    Resting in the Father’s Presence

    *Listen to the Show notes and podcast transcript with this multi-language player. Summary This conversation focuses on moving from striving in the soul and mind into the rest of God that is already available through Christ. The speakers emphasize that believers do not have to work their way into God’s presence because Christ has already opened the way to the Father. The struggle comes when the mind and soul try to understand, control, or produce what only the Spirit can bring forth. The discussion points to a simple, childlike trust in the Father. Instead of constantly striving to know the Lord by human effort, there is also the truth that the Father wants to know us and reveal who we are in Him. Mary and Martha are used as examples of the difference between being distracted by many things and being focused on ministering to what is on the Lord’s heart. The conversation closes with the thought that this is a growth process, where the Father forms us as His workmanship and brings forth the new creation within us. Show Notes Living from the Spirit, Not the Soul Ken opens the conversation by pointing out that the mind and soul life are not where believers truly live now. The real place of life is in the spirit. Christ Has Opened the Way to the Father Mike emphasizes that Jesus’ purpose was to bring us into the same relationship with the Father that He has. Through the cross, that door has already been opened. Rest Is Already Available The speakers bring out that rest is not something we struggle to attain. Because Christ is already in the Father’s presence, believers have access to that rest now. Moving Beyond Striving Ron talks about the long-standing drive to know the Lord, but also points out the other side of the relationship: the Lord wants to know us. True relationship with God is not built by anxious effort, but by trust and rest. The Simplicity of a Child Ron describes relaxing in the Lord like a child. A child does not carry the burden of trying to figure everything out, but simply lives and trusts. Mary and Martha Mike uses Mary and Martha to show the difference between distraction and true ministry to the Lord. Mary focused on what was needed in the moment, while Martha was pulled in many directions. Becoming His Workmanship Ken closes by describing this as a growth process. The Father works uniquely in each person, bringing forth the new creation as the old nature is laid down. Quotes “Your mind is not your friend. Your soul life is not your friend. The spirit is where we live now, not on the soul plane.” — Ken “Jesus’s drive was to get us to the Father.” — Mike “It’s not a struggling and striving, trying to get there.” — Mike “We have access to His rest anytime we want it.” — Mike “The Lord loves us right where we’re at.” — Ron “There’s a flip side of that coin. The flip side is the one we always ignore, is that He wants to know us.” — Ron “How do I relax? Like a child.” — Ron “People don’t know how to rest.” — Ron “Are we gonna be a Mary or a Martha?” — Mike “You just have to do the number one thing, is trust.” — Ken Scriptural References Resting in the Father Through Christ John 14 (6) — Jesus is the way to the Father, and through Him the relationship with the Father is opened. John 17 (21–23) — Jesus prays that His people would be brought into the same oneness He has with the Father. Hebrews 4 (9–11) — There remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God, and believers are called to enter that rest. The Finished Work of Christ John 19 (30) — Jesus declares, “It is finished,” pointing to the completed work of the cross. Hebrews 10 (19–22) — Through Christ, believers have confidence to enter into the presence of God. Not Striving, but Trusting Matthew 6 (25–34) — Jesus teaches not to worry about food, clothing, or tomorrow, but to seek first the Kingdom. Psalm 46 (10) — “Be still, and know that I am God.” Proverbs 3 (5–6) — Trust in the Lord rather than leaning on human understanding. Mary and Martha Luke 10 (38–42) — Mary sits at the Lord’s feet while Martha is distracted with many things; Jesus says Mary chose the better part. John 12 (1–8) — Mary ministers to Jesus by anointing Him before His death. Being Known by the Lord Matthew 7 (21–23) — Jesus speaks of those who did works in His name, yet He says, “I never knew you.” Galatians 4 (9) — Paul speaks of not only knowing God, but being known by God. Becoming His Workmanship Ephesians 2 (10) — We are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works. 2 Corinthians 5 (17) — Anyone in Christ is a new creation. Galatians 3 (28) — In Christ there is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female. Romans 8 (29) — God’s purpose is to conform us to the image of His Son. Takeaway The rest of God is not reached by striving, struggling, or trying to force spiritual growth through the mind. Christ has already opened the way to the Father, and His presence is available now. As we learn to trust like children, lay down the soul-life, and live from the Spirit, the Father forms us as His workmanship and brings forth the new creation within us.

