    Joy to the World - The Savior Reigns

    We all want to experience true joy and true peace, but for many of us, that sounds too “churchy” and unattainable. In this second Advent podcast episode, Stacy and Jacque are joined by JG Motice to discuss how we can actually live in peace. Looking at the way Jesus related to His Father, and exploring tangible practices for our own relationships, this episode offers a calming reminder that God truly loves us and wants to meet with us. We can experience peace this holiday season and beyond. 👉 Looking to do more with your family this December?  📖 Many of the women at Mission Hills Church are doing the Joy to the World Advent Bible Study produced by Lifeway Women.

    Joy to the World - The Lord has Come

    Is there a connection between trust and joy? In this first week of our Advent podcast, Stacy, Jacque and guest host Coletta Smith, explore that very question through the story of Elizabeth. By trusting in God’s character, Elizabeth found both solace and deep joy, rejoicing in what God was doing not only in her own life but in Mary’s as well. Coletta invites us to follow Elizabeth’s lead: to reject jealousy and comparison, to celebrate God’s work in others, and to trust that He will faithfully complete the work He has begun in each of us. Join us for a conversation that sets the tone for a season of expectancy and joy. 👉 Looking to do more with your family this December?  📖 Many of the women at Mission Hills Church are doing the Joy to the World Advent Bible Study produced by Lifeway Women.

  6. Is Your Schedule a Sign of Surrender or Self-Reliance

    Is Your Schedule a Sign of Surrender or Self-Reliance

    Ever feel like your calendar is your comfort? A method of controlling your days? In this week’s episode of our James Bible Study series, we unpack James 4:13–5:12 and dive into what it means to plan with humility, live with eternal perspective, and steward both time and wealth wisely. Kim challenges us to consider where our trust truly lies and the roles that surrender, justice, and patient endurance play. ============================= Reflection Questions: ============================= ✅ What do your calendar and spending habits reveal about who—or what—you trust most? ✅ Are there any areas of your life where you’re planning without inviting God in? Where do you struggle to trust God? ✅ How do you respond to inconvenience or disrupted plans, and what does that reveal about your level of surrender? ✅ What does “patient endurance” look like in your current season—and how can you lean into it more fully this week? ============================= The Study of James: A Product of Anchor + Waves Channel Credits ============================= 🎙️ HOST:: Kim Fearing 🎛️ PRODUCER:: Lepard Productions 🎨 CREATIVE DIRECTOR:: Colin McFarland   A Product of Lepard Productions and the Mission Hills Podcast Network in Littleton, CO. © Mission Hills Church - All Rights Reserved

  7. Letting Go of the Rope: What Surrender Really Means

    Letting Go of the Rope: What Surrender Really Means

    Ever feel like your heart is in a constant tug-of-war between what you want and what God wants? In this week’s Bible study, we dive into James 3 and 4 to explore the difference between worldly wisdom and godly wisdom. Submitting to God and purifying our hearts can feel counter-cultural, but it is by this that the Fruits of the Spirit can grow.  Through relatable stories, honest questions, and biblical insight, we’re reminded that peace doesn’t come from more control—it comes from surrender. Let’s talk about what it really means to draw near to God and leave the judging and law-making to Him. ============================= Reflection Questions: ============================= ✅ Where in your life are you holding onto control instead of surrendering to God? ✅ How have you seen worldly wisdom show up in your decision-making lately? ✅ What internal desires are driving external conflict in your relationships right now? ✅ When you pray, are you seeking God’s will—or your own? ✅ How can you intentionally draw near to God this week, trusting that He’s already near to you? ============================= The Study of James: A Product of Anchor + Waves Channel Credits ============================= 🎙️ HOST:: Kim Fearing 🎛️ PRODUCER:: Lepard Productions 🎨 CREATIVE DIRECTOR:: Colin McFarland   A Product of Lepard Productions and the Mission Hills Podcast Network in Littleton, CO. © Mission Hills Church - All Rights Reserved

  8. Forests Set Ablaze: What Your Words Say About Your Heart?

    Forests Set Ablaze: What Your Words Say About Your Heart?

    Are your words building people up—or burning them down? Whether a wild flame or a smoldering ember, our words have more impact and better reflect the state of our hearts than we might think. In this episode of our study through James, we delve into Chapter 3 and explore why our speech is a powerful reflection of our spiritual maturity. Host Kim Fearing shares honest insights about the struggle to tame our tongues, what the Bible really says about the weight of our words, and how to speak from faith and grace instead of destruction. Whether you're dealing with conflict, parenting tensions, or just trying to bite your tongue in everyday life, this episode will challenge and encourage you to grow in Christ-like wisdom. To lean into the Holy Spirit. ============================= Reflection Questions: ============================= ✅ In what situations do you find it hardest to pause before speaking? ✅ When have you seen your words either build someone up—or (intentionally or not) tear them down? ✅ How does your current speech reflect the maturity of your faith? ✅ Do you find it easier to speak life to others—or to yourself? ✅ What’s one area of your speech (tone, truth, timing, etc.) that God may be inviting you to surrender and grow in? ============================= The Study of James: A Product of Anchor + Waves Channel Credits ============================= 🎙️ HOST:: Kim Fearing 🎛️ PRODUCER:: Lepard Productions 🎨 CREATIVE DIRECTOR:: Colin McFarland   A Product of Lepard Productions and the Mission Hills Podcast Network in Littleton, CO. © Mission Hills Church - All Rights Reserved
