Emunah (Hebrew for faith, belief)

Shape, Mold, or Stuck- When God works with Mud


Listen Later

In this inspiring episode of Emunah (Hebrew for faith or belief),

host Dr. Tamara Henry teams up with the dynamic online Bible study group
Restore, Refocus, and Refresh (RRR) a community that meets the first
12 days of each month to explore Holy Spiritled themes for real-life growth.

This months focus, Shape, Mold, or Stuck, invites listeners to

see mud not as a mess, but as Gods creative material. Drawing from
scriptures like Genesis 2:7, John 9:67, Psalm 40:2 and 69:2,
and Isaiah 64:8, the group unpacks how God uses even the muddy seasons
of life to form, refine, and restore us.

Four members of RRR bring fresh insights through four powerful points:

  1. We Are Formed
  2. from Mud
    Minister Julian M. Daniel an East Tennessee musician, worship
    leader, and emerging minister reminds us that God shapes beauty from
    humble beginnings. A Lee University graduate in Ministry Leadership,
    Julian now shares the gospel through both music and preaching alongside
    his wife, Jennifer.
  3. Mud as a Symbol
  4. of Struggle
    Apostle Dr. Jennifer London, pastor of Anointed for Christ
    Ministries and Bread of Life Outreach in Georgia, draws from
    over 32 years of ministry to show that even our struggles serve purpose.
    She emphasizes that true leadership begins with servanthood and even in
    the mud, God is molding us for mission.
  5. Mud as the
  6. Medium of Miracle
    Elder Marcia Hughes of Columbia, SC, brings warmth and wisdom as
    she explores how God turns what seems dirty or broken into the very
    material for healing and transformation much like Jesus did when He used
    mud to restore sight.
  7. The Choice of
  8. the Clay Shaped or Stuck
    Sister Yvonne Burton, a retired nurse from Columbia, SC, reminds us
    that while God is the Potter, we must yield to His shaping. Her life of
    faith, family, and devotion beautifully reflects what it means to stay
    moldable in the hands of the Creator.

    Key Takeaways

    • Dont despise
    • small beginnings or your muddy moments God works with raw material.
    • Once stuck, we
    • cant climb out alone. Deliverance comes when we call on the One who lifts
      us out of the miry clay.
    • God can use
    • what looks dirty or useless as the very tool for healing and
      transformation.
