We're Going There with Bianca Juarez

Hey Family! Let’s talk about creativity! Whether you want to write a book, paint a mural, launch a business or even create a math algorithm, that is all centered around the creative process. On today’s episode, I’m talking with award-winning singer and songwriter, Jeremy Camp. I learned about four main stages to developing an idea. They are: preparation, incubation, illumination and lastly, verification. While things may not always work out in this exact linear order, you can use this as a roadmap for your creative journey. It offers a direction if not a destination. The most important thing to remember is that everyone’s creative process looks slightly different. Mine looks more like a zig-zag or a spiral than a straight line. Throughout our conversation, you’ll hear about Jeremy’s creative process and how he tends to break a lot of the creative rules. I would love to hear about your art and creativity. Will you do me a favor? Send me a visual clue that you are participating in this creative process. Take a picture of your art, song lyrics, poem or business plan and tag us @BiancaOlthoff and @JeremyCampOfficial. And, if you love the creativity that comes through the art of podcasting, don’t forget to leave a positive review for this show so that we can reach more ears around the world.

Hello Friends! Something we often think about at the top of the year is transformation. This is the process of changing our lives around for the better. In today’s episode, I’ll be chatting with author, teacher, and preacher John Mark Comer about something that is crucial for the development of our souls, hearts, and minds: spiritual transformation. This is achieved through disciplines that align us to God so that we can do his will and work for our lives. Biblically speaking, some of the ways to practice and grow in your faith include reading Scripture, prayer, community, fasting, confession, submission, worship, and celebration. This topic of conversation is a bit like quinoa… Perhaps you’ve never tried the tasty, protein-packed superfood. But once you try quinoa (or spiritual disciplines), you’ll see that it’s good for your soul. Trust me. Spiritual transformation cannot be accomplished by our own efforts. However, we do participate in the process by partnering with God. While these aren’t a quick fix for your spirituality, if you create intentional habits and practices, you will find yourself closer to God and more spiritually empowered. If you eat quinoa this week, snap a photo and tag me @BiancaOlthoff so I can celebrate how quinoa is transforming our bodies and how @JohnMarkComer is transforming our minds.

No matter how far away you feel from God today, there's a pathway back to him. Here are three things we can do to get back to God: 1) realize we need to change, 2) own up to our sin, and 3) give up control. True transformation happens when our hearts move from self-centeredness to God-centeredness. When you seek God seriously, you will not be disappointed. Love you, friends!

I have this reminder to give to you, God made you to be you. Let Him determine your identity. The Bible says, our purpose is to please God not people. He alone examines the motives of our hearts. Fulfill the plan that God has for your life, not somebody else’s. That is real success. 🖤 B Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Hi friends! As we reach the end of 2021, many of us have had to face something that we didn’t plan for. Things have gone a little bit different than you might have thought, and you've had, what I call, a change of plans. Facing things that we didn't plan for can be jarring and can even rattle our faith. Sometimes we wonder why things aren’t going as planned and even wonder where God is. When we don’t know what is going on, we must hold on to what we know to be true: Though your plan may have changed, your purpose hasn’t. God has a purpose for you. The reason Jesus came to earth was for you. I want you to plant this truth in your heart.  Let me know how your plans have changed and where you see God show up in this season. You can tag me @BiancaOlthoff on your posts and also share this podcast with your friends and family. If this show is something you like, leave a rating and review so it can get into more ears around the world.

We are the salt of the earth. This declares who we are and what our purpose is. We are called to add Christ flavor to whatever environment we are placed in. We are to preserve a Christ like culture in a morally decaying world. And we can cause others to thirst after the God that we have inside of us.  Stay salty my friends! 🖤 B Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
