"So many people have allowed trauma to become the primary narrative of their life. It’s how they get attention. It’s how they feel about their lives. It’s important that we help them step out of that identity and step into the identity of who they really are in Christ and walking the dream of God for their life."

Our guest today, Dr. Mike Hutchings, is the Director of Education for Global Awakening. He is also the Founder of the God Heals PSTD Foundation which equips churches to minister healing to those who suffer from PTSD from the wounds of war and life.

We hope you enjoy this episode, and our opening bumper - which was literally recorded "from the road" between 2 trainings out west. It includes a now humorous "could-have-been-a-catastrophy" personal story involving a couple of moose.

"I could let him be God for me, but couldn’t let him be human for me."

"Where the image of God is, there is the presence of God. The presence of God was meant to rest in human beings."

What does it mean to be human? What is the significance of Jesus, the Son of God, entering humanity? What is a "breathing ceremony" in the context of the image and likeness of a King? What does the Creation narrative tell us? And, "What is mankind that you are mindful of them?" (Psalm 8)

Explore some deep waters with us in the continuation of our conversation with theologian and professor, Cherith Nordling. Your eyes will be opened to profound truths as she unpacks the beauty of our humanity and the image of God that we all carry.

If you're enjoying this podcast, we'd love for you to let your friends know. This conversation is way too good to keep to yourself. 👍

"There is never a minute that God does not see us with him. I move through the world as a finished daughter of the Most High. God has so much compassion for me because I don’t know that yet."

Our conversation with Dr. Cherith Nordling, PhD, will draw you in to the beauty of what it means to be human. You will come to love this teacher and mentor in theological education and formation who is also skilled in Nonprofit Organizations, Pastoral Counseling, Leadership, and Preaching. Strong professional with a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) focused in Theology from University of St. Andrews. With all of those credentials, you might be surprised to find her also very accessible and real.

Our conversation grew as we continued to talk and we realized quickly that this would be only part 1 of our conversation. Part 2 is coming very soon where we talk more about learning how to be a human from the Son of God. 

Join us for a powerful, Kingdom conversation with our new friend, Arun Bulchandani, as we explore the importance of caring for our physical bodies, understanding how creation fits in, and learning what it means to experience oneness with Christ.

We are very excited to introduce you to Leif Hetland, who is the founder and Director of Global Missions Awareness, and the author of several books, including his latest, The Love Awakening. This man is full of joy and he shares it wherever he goes. We have some great conversations about Gen Z, and what God is doing among that generation right now, and also about experiencing and sharing the love of Jesus with others. We also find out something very encouraging from him about our book, Streams of Healing, which you can order on Amazon right now. Find out more about Leif and his resources at leifhetland.com

God is moving in sweet and powerful ways among Gen Z right now. No matter what you want to call it, something is definitely happening and it is sweetly and powerfully impacting that generation and more on college campuses such as Asbury, and even in some churches across the country. Many students are connecting with the love of God in ways they never imagined. We have some important thoughts on this that may help give you more context for what we do and why we do it. We talk about it in the first 10 minutes of our show today. We hope you'll stick around for that before we head into our conversation with Trisha Frost. The connection here is that Trisha's story is one of how an encounter with the love of God literally changed her family - and it happened at another outpouring of God's love in the early 90's at a church in Toronto.

We wanted to share with you about our Inner Healing Symposium coming up November 17, 2022, and our vision for it as an infusion of hope as we emerge from the global trauma of the past 2 years. This is history in the making. Please join us! www.innerhealingsymposium.eventbrite.com

We're back to finish up our deep and intriguing conversation with our friend, Brian Orme. We're talking about talking to plants, exploring what and where heaven is, and getting real about our role on the earth and how our view of "end times" can make a huge difference in how - and IF we step into it. Buckle up - this one will make you think.
