    In the Right Place Women

    In the Right Place Women

    Continuing with Women's History month, Laurie looks at two Bible heroes who where in the right place at the right time. One was a societal outcast, the other a devout worshipper of God. Both have life-changing encounters when their eyes are opened to truth. Going beyond the typical lessons of The Woman at the Well and Lydia, Laurie digs deep and finds inspiration for dropping everything for Christ.

    Shadows and Purpose Driven Trials

    Shadows and Purpose Driven Trials

    Today, Laurie discusses the state of our world from a heavenly perspective--knowing trials are what prepare us for the heavenly glories to come. By producing an outcome, Paul tells us that trials have purpose. (James tells us this, too in the first chapters of his book/letter)  -The amazing purpose Paul mentions is a weighted—heavy and oh so valuable—forever glory.

    Today's Headlines and Titus 2 - Wild Stuff

    Today's Headlines and Titus 2 - Wild Stuff

    With unbelievable headlines keeping us from truly tuning into what's happening around the world, it's time to face reality--the people of the world are in precarious situations. We must know that in this age of Grace, we are chosen to share the Word with a world that is falling apart.
    Looking at Titus 2, Laurie finds practical advice of how to live truth in an anti-truth era but also share this truth with billions of people in need.

    Song of Solomon and You - it's a thing

    Song of Solomon and You - it's a thing

    After a week of crazy headlines, Laurie found notes she wrote 11 years ago on the Song of Solomon. What timing! When you want to bang your head against the wall at the frustration of stupid in the world today, turn to the Song of Solomon and discover (or rediscover) the amazing freedom of passion Christ offers.

    The Real Nuclear Bomb is Deception

    The Real Nuclear Bomb is Deception

    God is at work and that is our hope. But deception ... or lies better said ... is at work as well. Today Laurie looks at Colossians 2:8 and how the warnings of God are not meant to be rules of a prison, but signs for us as we walk in freedom. The mother-ship of warnings, however, are the calls to not b deceived. Evidently, deception is the Nuclear bomb of Satan's tools and right now, it's seeping into everything.  
    We are at war with deception and that means, speaking up and making warrior sacrifices for love.

    A Slick Lie

    A Slick Lie
    The quote-un-quote Social Gospel today and how it sounds holy, hopeful, and oh, so yummy to our self righteousness, it is really a lie that opposes the faith of Christ's atoning death on the cross.

    Time for Truth

    Time for Truth

    Could we make 2024 the year of truth? Because truth doesn't belong to the person but is actually a person - Jesus Christ- it's time to speak out. In Jude's letter (Bible book), he admonishes his readers and all of us to contend for the faith for sexual perversion had seeped into the church. Is this true today? If you don't think so, then you may be in the same condition Laurie's dealt with: apathy and indifference. Jude outlines 7 calls to action for contending--Laurie encourages listeners to take these calls to action and practice the dying art of apologetics. Yes, you can. Defending the King is something every believer is called to do. You don't need a seminary degree to defend your Savior.2

    Delusion, God with Us, and a Dream

    Delusion, God with Us, and a Dream

    God is with us. What a powerful thought, that He, during times of immense trouble, the world in Chaos and the spirit of delusion seeping into minds all around us, is right beside us willingly guiding us through the crisis. He is good and this proves He can be trusted. And in trust, we find peace, not peace that the world cries for, but peace inside--the quiet voice of a Holy God with a plan.  And then ... the dream ... God and his plans don't stop, or take a ceasefire. He is relentless in His pursuit to take a Bride.

    The Great Awakening Comes - And it Ain't Woke

    The Great Awakening Comes - And it Ain't Woke

    Looking at a lesser-known prophetic Scripture, Laurie finds puzzle pieces that talk of timing, specifically a time when Israel awakens to the Messiah. Interesting turns unfold and the mention of the word .. (hold your breath--she's going to say that forbidden word)...rapture. Who knows - when ... well, God does and He's told us to be prepared, be a light, and be an encouraging voice about these things. We have our orders!

    What, Watch, Weather

    What, Watch, Weather

    Zechariah 9-14 hosts duel prophecies--one of which was fulfilled with the first coming of Christ. As nations line up against Israel, will we see this prophecy reach its second fulfillment in the second return of Christ.
    Maybe so.
    But as Christians, we're called to be aware, be watchful of what our God is doing in the world and how we are to battle through prayer and hope against the enemies of Israel and of our Savior.  
    So what in the world is happening today? Let's watch and see but weather the storm through eyes on the purposes of God.

    Abound in Hope

    Abound in Hope

    We could use some hope, right? Today Laurie looks at how this word gets passed over, or maybe overused.

Tune in and don't forget to like or share if you know someone who could use a little hope today.

    Prophecy and the War in Israel

    Prophecy and the War in Israel

    As we watch horrific events unfold, we can expect the hand of the Lord to move in mighty ways. We've been told. We've been warned. And if you're like Laurie, you're thinking about Ezekiel 38 and 39 and how when we see the fig tree begin to leaf, we know summer is near. So, as we see these heart-breaking events happen, we have hope despite what the enemy wants from you: fear. Join Laurie and take a look at how prophecy has given us the opportunity to know what's happening and what's ahead.

    Girl, Oh Yes You Can Take Part

    Great Commission work is not just for missionaries. It's for all of us. God's plan has always been for us to multiply and subdue for His glory and He's made it our choice to so. And there's lots ways to take part - go, give, pray, or share the news of what God is doing today with your own tribe. Laurie goes long on this one, so get a coffee and listen in. Divide it into two listening sessions if needed.  But know it's all very, very good news. Get motivated because He wants to dwell with us!
