Leslie continues the He Is series with important Scriptural keys to finding our identity in Christ. We often have humanly-contrived ideas about "godly womanhood" and they can seem dour and oppressive. But God's vision and purpose for our lives is the opposite - it's amazing, life-giving and beautiful. In this episode, Leslie points us toward refreshing Biblical truths about Christ-centered, godly womanhood, and equips us to find strength and confidence in Christ and not ourselves. While the world says that self-esteem is the answer for our insecurity, in reality we will only gain lasting security when we look away from ourselves and toward Jesus Christ. The question “who am I?” is not nearly as important as the question, “who is He?"

Leslie continues the He Is series with a message about finding our identity in Christ. When we know who we are in Christ, we won't make the mistake of seeking purpose and fulfillment in the approval of others or unhealthy relationships. We will be content instead of desperate, peaceful instead of impatient, and secure instead of self-focused. As Leslie shares in this episode, knowing our position in Christ is the key to stepping into the life He has called us to live. It has been said that we can’t really know who we are until we know who Jesus is. But we can’t stop there. We must know who He is and what our position is in Him.

Leslie continues the He Is series with an inspiring reminder that Jesus is enough to satisfy us at the soul-level, no matter our season of life or circumstances. Many women struggle with finding contentment during singleness, while others feel frustrated and dissatisfied in marriage. It's all too easy to base our happiness on human relationships instead of our relationship with Jesus Christ. While it’s true that God designed us for relationship with others, it is not true that He alone isn’t enough to fulfill us at the deepest level, even if every form of human companionship is stripped away. As Leslie shares in this episode, the entire Bible is a love story — a romance between Jesus Christ and His Bride. Our earthly marriages are meant to showcase the ultimate marriage that we will one day share with Him. But even if we never experience earthly marriage, we can be completely fulfilled by our relationship with Jesus Christ.

Leslie continues the He Is series with a Biblical look at what it means to find our righteousness in Jesus Christ alone. Leslie unpacks the Biblical pattern for being clothed in the righteousness of Christ instead of relying on our own self-effort and human rules to be right with God. She explains that as healthy as personal convictions can be, they must always be an outflow of our love for Jesus Christ, not what we find our hope and identity in. When personal convictions are placed above Christ, they make us susceptible to self-righteousness and spiritual pride. And when that happens we completely miss the miracle of Jesus as our righteousness. This episode reminds us of the importance of abiding in Christ and placing our hope and identity in Him instead of in our own self-righteousness.

Leslie continues the He Is series with Part Two of her message on walking in the wisdom of Christ. There are many ear-tickling messages in the church today. Often, these ear-tickling messages come in attractive packages. When a little bit of truth is carefully blended with an ear-tickling lie, it’s easy to become convinced that it must be on target, simply because it sounds so pleasant and right. In this episode, Leslie offers practical ways to apply the wisdom of Heaven to new thoughts or ideas that we encounter and cultivate Biblical discernment in our Christian lives. Though there is much confusion in modern Christianity, Jesus has promised that those who seek His wisdom diligently will find it.

Leslie continues the He Is series with an exploration of Jesus as our Wisdom. We often reason according to human logic, but Heavenly wisdom reasons according to an entirely different pattern. The modern Church is filled with subtle error, so we must apply Heavenly wisdom to every message or idea we encounter. As Leslie explains in this episode, Jesus Himself is the Wisdom of God. Knowing Jesus, walking with Him and being rooted in His Word is what equips us to proactively protect our souls against the enemy’s insipid lies and walk in His Heavenly wisdom.

Leslie continues the He Is series with a powerful reminder of what it means to make Jesus our everything. In this episode Leslie challenges us to ask the question - Do I have true passion for Jesus Christ, or am I following Him out of obligation? Mediocrity is common in modern Christianity, but it is not mean to be our norm. Leslie offers Biblical inspiration and practical insights for overcoming apathy and cultivating a heart of true passion toward Christ, overcoming distractions and growing spiritually during busy seasons.

In this episode as part of the He Is series, Leslie unpacks Biblical keys to finding lasting joy in Christ. If persecuted Christians can rejoice in their prison cells, if impoverished people can be cheerful amidst their circumstances, and if the Apostle Paul could be happy even with his unimaginable trials, what excuse do we have not to embrace lasting joy? And yet many of us struggle with the pitfall of "delayed happiness", basing our joy on specific circumstances, hopes or dreams. In this message Leslie helps us transition from circumstantial happiness to unshakeable joy no matter what our circumstances - in Christ.
