As many of you know, Greg is a big sports fan having not only been a basketball coach, but hosted a sports radio show and a coach’s podcast.   During a sporting event there are offensive and defensive coordinators who can see the entire field or court, thus see what is going on from a higher perspective.  God is the same way.  From his perspective, he can see so much more than you can see and comprehend.  Today Greg uses this metaphor to help us understand that by that the perspective God is why need to trust Him.  He can see the whole picture.   This ministry refers to Colossians 3: 1-4; 12-15

Greg is joined by a past guest and author, Megan Jordan on the topic of ‘plateau.’  It’s about how we feel distinctive from the surrounding terrain.  A plateau is as a table; a place where we break bread with others.  If you’re going through a season of feeling empty, believe that God is waiting for you at the table, ready to share fruit.

Listen to previous interview with Megan:

5/1/2019 – Has Your Faith Been Shaken?
5/2/2019 – Does Your Faith Need Restored?
5/3/2019 – Applications for When Your Faith is Shaken
