Above the Waves Abigail Fletcher

Seasons come and seasons go...some we wish would go quicker than others. Episode 20 recounts the season that has almost taken me down and the story of how God, who never left my side, is leading me out of it. It's real and raw and I am not proud but I stand to tell the story of God's love for a broken, lost soul such as mine.

Foolish. Disobedient. Led astray. How many of these words describe your past? For me, all of them do. How many of these words do you want to define your future? This episode examines a letter Paul wrote to Titus, a letter that was meant for every one of us who have ever missed the mark and believe the lie that our past defines us. You are not your mistakes. You are not your past. Through Christ, you are made NEW.

Christ is enough. Submit to His enoughness.

Episode 18 is an honest look at some of the tough lessons learn while walking through seasons we may not want to be in. This episode is for all who have ever gone through anything...bring your Kleenex.

People who believe in Jesus Christ are called Christians. But what does it actually mean to believe in Jesus? This episode looks at the defining facts of being a Christ follower and the places where we have added our own qualifications to God's great story of love and redemption.

You have a job to do. You have a race to run. A set course and purpose for your life designed specifically for you by the Creator, the same creator who made you. Sin and weights of our past keep us from running this race with the joy, effectiveness and purpose that is meant for us. In this episode go to the book of Hebrews and discover what we must do in order to run the race set before each of us.

Jesus was crucified on a cross because it seemed foolish that a carpenter from Nazareth could be the son of God and savior of the world. Religious leaders of the time created their own ideas of what the coming messiah would look like. Jesus did not fit the bill. God provided hundreds of very specific prophecies as to who and how the messiah would come into the world and though Jesus would fulfill every single one, he was put to death by the "wise" and "intelligent" leaders. So, how does your "wisdom" blind your view of God? Does salvation need to look a certain way in order for you to buy in? This episode explores the link between those who crucified Christ and our own need for God to do things our way.
