  • Temitope - Setting Tables and Horizontal Worship

    Becoming comfortable in your own skin is more than a self-esteem issue, it's a relationship with God issue. We are all created in God's Image and are beautifully and wonderfully made. While we may not all be living in that reality and reflecting His glory, the truth remains. When we do accept and delight in the fact that God made us with great intention, we not only find security in Him but have a firm footing from which to help others see their value!

    Nathan's friend, Worship Leader, Musical Artist and Songwriter, Temitope, jumps on the podcast this week and they talk about the power of community, finding peace in God's design, and now we can be an encouragement to others as we rest in who God made us to be.
