    Memorize Scripture (10 ways to grow spiritually)

    Over the past several episodes, we've talked about ways that will help you grow spiritually, deepen your intimacy with Jesus, and practically live the authentic Christian life.

    One great way to meditate upon the Word "day and night" (Psalm 1) is to memorize Scripture. When you hide God's Word in your heart it not only keeps your mind saturated within truth but it keeps your focus on Christ and it helps you live victorious over sin (see Psalm 119:9, 11).

    In this episode, we discuss how memorizing the Bible is a tremendous way that will help you grow spiritually … and Nathan gives several suggestions on how to get started.

    Know God's Faithfulness (10 ways to grow spiritually)

    Over the next several episodes, I want to talk about ten ways that will help you grow spiritually, deepen your intimacy with Jesus, and practically live the authentic Christian life.

    When we know God’s unchanging faithfulness, it enables us to live with greater trust, hope, and confidence in our God and His Word. In order for us to walk by faith (the action of belief), we must stand sure on the character and nature of God.

    In this episode, we discuss how knowing God’s faithfulness strengthens and deepens our faith, and in turn, grows our spiritual lives.

    Bible reading + study (10 ways to grow spiritually)

    Over the next several episodes, I want to talk about ten ways that will help you grow spiritually, deepen your intimacy with Jesus, and practically live the authentic Christian life.

    If you’ve spent any amount of time in church you’ve likely been told how important it is for believers to be reading and studying God’s Word … our problem is most of us don’t know how or where to start.

    In this episode, we talk about how reading and studying the Bible will grow and deepen your spiritual life … with a couple simple ideas to get started.

    Evangelism (10 Ways to Grow Spiritually)

    Over the next several episodes, I want to talk about ten ways that will help you grow spiritually, deepen your intimacy with Jesus, and practically live the authentic Christian life.

    The word "evangelism" often causes fear and trembling in many Christians … yet, evangelism (sharing the good news—the Gospel—of Jesus) can be a simple and powerful outlet to declare the hope of Christ that we have.

    In this episode, we explore two stories from Scripture that remind us that we don't have to be talented or qualified to evangelize, rather, we need to be willing and surrendered.

    Is it possible that you can be so full of truth that you can't help yourself from sharing the beauty, majesty, and power of Jesus and the Gospel? Yes!

    Living expectant of the Lord's return (10 ways to grow spiritually)

    Over the next several episodes, I want to talk about ten ways that will help you grow spiritually, deepen your intimacy with Jesus, and practically live the authentic Christian life.

    The modern church is passive, weak, and impure; yet, how much of that is a result of our lack of expectancy at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ?

    If you want to grow spiritually, you need to have "eternity stamped on your eyeballs" and live in light of the Lord's return.

    In this episode, we explore nine ways Scripture says we are to prepare for the second coming of Jesus Christ … and as such, what that means for how we live day-to-day.

    Prayer (10 ways to grow spiritually)

    Over the next several episodes, I want to talk about ten ways that will help you grow spiritually, deepen your intimacy with Jesus, and practically live the authentic Christian life.

    Most Christians know that prayer is important and that they should pray more … but how?

    One of the best ways to grow in our spiritual lives as believers is to spend intentional time with God in prayer.

    In this episode, Nathan gives practical helps on what it means to cultivate a habit of prayer so that we deepen in our intimacy and communion with God.

    Thanksgiving (10 ways to grow spiritually)

    Over the next several episodes, I want to talk about ten ways that will help you grow spiritually, deepen your intimacy with Jesus, and practically live the authentic Christian life.

    While Thanksgiving is a tremendous holiday in America, it is supposed to be the everyday lifestyle of the believer.

    Obedience (10 ways to grow spiritually)

    Over the next several episodes, I want to talk about ten ways that will help you grow spiritually, deepen your intimacy with Jesus, and practically live the authentic Christian life.

    If we desire to grow spiritually, we must learn to walk in obedience to God and His Word.

    It has been said that God will not lead us further than the last thing He has asked us to obey.

    In this episode, we explore the concept of obedience, how even Jesus was obedient to the Father, and how God enables us to obey Him and His Word.

    Worship (10 ways to grow spiritually)

    Over the next several episodes, I want to talk about ten ways that will help you grow spiritually, deepen your intimacy with Jesus, and practically live the authentic Christian life.

    In this first study of the series, we examine worship.

    Many of us immediately think of "singing" when we hear the word "worship." But worship is far more than hymns and praises—worship is a lifestyle that is based on beholding our God.

    Throughout the episode, we examine how beholding and the idea of kissing create a foundation for our understanding of worship, and then talk about three aspects of worship if we want to grow spiritually: the lifestyle, the sacrifice, and the totality of worship.

    Join Nathan in this exciting study as we explore how true worship can radically change our lives and press us all the deeper into Christ Jesus.

    Join me in the book of Ruth

    The little book of Ruth is one of my favorite books in the Old Testament. Though small, it packs a punch as it shares not only a beautiful romance, but more importantly, points to the ultimate romance of Christ and the Church.

    Over the next eight weeks, I am teaching through Ruth—giving insights into its historical and cultural context … but also showing how it applies to our lives and points us to Jesus Christ and the Cross. I invite you to join me by listening to the Daily Thunder Podcast where the teachings will be released (or watch the videos here).
