What if Adventure

I'm talking about practice.

We talk about practical things to do when waiting on God. On top of that we touch on things to watch out for in our waiting prayers. Ultimately waiting is only part of the journey. It prepares us for subsequent seasons and where God is taking us according to His plan and glory. It is our part in this adventure with Him to trust Him well and to act in willing submission to the process. After all

"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

Jeremiah 29:11

Many are the times we find ourselves between where we want to be and where God places us. Our desires and God's decision can cause tension in our loves.

We talk about stewarding the waiting as well as the desires that cause us to feel like the wait is never ending.

What we do while waiting on God to fulfil the desires of our hearts really determine out growth and maturity. In our commitment to grow we must handle this time productively and in submission to God.

We learnt to tear down now it is time to build.

Heartbreaks do not end at the altar in poofy gowns and tailored suits. How we patch up after the argument becomes extremely essential in keeping a healthy relationship.

There are steps of reconciliation that we glean from our reconciliation to God through Christ. Listen in.

Time to build up and time to tear down - Ecclesiastes 3

We talk about how to tear down the Christian way. 

Breaking up does not have to be messy. In fact, Jesus' separation from His Church (though for a time) was anything but. In following His footsteps we learn how to exit without burning the bridges that once bound so strongly.

The hope is that this episode will give you the courage to let of the relationship that you need to☺

We relate as social creatures. In the Kingdom of God we elevate the relationships to a whole new holy level.

Christ teaches in relating to His church how to build and grow relationships. Following His blueprint, we explore what a Kingdom relationship is/means. After all the call of this podcast and community is to build Kingdom relationships.

We also delve into the endgame for any Christian and by extension the relationships that we get involved in.

It's a different format but that's how it came out.
