163 - Walking (Revisited)
This week, we are revisiting a favorite episode. We hope you enjoy going back with us.
Genesis 5:24a
Enoch walked with God
It’s a breathtaking thought that we can walk with God.
I am someone who loves to walk. In this episode, I will share some thoughts from my journal.
From walking slowly arm in arm with my mom to stepping inches away from a coiled, rattling rattlesnake.
I will also share some of my favorite walks in Scripture.
I will read to you from:
Matthew 4:18-22
Luke 24:13-32

162 - Alone With Jesus (Part 3)
John 17:26
I made known to them your name, and I will continue to make it known, that the love with which you have loved me may be in them, and I in them.”
This is the third and final episode in a series called "Alone With Jesus." The first week I read John 13 and 14, last week I read chapters 15 and 16, and today I will read chapter 17.
This is the longest and most complete prayer we have, and it couldn’t be more beautiful.
What could be more precious and powerful than the actual prayer of Jesus for us? And what could possibly be more in the center of God’s will?
May His prayer be answered in us.

161 - Alone With Jesus (Part 2)
John 15:12
My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.
This is part two of a series called “Alone With Jesus.”
Last week I read John 13 and 14 and this week I will read John 15 and 16, with a few thoughts here and there. Next week, we will end the series with John 17.
The longer I live, the more I see my ongoing need to have His Nature refreshed to my heart. I not only benefit personally, but I also better know how to love others as He loves me.
Pastor Joe Focht recommended you sit alone and read through these chapters — because Jesus was alone with His disciples when He spoke these things.

160 - Alone With Jesus (Part 1)
John 14:27
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
This is part one in a series called “Alone With Jesus.”
I will read John 13 and 14 with a few thoughts sprinkled in.
Then next week, I will continue until we cover chapters 13-17.
I heard it said that John chapters 13-17 are the private ministry between Jesus and His close disciples. Jesus had finished His public ministry and this was His private ministry between Himself and His disciples.
Pastor Joe Focht recommended sitting alone and reading through these chapters because Jesus was alone with His disciples when He said these things.
I didn’t mention it in the episode, but recently I read through all the chapters and I was deeply moved. I am hoping the same for you.
These episodes are a little longer than usual and I hope they might be a place you return for time alone with Jesus.

159 - Peace and Churros
Philippians 2:19-20
I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, so that I too may be cheered by news of you. For I have no one like him, who will be genuinely concerned for your welfare.
After a conversation with a friend, I saw this verse in a new light. My friend takes genuine care of those that no one else is concerned about. Just as Paul trusted Timothy’s heart for the Philippians, so God entrusts His heart to us.
Sometimes He gives us His genuine concern for a group of people, even a whole country, and sometimes it’s just for one.
I pray for us to be filled afresh with His genuine concern for those He has entrusted to us.

158 - Grapes and Grasshoppers (Revisited)
This week, we are revisiting a favorite episode. We hope you enjoy going back with us.
Numbers 13:30-31, 33b
But Caleb tried to encourage the people as they stood before Moses. "Let's go at once to take the land," he said. "We can certainly conquer it!"
But the other men who had explored the land with him answered, "We can't go up against them! They are stronger than we are!"
…We felt like grasshoppers next to them, and that's what we looked like to them!"
This episode is all about spies. Moses asked a handful of men to spy out the land they were waiting to possess. Two very different reports came back.
F.B. Meyer compared the perspective of the ten unbelieving spies to that of the two faithful spies, Caleb and Joshua: "They saw the same spectacles in their survey of the land; but the result in the one case was panic, in the other confidence and peace. What made the difference?"
You’ll have to listen to find out the rest of the quote and why grapes and grasshoppers made me consider a tattoo.
