Podcast: Play in new window
Do you struggle with fear, letting your thoughts get away from you, or not taking advantage of His power? Do you feel like you give up too easily and that there may be more to the Christian walk than you’ve tapped into? Do you ever feel like you are trying so hard to do the right thing but when hard seasons hit, you get knocked off your feet more often than not? If you answered yes to any of these questions, know you are not alone.
In this podcast, Lisa Whittle and I talk about how to remain spiritually strong and tap into the resources we have in Christ all of the time, even during difficult circumstances. We talk about what it means to rise to your spiritual potential instead of living below it, what it means to admit when you are not strong, and what it means to be “Jesus Strong” instead. The good news? You don’t have to start brave to be strong and stay that way. In her book, Put Your Warrior Boots On, Lisa issues a rally cry to her Christian brothers and sisters to say simply “live better.”
This chat is about not settling for a panicked life and being prepared for a “Jesus Strong” life. While we know that our best life is to come, the Bible tells us the way we can live well now! We don’t have to accept an anxious, fearful way of living. We can prepare for hard times by fortifying our minds. Lisa Whittle shares truths on today’s podcast that will lead you to access the power of Christ and what He’s already given you to move forward in His strength.
