We tend to forget God's grace and his gifts and toss them aside. As we prepare for Christmas, let us be reminded to believe in the Gift-Giver and receive his gift.

Do you want to know the Father's voice? Are you making excuses as to why you don't read the Bible? These two questions will help you as you listen to Dwayne Green talk about the importance of the scriptures in relation to God's Voice.

Don Cherry was recently fired for some comments he made on Hockey Night In Canada. Take a moment to listen how we as believers can learn from this as we listen to the voice of God in an ever changing society with an ever changing language.

We continue to ask the question, "Are you listening?" Sometimes we are not listening because we don't know what God sounds like. Take a moment to learn about one of the aspects of God's voice so that you can know God's voice when you hear it.

Sometimes it is hard to hear the sound of His voice. In a world full of noises and many different voices, we add to the discussion, mental health awareness. Are these problems when it comes to trying to hear God's voice? Can we discern a difference between a spiritual problem and mental health? I hope you will join us as we tackle this issue with grace as a way to begin the discussion.

Is it our responsibility as believers to listen to the voice of God and what happens when we don't? Let us take a moment over the next few weeks and look at what God's voice sounds like and what our responsibility as believers is when it comes to listening to his voice.

Every Sunday morning we gather to sing songs, to express gratitude, and to give praise to God. We are offering and we are encouraging others to participate, but even Psalm 95 expresses a strong statement. "If only you would listen to his voice today!" Why are we offering this praise? Is it for show? Are we ultimately hardening our hearts when we do this? Or are we sincerely living a life by offering the praise we do and are we listening to his voice?

Jesus was about to receive his arrest and crucifixion and yet he gave a song of thanks. Possibly a song about praising God and his steadfast love. If Jesus can chose to have an attitude of gratefulness in a trying moment like this, how much more should we be willing to give thanks in every situation?

All ten were cleansed. When the Samaritan came back to express gratitude, Jesus offered forgiveness. The other nine were merely cleansed, but one came back and was made whole. Our ingratitude can be more deadly than leprosy, therefore God knows that joy is good for you.

How are you when it comes to patience? What is your prayer life look like? Where is your position with God? All great questions to ask before diving into this podcast, so that you might be able to heed the final warnings from James.
