    What Happens When We Don’t Let God Reset Us? (Nehemiah 8) | The Well Podcast S10E03

    How do we let God reset the dislocated parts of our lives — and what happens when we don't? In this episode of The Well Podcast, Pastor Chad Glover and host Les Norman dive into Nehemiah 8 to explore internal dislocation and the joy of restoration. Pastor Chad shares how preaching and biblical community work together to reveal and heal our "dislocations," and why responding to Scripture with awe and obedience matters more than surface-level application. This episode challenges believers to recognize the dislocated places in their own lives and lean into Scripture and biblical community for healing.   📌 Episode Mentions: Discipleship at Abundant Life: https://abundant-life.com/get-involved/whats-next/next-steps/discipleship-groups/ What Does the Bible Say About Discipleship? https://abundant-life.com/blog/what-does-the-bible-say-about-discipleship/ 📌 Supplemental Resources: This Week’s Sermon: https://youtube.com/live/BkHnLbNtIRQ Reset: The Power of Prayer & Fasting Sermon Series: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLR50sV854C2iwadl3_KW9vmqDaBJmPCW8   Connect with us on Social Media ↴ Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/abundantlifels/  Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/abundantlifels  Learn more about the A-Life Discipleship Journey: https://alife.livingproof.co/ More information on our sermons: https://abundant-life.com/resources/sermons/ Do you want to see your life changed by Jesus?

    Does Prayer Actually Change Anything? | The Well Podcast S10E02

    If God is sovereign and already in control of everything, why bother to pray? In this episode of The Well Podcast, Pastor Phil Hopper and host Les Norman explore the difference between God's foreknowledge and predestination, using the examples of Hezekiah and Nehemiah to show why prayer remains powerful and necessary. You'll see how personal decisions can genuinely change outcomes, and how revival begins with personal repentance rather than blaming outside circumstances. This episode will challenge you to align your heart with God's plan and pursue a deeper prayer life.
