Do you understand the difference between being remorseful and true repentance?

Remorse is a deep regret or sorrow for wrongdoing, often stemming from the consequences of one's actions. Repentance, on the other hand, goes beyond regret and involves a sincere turning away from sinful behavior, seeking forgiveness, and committing to a changed life guided by God's principles. Repentance reflects a genuine transformation of heart and mind.

We have all felt remorse for something we have done or maybe someone we have hurt but have we been truly repentant?

How well do you know Peter? Was Peter active in his faith before he met Jesus?

Peter was a Jewish man but he was more of a believer than a follower before becoming one of Jesus' most trusted disciples. Join Shelli and let's dig deeper into Peter and how his story may not be too different from someone you are disciplining or maybe you can relate to Peter personally.

Scriptures: Matthew 16:21, Luke 22:55-60, John 21:15, 1 Cor 15:15, Acts 4:13 & James 5:19

Discover Your Purpose, Uncover Its Inherent Value, and Achieve Success!

Have you ever pondered the profound questions: What is my purpose? How can I truly recognize its worth? And what does genuine success look like in the pursuit of it?

In the grand picture of life, God has woven unique purposes into the very fabric of our being. Yet, with these divine desires comes a shared responsibility. Many of us might be unknowingly missing out on the incredible blessings God has prepared for us simply because we haven't actively engaged in our purpose.

God yearns for a partnership with us, a collaboration born out of purpose. He desires to see the desires of our hearts fulfilled. This relationship is not just about receiving; it's about active participation, aligning our efforts with His divine plan. Embracing our purpose becomes the cornerstone of our connection with God, transforming our lives into a remarkable journey of fulfillment, value, and ultimate success.

In this last episode of the Abide series, Shelli will tackle how abiding in God for nourishment is the only way to sustain us in this life. Did you know what you feed your spirit is important? Wait what?!? How does one feed their spirit?

Effective- Successful in producing a desired and intended result.

God has the most important job as the gardener and caretaker. He watches over and makes His vineyard the best it can be.

John 15:1-2 "I am the true vine and my father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch that does not bear fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, so that it will be even more fruitful."

Repentance isn't for punishment, its a gift.

John 15:7-8 Jesus says that His words should remain in us so that we have power by receiving what we ask of the Father. The disciples who were present at the time of Jesus witnessed his power and exercised it for themselves. Mark 3:14- Jesus is the one who appoints authority. Christ wants us to abide in him so that by doing so he will work through us. Jesus wants his followers to free people just like he did. He freed captives. His name holds power over evil.
