In this episode, Brett shares 10 tips for experiencing a great year!

Grace Maragni is back, this time to interview the host of Sound of Truth Podcast about his recently released book, These Five Anchors.

Brett is joined by his oldest daughter, Grace, as she shares her personal testimony and they talk a little about when to baptize a child.

Psalm 126 briefly encapsulates both the joy and wonder of salvation with the burden of desiring others to experience it.

In Psalm 117, the shortest chapter in the Bible, God commands us to praise Him. But as Brett shows us from this Psalm, it is reasonable for God to do this... not egotistical.

Psalm 103.1-5 presents to God's people five benefits from our relationship with Him that are worth keeping in mind:

- He forgives our sins

- He heals us

- He redeems us from a low place

- He crowns us with love and compassion

- He satisfies us with good things

In the second part of his interview with Brett, Jim Muir tells stories of God's blessings in his life as well as an amazing God story of patriotism when America was grieving.

Jim Muir has a fascinating work history. Right out of high school he went to work in the coal mines and did so for twenty years before finding himself out of work and wondering what to do next. He enrolled in the local community college where one of the professors spoke into his life in a way that gave him hope and a purpose. Hear the full story in this encouraging episode.

Retired seminary professor Dr. Jim Kinnebrew joins Brett to talk about Romans 8.28-29 and why it much it means to him...

28 And we know that God works all things together for the good of those who love Him, who are called according to His purpose. 29 For those God foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brothers. (Berean Standard Bible)
