  • The Perfect Thump
    Oct 23 2024

    In this thought-provoking episode, we explore the relationship between uncertainty and confusion, and how our human tendency to worry can lead to anxiety. Drawing wisdom from Matthew and the Psalms, we are reminded of the importance of seeking the kingdom of God above all else, trusting that He knows our needs.

    The episode delves into the struggles of feeling abandoned or unheard, as expressed by David in Psalm 13, and emphasizes the value of returning to God with our concerns. Through heartfelt reflections, we learn that it's okay to struggle and cry out in anguish, as long as we continue to trust in God's unfailing love and His promise to deliver us.

    Listeners are encouraged to fix their thoughts on the Lord, who is our eternal rock, and find peace in His steadfast presence, even amidst life's uncertainties.

  • Empty Nets
    Oct 2 2024

    Join us in this thought-provoking episode as we delve into the timeless story of Peter and Andrew, fishermen by trade, whose lives were transformed by a simple yet profound encounter with Jesus. We reflect on the imagery of empty nets and the deeper meaning they hold.

    We recount the moment when Jesus stepped into their boat, asking them to cast their nets once more . Their obedience led to a miraculous catch, symbolizing the shift from their old ways to a new purpose—fishing for the hearts of men. Through this narrative, we explore the themes of faith, trust, and divine direction.

    Discover how our own efforts, no matter how diligent, are ultimately guided by the Lord's hand. Learn to seek His guidance and trust in His timing, allowing Him to lead us to abundant blessings. This episode encourages us to cast aside our old nets and embrace the new ones, filled to overflowing by His grace. Amen.

  • A Crumb is Enough
    Aug 6 2024

    Speaking with a new Christian, he was so moved by communion, he said, "I didn't just want a piece of bread, I wanted the entire loaf." We all hunger for love, for success, for perfection. I hunger for forgiveness.

    I hunger for a day when I won't need forgiveness.

    On more than one occasion, I have asked for the entire loaf. Big miracles from a really big God, deserving none of it.

    A Canaanite woman begged Jesus to heal her daughter. He answered. "Woman, you have great faith. Your request is granted." and her daughter was healed in that moment. Matthew chapter 15. To this woman, who was considered undesirable, a crumb was more than enough. When miracles do not arrive in the size and shape of my liking, I am discouraged and fail to be thankful for the crumb of blessing the Lord placed in my hand. A fever broken, pain subsiding, a peaceful night's sleep.

    I will continue to be persistent in prayer, asking for the entire loaf, but knowing a crumb is more than enough. Thank you, Lord.
