Double Testimony

For the final episode of Season One, Adwait and Anna look back on God's faithfulness through this series and some highlights from each of their guests. They then walk us through the significance of the title--Double Testimony. They explore what a testimony is, why it matters, and the impact is should have on your life.

This week, Adwait and Anna slowly draw near to the end of season one as Anna shares her own testimony. She shares the impact her parents example of living out their faith had on her realising the presence of God in her own life. However, she also discusses the need for her faith to extend beyond her parents' decisions. She also shares the effects of seeing some of her own generation slip away from following God had on her own growth. She discusses the importance of cultivating a faith that lasts permanently and grows daily. This is not easy, and requires intention and effort, but is worth SO much.

This week, Adwait and Anna are joined by their friend, Zac, who talks about the wonderful reality of Almighty God as our 'Dad.' Zac shares the importance of following God and choosing to know Him as our Dad in front of anyone. No situation or person should change our passion for our Dad. Zac also discusses the power of leading people towards God in your youth, and the importance of seeking Him in the little, behind-the-scenes moments and not just in front of an audience.

This week, Adwait was joined by his good friend, Jordan, who shares the importance of clinging to God even when we are going through tough times and life is not turning our as we expected. Jordan talks about the difference between just knowing things about God, and actually experiencing the fullness of God. This can only happen as we get to know God and let Him reveal His goodness to us. Jordan discusses the importance of intentionally seeking God in the times we do not actually feel like it. It is in these times, as we intentionally draw near to God, that He draws near to us (James 4:8).

This week, Adwait and Anna are joined by their friend, Cara, who talks about how God has given each of us a different testimony. It is impossible to compare these differences because they are so powerful in their own, unique ways. Cara touches on the joy and wonder of being known and loved by Jesus Christ, and how this should impact our lives, even in the small things. No part of our lives is insignificant to God, and He wants to use all of it. Cara points out that you don't have to be doing big things for God all the time. Often, God calls us to follow Him quietly and humbly, and to reach out to our own communities and circles, that only we can reach. He has an ultimate plan in everything, and you have not been overlooked.

This week, Anna is joined by one of her good friends and role models, John, who discusses the reality of slowly fading away from Christ when your life becomes focused on the things of this world. John points out that no matter where you are at with God, He has a plan to draw you back. God sees you, and is calling to you. You need only turn back to Him. John also talks about the importance of looking into Christianity for yourself, and not just following the crowd. He quotes Matthew 7:13-14, "Wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it." What an incredible joy to find it!

This week, Adwait and Anna are joined by Anna's uncle, Ant, who discusses the importance of imitating Christ in how we live, love and point others to Him. Ant talks about his time spent in the navy and his decision to "pick a team" when in an environment that was not supportive of his faith. Ant points out the heart of God for His children, and the fact that we so often assume that we have disappointed God, rather than celebrating the joy of grace freely lavished upon us. As we seek to be 'planted' we should never forget to love as Jesus loved, but also to trust from the very core of our being, that we, ourselves, are so loved by God.

This week, Adwait and Anna are joined by their friend Bec who discusses the beauty and how of being a child of God. She points out the complete awe of salvation, and the desperate need we each have for Jesus. It is so easy to lose sight of what Jesus has done for us when we are used to the idea of Him. However, Bec points out that we can only be made whole when we recognise how much we need God, and run to Him to be saved and loved. As we seek to follow God, and to be 'planted,' we should never forget the utter joy of being found. All we need is HIM.

Welcome to Double Testimony! This week, Adwait and Anna are joined by their good friend Jaydee whose discusses the importance of being intentional in your faith. One big part of being 'planted' in your faith is putting in effort and commitment, even if you don't always feel like it. Jaydee brings up some awesome points about turning your faith into action, and putting aside time dedicated to growing closer to God.
