    Courtney: Intimacy and Freedom with Jesus

    In this episode Lucy welcomes Courtney Ewing to the podcast. Courtney is a friend from Wake Forest and is involved in similar campus ministries as Lucy. Courtney and Lucy begin by discussing the definition of goodness. It can be defined as something that is beneficial, delicious, and nutritious. Furthermore, through a biblical lens goodness is defined by the character of God. With this in mind, Lucy and Courtney discuss how they have each seen God’s hand recently and how he is achieving goodness in their lives. Lucy and Courtney then ponder over the promise of abundance of life and how that can be seen even in unprecedented and hard times. Courtney then describes how intentionality has been on her heart recently. She has felt called to be intentional in friendships and in her pursuit of Christ in everyday life. Courtney reminds us of the power in listening to empathize rather than to always solve the problems of the people we love. They also discuss how intentionality is also required in culture and in getting to know the heart of God. Courtney describes what intimacy with Christ looks like to her and how she plans her schedule to prioritize spending time in prayer and in the word. She thoroughly covers the topic of intimacy with Christ and how that intimacy is life-changing and freeing. Courtney reminds us that even biblical characters, such as those in the old testament, could sometimes be “on fire for the Lord” and other times deny him. Ultimately, our salvation rests purely in his hands and not in how “good” of a Christian you are. Listen along to hear an encouraging and honest conversation about experiencing intentionality, intimacy, and freedom in Jesus Christ.
