1 John - Part2 :: [Episode 167]

Happy October and happy new podcast season of The Wonder Podcast!

We are so excited to be back and look forward to hearing from you! Chrissie read CELEBRATION OF DISCIPLINE by Richard J. Foster many years ago and loved it.  Then she joined friends and read it again.  Then she told Lisa to read it.  ☺ Then she suggested we podcast about it so here we are!

This book, y'all. With over two million copies sold, and counting, this book “has helped millions of seekers discover a richer spiritual life infused with joy, peace, and a deeper understanding of God.”

We will be discussing the 3 categories of disciplines over the next few weeks.  (Inward, Outward, and Corporate.) Today, we tackle the corporate disciplines – Confession, Guidance, Worship, and Celebration.  Every single discipline Foster covers is applicable to us and the overarching goal of His Lordship in our lives. 

We hope you’ll grab a copy of the book, start reading and listening, and join us on this journey toward a deeper, more dependent relationship with our great, glorious God. 

Thanks for joining us for this episode of The Wonder Podcast!

Airing – September 

Happy September and happy new podcast season of The Wonder Podcast! We are so excited to be back and look forward to hearing from you! Chrissie read CELEBRATION OF DISCIPLINE by Richard J.

We will be discussing the 3 categories of disciplines over the next few weeks.  (Inward, Outward, and Corporate.) Today, we tackle the inner disciplines – meditation, prayer, fasting, and study.  Every single discipline Foster covers is applicable to us and the overarching goal of His Lordship in our lives.

We are giddy for another season of The Wonder Podcast and extra giddy to be diving into a new book of the Bible. Esther! Join us as we walk through this book of twists and turns, (you really do feel like you’re at the theatre) with so many characters the reader can almost lose track!

 Did we mention DRAMA?

You can rest assured the Book of Esther is a full-on drama. Our main character, Queen Esther, shows resolve, commitment, discretion, and strength as she accepts the call of God in her life. Although God is never mentioned, you see His hand all through this book. It’s thrilling to see and recognize God’s plan and presence throughout each chapter, though He’s never mentioned by name.

So grab your Bible, and join us as we journey through the book of Esther, a woman used by God for “such a time as this.” Thanks for joining us for this episode of The Wonder Podcast!

We were thrilled to chat with Audrey Elledge and Elizabeth Moore about their new prayerbook, “Liturgies for Hope–60 Prayers for the Highs, the Lows, and Everything in Between.”We want to be their best friends. Let’s get that out there. They are full of JOY AND PURPOSE!

This book started“as an act of defiance against fear.” They were great friends, living in NYC in March 2020 as Covid-19 swept the world. They watched as their friends, colleagues, fellow Believers, and neighbors fought isolation, sickness, and worry. God started to give them words of comfort and peace, and they wrote them down. 

When we say the book is honest and holy, we mean it. There is a liturgy for anything and everything. If you’ve felt, hoped, or experienced it, there’s a prayer. And the best part is each liturgy is accompanied by the scripture that led them to write. This book is a marvelous ministry and will spur you on spiritually and meet you where you are.

Order the book on Amazon or Barnes and Noble, or you can hear them read it on Audible! Get your copy today!

Maria Bower shares her testimony of faith in this episode. All we can say is buckle up! God does a work in her heart and uses Chrissie in the process. Maria was searching, tired of religion, and wanted a relationship. And God answered her prayers.

From her first prayer for direction and clarity to her everyday prayers, she unrelentingly trusts God. She doesn’t question His plan for her life or her family’s, and she walks confidently because of His love for her. She is a woman of deep faith.

We loved hearing about Maria’s faith journey so much that we ran out of time! But she wanted to ensure our listeners were reminded of two things: Maria reminds us NOT to get discouraged in our daily bible reading. No time to read? Then listen!

God doesn’t want to guilt us into spending time with Him. As a desire of our heart, we want to spend time with Him, and sometimes listening to His word in the car, on a walk, or at home is the best way to “hear” from Him! She also reminds us not to lean on our own understanding. We’ll never see the whole picture as God does, so we’ll never understand everything that happens in this world.

Rest in Him today!
