“Jesus said to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6 ESV). Dear Jesus, I acknowledge you are the only path to eternal life.

By Yvonne Morgan“Jesus said to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6 ESV). In this episode, we delve into the profound truth found in John 14:6, where Jesus declares, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." Amidst a world promoting religious coexistence, it's crucial to understand the unique path to knowing God as presented in the Christian faith. We explore the disciples' eagerness to know God and Jesus' clear instruction that He is the sole way to eternity with the Father. Despite many modern perspectives suggesting multiple paths to heaven, we affirm the singular truth of Christ's message.We begin by examining the importance of knowing ourselves according to God's standards. Recognizing our creation and belonging to God, acknowledging our sinful nature, and understanding that without Him, we remain in spiritual bondage are essential steps. Once we accept these truths, we can embark on the journey of truly knowing God. This process involves seeking the Holy Spirit's guidance, spending time with the Heavenly Father through scripture, prayer, and godly community, and applying the truth of God’s Word to our daily lives.Lastly, we emphasize the significance of a personal relationship with Jesus Christ in knowing God. It’s not just about acquiring facts but walking through life with Him, constantly engaging with Him in thought, conversation, and worship. True knowledge of God comes through believing in Jesus Christ, the only way to the Father. Join us as we explore how to truly know and love God as He loves us, and beware of false teachings that deviate from this Biblical truth.Read more

By Brenda SeefeldtThe Lord passed in front of Moses, calling out, “Yahweh! The Lord! The God of compassion and mercy! I am slow to anger and filled with unfailing love and faithfulness.” – Exodus 34:6In this episode, we explore a verse that beautifully captures the essence of God’s nature, repeated throughout the Bible more than 20 times. Despite this, many of us struggle to see God as being for us. This episode draws parallels with the well-known Still Face Experiment in attachment science, where a toddler reacts to a mother's unresponsive face, highlighting how we might perceive God’s still face in our lives.We delve into how these perceptions can create emotional disconnection and trust issues, contrasting with the biblical portrayal of God as compassionate, merciful, slow to anger, and filled with unfailing love and kindness. We discuss how broken human attachments can influence our view of God and how the Holy Spirit helps us rewire our brains for perfect love.Join us as we unpack the significance of daily interaction with the Holy Spirit, the importance of seeing God’s delighted face, and finding emotional safety and healing in His presence.

By Kim Gentry-MeyerI will walk about in freedom, for I have sought out Your precepts.” Psalm 119:45In this episode, we explore the profound experiences of a recent visit to Washington, DC, where our host had the privilege of touring the national monuments and memorials. The quiet respect, expertly crafted structures, endless rows of heroes' names, and personal mementos left by family members evoke somber gratitude for those who have fought to secure our freedoms. Unexpectedly, this journey also sparked a deep connection to Christian faith. From the Bible verses in Abraham Lincoln's speeches at the Lincoln Memorial to "Praise be to God" inscribed in Latin on the Washington Monument, the tour felt like a faith walk, intertwining themes of faith and freedom.Later, the visit to the Museum of the Bible and their virtual aerial tour of the same sites deepened this connection further, revealing even more Biblical references throughout the city. These experiences highlighted the importance of gratitude and the ease with which we can overlook our profound gifts. The ultimate freedom in Christ, paid for at the highest price, and our societal freedoms, including the freedom to practice faith, are privileges that can be taken for granted amidst daily chaos.This episode encourages listeners to prioritize daily moments of gratitude, thanking the Lord for freedoms, and seeking His guidance in making choices that honor them. Drawing inspiration from Psalm 119:45, "I will walk about in freedom, for I have sought out Your precepts," the episode emphasizes that walking in freedom is both a privilege and a responsibility. Listeners are invited to reflect on what it means to walk in freedom and to commit to making choices that honor these freedoms in their daily lives.

You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love. -Galatians 5:13 Lord, I’m sorry for hurting others in my church when we disagree. Please, give me Your heart to bring unity to my church relationships. Help me see Your image in others and begin loving them as You would.

By Charlaine MartinYou, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love. Galatians 5:13 In this episode, we reflect on Galatians 5:13 and the true meaning of freedom in Christ. As we prepare to celebrate Independence Day, the message focuses on a deeper form of freedom beyond national independence: freedom from unforgiveness. The episode describes a powerful worship service where believers from diverse backgrounds united in faith, echoing the unity Paul called for in the Galatian church. Despite their differences, they were reminded to serve one another humbly in love, guided by the Holy Spirit. The podcast challenges listeners to let go of unforgiveness and embrace the freedom that comes from living according to Jesus's teachings, fostering unity and love within the Christian community.

By Lori Altebaumer"The Lord gives freedom to the prisoners." – Psalm 146:7As Americans prepare to celebrate Independence Day with parades, concerts, cookouts, and fireworks, the podcast explores a deeper form of freedom: spiritual freedom from unforgiveness. The episode delves into how clinging to unforgiveness can feel justified and give a false sense of control, but ultimately, it only causes suffering to the person holding onto it.Psalm 146:7 speaks of freedom as being unbound and set loose, yet unforgiveness binds us as prisoners of our own making. The podcast describes how bitterness grows in the fertile soil of unforgiveness, constricting our hearts and giving the enemy a foothold in our spiritual lives. By withholding forgiveness, we think we're punishing those who hurt us, but we're the ones imprisoned.God offers the key to this self-imposed prison. In Christ, we are new creations (2 Corinthians 5:17) and can step into His promise of freedom at any time. Unlike nations that fight physical battles for freedom, our freedom is a gift from God when we surrender to Christ (Isaiah 61). Jesus Christ, who forgave His crucifiers, offers us the strength to let go of unforgiveness and receive the abundant life He promises (John 10:10).The episode concludes by challenging listeners to accept God's offer of freedom by choosing to forgive, following Jesus' example (Luke 23:34).
