    286 - The Matthew 25 Song

    Matthew 25:40  “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’ In the last episode, "285 - Devoted to One (The Little Boat)," I shared a story about a young traveler I met while in Tel Aviv. He heard me play a song and became quite emotional at his table. When I spoke with him, I shared the Bible verses that had inspired the song. My friend Suzy sent me a text saying she was hoping to hear the song the young man had asked about. So, just in case last week’s episode left you curious, I’ll play it here and share a little more about its meaning as you listen. The song is called “Broadway” — The Matthew 25 Song.

    285 - Devoted to One (The Little Boat)

    Colossians 4:2Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. I have notes in my Bible and a movie in my mind that plays when I read this verse. Especially the little word devote. In this episode, I’ll tell you all about it. It has to do with a short trip to Israel via Moscow, a little boat, and how I learned that my first devotion is to Jesus, not to pleasing others. In the end, I hope you’ll be encouraged in who and how God made you, and that you’ll be free to serve Him in the ways He leads you. I will read from: Colossians 4:2–6Mark 3:9–10Matthew 5:14–16 If you would like to support this podcast with a monthly or one-time gift, thank you! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.sherriyoungward.com/support⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ To find out about upcoming gatherings and new projects, please join my email list at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.sherriyoungward.com

    284 - The Heart of Worship (Encore)

    This week, we are revisiting a favorite episode. We hope you enjoy going back with us. Proverbs 13:12 Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but when dreams come true, there is life and joy. When I was gathering songs to lead worship for my church, I saw the title, "The Heart of Worship." I had never played this song, so I found a key that worked, sat down, and sang it. Something happened inside. All my wandering and wondering thoughts came together in one place as I sang the words, "It’s all about You, It’s all about You, Jesus."  My hope was reset to where it belongs. I will read to you from: Hebrews 4:14-16 Luke 10:38-42 Matthew 22:36-40 I will sing, "The Heart of Worship" by Matt Redman.

    283 - New Strength

    Ephesians 3:16I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will give you mighty inner strength through his Holy Spirit. Could you use some mighty inner strength? This strength that Paul prayed for comes only through God’s unlimited resources, through His Holy Spirit. This is good news, especially if (like me) you answered yes to the question above.  In this episode, we’ll look at Paul’s prayer and why praying for inner strength was so important to him. I’ll also follow Paul’s example and pray for you, and then end the episode with the song, “Peace.” I’ll read from: Ephesians 3:14–192 Corinthians 4:16–18 If you would like to support this podcast with a monthly or one-time gift, thank you! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.sherriyoungward.com/support⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ To find out about upcoming gatherings and new projects, please join my email list at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.sherriyoungward.com

    282 - Both at Once (Music Box)

    Psalm 66:5–6 Come and see what our God has done,what awesome miracles he does for his people!He made a dry path through the Red Sea,and his people went across on foot.Come, let us rejoice in who he is. When I look back on some of the hardest times of my life, what I remember more than anything is how God drew me near to Himself through it all. This week, I’ll expand on last week’s episode, "Empty and Full." I’ll share the comfort and help I continue to find in knowing that my cup can be empty and full—both at once. I’ll also share how a music box lullaby (which I try to replicate) helped me remember the goodness of God while lying under a thin hospital blanket. I’ll close with the song, "Oxygen," and read to you from: Psalm 66:1–9Psalm 65:4Psalm 23:5 If you would like to support this podcast with a monthly or one-time gift, thank you! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.sherriyoungward.com/support⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ To find out about upcoming gatherings and new projects, please join my email list at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.sherriyoungward.com

    281 - Empty and Full

    Psalm 65:4 How blessed is the one whom You choose and bring near to YouTo dwell in Your courts.We will be satisfied with the goodness of Your house,Your holy temple. In this episode, I’ll share some of the ways the Lord has brought me near after a time of sickness and ER visits. I’ll also explain the intricate process that goes into choosing “encore” episodes. Spoiler alert: it has nothing to do with me, though I sometimes get the credit.  I’ll also tell you why I now have a new answer to the question: Am I a “cup half empty” or “cup half full” kind of person? (I learned a lot from David.)

    280 - Where Are Those Mountains Now? (Encore)

    This week, we are revisiting a favorite episode. We hope you enjoy going back with us. Psalm 36:5 Your lovingkindness, O LORD, extends to the heavens, Your faithfulness reaches to the skies. When a songwriter wants to express something huge and meaningful, they think of the biggest things they can… mountains, galaxies, the ocean. In this episode, we will look at God’s faithfulness. If you can see the sky, you have a glimpse at the size of it. Along with the verses below, I will read part of the backstory to the hymn, "Great is Thy Faithfulness." I will read to you from: Psalm 33:4 1 Corinthians 1:9 1 Corinthians 10:13 1 Thessalonians 5:24 2 Thessalonians 3:3 2 Timothy 2:13 Hebrews 10:23 Psalm 36:5-9 Lamentations 3:23-24 If you would like to support this podcast with a monthly or one-time gift, thank you! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.sherriyoungward.com/support⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ To find out about upcoming gatherings and new projects, please join my email list at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.sherriyoungward.com

    279 - Reorienting

    Psalm 62:8 (NKJV)Trust in Him at all times, you people;Pour out your heart before Him;God is a refuge for us. Selah What does it look like to follow Jesus when life keeps changing? I’ve been thinking about the importance of reorienting, turning back when we drift, course-correcting when our thoughts, words, or actions don’t align with Jesus, and learning to adjust as seasons of life change. Sometimes we can prepare for these course corrections. Other times, change catches us completely by surprise. I find comfort knowing that no matter what’s happening emotionally, physically, spiritually, or geographically, God knows exactly where we are. He is our Refuge. Our solid Rock. He does not change.
