We are starting a series called, "Celebrating Jesus’ Life". Jesus’ life not only shows us the character of our God, but also how He desires us to live.There are three aspects of Jesus’ life that we are going to take a look at during the Christmas season. This week let’s look at who Jesus notices. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Who is a child of God? This is a great question. This topic may be helpful for presenting the gospel with your friend. You may even be surprised how this topic might help you understand who you are. There are five characteristics from Romans 8:12-18 that define a child of God. We are going to take a look at those five characteristics with Hannah this week.

"I am spiritual — not religious". Have you heard this phrase? 30% of millinnials do not subscribe to a religion. So what are we? Are we spiritual or religious? That's the question we are going to answer in this week's episode of That's Real. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What is gratitude? Good question. Let's take a look at gratitude and start in the Psalms. David's practice of gratitude might surprise you. It's much more than a journal and happy wishes. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

If you feel lost, do this one thing. Finding purpose and direction can be found when you start doing this one thing that Christ lived for. He came to do one thing according to Matthew 20:28. We are going to talk about it during this episode.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hebrews 12 talks about building endurance and the role discipline has in our life. The author starts off talking about one thing that launches the believer towards endurance and staying in the race. Listen to this week’s episode to find out what that is because building endurance is hard. Building spiritual endurance is even harder. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You can build good habits in your life using great tools like reading books on the topic, buying a planner, finding an accountability partner — But as a Christian you have something in your life that is so much more powerful than all of those tools. This week we are talking about what that is and how we can break bad habits and build good habits with a plan and a strategy.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Are you someone who loves to keep busy? Then this episode is for you. We are going to learn from Martha and Mary. Two sisters who value different things. Jesus has a few things to say about it. He might want and desire you to sit still for a change.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It can be really scary to invite a friend to church. What will they think?! This week I will share with you a few stats that will inspire you. We are also going to be reminded about what and who church is for. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week we are walking through what it looks like to repay evil with good. What a hard and challenging phrase. We find this phrase throughout the Bible — in the Old Testament along with the New. This means we should pay attention. Hannah is using a popular TV series as an example of what we find in Proverbs, Romans 12, 1 Peter 3 and 1 Thessalonians 5:15.

What do you look for in a friend? Psalm 119:63 says, "I am a companion of all who fear you, of those who keep your precepts." Do we look for friends like that? Think of the person in your life who just loves God's Word. I can picture a few. I just want to sit in their presence. Those kinds of people are treasures and one of a kind. I want those kinds of people to be my friends. I also want you to notice that the Psalmist says ALL. They are a companion of ALL who fear God and live according to...

If you are feeling alone in your faith today you have to listen to this week's episode. We are looking at Psalm 119:61. The Psalmist in 119 vs 61 says, "though the cords of the wicked ensnare me, I do not forget your law." If you are the only one who knows Christ in your work, school or family cling to God's Word. Take it as a challenge. Study God's Word. Really take God at His Word. When you look back you will be able to see how much God taught you about Himself.  See...

Have you heard the phrase "You Are Enough"? It's all over Pinterest. I am not going to lie... I don't hate it. It comes from a good place. But I would argue that it doesn't work. Take a look at our Psalm 119:59 verse this week: Psalm 119: 59, "When I think on my ways, I turn my feet to your testimonies." The Psalmist looked at their ways and found themselves lacking. They turned their steps towards His Word. Let's look at God's Word and see what it says.  Romans 3:23 says, "For all have...

We are continuing our series of Psalm 119:57-64. What does the word "portion" mean in Psalm 119:57? A friend of mine told me they thought it meant a piece of something, like a piece of cake. If we look at the context it is so much more! The word refers to spoils of war. David would have seen this in his years of fighting battles. Many would have called out “my portion” in victory. When we talk about “portion” we are talking about sustaining provision. Often we don’t think of land as provision...

I don't have a huge turn around salvation story. It is not a big drugs to Jesus testimony. However, I can testify that it is truly a blessing to know Jesus at a young age. I don't regret it. I can see how much he has grown me and is growing me and he has spared me from a lot of pain. Psalm 119:60 says, "I hasten and do not delay to follow your commandments." When you know something is good for you, you don't wait. And my testimony is that walking with Jesus from a young age on is so good!...

This week's episode is my testimony. Listen to my simple story of Christ saving me. I am so humbled by my story. It had to only be the Holy Spirit. Here's a spoiler: I don't have a drugs to Jesus story. I actually was embarrassed about my story. However, I am here today to tell you not to wait when following Jesus. I don't regret it for a second! Psalm 119:60 says, "I hasten and do not delay to keep Your commandments". Don't wait! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

a Christian without the Holy Spirit is like a photographer without a camera. It isn't a thing. Because the Holy Spirit is given to the Christian at the point of salvation and continues to grow the Christian in the fruits of the spirit. Take a listen to this week's episode where we look at a few verses that shows us how we should relate to those who don't know Jesus.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I don’t like following recipes. Recently my husband and I started following a blogger who does all the work for us. She plans out daily meals, a grocery list, the budget... and because of this we are learning to cook really good food. This is how God’s law is. God has a recipe for life and for some reason we don’t like to follow it. But when we do we find that the directions he’s given us really is good! Psalm 119:103 says “How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my...
