E147 - Steve McVey Part 2 | Grace Walk Ministries | Finding God in the Quantum Realm

We had the privilege of joining nearly 60 Immanuel Approach Prayer ministers last week ministering to over 450 InterVarsity Staff members at their conference in Orlando. While there, we were interviewed in front of our peers by Nate Harkness, a fellow Immanuel Prayer minister who is the Director of International Ministries at World Discipleship Association in Fayetteville, GA. As hosts of this show, you get to hear bits and pieces from us as we interview others, but it's not often we share our hearts to the extent we do in this episode. In this conversation, you will learn some of the things we're passionate about.  For more about us, the Immanuel Approach, and how we are raising up people to help others connect with Jesus, please join us Jan 22-26, 2024 for the Connect Others with Jesus Challenge Sign up up at immanueltraining.com/Challenge.

"Faith is not intellectual. It is experiential. It is Transformational - not Transactional." "God showed up? No - YOU showed up. He is already here!" “You can’t give away what you don’t have. I was giving away fear, shame, doubt, unworthiness, feeling alone, powerless - these were false identities. If you can say “I am” in front of it, it’s an identity." "Jesus came to usher in the Kingdom of God, not create Christianity." These are just a few of the gems from our guest, Donna Winship, who with her husband, Jamie, founded Identity Exchange. They are committed to "helping unlock the transformative power of knowing your true identity."  This conversation is rich with personal story and revelation that is bringing freedom and healing to many as they step into who they truly are, and understand more of who God is and how he feels about them.  Learn more about Donna and Jamie at identityexchange.com.

"When you have separation at the foundation of your theology, then retribution is part of your paradigm." "A God who looks away will create sons and daughters that can justify looking away. And a God who punishes will create leaders who are justified in punishing - and it's going to create bullies." "You can't flip a table (referencing Jesus in the Temple) if you're not willing to lay your life down for the person on the other side of the table. This is what we are missing. It becomes 'us' and 'them.' But, Jesus died for the person on the other side of the table." Welcome back for Part 2 of our paradigm shifting conversation with author and relational theologian, Jason Clark. We are exploring some things in this conversation that may potentiall bother you, but they may also resonate deeply with you. Our invitation is to ask Jesus for yourself. It is safe to ask questions. At the end of the day, let greater love be your compass.

Desparation (being 'desparate' for God) is often considered a high water mark for Christendom. But  as Jason quotes speaker and author, Graham Cooke, "A relationship where the son is always desparate for the father is dysfunctional." We're going deep with our friend, Jason Clark, whom you may remember from Episode 105 in our podcast. Jason will shake your theology in a good way as he challenges us to explore what it means live out of our union with God. The invitation is yours to step into the great freedom that comes from realizing that God never leaves. He is always with us. He is continually reconciling all things to himself. We may not always be aware, but we are invited to awaken. Plus, we've all probably looked at the Parable of the Sower through the lens of wanting to be good soil... but what if it's more about the sower and the seed? Hang on for a paradigm shift! Don't miss part 2 coming soon! Find more from Jason at afamilystory.org, and @jasonclarkis on all the socials.

"If you want to learn something, watch someone do what you want to learn. As you watch. your brain will begin downloading and copying, changing like the person who is demonstrating. You will start demonstrating the skill simply by watching. "When you engage with the living presence ofJesus, the right hemisphere of your brain is watching Jesus. Your brain is literally becoming more like the mind of Christ." In Part 2 of our recent conversation with Dr. Karl Lehman, MD, hear the how and why behind InterVarsity embracing The Immanuel Approach for all their staff and students. You'll also learn some brain science about the fascinating power of mirror neurons. Be sure to listen to the front of this podcast as Cathy and Melinda share some important opportunities ahead for the ministry, and how you can be part of it. Thank you for being part of our podcast family!

"When it comes to improving mental and emotional health: What if you could make it more efficient? What if you could make it more gentle? What if you could make it consistently and predictably more effective?" Join us for another conversation with our mentor, Dr. Karl Lehman MD, founder of The Immanuel Approach, as we take a look at this model from a much bigger perspective. The Immanuel Approach is not just about inner healing. That is simply one item on the buffet. It's also about spiritual formation, true discipleship, developing greater discernment, receiving comfort directly from Jesus, learning how to interact with and process things with Jesus, and practice more powerful intercession. It's about friendship with Jesus and becoming more like him. If you have experienced a life-changing encounter with the living presence of Jesus, Dr. Karl also shares with you how you can help get the word out. For more conversations with Dr. Karl, see Episodes 13, 14, & 93. Learn more about The Immanuel Approach at immanuelapproach.com and on our website, facetofaceministries.org.
