LIGHT

I heard Mike Breaux once say “I wanna look like, live like, and love like Jesus.” Let’s hang out in John chapter 1 today. John is one of the three guys who were closest to Jesus. Consider the gospel of John as a biography of Jesus’ life written by one of his best friends. Let this form the foundation of your faith. God is still on the throne even if your life has been turned upside down. Let his light shine to those around you who need it. Tune in for 14 minutes of hope today!

When You Have a Wounded Heart (pt 3)

We’ve been looking at 6 ways God helps you when you have a wounded heart. God uses grief to help us grow. None of us like it when we are going through pain, but God always does His part and offers comfort during those seasons of grief. “All things work together for those who love the LORD and are called according to His purpose.” -Romans 8:28.

When You Have a Wounded Heart (pt 1)

46% of people are single, whether by choice or circumstance. Maybe Valentine’s Day should be called “Single’s Awareness Day.” God shows up best in seasons when you are hurting. He draws you close to himself. Psalm 34:18 “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” He never wastes a hurt. If you’re needing some encouragement in your current season of life, tune in to 14 minutes of comfort today for your wounded heart.

Food for Thought Friday

John 10:10 says “The enemy comes to kill, steal and destroy but I have come that you may have life and have it to the full.” The death of Chesley Kryst by suicide has shocked the world recently. Externally, she had it all but internally she lacked peace. There’s a God-shaped hole in us that only He can fill. You are not alone. There is hope.

4 Steps to Overcome Fear

Satan has stolen a lot of key moments in our lives by filling us with fear. There is freedom when we overcome that fear. Today, Greg shares with us 4 practical steps to overcome fear and find that freedom. 1 John 4:28 says “There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.” Maybe this needs to be your verse today. Courage is fear that has said its prayers! Tune in to today’s show for a taste of the freedom that can be ours when we overcome fear.

You Are Never Alone (pt 2)

God wants you to know that you are never alone. Hebrews 13:5-6 says “Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have because God has said, ‘Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.’ So we say with confidence, ‘The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?’” Join Greg today as he looks into God’s word for help in finding our identity in the Lord.

You Are Never Alone (pt1)

Some of you need to hear this news today: you are never alone and God cares for you. In Luke 10:40, Martha knew something about that when she cried out to Jesus, “Lord, don’t you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!” Do you ever feel like Martha? 1 Peter 5:7 “Cast all your cares on him because he cares for you.” You are never alone.

Don’t Look Back (pt 2)

Does Satan try to remind you of your past? Well, there is good news! You can remind him of his future. Greg digs into Genesis 19 and looks at God’s protection over Lot. There is hope in Jesus, no matter how dark the situation seems. Jeremiah 29:11 says “For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. They are plans for good and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.”

Don’t Look Back (pt1)

Are you at the end of your rope? Satan loves to isolate us, but the good news is God loves you and will meet you right where you are. You’re never alone. Genesis 19 tells the story of Lot and a time when angels reached out and protected him when Lot was at the end of his rope. Not only does God show up, but God shows off!
