Repentance is at the very foundation of Christianity - it was at the forefront of Jesus' ministry and those who He commissioned to preach the gospel to the ends of the earth.

Most Christians understand the importance of repentance... the problem lies in the fact that most Christians don't understand what repentance is.

This causes us to place a huge focus on the wrong thing!

This week's podcast delves into the topic of repentance, why it's important, what it really is and how we walk in repentance daily as believers.

Growing up I had no idea what to do with the law. I mean, as Christians we have been freed from the law and live under grace... but God gave it right? Surely we can't just throw it away. It's all throughout the scriptures!

So what do I as a believer do with the law?

In this podcast we are going to dive right into the depths of this topic and we will discover that while the law is good it is not for the believer.

Growing up my number one prayer was "God help me love you more"... I say growing up... but I mean until just a couple of years ago.

In my experience it is the number 1 prayer of most people I meet.

But the truth is it's evidence that we are focusing on the wrong thing. Our love for God.

If we focused on His love for us then we would love God with everything we can... our issue is we are focused on us and not on God.

In today's podcast I talk about:

- Why so many believers struggle to love God more

- Why Jesus said "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength

- How trying to love God effects your ability to serve God

- How trying to love God effects your ability to hear God

- How trying to love God effects your ability to approach God

- How trying to love God effects your ability produce the fruit of the Spirit

- What you should do as a believer to grow in your love for God

Our words are extremely powerful. What we say is heavily influenced by our beliefs and if it's not if we say it long enough it will influence our beliefs.

On this week's podcast I will be interviewing Dan Heroy on the power of our words and the importance of our language as believers, how that language can have an influence on our lives but also on the lives of others.

The scriptures are extremely clear that as Christians we have been set free from sin. We no longer live under the bondage of sin.

But the truth is we all mess up occasionally (or frequently if you are like me!) in some way or another. So what are the biggest reasons Christians still sin and how can we be free from sin?

It's really easy when we are walking in grace and freedom to get impatient or frustrated with those who do not walk in the same levels of freedom and grace as us. Of course, nobody was ever forced into freedom, nor will being legalistic about grace bring anyone into grace.

Today's podcast (my first!) looks at some practical things we can remember and apply to our lives to help the people around us move forward in their journey of freedom and grace.
