Podcast EP 59: Evangelism (Spiritual Disciplines Series)

Christian Living Evangelism Podcast Spiritual Disciplines Series

Evangelism is clearly presenting Jesus Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit to sinful people with the hope that they may see their sinfulness against a holy God and repent and put their faith and trust in Christ alone for salvation. @mferrell

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. One of the reasons as a Christian, that I've been thankful to keep spiritual journals (consistently at times and inconsistently at times) is that it has helped me to 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 ... continue reading...

My journaling time has reminded me of situations or people I need to be in prayer for.Journaling is an excellent time for me to see areas of weakness and set spiritual goals and not always just spiritual but other areas of ... continue reading...

Bible Study Christian Living Encouragement Podcast Prayer Praying for Our Children Praying for Our Husbands Spiritual Discipleship Spiritual Disciplines Series Theology Titus 2

Prayer reminds us we are dependent on God for every aspect of our lives and we grow in that relationship by communing with Him in prayer. @mferrell

Prayer is simply talking to God. As believers, we have access to God the Father through our relationship with Jesus Christ. Prayer reminds us we are dependent on God for every aspect of our lives and we grow in that relationship by communing with Him in prayer. Donald Whitney reminds us in regards to the spiritual disciplines that prayer is second only to Bible intake in the order of importance.Prayer is not demanding but we are coming before the Lord with open hands to what He knows is ... continue reading...

Instagram post 2190797549825329454_40367759 Christmas shopping can get a bit overwhelming and I wanted to help you (and myself) to make it a bit less complicated. I love to find gifts for family and friends that point to Jesus. ⁣

This will not be your typical Christmas gift guide but one I hope will help you and your gift receivers keep their eyes focused on the eternal. My hope also is to simplify your shopping time with many items being purchased from smaller businesses right online.⁣

1 Peter 1:10-12 gives a picture of what it means to look back during Advent:⁣

1 Peter1:12 stands out because it says these saints of the past were serving us. We are on the other side now of Christ’s birth – the waiting for his arrival is over but the reality is we are still waiting for His second coming. We are still waiting for redemption. Advent can be looked at as a season to look back and one to look forward—preparing for Jesus second coming.⁣

Jesus does not aspire to be God.
Jesus is God. .

Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth!⁣
Serve the Lord with gladness!⁣

Enter his gates with thanksgiving,and his courts with praise!⁣
Give thanks to him; bless his name!⁣
For the Lord is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations.⁣
