The God of the Bible is a talking God. All throughout the Scriptures, God is seen talking to people. First to the prophets, then most fully in Jesus and today through his Holy Spirit. When we choose to follow Jesus, the Spirit speaks to remind us of all that Jesus established and apply it to our lives. So how does the Spirit speak? How do we know it’s God? And what happens afterwards? Join Rev Dr Tania Harris as she explores what the Spirit is saying to us. Everyday God Conversations will encourage you weekly to reflect on the God-conversations of Scripture, the ultimate God-conversation in Jesus and to hear from the Holy Spirit yourself. Remember, it was never meant to be a one-way conversation! Listen to more from our Hope Podcasts collection at hopepodcasts.com.au.

    Stop Living on Someone Else’s God Conversations - Part 2

    Key Takeaways: Fear and doubt often drive people to seek others' interpretation of God's voice, hindering their personal spiritual growth. The Bible encourages individual engagement with God, as evidenced by Jesus' teachings and the Pentecost experience. There is no need for theological expertise to hear from God; a seeking heart is what God desires. Understanding God's character through Jesus helps overcome fears of condemnation, enabling a more intimate relationship with God. Being open to God's message involves courage and trust in His goodness and intention for our lives. Notable Quotes: "Sometimes we settle for a secondhand relationship… We try to outsource our relationship with God to somebody else." "When we try to borrow from the experience of another person's walk… we miss out on our own." "The Israelites said to Moses, 'You go up the mountain and hear God's voice for us.'" "The Spirit was poured out on every person at Pentecost so that we could hear the voice of God for ourselves." "Speak Lord, I'm listening. I want to know you for myself."

    Stop Living on Someone Else’s God Conversations - Part 1

    Key Takeaways: Many people experience their faith secondhand, knowing about God through others rather than through personal encounters. Historically, prophets acted as intermediaries, highlighting the pattern of indirect interaction with God that persisted until the new covenant through Christ. The guest reflects on turning 21 as a pivotal moment to seek a direct conversation with God, leading to a personal and meaningful faith transformation. Prophecies from Ezekiel and Jeremiah foretold a time when everyone could hear God's voice directly, emphasizing the personal nature of faith. The episode encourages listeners to actively seek a personal relationship with God through prayer and openness to the Holy Spirit. Notable Quotes: "It was a bit like knowing the King of England through the pages of a magazine. You wouldn’t really know him unless you sat down and had a cup of tea with him." "Before Jesus came, people were hearing God’s voice, but it largely came through somebody else." "A second hand relationship is not God's heart for us. God wants us to know him personally." "Speak to me Lord, make it clear and I will do what you say." "The Holy Spirit has been poured out on everyone so we can all hear the voice of the Spirit."   The God of the Bible is a talking God.

    From Doom To Doing Good

    Key Takeaways: Prophets as Guides, Not Harbingers: Prophets like Agabus provided guidance on responding to upcoming challenges, emphasising constructive actions over fear-mongering predictions. Generosity and Community Effort: The early church's organised response to Agabus's prophecy underscores the importance of collective effort and intentionality in charitable giving. Faith in Action: Following Jesus means actively supporting those in need around us, reflecting our true understanding of His teachings. Spirit-led Generosity: Listening to God's voice involves recognising practical opportunities for generosity in everyday life, not just during significant moments or events. Personal Reflection on Giving: Engage in introspection about one's role and capacity to contribute to the welfare of those less fortunate in one's community. Notable Quotes: "When we think about hearing the voice of God, we shouldn't be surprised if the Spirit speaks to us about giving to the poor." "Agabus's prophecy wasn't a doomsday message about famine as much as it was guidance for how to respond to hard times." "In Paul's heart, he knew how essential it was for followers of Jesus to remember the poor." "The Holy Spirit continues the work that Jesus demonstrated." "Who is my poor? Who in my world can I give to?" The God of the Bible is a talking God. All throughout the Scriptures, God is seen talking to people.

    The Kind Of God Conversation We Don't Expect P2

    Key Takeaways: Following God's mission can lead to spiritual conflict and opposition, similar to Apostle Paul's experiences. Commitment to God's call often requires personal sacrifice and the willingness to face adversity. Recognising the cost of discipleship is vital; believers must be prepared to give up everything. Personal stories, like Dawn's bravery in preventing abuse, highlight the practical impact of obedience. Encouragement for listeners to persist in their spiritual journey, reaffirming that God's eternal purpose will prevail. Notable Quotes: "As a young person, I thought… if only I just did what God said, it would all come out perfectly right. How wrong was I?" "He knew what he was called to do, and no obstacle was going to stop him." "When you accept the invitation to participate in my mission, sit down and think about it, because it's going to cost you." "In rescuing Sammy, Dawn had lost her family. But for Dawn, it was well worth it." "The one who gave his own life showed us that it was worth it for everyone who answers the call."
