A highly sought after speaker, Dr. Sleeth has spoken at more than 1,000 churches, campuses, and events, including serving as the monthly guest preacher at The Washington National Cathedral.  Recognized by Newsweek as one of the nation’s most influential evangelical leaders, Dr. Sleeth is the executive director of Blessed Earth, founder of the Seminary Stewardship Alliance, and author of numerous creation care books and articles.  He lives in Lexington, Kentucky, with his wife of nearly four decades.  Their grown children and their spouses serve in full-time medical missions in Kenya and in pastoral ministry in Kentucky.

Greg wraps up his week with talking with Associate Minister at LexCity Church, Helen Musick about finding a safe place to begin healing.  It is a safe, judgement-free environment for anyone ages 18+ who struggles with past hurt, present addiction, harmful habits, or a need for greater freedom in any area to take steps toward freedom & recovery while making issue-specific connections.

The MAT meets every Thursday at 6:30pm.  Visit https://lexcity.church/freedom-recovery for directions and/or more information.

Many of us are working through hard, dirty work to get to Jesus to receive healing.  Mark Chapter 2 tells the story of four men who carried a paralyzed man to Jesus, digging through the roof above where Jesus was preaching, to lower him on a mat for Jesus to heal.

Starting tonight (August 22, 2019) there is a new program called “The MAT.”  It is a safe, judgement-free environment for anyone ages 18+ who struggles with past hurt, present addiction, harmful habits, or a need for greater freedom in any area to take steps toward freedom & recovery while making issue-specific connections.  The MAT meets every Thursday starting tonight at 6:30pm.  Visit https://lexcity.church/freedom-recovery for directions and/or more information.

Helen Musick continues her discussion with Greg about how we often believe the lies that mistakes of our past define who we are today.  She uses a great acronym with the word T.R.U.T.H.

Tell God how you feel
Respond humbly to God tells you
Unite with others who can tell you the truth
Trust God’s Timing
Help others see God’s glory by how you live today

Associate Minister at LexCity Church, Helen Musick, joins Greg to bring words of encouragement about how our past can keep us stuck from the present that God has for us.   God never brings up our past to shame us, he brings it up to free us.

Today Greg talks about the power our words can have on others.  They can bring great harm and hurt to others or they can bring comfort and love.  With the Holy Spirit, we can have power over our tongue.  With scriptural advice, Greg encourages us to choose our words.
