About this Episode
While the phrase "This too shall pass" might often bring comfort to a hurting person, it falls short of being a guiding principle for life. In this teaching, the hearer is pointed from the temporal world of things that pass away to that of God's kingdom; filled with eternal things that will never pass away.

Mantra #7 - GOD MOVES IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS

Mantra #8 - GOD SAID IT, I BELIEVE IT, THAT SETTLES IT!
Chanting this phrase may seem boldly encouraging for some but it communicates a shallow close-mindedness to others.

Mantra #9 - SPARE THE ROD SPOIL THE CHILD
Important child raising keys are communicated in this relevant message about disciplining, discipling, maturing and restoring our children; as well as the need for us to realize that our own walk with God is setting an example for them to follow.
