Often we’re called to be a pattern, an example for others to follow. But what does that look like in everyday life? Listen in for some ideas.

Many days, it’s hard to have faith. On those days, Jesus’ faith (and the faith of our siblings in Christ) keep us deeply connected to God and the Holy Spirit’s grace, hope, peace, and love which enables us to boast joyfully, even on the worst days, about the Trinity’s goodness.

Lists are often good tools to help us reflect on our lives. One of the most famous lists in the Bible can also help us ponder our lives and our relationship with God.

Many of us take time to remember those who have passed on. For instance, we memorialize our fallen soldiers with wreaths on Memorial Day or perhaps we place flowers on the graves of loved ones on their birthdays. In the Bible we find several people raising stone moments to remember God’s faithfulness. Perhaps it might help us to trust God especially in the hard times of life if we did something similar.

So often, life is confusing, disorienting, hard. Jesus didn’t promise that life would be easy, but he did provide ways to experience his peace even in the midst of the struggle.

Most of us struggle with change, but God is always doing a new thing and invites us to join him in blessing the world through making earth more like heaven.

It can be so easy to get stuck in survival mode, but God wants to help us move to a thriving, abundant, expansive life. Listen in to find out more.

Sometimes there are things which terrify us, but we also know need to be addressed. We can trust Jesus to safely lead us to and through those things and into a life of peace and joy.

Some days it feels like oppression and evil are winning. But God will not be silenced and invites us to join the cosmic concert singing messages of peace and God’s favor into the darkness of this world.

Grace is one of the defining characteristics of God and therefore it should be of us. But we struggle to offer abundant grace. Listen in to hear Jesus’ call to offer prodigal - abundant and overflowing - grace.
