A Warning Against Drifting
Why do people who once faithfully served the Lord, turn away from Jesus? In John 3, we learn that it’s an issue of the heart. People love the darkness because their hearts are evil, not because there is no light. In this episode, Brody walks through 6 dangers and temptations that lead to apostasy. Let’s be aware of what causes the drift and fight against it. Let’s fix our eyes on Jesus and pursue Him.

Growing In The Knowledge of God's Word
It’s not always easy to be faithful to the Lord. There are forces and things pushing against our desires for Him. We have to put in effort and fight the enemy attacking our minds. Today's episode is from our Respond Women's Conference, where Brooke Lovingood walks through Mark 4, and shares how it remind us to be aware of the soil of our souls. Let’s grow in our knowledge of God's word by letting it be planted in rich deep soil. Let's be so aware that when a thought enters your mind that goes against God's word, you are able to say that it's not from Him. Resources:Mark 4Respond Women's ConferenceP.S.

A Conversation About Women in Ministry
Today Brody sits down with Brooke Lovingood, a former Snowbird staff member who now works in the youth ministry at FBC of Watkinsville. Brody and Brooke discussed what the Bible says about the roles of women in marriage and ministry. God has laid out certain roles for a man and a woman, and these roles that are equal but different. Christianity is the most dignifying religion when it comes to women. The world tells us that a woman’s role is contrary to what Scripture says, but Jesus gives women a platform to minister and to serve within His design. Let’s strive to be counter-cultural to the world and align our minds with the Bible.

Active Faith is Enduring Faith
Christians are not created for inactivity. We’re called to be a people of action, driven by faith.As Brody wraps up the life of Saul in 1 Samuel 14 with the Snowbird summer staff. The focus of the Old Testament turns to Saul’s son, Jonathan. Jonathan shows us what active faith looks like, while Saul showed us what inactive religion is. The testing of our faith will produce endurance. You’ve got to look a little bit crazy when you live by faith—it won’t make sense to the world. We are the remnant in a dark and dying generation. So let’s live out our faith and pursue the Lord well.Resources:1 Samuel 14P.S. If you liked this episode, we’d love to hear your feedback!

The Slide of Saul
Anxieties and struggles should teach us to depend on the Lord more, not turn away from Him. As Brody continues to look at Saul’s life with our Snowbird summer staff, he walks through 1 Samuel 13. This is when Saul begins his slide away from the Lord. Every drift starts somewhere, but it will stop at the moment of repentance. Sadly, Saul’s faith eventually weakens through his disobedience.Christians aren’t called to inactivity. Let’s labor in the work of the Lord, pursue personal holiness, and invest in other people.

The Rise of Saul
We can not hang our hope on earthly movements and figureheads. Believers, we need to fix our eyes on Jesus and labor for what won’t perish. In 1 Samuel 12, the Israelites asked for a king so they could be like the other nations. But, God gave them a kingship that answered to Him. If you walk in Christ, then you’re called to be different from the world.Today’s episode is a session from Snowbird’s summer staff training. Brody encouraged our summer staff to remain faithful to the Lord in the middle of our current culture. The Israelites wanted to trust in a new form of government, rather than trusting in the promises of Yahweh. Christian, you are under the covenant care and love of God. He is unchanging in His faithfulness to you, so walk with Jesus. Resources:1 Samuel 12 2 Timothy 2:13Romans 3:4Hebrews 10:231 John 1:9P.S. If you liked this episode, we’d love to hear your feedback!
