Norm Marcum gives us some advice on what should we do after we are saved?  You are not just saved to sit.  Listen for the details!

Our last episode was about our purpose.  This one is how to get started in fulfilling that purpose.  Are you ready?  Let's do this!

What is your purpose?  Have you thought about why you are here on earth?  What are you supposed to be doing?  What gives your life the most meaning?  Please listen and consider a few things that I would like to share with you.

Mary gives us some wonderful insight into Bible study.  Bible study should be paired with prayer.  Ask God to help you understand what you are reading.  Mary uses journals to write down verses she reads and what God reveals to her about the scripture.  She says it is important to date your entries so you can go back and see what God was doing and preparing you for.  Four ideas to think about when reading that are helpful are:
1.  Think about who is speaking.

2.  Think about to whom they are speaking to.

3.  Think about what the message meant in that time.

4.  Think about what the message means today.



David Guzik has a wonderful resource that he offers for free.  It is called Enduring Word.  You can find it online and it has notes about the Bible and many sermon notes, etc.  

Tony Evans also is a wonderful person to listen to.  Check him out online as well.

Josh Hall gives us some very important tips on starting your Bible study.  First he states that we should pray and ask God to help us understand the Bible before we read. He also says that reading the gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John are good places to start so you can learn about Jesus.  He also says that a good Bible dictionary is also helpful.  He refers to Hebrews 11:6 which says, 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.  

God will bless you if you seek Him.  He loves you!  

Finally, Josh blesses us with some music from some of his girls!  Like I said in the podcast episode, this is my favorite episode so far!

Dr. CB Scott explains to us today about the abundant life we have in Christ.  This is part one of a three part recording on the Assurance of Salvation.  It is a blessing to know that we have this assurance!  Here are some scriptures from our talk today!  Read them all.  Listen to the message.

We don't have to hang on.  Jesus hangs on to us if we are saved.

Salvation is either all God or all man.  

Salvation is either eternal or temporary.

We are saved and kept by grace or by our good works. - Read what the Bible says about our "good works."  Isaiah 64:6
