Rhythms for Life

We are so grateful to have Lisa Whittle  on today's episode! Lisa reminds us that in a world where noise and distractions are pulling at us from every direction, it is much easier to make decisions when the right priority order is set in motion. Jesus is covering us, holding us, and sheltering us from being overcome by the world like a protective awning. We must simply put Him first.Lisa has dedicated her life to writing and speaking about the truth of Jesus Christ and how wanting Him the most changes everything.

We are so excited to launch a new series, where each week we will process one new rhythm together! Although these current, unprecedented times can ignite fear, Gabe and I are eager to walk alongside you as we navigate the unknown together. There is no better time than now to begin taking inventory. As we pause and begin to examine the different areas of our lives, our eyes may be opened to what is right, what is wrong, what is confused, and what is missing. If we do our inventories right, it will be a holy process. When we rest long enough to take inventory, we'll find new horizons opening up, horizons beyond all we could ask or imagine. Each of these weekly rhythms can be found in Rebekah's newest book, Rhythms of Renewal.

What does it look like to be faithful and follow Jesus in our changing culture? Addison Bevere joined us on the podcast this week for a refreshing and enlightening conversation about the word Christian, and how it came to be the most popular identifier for followers of Jesus today, despite being mentioned in the Bible a mere three times. Addison's new book, Saints, expands on this conversation, inviting followers of Jesus into a different identifier - one that invites us to discover who God created us to be and awaken us to the life we were meant to know. To purchase Addison's book, click HERE. To learn more about Addison, click HERE. To join the Rhythms for Life online Bible Study, click HERE.To purchase Rhythms of Renewal, click HERE.
