345 Speaking for God

How can recalling family history and pulling out old family albums help your faith journey? Those photos of your uncle looking like a tourist in shorts, black socks and sandals should be good for something!! Rachelle and Carder discuss our ancestry in Christ.

Often, we overthink living a life for God. It's definitely important to show His love and kindness, know scripture and be ready to share the gospel. But one thing people often end up doing: using their own strength. This week, we talk about the difference in doing things FOR God, and doing things WITH God.

Carder talks about how he struggles to hear God's voice and gives advice for those that might be going through the same thing.

Rachelle talks about a stage in life that for some reason, no one talks about: even though every woman goes through it. Plus, how it relates to our faith.

A friend of Carder's pointed out one line from Jesus that should help all believers lean on God, and not feel like they have to do it all themselves. Also, we talk about encouragement to share your faith even when you don't feel "qualified" or that you know enough.

When someone says, "God told me": how can we validate that? Carder brings up a scripture that will give good wisdom for all of us.

Rachelle goes over things from scripture that often aren't brought out in an English translation.

How does one go about talking to someone with another viewpoint on faith? Carder talks about his experience talking with missionaries from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints that led to his new podcast.

Rachelle walks through a nerdy, er, fascinating new way to look at the Bible. It may help some of those tough to read parts come alive.

Rachelle had an encounter with a homeless man that she'll never forget. What came of it is a great plan for all of us who know someone that is hurting, especially when it comes to mental health.
