Today's Purpose Podcast with Christina Bostick Christina Bostick

In this episode, Christina uses the stories of Cain and Noah to emphasize costly sacrifice and giving our very best to God. She unpacks what it means to worship and live for God in a way that actually COSTS you something… Not the kind of cost that ends in lack, but the kind of cost where you have everything to gain.

Did God really say that thing you’re believing? 
 
In today’s episode, Christina unpacks how important it is to be a generation who confidently knows exactly what God has spoken throughout His Word. Learning from the example of Eve’s deception in the Garden of Eden, we see how any confusion, doubt, or uncertainty about God’s truth only allows space for the enemy’s lies.

Real talk. How many of you can’t quite get yourself to believe those Bible verses that say God wants to give us the desires of our heart because you’re still without all the things you’ve ever asked him for? If this resonates, then stick around because this episode is for you!! Christina dives into how God oftentimes doesn't give us what we WANT, but what we NEED, and it's so much better that way. He definitely wants to give us the desires of our hearts, but even more than that, He wants to give us abundantly more than all we could ever hope, think, or imagine. Abundantly more to God is quite literally abundantly more than what we can wrap our simple minds around, and it involves some needed heart refinement along the way so we can fully receive whatever it may be.

Are you waiting for a spouse, baby, career, physical or emotional healing, or the restoration of a relationship? The waiting season can be an extremely painful one that potentially threatens our mental, emotional, and spiritual growth as discouragement creeps in.
 
In today’s episode, author and licensed mental health therapist Barb Hill joins the podcast to talk about her book, “Seasons of Waiting: An Invitation to Hope,” a 52 week devotional written as a compassionate guide to validate the disorienting experience of waiting. These devotionals are unlike anything you will read on this topic and have a powerful way of sparking curiosity, speaking truth, and reawakening hope in whatever season of waiting you might find yourself in. In this episode, Barb talks about how faith and mental health go hand-in-hand and provides practical steps towards health and embracing a more fruitful way of waiting.
