Alison Lewis is an absolute PRAYER WARRIOR. Not only does she have deep theological knowledge and education, but is a very wise woman of God.

Today, you tell us her testimony and the way God led her through prayer to become the person she is today.

As we continue to walk with Jesus, we run into hard decision moments where we are asked to sacrifice our comfort, desires, pleasures, and sometimes even our lives, however, the question is: WILL YOU OBEY? Will you surrender it in order to receive something greater?  In this episode we’ve brought our great friend Samuel to discuss everything from the cost of following Jesus to learning to obey through the hardest obedience,, tune in for an amazing conversation filled with honesty, transparency, new perspectives, encouragement, and so much more.

What does Godly leadership look like? Leaders are people who teach and guide those that follow them, but what if we lead the people incorrectly? What are the pressures and obligations that a leader faces? Are we being led by Godly leadership, or people that simply sound convincing? In today’s episode, we take on what it takes to be a great leader, strong characteristics that leaders should have, and examples of impactful leaders in our lives. Your heart is the most important obligation when it comes to serving God's people. If you lead out of the wrong intentions, or without the Spirit of God, you will face a harsh downfall.

What does it mean to be a man after God's own heart? What made David so different from the rest of the heroes of faith in the Bible? How can we also be people after God's own heart? When we dive deep into the story of David we see the attributes, actions, and patterns he portrayed that gave reason for his famous title. From his crazy faith, to his deeply repentant heart, many of the things we recognize in his life can be applied in our lives. Join us as we truly dive deep into the story of David and discover how you too can be a person after God's own heart.

The Holy Spirit is a big part of our lives, but do we view him as such? Are we living Holy Spirit led lives? Are we allowing Jesus to be lord of our lives? Or are WE still lord of our lives? What is the proper way to view Evangelism? How can I act without feeling doubt or fear? Over the weekend Danny and I attended a conference where we learned new perspectives that blessed us so much we needed to share all that we learned straight to you guys. From seeing and hearing the Holy spirit tune in as we discuss the very INTENSE answer to “Not feeling like it”, as well as learning how to be more available to the Holy Spirit everyday resulting in a fully surrendered life to Jesus.
