Leaning In
This is the podcast from the week of the 21st of Jan 2024.
These are some of the key Scriptures from the message:
Mark 4:21-25 (NLT)
21 Then Jesus asked them, “Would anyone light a lamp and then put it under a basket or under a bed? Of course not! A lamp is placed on a stand, where its light will shine. 22 For everything that is hidden will eventually be brought into the open, and every secret will be brought to light. 23 Anyone with ears to hear should listen and understand.”
24 Then he added, “Pay close attention to what you hear. The closer you listen, the more understanding you will be given[a]—and you will receive even more. 25 To those who listen to my teaching, more understanding will be given. But for those who are not listening, even what little understanding they have will be taken away from them.”
Mark 4:15 (NLT)
15 The seed that fell on the footpath represents those who hear the message, only to have Satan come at once and take it away.
Galatians 5:1 (NLT)
5 So Christ has truly set us free. Now make sure that you stay free, and don’t get tied up again in slavery to the law.
1 Timothy 4:1-4 (NLT)
4 Now the Holy Spirit tells us clearly that in the last times some will turn away from the true faith; they will follow deceptive spirits and teachings that come from demons. 2 These people are hypocrites and liars, and their consciences are dead.[a] 3 They will say it is wrong to be married and wrong to eat certain foods. But God created those foods to be eaten with thanks by faithful people who know the truth. 4 Since everything God created is good, we should not reject any of it but receive it with thanks.
Mark 4:26-29, Hebrews 4:12-13, Isaiah 55:11, James 3-2-18, Mark 4:30-32,
Proverbs 4:20-22, John 6:63 all are taken from NLT version.
