Aside from building a habit of reading the Bible, what books are best for new Christians? This was a huge learning curve for me. So in the spirit of summer reading I've put together a list of my 5 favorite books for believers. We also talk about why it's a good thing that where you start in your believer journey with teachers and authors isn't where you'll end up. I share one of my stories about that in the show notes. Go check that out while you listen along.

[covered in prayer] Praying for Unsaved Friends and Loved Ones

In this episode, let's pray for our unsaved friends, family, and loved ones. Sometimes the Holy Spirit really presses on me to stop, drop, and pray for someone specific. I'm sure I'm not alone in this. So, let's pray together for the poeple in our lives who don't know the peace, joy, and grace of Jesus (yet). Let's lift our prayers up to the Lord today and focus on the miracle of salvation.

giving up comforts for a meaningful Lent

In this episode we talk about what will feel meaningful to give up this Lent, how to find the right balance for yourself (not under or over-doing your commitments), and ideas and encouragements for how to let go of comforts to cultivate a more good and holy posture toward the Lord this season. I hope it blesses you.

[covered in prayer] Prayer for Spiritual Protection + Coming into Agreement with Your Identity in Christ

We're starting a new thing on the pod. At the beginning of every month we'll have one episode dedicated to praying over you and your month. This month I pray for your covering and protection from spiritual warfare, for your Lent season to be blessed, and for you to come into agreement with who you are through your identity in Christ. I hope this prayer supports you. If you know someone in your life who could use this prayer please pass it along to them. Scripture references: Psalm 91 and 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24
