EP 81: Elisabeth Elliot on Hints for a Quiet Time

by Marci Ferrell
Bible Study Christian Living Podcast Prayer Spiritual Discipleship Time Management

Having a quiet time with the Lord every day is absolutely essential if you expect to grow spiritually. But you have to plan it. It won't "just happen." @mferrell

  As Christians, we all desire to grow more and more into the image of Jesus. We want to "keep killing sin", we want to "love others as we love ourselves" and mostly we want to know and love Jesus more because all those other good things will follow if that is our first pursuit.

You can read part of the episode below (5 ... continue reading...

Journaling Tips from Elisabeth Elliot

by Marci Ferrell
Christian Living Prayer Spiritual Discipleship Spiritual Disciplines Series

  Journaling is often viewed as just a way to remember or keep track of life's events. Many people who aren't Christians keep a journal. As a Christian, I've been thankful to keep spiritual journals (consistently at times and inconsistently at times) because it has helped me see God's grace and mercy at work in my life over the years of walking with Him. My journaling time helps me to discern my motives and bring about sin that I need to confess to the Lord and turn from. My ... continue reading...
