How to Know God’s Will (230322)

When we are faced with a decision, do we seek God’s direction? Do we want to be in his will?  And if so, how will we know if we are? Today we will seek to understand how, when we are faced with options that do not seem to be black and white, can we determine what God’s will is.

How to Know / Discern God’s Will (230315)

In the Lord’s Prayer we ask, “Your will be done.” But how would we know if what we hear is indeed God’s will – or our own?  Or worse, Satan deceiving us? Can we know and discern God’s will?  Does he still communicate to us individually about such matters? Yes and Yes!  Stay tuned to find out!

Is Everything that Happens the “Will of God?”

As we look around our world and see the poverty, the wars, the disease and crime, we have to wonder, “Is this the will of God?”  If it is, he is either not a good God, or he is not and all-powerful God?  But is there a better explanation?  Yes!  
Tune it to find out.

Your Will be Done – Not Mine! (Episode 230222)

When we pray for God’s will to be done, do we have any idea that for which we are asking?  Do you actually want to give up your free will, or do you still prefer your will, your way?  Perhaps you’d like some balance of your will and his will.  But what if you could see that his will is always “good, pleasing and perfect?” (Romans 12:1-2). Tune in to find out

“Your kingdom come” – Within Me & Around Me (Episode 230215)

 
Today we take look at the symbiotic relationship between “Our Father in the heavens” and “Your kingdom come.” Our Father is in the heavens, which means he is all around us – we live in a God-saturated world. So why do we need to pray, “Your kingdom come,” if he is already all around us? Tune in to find out!

Your Kingdom Come – My Kingdom Go! (Episode 230201)

When Jesus says, “Your Kingdom come,” he is saying a mouthful!  Can the Father’s Kingdom come when I am on my throne – the king (or queen) of my castle?  Perhaps this is why Jesus said,
“No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money … or Self.”  Matthew 6:24.

The Disciples’ Prayer

Today we begin a journey into a better understanding of the prayer Jesus gave to his disciples, and by extension, to us. We call this, The Lord’s Prayer. It is more accurate to say, The Disciple’s Prayer. Jesus gave this to them and to us to use as a model to follow.

New Book Now Available: Deep Calling Deep (by Sam Hunter)

In Deep Calling Deep, the beloved Apostle John will be our guide, as well as our eyes and ears, as we watch the encounters Jesus has with these and others throughout John’s Gospel.
I can only imagine the myriad experiences we would observe – the miracles – the healings – the parables and the teachings - the confrontations with the Jewish authorities.But what intrigues me is the idea of watching Jesus interact with the various people he encountered along the way.What can we learn by watching Jesus respond to his mother, when she asks him for help, and he changes the water into wine?What is Jesus saying to Nicodemus, “the up and in,” about being born again and the Spirit?And with the “the down and out” Samaritan Woman at the Well, Jesus shows us how to effectively reach those who have been wounded by religion and relationships. Why does Jesus ask the man who has been lame for 38 years, “Do you want to get well?” - Wouldn’t he of course want to???Join Sam Hunter as he takes us through the Gospel of John in the same unique travel narrative style as his previous book, The Missing Link, which followed the Apostle Peter through the Book of Acts.You will laugh, you will learn, and you will love watching the Master as his deep Spirit energy weaves a Spirit synergy deep into the souls of these men and women: Deep Calling Deep.

Spiritual Inventory Part 2

Would it be helpful to take a measure of where you are in your spiritual journey?  You may think you are doing well as a Christian, but perhaps you are fooling yourself.  Today we complete our Spiritual Inventory.
The full inventory is below, should you be brave enough to take it. Or perhaps I should say, “If you are serious about going deeper into the Kingdom.”
Tune in!

Spiritual Inventory (Episode 230111)

Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. 24 See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. (Psalm 139:23-24). I contemplate this passage often, and often think to myself, “What kind of idiot would proactively ask God to inspect him or herself like this?” But I have learned that this inspection will assist me in my introspection. Something I need, often. Do you? Today we talk about our Spiritual Inventory to review at the beginning of the year. Are you brave enough to take it? Or perhaps I should say, “Are you serious about going deeper into the Kingdom?”
