    Episode 90: How GFI is Helping Students Live Victoriously

    In this episode, Mark is joined by GFI's office manager, Liz, and our newest colleague, Dr. Scott Jenkins. Together, they discuss a recent camp, the increase of mental health issues amongst teenagers, and how phones/social media have added to this increase. Dr. Scott describes how the teenage brain works with all the emotions being developed, but logic (the pre-frontal cortex) is not. He states that responding to emotion with emotion only causes more confusion for teenagers. Scott, Mark, and Liz also discuss a new upcoming GFI resource for teenagers.

    Episode 89: In Christ, We Also Have a Corporate Identity.

    In this podcast, Mark and John discuss how, in Christ, we have a personal identity, but also a corporate identity. In Scripture, we see believers being called the family of God and the body of Christ. In this episode, we discuss the meaning of the word church and why having a corporate identity is important in our daily faith life. Mark and John break down "living stones" in 1 Peter 2 and why being "Lone Ranger" Christians is not the way God designed community.

    Episode 88: The Pineapple Story

    We give thanks to the Institute in Basic Life Principles for allowing us to use the Pineapple Story. In this podcast, we hear from Otto Koning, a missionary in the area of Papua New Guinea. Otto's story is both humorous and convicting as he helps us see the importance of conquering anger and surrendering our rights.

    Episode 86: From Egypt, Through the Wilderness, and into Canaan

    Have you wondered why so many Christians struggle? In this episode, Mark and Dr. John discuss a seminar topic called, "Egypt, Wilderness, Canaan." If you would like a copy of this diagram, you can find it on the GFI App, or you can email hello@gracefellowshipinternational.com. Egypt speaks to life in bondage. The wilderness speaks to a life of struggle and self-effort. However, Canaan speaks to the Exchanged Life and a life of victory. If you think like a slave (Egypt), you will live like one. If you strive like an orphan (Wilderness), you will struggle. If you believe you are in Christ (Canaan), you will live in victory. The crowded to Christ can be heard on episode 29.

    Episode 83: Scrolling for Worth: Social Media, Mental Health, and Your Identity in Christ

    In this podcast, Mark and John discuss the role that social media plays in mental health. Social media has become a mirror for the flesh, and flesh problems are exposed by social media. Social media amplifies the fear of rejection. You and I are accepted in Christ, not by scrolling social media for identity. For most, social media is a highlight reel. When we compare our lives to others, this comparison produces insecurity, anxiety, discontentment, and false identity. Mark and John also discuss how social media can impact our identity in a negative way. To end the podcast, the guys discuss healthy alternatives, including setting boundaries, posting from overflow, and taking a weekly digital sabbath.