    The Father’s Love – the Foundation of True Oneness

    *Listen to the Show notes and podcast transcript with this multi-language player. Summary This conversation centers on the Father’s love as the foundation of true oneness. The speakers emphasize that believers cannot minister love, understand Scripture rightly, walk in Christ’s lordship, or love one another sacrificially unless they first have a living experience of the Father’s love. This love is not merely a feeling or religious idea, but an active relationship with God that matures, changes the heart, constrains the believer, and enables the Body of Christ to walk in true oneness. Show Notes The Father’s Love Must Be Experienced Ron opens by saying that we cannot give what we do not have. To minister the love of God to others, including Israel, we must first personally experience the Lord’s love. God’s Love Is the Foundation of Oneness Ken explains that the Father’s love is the foundation of oneness. It is not something believers can manufacture in themselves. True oneness comes from His love, not human effort. Love Changes How We See Scripture and Life Ron points out that without God’s love, we misinterpret Scripture and even life itself. The love of the Father becomes the lens through which His lordship, His Word, and His purpose are rightly understood. The Early Church Walked in Overwhelming Love Ken reflects on the early church and how believers continued to follow Christ even under persecution. Their willingness to lay down their lives came from the overwhelming love of God, not from a mental belief alone. Love Is More Than a Feeling The speakers clarify that God’s love is not simply an emotional feeling, though it can overflow with emotion and joy. It is an experience with God that becomes a way of life and continues even through trials, testing, and practical daily walking with Him. The Love of God Constrains Us Mike brings out the word “constrain,” showing that the love of God draws, compels, drives, and presses believers forward. David connects this to the Holy Spirit driving Jesus into the wilderness after He was filled with the Spirit. Love Matures Through Relationship Cindy and Jenifier discuss how our revelation of the Father’s love grows as we mature. God’s love does not change, but the way He relates to us changes as we grow from spiritual children into maturity. Loving God With All the Heart Dale connects the conversation to the great commandment: loving the Lord with all the heart, soul, mind, and strength. This love grows beyond human interpretation and brings believers into a true spiritual relationship with the Father. Receiving Love Before Giving Love Kilyia closes with the heart of the message: God wants to love us, and He wants to be loved by us. As we allow Him to love us, we are then able to love Him and others with an intensity that meets His heart. Key Quotes “We can't give what we don't have.” — Ron “This message of love from the Father is the foundation of oneness forever. It is His love, not ours.” — Ken “We misinterpret the scriptures without His love. In fact, we misinterpret life without His love.” — Ron “Love is not a feeling… Love is an experience with God.” — Ken “The love of God is a usable component.” — Bill “The love of God constrains us.” — Mike “Revelation is a really key word here. To know His love for me.” — Cindy “Jesus opened the door to the Father’s heart.” — Ken “It starts that I let Him love me, and then I can love the people around me.” — Kyla Scriptural References God Is Love These scriptures reveal that love begins in God Himself. We do not create divine love; we receive it from the Father and then minister it to others. 1 John 4 (8) 1 John 4 (16–19) The Love of Christ Constrains Us The conversation refers directly to the love of God controlling, compelling, and constraining believers to walk beyond themselves. 2 Corinthians 5 (14–15) The Great Commandment The speakers connect the Father’s love to loving God with the whole heart, soul, mind, and strength, and loving our neighbor as ourselves. Matthew 22 (37–40) Mark 12 (29–31) Deuteronomy 6 (4–5) Laying Down Our Life in Love Ken speaks of loving others with the kind of love that is willing to lay down its life. John 15 (12–13) 1 John 3 (16) The Holy Spirit Leading and Driving Jesus David connects the constraining work of love to the Holy Spirit driving Jesus into the wilderness. Mark 1 (10–13) Luke 4 (1–2) Jesus Reveals the Father The discussion emphasizes that Jesus opened the door to the Father’s heart and brought believers into relationship with Him. John 14 (6–10) John 17 (25–26) Hebrews 10 (19–22) Growing Into Maturity Through Relationship The speakers describe how God relates to us differently as we mature, and how relationship with the Father changes us. 2 Corinthians 3 (18) Ephesians 4

Ron's experience in Israel highlights a lifestyle where prayer and Scripture are woven into everyday life, creating a constant focus on the Lord. The discussion reveals that God's ultimate purpose is not merely to bring His people into agreement with one another, but into oneness with Himself. As believers grow in their relationship with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, true unity becomes a natural byproduct. The speakers emphasize that oneness is sustained by God's love, not human effort, and that the pathway into this reality is through the cross. The conversation concludes with the understanding that spiritual maturity is measured not by doctrine or religious performance, but by love, surrender, and participation in the life of Christ. Show Notes Living in Continual Awareness of God's Presence Ron shares how beginning everything with prayer continually brings his focus back to the Lord. He reflects on memorizing and meditating on Scripture throughout the day and how this practice cultivates a greater awareness of God's presence. A Living Expression of the Body of Christ Ron recounts his experience attending a Messianic Jewish Kehilah in Jerusalem, where worship, Scripture, and participation from people of all ages flowed together naturally. The gathering demonstrated a living picture of the Body of Christ functioning as every member supplied. Walking the Path God Has Given The speakers discuss the importance of trusting God's leading in uncertain times. Rather than being consumed by world events, believers are encouraged to remain faithful to the path the Lord has placed before them. Preparing for Eternal Fellowship The conversation highlights how God is preparing His people for eternity in His presence. Prayer, worship, and communion with Him are not temporary practices but part of the inheritance believers are growing into.

Christ remains the center of all genuine relationships within the Body of Christ. God's Love as the Source of Unity The speakers emphasize that God's love—not human effort—is what enables believers to truly love one another and walk together in harmony. The Cross as the Pathway The cross remains the doorway into deeper fellowship with God. Through surrender and identification with Christ, believers are brought into greater unity with Him and with one another. Oneness as a Byproduct of Relationship The discussion concludes with the understanding that oneness cannot be achieved through striving.

Out of that relationship flows peace, worship, fellowship, and a living expression of Christ through His Body.

    Neither Jew Nor Greek: The New Creation God Is Bringing Forth

    *Listen to the Show notes and podcast transcript with this multi-language player. Summary This conversation focuses on the mystery of God's redemptive plan and the necessity of remaining open to the ongoing revelation of the Holy Spirit. The speakers discuss God's covenant promises concerning Israel, acknowledging that some scriptures appear difficult to reconcile through natural understanding alone. Rather than forcing God's Word into fixed doctrinal conclusions, believers are encouraged to trust what God has spoken and allow Him to reveal His purposes in His timing. The discussion also highlights God's ultimate purpose of creating a new humanity in Christ that transcends all natural distinctions. The family emphasizes humility, spiritual openness, and dependence upon the mind of Christ rather than human reasoning.
