Hearing God's Voice
Episode 9 Show Notes:
Hearing God’s Voice
“Before we were even born, he gave us our destiny; that we would fulfill the plan of God who always accomplishes every purpose and plan in his heart.” - Ephesians 1:11 TPT
“For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God.” - Romans 8:14

“The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows His handiwork.” - Psalm 19:1
Key Points:
God speaks and communicates. If you’re a follower of Jesus, then you have within you the Holy Spirit – He leads and guides us – including speaking to us.
A part of what makes being a follower of Jesus so amazing is that we not only talk to God but He talks back! God speaks/communicates to us all the time.
Here are some of the ways the Lord speaks to us:
- Bible
- Through Others
- Circumstances
- Dreams
- Holy Spirit’s Still Small Voice
Your next steps:
- Believe you can hear God’s voice
- Practice hearing His voice

What Holds You Back from Being the Leader God Calls You to Be? Could it Be Unforgiveness?
Episode 8 Show Notes
What Holds You Back From Being The Leader God Calls You To Be? Could It Be Unforgiveness?
“Before we were even born, he gave us our destiny; that we would fulfill the plan of God who always accomplishes every purpose and plan in his heart.” - Ephesians 1:11 TPT
“Righteousness and Justice are the foundation of Your throne…” - Psalm 89:14`
“Blessed are the peacemakers…” - Matthew 5:9
“So if you are presenting a sacrifice at the altar in the Temple and you suddenly remember that someone has something against you, leave your sacrifice there at the altar. Go and be reconciled to that person. Then come and offer your sacrifice to God.” - Matthew 5:20-23
Key Takeaways:
Did you know that God moves at the speed of relationship?
Righteousness = Being “right with God and therefore committed to putting right all other relationships in life.”
Did you know that your refusal to be “righteous” can be a problem in your own relationship with God?
You can’t control other people – only you. But if you’re unwilling to forgive someone – you may be your own worst enemy. Your refusal to forgive may be a ball and chain to your being a success in God’s view.
Unforgiveness is the only poison YOU drink hoping the other guy will die!
Your next step:
- First thing to remember – is that there is always a choice to be made:
- Who do I want to be?
- God sent us to be powerful agents of transformative change. Do I choose to change the world – or just look like it?
- Is there anyone you cannot stand the thought of? That’s probably the person you need to be praying for. Ask God, if possible, to reconcile that relationship.
- Go before God and ask Him to help you be righteous.
How to Not Let Failure Defeat You!
Episode 7: How to Not Let Failure Defeat You!
“Each time he said, ‘My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.’ So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me. That’s why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong.” - 2 Cor. 12:9-10 NLT
“My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let the patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.” - James 1:2-4
“If we endure, we shall also reign with Him” - 2 Tim. 2:12
Key Takeaways:
Our reaction and attitude toward hard times comes down to identity. How do we view ourselves? Is it as an agent of transformative change sent by God with a purpose? How we respond as followers of Jesus to hardship should be countercultural and Christ-like.
What you believe about God is THE most important thing about you.
Crisis is a normal event on the road to your destiny. Failure should always be a teaching moment for you and others.
We are in training for reigning!
Next Steps:
What to do after you fail:
1. Decide to be the type of person that understands as followers of Jesus, we live within a different Kingdom context, at the next moment of crisis, BE THAT PERSON!
2. Declare it – put feet to action.
3. Thank and praise God for His love and His purpose coming to fruition.
4. Expect God to direct your every step.
Professor John Gibson: We need to talk about suicide
We need to talk about suicide prevention and postvention. In this episode we speak to Professor John Gibson (Emeritus Professor of Oral Medicine, University of Aberdeen) who describes his journey following the unexpected and devastating suicide of his 24 year old son Cameron in 2019. John was part way through walking Land’s End to John O’Groats to raise suicide awareness and funds as part of #onemanwalkingamilliontalking. John gives insight and advice as to what we can do as individuals, teams and society to prevent suicide and help those affected by it.

Episode 63: A Time to Be Bold and Courageous
Many of us play it safe when the organization requires bold action. In this episode, Bob’nJoyce take on the topic of leaning into discomfort and taking bold action to move a team or organization.
We share examples when we took bold action that worked and times we flopped, pivoted, and moved forward. In these volatile and uncertain times, playing it safe when bold action is required just doesn’t cut it.
We are back after a two-week hiatus so please come on in. Grab a snack. Welcome!

Don't believe everything that you perceive. | Apply proportional thinking to your life w/ Damon West
Imagine your perception if you were serving a life sentence? Damon West, author of "The Change Agent: How a former QB sentenced to life in prison transformed his world," could've looked at his life sentence and accepted it, but today he is a free man traveling all over the world with thought leaders like Jon Gordon.
Instead of getting through the day, West got from the day through proportional thinking.
Perception can lead you in the wrong direction. When things are bad, everything looks terrible, but when it's good, perception can lead to disaster because you get comfortable and complacent.
Today, I'll show you how West applied proportional thinking to free his life and how you can too.
