We all want to hear the voice of God, but have you considered that God speaks in many different ways? Reading the word of God is just one, very clear way to hear God's voice, but there are other methods in which God speaks. Tune in as Pastor Joakim Lundqvist sheds light on hearing the voice of God in a variety of ways.

Prayer is more than just crying out to the Lord "when all else fails." The purpose of prayer is to be with God. Pastor Jude Fouquier teaches not only how we can pray, but how we can pray for one hour to enter into the soul of God and see supernatural things happen in our lives!

Ever feel selfish when you take care of yourself? What if someone told you that (wholistic) self-care is not selfish, but is actually stewardship and an act of worship? "As shepherds, we're used to bringing people to the streams of living water and we forget to drink from them ourselves." 

Tune in as Dr. Andy Yarborough, clinical psychologist of The Well Clinic, brings a powerful message on the sustainability factor - wholistic self-care.

Our mind is the largest battlefield we will ever face. Our hearts can desire a new path but our mind will hold us hostage. Our worldview has been shaped through our thought life oftentimes beginning at an early age. Thankfully, as believers, we have the ability to wage war against thoughts that have created ruts of negativity in our minds. We have a hope and an ability through God's word and the wisdom of practical practices to form new pathways that lead to a life of renewed thinking. Tune in with Jonathan Stockstill to hear how to break toxic thought patterns!
