In this episode, I share my word of the year as well as what we are going to be doing for 2023! So excited for what God will do on 2023! We will be looking at Psalm 121 - “I look up to the mountains— does my help come from there? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth! He will not let you stumble; the one who watches over you will not slumber. Indeed, he who watches over Israel never slumbers or sleeps. The Lord himself watches over you! The Lord stands beside you as your protective shade. The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon at night. The Lord keeps you from all harm and watches over your life. The Lord keeps watch over you as you come and go, both now and forever.” - Psalms‬ ‭121‬:‭1‬-‭8‬ ‭NLT‬‬

A special episode where we will be having a conversation as we read the Christmas Story found in Luke 2. “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame.” For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, for, Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” - Romans‬ ‭10‬:‭9‬-‭13‬ ‭NIV‬‬

This is a very interesting question. And there’s a great story in the Bible to illustrate at all. Join me as we journey through this question together.

I have pondered the question that the Psalmist writes in Psalm 116:12 for years. I have always came to the same conclusion on the answer - until recently…. In this episode, I share what I believe is the answer to the question.

How do you have a healthy heart? No, I’m not talking about eating your Cheerios. In this episode, we are goin to turn to Proverbs 4 for a little bit of help with the answer to that question.

In this episode, we are going to be looking at a story in Luke 24. In the story there is hope and because of what was hoped, there is disappointment too. Google dictionary defines “Disappoint” as failure to fulfill the hopes or expectations of someone. Let’s see how all of this shows up in our Bible passage today.

Notebooks and Journals will be a collection of episodes of random thoughts and things that I have learned from God. The series will look at some of the things that I wrote down in my notebooks and journals almost 6 years ago. God has reminded me of a lot of things just looking back through those notebooks and journals. I can’t wait to share them with you through this series. However, the first episode we will look at the question “did Jesus ever worry?” Let’s dive into this together!

In this final episode of “Touched”, we are looking how the touch of Jesus truly changes lives - then, now, and forever.
