    Saboteurs and the Wilderness: Rediscovering God’s Sacred Classroom

    In this powerful episode of the Daily Living for Christ Podcast, Donald E. Coleman explores the biblical and contemplative truth behind the wilderness in a new series titled: Beloved: The Journey of Leaving Egypt, Entering Wilderness, and Awakening as New Creation. He reveals why every believer must pass through this sacred terrain. Far from being punishment, the wilderness is God’s preferred place of formation—where saboteurs are exposed, false identities fall away, and the voice of God becomes unmistakably clear. You’ll discover how Jesus, Moses, David, Elijah, and the early Church were all shaped by wilderness seasons, and how your current season may be the very place God is preparing you to awaken as His Beloved. Join us as we reclaim the wilderness as holy ground and learn to recognize God’s transformative presence in the quiet, hidden, and uncertain places of life. Here are some resources to support you in the journey: The Beloved Prayer Overview of the Ten Saboteurs Take the free Saboteur Assessment "Have Questions, Send us a Message" This podcast is a production of The Center for Biblical Coaching and Leadership.

    Before Anything Else: You Are Beloved

    Many believers know that God loves them, yet few have learned to live from the deep truth of being Beloved. Our host, Donald E Coleman, begins a new series that he believes the Holy Spirit has placed before us with tenderness and purpose. This series is titled ' Beloved: Becoming Who You Already Are.  In this first episode, Donald invites you into a sacred reorientation of identity—one rooted not in performance, success, maturity, or spiritual progress, but in the eternal love of God expressed through Christ. Drawing from Matthew 3:17 and the insight of Henri Nouwen in Spiritual Direction, we explore how Jesus began His ministry only after hearing the Father speak: “You are my Beloved; with You I am well pleased.” Before Jesus did anything, He was named. Identity came before action. Belovedness came before calling.  This episode will help you: ·       Recognize where you may be trying to earn what God has already given ·       Understand the difference between the False Self and the True Self in Christ ·       See how Jesus lived every moment from the foundation of belovedness ·       Begin to rest, breathe, and live from your identity as God’s beloved son or daughter This is not simply a teaching—it is an invitation into metanoia, a transformation of how you see God, how you see yourself, and how you live your daily life. If you’ve ever felt pressure to prove yourself, to be enough, or to earn God’s approval—this episode is your reminder of the love that has always been yours. Come and hear the voice that has been speaking over you since the beginning: “You are My Beloved.” "Have Questions, Send us a Message" This podcast is a production of The Center for Biblical Coaching and Leadership.

    Before the Throne (Series Finale)

    The journey inward was never meant to end in hiding—it was preparation for standing in the presence of God. You've turned. You've entered the room. You've been renewed. Now comes the breathtaking conclusion: Before the Throne—where sacred surrender transforms into sacred confidence. In this powerful series finale, host Donald E. Coleman reveals the divine mystery woven through Hebrews 4 and Hebrews 10: God showed us the destination first (access to the Most Holy Place), then walked us back through the pathway that gets us there. This isn't just about finding rest—it's about discovering bold, grace-based access to the throne of God. Drawing from Hebrews 4:12-16, Donald unpacks how the Living Word that pierces us is the same High Priest who welcomes us. The secret place that exposed your heart becomes the launching point for a life lived in divine presence. In this episode, you'll discover: How the Living Word has been present in every phase of your journey (The Turn, The Room, The Renewal)Why God's Word pierces—not to condemn, but to heal and make you wholeThe difference between the Word that exposes and the High Priest who receivesHow Jesus modeled the complete pathway: from desert to withdrawal to presentation to intercessionThe stunning connection between Hebrews 4 and Hebrews 10—and why the Spirit revealed them in reverse orderWhat it means to approach the throne of grace with confidence, not because of who you are but because of who Jesus isWhy the secret place prepares you for boldness, not just intimacyThis episode is for you if: You've done the inner work, but wonder what comes nextYou struggle to believe you have real access to God's presenceYou feel stuck between hiding in shame and striving for approvalYou want to understand what "drawing near with confidence" actually meansYou're ready to live not from effort but from grace-based access to the throneThe Complete Journey:The Turn (Matthew 4:17) — You reoriented your soul through metanoiaThe Room (Matthew 6:6) — You entered hidden communion with the FatherThe Renewal (Romans 12:1-2) — You were transformed by surrendered presenceThe Throne (Hebrews 4:12-16) — You stand boldly before the throne of graceThis is where letting go leads you: not to emptiness, but to fullness. Not to withdraw, but to welcome. Not to silence, but to standing in the presence of the One who sees you, knows you, and invites you to come boldly. The pathway of sacred surrender ends where it always should: before the throne of grace, held by the High Priest who understands your weakness and meets you with mercy."Have Questions, Send us a Message" This podcast is a production of The Center for Biblical Coaching and Leadership.

