Spiritual Health & Growth
A NINE-PART Podcast Series from Lisa Whittle
Control Vs. Surrender
Have you ever taken matters into your own hands? Or, at least wished that you could? Lisa shares about David and his temptation to do just that in a very critical moment. His life was on the line and he made the decision to do one of the hardest things. Listen in to hear what that one thing was for David and just so happens to also be for us.
Am I Kingdom Usable?
The question we all ask ourselves at least once, if not multiple times in our life...what is my purpose? Lisa shares that our purpose has already been set and it is the same for each one of us. Ultimately, it will lead us to ask ourselves a question that's even better than the first.
Simplify Sharing Your Faith
How and when do you share the best news - the Gospel? We want the whole world to know, but what does that look like practically? Lisa reflects on the ways that she has watched her mom share her faith over the years. Settle in and listen as Lisa makes a case for why we should share our faith and how we do it. Get ready to share the best news that you've ever had!
Kingdom Focus
The events of the past few years have often had us struggling between self and kingdom focus. Lisa encourages us to take inventory of our own lives by asking ourselves two very important questions. And when we can answer those two questions, we will come to know that the joyous life is not the one that gains, but the one that gives.
Friendship With God
Have you ever considered being God's friend? It may be easy to think of him as Father or Lord, but friend? Lisa shares about what makes friendship with God is different than our earthly friends and how we can embrace that to have a thriving relationship with Him.
Perfect Vs. Pliable
David was known as "a man after God's own heart," and it would be easy to assume that meant that he was perfect. However, the Bible details many areas in which David wasn't perfect, so why was he so special to God? The answer - he was pliable. Listen in as Lisa shares the questions we should be asking ourselves to help us move more towards being moldable instead of striving for perfection.
Denial Vs. Development
King Saul had every opportunity to be used and molded by God, but he didn't always take advantage of it. In fact, he spent much of his reign in denial of God's truth. Lisa outlines two things that we tend to do when we have a difficult past, what those things have to do with denial, and how we can overcome them.
Behind the Scenes: What Derails Your Faith?
Most believers have experienced a loss or lack of faith at one time or another. The key to overcoming it or possibly preventing it in the future is knowing how it happened. Lisa gives us an equation that has the power to derail a wavering faith that we all need to hear.
Putting God First
Do you struggle with putting God first in your life? Or maybe you desire to do that but don't exactly know how to accomplish it. Lisa discusses why we need to put God first, how the Cycle of Complication plays into that, and gives practical tips for applying those ideas to our life.
