The 2 Greatest

Is the Gospel just for when we die or does that good news also begin changing everything right here and right now?  The Prophets and the Savior clearly believed in the earthy gospel.

NAMING things can be powerful.  Naming our sins can be transformative.  You don't have to hide it or fear it--say it--you're forgiven!

Today's episode is a conversation with my friend and fellow Pastor John Leffler about the challenges of Pastoring in a Pandemic!

Instead of just saying "I want to do better this year:" what if we have ONE thing in mind?  Ask the Lord to give you a single focus in 2022.  See what happens to your ability to love God and others when you have ONE THING you're seeking most.

You know what it's like to love talking to a wise, older person who knows you and loves you unconditionally.  Is your conversation with God like that?  Let's make this year a year of talking to Papa.

It's amazing how if you start, OFF, by just a little, you can miss your destination by a mile!  God gave us a new year and one gift is the intentional tweak.  What small change do you want to make now that will make a big difference later?

When you care for a person your heart hurts when he or she doesn't have the things in life needed most.  So we pray for him or her.  And our prayers include lots of essentials.  This episode challenges you to pray this year for ONE person and to pray for the THE one missing piece the person needs most.

Are you buff?  All toned and healthy?  If so great! But what about being a body builder for Jesus?  Say what?  Listen in!

What are your BIGGEST time wasters?  The first step is to see it admit it, and then to replace it.  Redeem the time.  Time is precious let's not waste it in 2022.

If you want to be good at anything you need to practice.  How does that concept play into our walk with God?  What will you practice more in 2022?
