Hope in a Hurting World

It's no surprise to me that so many Christians feel discouraged and hopeless because of everything going on in the world. There is division everywhere, unrest everywhere, injustice everywhere, and corruption everywhere. How do we as Christians hold onto hope and live out our callings when it feels like the world is burning down and we are too afraid to speak up? That's what we are diving into in this week's episode.

In this part 2 episode, I am concluding our dive into the book of Mark, where Jesus gives us the Greatest Command of loving God with all of our heart, soul, mind, and strength. Specifically speaking to the mind and our strength, we will explore how God can redeem our negative thoughts, restore our imaginations to glorify Him, and what it looks like to commit every gift and talent we've been given as an act of love and worship to the Lord.

In the book of Mark, Jesus instructs us to love the Lord with all of our heart, soul, mind, and strength, but what does this practically look like in our day-to-day lives? In part 1, I am diving into the heart and the soul, and how faithfulness speaks more than our feelings, and how loving Him with our everything is more than just a nice phrase.

The approval trap is ensnaring way too many of us... what do I mean by this? We are drawn into the need for man's approval and applause, for everyone to love us or, at the very least, like us, and to never fail anyone's assumptions about us. But this is unrealistic. Friends, we are now living for an audience of One when we become Christians, and God's approval and affection toward us should be enough! Let's talk about it.

The temptation to hide when we hurt and isolate when we go through shameful seasons is doing a lot more harm to us than healing for us. It's in stepping out into the light, seeking to be known by a healthy community, that we can move out of our pain into a posture of real connection and direction. My friend Toni Collier has lived this, written about this, and shares about her public divorce, the pain from her husband's affair, and the healing journey God took her on through community in today's episode and in her new book, which is available NOW!

What even is gossip? Is it going too far with the facts? Is it speaking behind someone’s back? What does the Bible actually have to say about it, and how can we start speaking life and honoring people with our speech instead of slandering and tearing them down?