    The Pathway to Surrender: The Renewal

    What happens when you stay in the secret place long enough to be changed? You've made the turn. You've entered the room. Now comes the most profound part of the journey: The Renewal—the transformation that happens not through striving, but through remaining. In this episode, host Donald E. Coleman explores Romans 12:1-2 and the passive miracle of metamorphosis. When Paul writes "be transformed by the renewing of your mind," he's revealing a sacred truth: transformation isn't something you manufacture. It's what God does when you present yourself as a living sacrifice in the secret place. This episode unpacks the fruit of sacred surrender—how the Father who sees in secret rewards you not with achievement, but with renewal, alignment, and the ability to discern His will. In this episode, you'll discover: What it means to be a "living sacrifice"—not a one-time decision but a continual posture of availabilityThe difference between metanoia (the turn) and metamorphosis (the transformation that follows)Why transformation is passive—God does the renewing work when you cease from your ownHow the patterns of the world shape us unconsciously, and what it means to be non-conformingThe connection between Hebrews 4:10's rest and Romans 12:2's renewalWhy you can only discern God's will when your mind is no longer operating by worldly patternsHow God's Word pierces through false narratives to reveal and heal your true identityThis episode is for you if:You've been in the secret place, but wonder when you'll actually see changeYou're tired of trying to transform yourself through willpower and disciplineYou struggle to discern God's will in the noise of competing voicesYou want to understand what it means to be "renewed" versus just informedYou're ready to move from performance-based religion to presence-based transformationSeries Progress: In The Turn, you responded to Jesus' call to metanoia—the reorientation of your soul. In The Room, you entered hidden communion with the Father. Now in The Renewal, you'll discover what happens when you stay: God does what you could never do for yourself. Transformation is not your job—it's your reward. This is what happens when you remain in sacred surrender."Have Questions, Send us a Message" This podcast is a production of The Center for Biblical Coaching and Leadership.

    The Pathway to Surrender: The Room

    Where do you go when you need to truly meet with God? In Matthew 6:6, Jesus invites us into "the room"—a sacred, hidden place where authentic communion happens away from noise, performance, and spiritual exhaustion. But this isn't just about finding a quiet space. It's about discovering an inner sanctuary where you can release distractions and encounter the Father who sees in secret. In this episode, host Donald E. Coleman explores the ancient practice of entering the secret place, unpacking what Jesus meant by "close the door" and why this hidden rhythm is essential for spiritual vitality. In this episode, you'll discover: The deeper meaning of tameion (the Greek word for "room") and its significance as an inner chamber of the soulWhy "closing the door" means more than physical solitude—it's releasing noise, expectations, and the need to performThe critical difference between transactional prayer and transformational presence with GodWhat Jesus modeled in Luke 5:16 by regularly withdrawing to lonely placesThe surprising reward that comes not from productivity but from dwelling with the FatherHow to create your own sacred rhythm of hiddenness and make it an intentional daily practiceThis episode is for you if: You're exhausted by physical or spiritual striving and ready to discover restYou want to move beyond surface-level prayer into deeper intimacy with GodYou struggle with constant distraction and need help finding stillnessYou're curious about contemplative prayer but don't know where to beginYou sense God calling you to a hidden place, but you aren't sure what that looks likeThe room isn't about results—it's about relationship. This is your invitation to shut out the noise and discover the peace that comes from being seen by the Father in secret.
