Feels: Part Two

08/11/24 • 52 min

This message invites us to explore the profound truth that God knows us better than we know ourselves. It challenges us to confront why we often hide parts of our lives from Him, despite His omniscience. The story of Elijah fleeing from Jezebel (1 Kings 19) serves as a powerful illustration of how even great prophets can succumb to fear and isolation. God's gentle question to Elijah, 'What are you doing here?' isn't meant to accuse, but to prompt self-reflection. We're encouraged to listen for God's 'still small voice' in the quiet moments of our lives, rather than expecting dramatic interventions. This teaches us that intimacy with God often grows in stillness and vulnerability, not in the whirlwind of activity or emotion.EPISODE CREDITS: Produced, edited and mixed by Shera Dye.

Feels: Part One

In this powerful message, we explore the story of Elijah from 1 Kings 19, focusing on how we can thrive through life's triggers. We're reminded that life is full of ups and downs, and the Bible serves as a roadmap for navigating these challenges. Elijah's journey teaches us that even spiritual giants face moments of fear and doubt. The message emphasizes that our triggers often stem from unhealed pain or trauma, generating fear-based reactions. We're encouraged to find balance between grace and truth, avoiding the extremes of coddling or becoming overly militant. By addressing our deep-seated issues and staying awake to God's presence, we can overcome our triggers and live out our calling more fully.EPISODE CREDITS: Produced, edited and mixed by Shera Dye.
