    318 | Stay Alert: The Danger of Spiritual Complacency – 1 Peter 5:8 and the Call to Vigilance

    Have you ever felt like you could just coast for a little while in your faith—take your foot off the gas and assume everything will be fine? That’s exactly what the enemy wants. 1 Peter 5:8 warns us to stay spiritually vigilant. Because when we stop paying attention, we’re at the most risk. Angie and Katie kick off a brand-new series designed to equip you to fight the lies of the enemy with the truth of God’s Word. The enemy may be on the prowl, but God has already given us everything we need to stand strong. 1 Peter 5:8 (NIV) Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. https://livesteadyon.com/ https://www.logos.com/ https://enduringword.com/ https://www.wordhippo.com/ https://www.biblegateway.com/ https://www.blueletterbible.org/ Roger M.

    317 | Trusting Jesus Over Self-Reliance - Hearing the Call in Luke 5:11

    What does it really mean to follow Jesus? In a world that tells us to chase our dreams and follow our hearts, the call to trust and obey can feel countercultural—even restrictive. But what if surrendering to Him is the key to true freedom and purpose? Join Angie and Katie as they dive into Luke 5:11, unpacking the power of Jesus’ invitation to follow Him. Together, we’ll explore how letting go of our own plans and embracing His way leads to lasting fulfillment—far beyond what we could achieve on our own.   Luke 5:11 (NIV) So they pulled their boats up on shore, left everything and followed him.   https://livesteadyon.com/   https://www.logos.com/ https://enduringword.com/ https://www.wordhippo.com/ https://www.biblegateway.com/ https://www.blueletterbible.org/ Stein, Robert H.

    316 | Let God Handle It - Trusting Romans 12:19

    Justice isn’t about payback—it’s about redemption. Romans 12:19 reminds us to leave vengeance to God, but that’s easier said than done. When we’re wronged, the desire for immediate justice can be overwhelming. Yet, God’s discipline is rooted in mercy, shaping us for our good. In this podcast, Angie and Susie explore how surrendering control and trusting His process can transform our pain into purpose. Join us as we dive into what it truly means to let go and let God work. Romans 12:19 (NIV) Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord. https://livesteadyon.com/ https://susiecrosby.com/ https://www.logos.com/ https://enduringword.com/ https://www.wordhippo.com/ https://www.biblegateway.com/ https://www.blueletterbible.org/ Gottlob Schrenk, “Ἐκδικέω, Ἔκδικος, Ἐκδίκησις,” ed.

    315 | Faith that pleases God - living out Hebrews 11:6.

    Faith isn’t just believing—it’s staying connected to Jesus. Hebrews 11:6 reminds us that without faith, it’s impossible to please God, but what does that mean for our daily lives? In this podcast, Susie and Angie explore how faith fuels our relationship with Christ, helps us hear His voice, and strengthens our walk with Him. Join us as we dive into practical ways to keep our focus on the main thing—our connection with Jesus.
