The people that we find most challenging are often the perfect catalyst in our transformation into the image of Christ. There is always a place of acceptance and safety in God’s heart, and when His heart overwhelms our own, we dominate the enemy and open tough people up to kindness.


Key Scriptures:
+ 1 John 4:19. We love because he first loved us.
+ 1 Peter 5:7. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

Dealing with Difficult People

Graham Cooke, international speaker and author of 20+ books, has been a much needed guide beyond religious norms into a personal and dynamic relationship with God. His life and ministry are marked by a delightful, intimate, and unreserved two-way friendship with the Lord. This podcast is an invitation to explore some of the more radiant and lesser-known perspectives of the Kingdom of God and the Christian faith.

True transformation in the Kingdom occurs when we allow our mindsets to come into alignment with the thoughts of God. As we begin to see life from His higher perspective, our circumstances become our training grounds and we learn to walk with God at higher heights and farther distances.


Key Scriptures:


+ Amos 3:3. Can two walk together unless they are agreed?


+ Isaiah 55:8-9. My thoughts are not your thoughts nor my ways your way. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my thoughts higher than your thoughts, and my ways higher than your ways.


+ Colossians 3:1-3. If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

Transformation by Elevation

In today’s session, Graham Cooke explores how to recognize and experience God’s favor tailored to the specific circumstances we encounter. This type of favor shines brightest not when things are going smoothly, but particularly, when they aren’t.

Key Scriptures


+ Jeremiah 29:11. For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.


+ Deuteronomy 31:6-8. Be strong and courageous, do not be afraid or in dread of them, for the Lord your God is the One who is going with you. He will not desert you or abandon you…


+ Isaiah 41:10. Do not fear, for I am with you; Do not be afraid, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, I will also help you, I will also uphold you with My righteous right hand.’

Favor for Specific Circumstances

Favor is released because God has a passion for us that is designed to provoke astonishment. It’s a new creation reality that upgrades our expectation to the same level that Jesus enjoyed. Regardless of life events or any form of hardship, favor can elevate us to a place and position that empowers us to receive under pressure.


Key Scriptures:
+ John 17:23. I in them and you in me, that they may become perfectly one, so that the world may know that you sent me and loved them even as you loved me.
+ 2 Peter 1:3-4. By his divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life. We have received all of this by coming to know him, the one who called us to himself by means of his marvelous glory and excellence. And because of his glory and excellence, he has given us great and precious promises.

Cultivating an Extraordinary Relationship with God

The process we engage in with God is what makes us truly rich … not just the outcome at the end of the journey. We feel safe and free when we know how He wants to walk with us, and we are continually becoming more like Him as we learn to love the process. Joy, peace, and delight are not postponed until the outcome is seen. They can be discovered at every turn, throughout the entirety of our growth and development.


Key Scripture:
+ Jeremiah 17:7-8. Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord and whose trust is the Lord.
