If someone were to ask you if you were a prayer person, you would likely say, "Yes." But if that same person were to ask you if those prayers were effective, or if you believed God even heard them, there would likely be a very different response. One major reason would be because we don't know if we even know what we are doing. This episode looks at what Jesus had to say about prayer -- what to do and what NOT to do.

Tue, 06 Apr 2021 - 122 - 6 Truths Jesus Taught We Like to Forget
Let's be honest. There are a lot of things Jesus offers to rally around. Unmerited Grace. Mercy. Forgiving everything we have ever done or ever will do, forgetting it, AND taking the punishment for it. But then there are some aspects of being a follower of Christ that feel like hugging a porcupine or are about as smart as enticing a skunk to your porch with a can of cat food. Yet, they are the essence of Christianity. Today let's lean in to encounter what we may have been ignoring and consider embracing more of what Jesus has to offer in the Gospel.
Wed, 31 Mar 2021 - 121 - 5 Reasons to Believe Jesus is The Way
It sounds exclusive. Call it narrow. Anyone holding to a religion that accepts teaching that there can be only one way to God, is definitely small-minded, according to current cultural tides. The problem is, this belief is fundamental to basic Christianity. Why? How can we know it's true? And what could be said to express this belief gracefully in your everyday life? It's a worthy conversation today and needed for helping us interact with others.

Did you know you and I are much more concerned about what people think about the external factors of life--our appearance, our wealth, and success?

"Every organization is perfectly designed to get the results it's producing." That's what they say in the corporate world. The same might be said for relationships.
