    How to Love Well
    Jun 18 2021
    We know that we are perfectly protected under the love of God, but why do we so often feel exposed? We are going to explore this in this episode as we expose insecurity for what it is, a fear based reaction. The thing is, perfect love casts out all fear, so that leaves one thing, our acceptance of it. You are chosen, you are accepted, and you are loved.  Listen in and let the truth wash over you as we talk about how to love well by learning who we are in HIS love.    [00:01‌ ‌-‌ 04:42]‌ ‌Opening‌ ‌Segment‌  Welcome back! With me and Mariah Ballweber Our battle with insecurity  A fear based reaction  Perfect love casts out fear We are accepted   [04:43 ‌-‌ 15:43]‌ I’m Accepted… What am I Really Afraid Of? The real fears we face The thoughts that enter our head What happens when we allow insecurity  The reality is that God already approves of you How to answer the question of ‘holiness’ Our holiness is a byproduct of God’s love, not the source You are well received by the king Sometimes we slip out of the revelation of approval Condemnation never provokes you to do better “I’m still here, you didn’t miss it” Rejected vs. accepted  A word from our sponsor   [15:44 ‌-‌ 23:33]‌ ‌How to Love Well  Insecurity robs us of our love for others Love and fear are opposite, they don’t co-exist You don’t have to please everyone to love them  If you fear someone, do you really love them?

  • Unguarded and Perfectly Protected Pt. 2

    Unguarded and Perfectly Protected Pt. 2
    Jun 11 2021
    We are connectors by nature, and we were never created to have boundaries. But living in this fallen world, how do we navigate being unguarded? Today, we’re diving even deeper into this topic. Boundaries are good, but so much of it is motivated out of fear and self-protection. When God’s love lives inside of you, there is no room for fear, only confidence and an unconditional giving of yourself. So it’s time to enter God’s perfected love and live life as He intended.   Let’s jump right into the Word today and learn more about being unguarded and perfectly protected.    [00:01‌ ‌-‌ 05:44]‌ ‌Opening‌ ‌Segment‌  Welcome back! With me and Mariah Ballweber Going another level deeper into unguarded and perfectly protected God the perfect Father and protection  No protection in fear, only in love Revisiting the concept of Boundaries   [03:00 ‌-‌ 14:04]‌ ‌The Truth of Boundaries; Motivated Out of Fear, or Love Self-protection is fear not love Jesus’ example Doing what the Father does Breaking out of selfishness and into love Remember where our strength comes from You are made for connection and love Dropping the guards Opinions are off your hands Luke 6:30 Sowing the seed, reap the harvest A word from our sponsor   [14:05 ‌-‌ 24:20]‌ ‌Unguarded and Perfectly Protected  1 John 4:16-19 Fear of correction, punishment, or rejection Perfected Love  The difference between love and trust  Living as a connector  You are depositing Kingdom truth Koinonia  Look at your motivations Be careful about what instructs you  Watch out for anything that justifies selfishness Stay Hungry The example of John Boundaries are set on covenant friendship    [24:21 ‌-‌ 27:00]‌ Closing Segment You are accepted  Salvation prayer  Share and connect with us Links below  ‌  ‌ Tweetable‌ ‌Quotes:‌ ‌   “If we allow him to guard us, we are perfectly protected. Because he's my Father, He's Aba, and he's a much better father than any father I've ever met.” - Sandy James   “You're either motivated to do and say whatever you do and say, out of love, or out of fear. Love is the opposite of fear. Perfect love casts out fear.” - Sandy James   “I decided I won't live again because of my own selfishness and fear.

    Waiting is Acceleration
    May 28 2021
    We often find ourselves waiting for something. In doing so, do we wait actively or passively? Waiting does not equate to doing nothing, and some people fail to understand that.

Before the episode ends, we’ll also share some good news with you about our upcoming event!   Join us as we dive deeper into the true meaning of waiting upon the Lord and how waiting can lead to abundance, peace, and renewed strength.   [00:01‌ ‌-‌ 04:54]‌ ‌Opening‌ ‌Segment‌  Welcome back!
