    Behold, the King (An Easter Series, Part 1) | S4E30

    Palm Sunday wasn't just marketing for Jesus. It was an offer to accept Jesus Christ as King.  Our Messiah—our King—is one to whom we swear allegiance because we trust Him. To be saved by faith is not just accepting the gift of eternal life. It is trusting Jesus Christ enough to follow Him and obey even when we don’t understand where He is taking us and why the journey is so hard.  This doesn’t mean we have no doubts or that we need to have perfect faith before we can be saved. It means that, despite our doubts, we affirm the ancient declaration: “Jesus Christ is Lord.” For the next three episodes, we'll be lingering in the Easter season with thoughts on Jesus the King, the nature of "tough love" and how Jesus wielded it during Holy Week, and the incredible exchange that He offers through His death and resurrection. If you want to sit with some of these thoughts, you can find three related blog posts at Deeper Walk's website (linked).  Join us as we explore the significance of the Easter season, delving into Jesus' kingship, the rejection He faced, and what allegiance to King Jesus means for us today.  Thank you for joining us – father-daughter duo Marcus Warner and Stephanie Warner – on the trail to a deeper walk with God!  🎁 PALM SUNDAY BLOG: https://deeperwalk.com/a-palm-sunday-devotional/ 🏘️ HEALTHY COMMUNITY CONFERENCE: https://deeperwalk.com/product/healthy-community-conference-2026/ 🙏 PRAYER MINISTRY REFERRALS: https://deeperwalk.com/ministry-referrals/ 💝 PAY IT FORWARD: https://deeperwalk.com/donate/ 📸 Follow Deeper Walk AND On the Trail (NEW) on Instagram!  https://www.instagram.com/deeperwalkinternational/ https://www.instagram.com/onthetrail_podcast  🕊️ THE SPIRIT & SCRIPTURE COURSE: https://deeperwalk.com/spiritcourse 🎂 HAPPY BIRTHDAY RARE LEADERSHIP!: https://deeperwalk.com/product/rare-leadership-book/ Stay On the Trail toward a Deeper Walk with God with father-daughter duo Marcus Warner & Stephanie Warner.

    The Word Picture Approach to Prayer (Jumpstart Your Prayer Life, Part 6) | S4E29

    We don't interact with people as they are. We interact with people as we imagine them to be.  How does the devil want you to see your situation? How does God want you to see your situation?  To close our Jumpstart Your Prayer Life series, we're looking at The Word Picture Approach as a means of exposing the devil's lies and attuning to God's perspective. This approach was inspired by friend and former Deeper Walk board member Daryl Anderson, and we have found it so helpful throughout our years of ministry. The Word Picture Approach is a useful tool for personal reflection when seeking God and when praying with others.  Our goal with this series is to encourage you to deepen your prayer life and explore various approaches to your relationship with God. Throughout this series, we have walked through three approaches to your prayer time that we hope you find useful and refreshing.

    The Two Notebook Approach to Prayer (Jumpstart Your Prayer Life, Part 5) | S4E28

    Do you ever stop to pray and instead find yourself fighting off distracting or discouraging thoughts?  Have you ever wondered how people pray for hours not just minutes?   Next in our Jumpstart Your Prayer Life series, we're looking at The Two Notebook Approach as a means of being intentional and focused in conversational prayer with God. This approach was inspired by Marcus's contemplations on John C. Maxwell's Partners in Prayer and Neil T. Anderson's Liberating Prayer, and, yes, he's got an acrostic for you!  Our goal with this series is to encourage you to deepen your prayer life and explore various approaches to your relationship with God.
