I thought I didn't have anything to share with you this week but I do.   God is faithful, and he will not let you be tested beyond your strength, but with the testing he will also provide the way out so that you may be able to endure it. 1 Corinthians 10:13   God is faithful. Prayer for you. Love you, Rev. Kenn Blanchard

Didn't think I had anything to share   -  Episode 337

Spring revival   KJV Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.   This means that our knowledge of men can no longer be based on their outward lives (indeed, even though we knew Christ as a man we do not know him like that any longer). For if a man is in Christ he becomes a new person altogether—the past is finished and gone, everything has become fresh and new. All this is God’s doing, for he has reconciled us to himself through Jesus Christ; and he has made us agents of the reconciliation. God was in Christ personally reconciling the world to himself—not counting their sins against them—and has commissioned us with the message of reconciliation. We are now Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were appealing direct to you through us. As his personal representatives we say, “Make your peace with God.” For God caused Christ, who himself knew nothing of sin, actually to be sin for our sakes, so that in Christ we might be made good with the goodness of God.   2 Cor 5:17   There should be evidence of your faith, your salvation, your walk.  I give six examples this week.   Love you,   Kenn    kenn.blanchard@gmail.com

Are You Waiting for a Sign? (Episode 335)

Going heavy on this Resurrection Sunday.   Why did He come?   For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.  Luke 19:10   A challenge to do better.   J.O.Y.    Great Commission: Go, therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,   Greatest Commandments: But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.“Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and most important commandment. The second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself. All the Law and the Prophets depend on these two commandments” (Matthew 22:37–40).   Kenn@speaklifechurch.net  kenn.blanchard@gmail.com  

Why Did He Come?  (Episode 334)

El Roi.  God sees what you have overcome and dealing with still.  He loves you.   Psalm 56:8, “You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book.” (NLT)   Proverbs 15:3, “The LORD is watching everywhere, keeping his eye on both the evil and the good.” (NLT)   After Lot had gone, the Lord said to Abram, “Look as far as you can see in every direction—north and south, east and west.15 I am giving all this land, as far as you can see, to you and your descendants as a permanent possession.16 And I will give you so many descendants that, like the dust of the earth, they cannot be counted! Genesis 13:14-16.    Kenn
