The Ray Edwards Show is a weekly podcast dedicated to Internet Business, Leadership, and Productivity. My goal is to help you succeed with your online business, and this show is for you, whether you're a seasoned veteran who's been online for years — or you haven't even made your first dollar online! We can all reach for higher levels of success in business and in life!

My intention is to publish a new podcast each week on Tuesdays, along with an outline (or "show notes" like these.) While you will be able to listen or download episodes here on my blog, it will be much easier for you to subscribe in iTunes.

Spiritual Foundations

Facing tough times? One reason God performs miraculous works is so that we will remember them. These remembrances, or testimonies, are to be food for us! That food – nourishment – reminds us and feeds our faith so we can believe that He always remembers His promises to us.

"He has made His wonderful works to be remembered;
The Lord is gracious and full of compassion.
He has given food to those who fear Him;
He will ever be mindful of His covenant."

Psalm 111:4
