- 241241. WTDWYWTQ: Understanding QuittingYesterday we introduced our series on What To Do When You Want To Quit, and today we begin by understanding quitting in a bit more detail. Why we feel like quitting and what are some things we can do to stop ourselves from quitting?
- 242242. WTDWYWTQ: Anyone Can Experience ThisSo often we're told as Christians that we're supposed to have faith greater than fear at all times, and to feel like quitting can make us feel like "bad Christians". This is not the case -- anyone and everyone will feel like they want to quit sometimes, it's a human quality. But how do we make it through? Let's find out together.
- 243243. WTDWYWTQ: Avoiding What's Most HelpfulWhen we're faced with our toughest moments in our walk with God, we sometimes forget that the simple solution is always to go to Him. We will always try to solve our problems our way, alone and misguided.
- 244244. WTDWYWTQ: Next StepsWe wrap up our series, What To Do When You Want To Quit, today -- it's been very impactful for all of us at the studio and we hope it's taught you some things to keep you going in those times of wariness. So what's the next steps following all of what we covered this week? Let's find out together.
- 245245. Take A Pause: Strategic PauseWe begin our Take A Pause series with a message on taking the appropriate amount of time to sit and plan our next move, hence a "strategic pause". With some things in our life, it's necessary to take that pause, but to also know when it's time to take action.
- 246246. Take A Pause: The Power Of A PauseContinuing our series, Take A Pause, we break down P.A.U.S.E into it's core elements. What does it mean to pause, and how do we use this moment to strengthen our relationship with God?
- 247247. Take A Pause: P.A.U.S.EWe had so much to say about day 2 of Take A Pause that we're wrapping up P.A.U.S.E today. We broke it down simply so that we can apply it to our lives every day with ease.
- 248248. Take A Pause: Don't Miss What God Has For YouFor everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven - Ecclesiastes 3:1
- 249249. Take A Pause: God's PlanGod has two plans -- the sovereign plan and His specific plan for each of us. The only way His specific plan can work is if we are believers in Him and follow the path He has set for us.
- 250250. Crutches: It's Not An AnalogyChristianity is not just a crutch for those who can't make it on their own. Living with God is freeing, not confining and to say that having God in your life is just a crutch to get by, well, that's simply not true.
- 251251. Crutches: Abundantly Full New LifeWelcome to day 2 of our Crutches series. Yesterday we explained how the myth of Christianity being a crutch for us is simply untrue. Following that, we're talking about how a life with Christ is an abundantly full new life, and to say that our faith is simply a crutch, well that couldn't be farther from the truth.
- 252252. Crutches: Walking With A LimpWe're continuing our Crutches series today, bringing a message about God being our crutch so that we may strengthen and grow in Him. Sometimes we must be broken so that we may come back stronger through Christ.
- 253253. Crutches: We All LimpOur Crutches series is beginning to come to an end, and before we finish everything tomorrow, our message today is a reminder that everyone has a limp. It's not just a modern Christian concept, but it's something that all of us must go through in our life.
- 254254. Crutches: Rejoice In Your LimitationsWe wrap up our Crutches series today (with a cast if you will...) and we're leaving on a word of self-confidence and pride! We must rejoice in our limitations, not in our achievements. What God has begun in us, He will complete.
- 255255. Masks: Behind Your MaskMasks have become a normal addition to living in recent history, and we all hate it. However, we seem to have forgotten about the emotional and spiritual masks we put on every single day, even before the pandemic. Today we kick off our Masks series, and each day we'll discuss the masks we wear and what the potential harms can be if we don't remove them from time to time in order to show others who we really are.
- 256256. Masks: God's DesignIn order for us to experience community and intimacy, we cannot wear masks. God designed us in His perfect image, and to mask that would not be what He wanted for us. Being transparent is the only way we can experience honest relationships.
- 257257. Masks: Covered By JesusDifferent masks have all kinds of uses, such as protection, visibility in difficult places, even allowing you to go places you normally wouldn't be able to safely. God can be all of those and more. He can be our mask that gets us through anything the world and the devil throw our way.
- 258258. Masks: Playing GodAs we near the end of our Masks series, we talk about wearing the "God Mask" -- we need to let go of what we can't handle alone and offer Him a clean slate to mold our lives with.
- 259259. Masks: UnmaskedWe Unmask the final day of our Masks series. We talk about how in the last 18 months, regardless of opinion, masks affected us in the way that our truest form of identity was altered. The disconnect from other people was a lot at times, and it created a sense of uncertainty. God's identity is never hidden, His mask is always off.
- 260260. Scary Truth: The Truth Shall Set You FreeThe spooky season is among us, and as the scariest night of the year approaches, we're going over the Scary Truth in the next few days. The only REAL truth is God and when we believe that our truth is greater than His, that's where things get scary.
- 261261. Scary Truth: God's Truth is Greater than My TruthIt's time we eliminate the words "my truth" from our vocabulary and accept the only truth that is faithful -- God's truth. As Christians we must be consumed by Him and His truth and not our own.
- 262262. Scary Truth: Scary HoursWe have our resident Sales Coach, Josh Fontaine, filling in for Dave & Diana this morning! He's prepared a message that fits in with our Scary Truth series, so show some love in the comments!
- 263263. Scary Truth: The Dangers of Individual TruthWe've been talking about personal truths and how God is the only REAL truth that we can rely on. These individual truths that we create for ourselves can cause difficulties if we put them before His truth.
- 264264. Scary Truth: Cultivating Loyalty & Love for God's TruthThis week we went over the ins and outs of Scary Truth -- the idea being that the only one and true truth is God's truth. So now that we understand that, how do we solely accept God's truth when the world we live in is so focused on other truths?
