For The Bible Tells Me So Calvary Monterey

Life isn’t so much about what God is getting you through, rather it’s about what God is working in you and out of you. Today we’ll look at some of the things God works out of our lives that demonstrate what He’s been working on inside of us.

Christians may be called to pursue unity through humility and service, but how far is too far? Is it possible to be too humble? Too sacrificial?

Have you ever wanted to leave your mark on this world? Many of us want to make a difference, but we oftentimes get discouraged because we feel like we can’t make a lasting impact unless we have a certain amount of Instagram followers, or a blue check next to our Twitter handle, or a large Youtube subscriber base. But is that true? Do we need all of that in order to see lives changed? In Philippians, the apostle Paul shows us that God can create lasting change in our communities through us as we intentionally work together and live for Him.

Today, Bekka Barron joins the podcast to help us understand the world of trafficking so that we can apply God’s kingdom values into seeing solutions and care for those who are impacted in our community.

Would you rather stay, or go? Believe it or not, the Bible presents some insights into this very question. In today’s episode, we’ll get an inside look at Paul’s decision-making process and learn how our questions are essential to following Jesus wholeheartedly.
