5-8-22 - Trees Dependence on Each Other
Saturday May 07, 2022
Saturday May 07, 2022
The readings this week are Acts 9:36-43, Psalm 23, Revelation 7:9-17, and John 10:22-30. This week we look at how we often think that we are independent people but under the surface we are really dependent on others. In forest ecosystems we find Hub trees/Mother Trees have a great impact on how the whole ecosystem thrives. When we are dependent on others, it makes it easier for us to hear and follow where God is calling us. Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful.
Remember to answer this week's question:
How do You make sure that Your impact is Greater than Yourself? #FaithandSciPod

5-1-22 - World Change Happens Outside the Comfortable!
Wednesday Apr 27, 2022
Wednesday Apr 27, 2022
The readings this week are Acts 9:1-6 (7-20), Psalm 30, Revelation 5:11-14, and John 21:1-19. This week we discuss how resistant we can be toward change. This means we often go back to the comfortable even when God is calling us into something greater that we have been equipped with. Are we willing to make the changes that would change the whole world for the better? Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful.
Remember to answer this week's question:
Where are you going to give up the comfortable to pursue where God is steering you? #FaithandSciPod
