has called us to do. Sometimes I watch slowly a sweet one abandon entirely the call of God on his or her life. A fast-flowing river of "this" or "that" seems to carry them further and further away from that which they were designed to do in the Kingdom of God. Let us be so careful we do not do the same.

Today will be a bit different as I walk you through a dream the Lord recently gave me. It is a teachable moment of how to pay attention to your dream life where the Lord is concerned and how to pray them through as well as let the Holy Spirit lead you to the meaning. I do consider this dream to be a warning dream for the body of Christ.

Just because we are in the will of God doesn't mean that we won't experience seasons of loneliness. Leonard Ravenhill would often talk about the loneliness of God's prophets in his sermons. Today, we see that it is still very much part of our experience walking with Christ. Jessica Gunter joins me to just have an honest conversation about loneliness.

This episode is so dear to our hearts. It is a story of healing for our sis, Debby Mathis. She shares a bit about the healing journey as well as what it feels like to be in a flying season with Christ. This is going to be so helpful for other hearts afraid to walk into their own healing. Debby recently finished teaching a women's class on Boundaries, where all that she has learned personally came...

For a few days, the whisper regarding the sword of Goliath would not leave me. I had been in 1 Samuel for my daily reading. Let's look at the journey of David and how God prepared ahead of time all that he would need even while in his deepest trial.

There are a million ways God has changed my life. From the beginning of my walk with Him, he has continued to make changes in me. We are all being transformed into His image. Just like you, I am a nobody that God decided to use for more than I could have ever thought or imagined. When He gave me that scripture years ago, I honestly didn't know what it would mean in the years to come. Through every...

Good friends Shana and Shelly discuss for us the gift of songwriting, how they began with the Lord, and how they view the gift as a mere byproduct of their relationship with Christ. This should encourage younger songwriters or even writers to be as unique as God has designed you to be and to avoid pitfalls that might be industry but not necessarily God's path for you.

Several years ago now, the LORD had given me a sweet story of a little girl that Jesus loves. I had been prompted to read it to a group of women in restoration from addiction. I had no idea this little story would touch them so deeply in their hearts that day.  I thought perhaps, dear listener, that you might need it also. You'll hear the echoes of the scriptures as His Word embraces you and...

Years ago, God put me in touch with a sweet woman of God. Recently, she released a Bible Study called WANTED. The Bible Study is a beautiful look at the Song of Solomon. I knew I had to chat with her. You will not want to miss this podcast as Angela shares what God placed in her heart to release in this Bible Study. You will be sharpened by listening as she walks us through the Word and as we see...

Often God has used me when I had no idea He was doing so. Other times, there would be a moment of "aha" as I realized He had me on assignment. God desires to use you and if you'll say, "Yes" He will put you in situations where He will use you anywhere, anytime, with anyone. Today I share a couple of sweet memories of when God used me with unexpected hearts in need.

I wanted to wrap up Season 2 of The 320 Podcast with a discussion on REGRETS. It seems to be a topic all of our support groups have been having and even struggling with. Let me encourage you in the Word while sharing some personal regrets that I've learned to place in the hand of Jesus for His planned purpose.

On this final segment from Shelly’s live interview, she talks with Hunter Logan of HLE Radio about suffering seasons, dying to your own will, and the authority of the believer.

Hunter asks Shelly about an encounter she had shared with a woman who was possessed by an evil spirit. She shares details and how God was preparing her then for a coming deliverance ministry.

We are sharing the next three weeks Shelly's live radio interview where she gave a sneak peek of her latest music single, Boat Ride with Jesus .  She talks with HLE Radio about life in ministry, walking with Christ, and how suffering seasons have played a role in her Kingdom assignments. This episode is 1 of 3 segments, so be sure and listen for the remaining weeks to catch the full live show...
