    Lessons from Gideon Part 1

    On this week's episode, Crystal digs deeper into the lesson she presented at the Quiet Resting Places ladies meeting last week. In this first part of the study on Gideon from Judges 6, you will be encouraged to know that God knows you in a very personal way! When God looks at us, He sees our potential when we surrender our lives to Him. He doesn’t see our brokenness. Our flaws. Our shortcomings. He sees who He created us to be.  The NEW Book, Today's Thoughts... is available now!

    Doubt and Assurance of Salvation

    In this week's episode, Crystal sits down with her son, Chaz, to discuss some common causes for doubting your salvation and the encouragement we can find in how Jesus dealt with those who doubted. Chaz, now an associate pastor serving in Seattle, Washington, spent many years struggling with doubt and has much encouragement to share on what finally helped him get victory in this area of his life.  Even if you've never doubted your salvation, you probably know someone who has--or is currently--so give this a listen and share it with others.  The NEW Book, Today's Thoughts... is available now!

    II Thessalonians 1: Waiting, Watching, Working

    In this episode, Crystal moves into studying II Thessalonians. They were facing such persecutions and tribulations, they were misled to believe they were living in the midst of The Great Tribulation. Paul wrote to reassure them and to encourage them. Once again, he commends them because their, "...faith groweth exceedingly, and the charity of every one of you all toward each other aboundeth;" (II Thessalonians 1:3) and admired their "...patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations" (vs. 4).

    I Thessalonians 5: While You Wait...

    In today's episode, Crystal continues through I Thessalonians chapter five. Remember we are getting instruction on how to live while we wait for Christ’s return, growing in HOLINESS.  This section (vs. 16-28) gives us some short and direct commands to help us live pleasing to the LORD. Rejoice evermore.Pray without ceasing.In every thing give thanks...Quench not the Spirit.Despise not prophesyings.Prove all things;Hold fast that which is good.Abstain from all appearance of evil.Rest assured. We can't do it by ourselves. It is only by God's grace and He is faithful to do it (vs. 23-24). We just need to surrender to the process. We need to stay sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit and be obedient when He reveals things in our lives. That is how we will be able to stand blameless at the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ! We will continue our study with II Thessalonians chapter one next week!
