Choose to Keep Going, part 2

In this episode, Jill and Laura continue their discussion on Choose to Keep Going. In this episode they focus on: 1. It's not about winning or losing - We perform for an audience of one. 2. Train hard and stay disciplined - Talent is no substitution for hard work. 3. Defy stereotypes and expectations - If God called you to it, He'll help you through it. They focus on the following bible verses: Colossians 3:23-24 “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.” Psalm 18:32-34 “It is God who arms me with strength and keeps my way secure. He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; he causes me to stand on the heights. He trains my hands for battle; my arms can bend a bow of bronze.”

Episode 5 - Choose to Keep going, part 1

Choose Ministry's theme for 2024 is Choose to Keep Going. This is the first of a 4 part series. The movie that came to mind with lessons on not giving up, to keep going, was Rocky! Rocky is not just a movie about boxing, but also important life lessons. In this episode we focus on 3 life lessons: Never Give Up, Embrace the Underdog Mentality, and Find Your Adrian. Bible verse: "For you know that when your faith is tested it stirs up in you the power of endurance. And then as your endurance grows even stronger, it will release perfection into every part of your being until there is nothing missing and nothing lacking." James 1:3-4 (TPT)

Episode 3 Choose Jesus and Obedience

We are excited to have special guest, Rachelle Rawson, join us for this episode of the Choose Chat Podcast. Rachelle shares her story of choosing the world and the darkness that brought to her life. She also shares how her world became brighter and filled with joy when she decided to choose Jesus and being obedient to Him. Rachelle shares her theme verse, from Psalm 63:1-3- "O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water. So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary, beholding your power and glory. Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you."

Choose Growth

Are you going to GO through life or GROW through life? Jill and Laura give practical ways to grow spiritually when you let God transform you. We believe God’s gift to us is potential. Our gift to God is developing it. Growth is hard. There’s tension between where you are and where God wants you to be. But we hope and pray you will choose growth! The key verse for this episode is Romans 12:2, "...let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect."
