Teach & Talk with Lisa Schwarz

Jesus makes a stunning promise in John 15:

“If you live in union with me… ask whatever you desire.”

But that promise is rooted in one word: abide.

In this message, Lisa continues unpacking what it means to live in “life union” with Christ—not visiting God occasionally, but making Him your true dwelling place.

This episode explores:

• Why connection to the Vine is the source of real spiritual power

• The difference between imitation and transformation

• What abundant fruit actually looks like in a believer’s life

• How God’s love nourishes the heart in ways nothing else can

Jesus was never looking for believers who perform.

He was forming disciples whose lives reflect His nature.

When you abide in Him, abundance becomes the natural overflow.

In this teaching from John 15, Lisa explores Jesus’ declaration: “I am the true vine.”

What if the very seasons we resist—pruning, pressure, and refinement—are actually evidence that God trusts us with more fruit?

Jesus reveals a powerful Kingdom truth: fruitfulness doesn’t come from striving. It comes from staying connected to the source.

In this episode, Lisa unpacks:

• Why pruning is often a sign of fruitfulness—not failure

• The difference between chasing anointing and pursuing God’s character

• What it truly means to remain in “life union” with Christ

• How intimacy with God becomes the birthplace of lasting fruit

When your life is rooted in the Vine, fruit isn’t something you manufacture.

It’s something that flows.

What if the move of God isn’t something that fills a room but something that flows from a person?

In this message, Lisa returns to Jesus’ invitation in John 7: “Anyone who is thirsty, come to me and drink.” The promise was never just about being filled... it was about becoming a river.

In this episode you’ll discover:

• Why God is more interested in filling you than filling a room
• How surrender becomes the doorway to deeper waters
• What it means to trust the current of the Holy Spirit
• Why comfort zones quietly limit our capacity in Christ

The question is not whether the river is flowing.

The question is how deep you’re willing to go.

God isn’t looking for a moment. He’s looking for a people.

In Part 2, Lisa moves from surrender to activation—because the kingdom was never meant to be talk without power. She exposes “tool-driven” religion, calls believers back to altar identity, and invites you into the kind of yes that becomes a resting place for the Spirit… and a release point for gifts that actually change lives.

What if the Holy Spirit isn’t avoiding you—what if He’s waiting for stillness?

In Part 1, Lisa unpacks the moment the Spirit rested on Jesus (not just visited), and why surrender—ceasing resistance—is often the doorway to a life where the Spirit remains. This is a call to quiet the inner noise, lay down the tools, and return to the altar with nothing to prove—only room to receive.

Dormancy is not death. And waiting is not abandonment.

In Part 2 of The Wait, The Breath, and the Breakthrough, Lisa continues in Psalm 40, moving from breakthrough into surrender. What if growth is happening beneath what feels still? What if your obedience is what expands your capacity?

In this episode, she explores:

• Why intimacy in the closet determines authority in public
• How your “yes” grows your capacity in Christ
• What it means to become the sacrifice — not just bring one
• How to use the Word to align your soul with truth

Every “yes” to God stretches you beyond comfort and into calling.

What if the waiting isn’t punishment… but preparation?

What if the breath of God is closer than you think?

In this rich and raw teaching from Psalm 40, Lisa invites listeners into the holy tension between anointing and appointing. With prophetic insight and honest reflection, she uncovers how God breathes purpose into desolate places—and why learning to inhale again is often the beginning of healing.

This episode will challenge and equip you to:

• Recognize the stretch between being called and being released
• Confront what your soul believes about waiting
• Let Scripture rescue you from discouragement and delay
• Cultivate praise as your automatic response, not your last resort
• Anticipate blessing after blessing—not just once, but in increase

If you’ve been marked by God but feel stuck in the middle, this episode will breathe fresh wind into your assignment.

Tongues, prophecy, healing, words of knowledge—it’s not hype, it’s the Holy Spirit through people. In Part 3 of this power-packed series, Lisa dives into the gifts of the Spirit and how they operate in real life. With practical insight and passionate teaching, she breaks down each gift, how to cultivate them, and why love is the plumb line. This isn’t just theology—it’s training for the wild, Spirit-led life you were made for.

Having the Holy Spirit in you changes your identity. Having Him on you changes the world around you. In Part 2 of this series, Lisa unpacks the “uponning”—the baptism of the Holy Spirit that empowers you for mission, not just personal encounters. With humor, conviction, and Scripture, she confronts passive Christianity and asks: What are you doing with what you’ve been given? This episode is a call to activate, not just accumulate.

What if everything you were taught about the Holy Spirit was only partially true? In this bold opener to our 3-part series, Lisa shares how spiritual curiosity led her from doctrine to demonstration. Through personal stories, scriptural clarity, and unflinching honesty, she challenges us to embrace mystery, invite transformation, and rediscover the power of the Spirit. This episode lays the foundation for understanding the difference between having God in you—and having God on you.
