    Living a Prayerful Life with Megan Hill

    Do you ever find yourself subconsciously crying out to God in a desperate moment? Maybe it's a "Lord, help me" prayer in a time of need, or a "Jesus, come quickly" when your heart is heavy. Sometimes life brings us to the end of ourselves in a way that reminds our hearts to call out to God. As we reach the end of ourselves we realize, to whom else can we go (John 6:68)? He is the One who is sovereign, able, good, and kind. In this week's conversation with Megan Hill, Hunter and Megan talk about how vital prayer is to the life of the Christian.

    Looking to Christ with Whitney Newby

    Have you ever felt like you have nothing left…and yet you’re being asked to give more? Sometimes this place of utter depletion and emptiness can feel scary, but it is actually here that we can lift our eyes to Jesus and find so much more of God’s goodness, strength, and nearness. In this week’s episode, Hunter chats with Whitney Newby about how we can orient our gaze to Christ in the midst of the various challenges of life. We pray this episode encourages you—wherever you are and whatever you’re walking through—and presses you to lean on the Lord for strength.

    The Remedy for Discontentment with Jill Atogwe

    In this week’s episode with Jill Atogwe, Hunter and Jill talk about our natural tendency toward discontent, and how even our areas of deficiency and lack can press us more into Jesus. We pray this episode reminds you that even in—perhaps especially in—those places where you feel most weak and humbled, there is space for growth and intimacy with God.

     “Is God really good?” Have you ever found yourself asking this question? When the diagnosis comes back, when everything crashes down, when the other shoe drops… In the midst of suffering, if you listen to your feelings and to the world, the answer to that question is “No.” But, as Jill reminded us in this week’s episode, “if you open the Word, you will see the One that God loved most—himself—he allowed to live a life of suffering and to die a death of the ultimate untouchable suffering for us to live with him in eternity forever.”

    Sister, in your difficulty remember what is true: God is good and he can only do good (Psalm 119:68). You can trust him.

    Bonus: The Book of Revelation with Jen Wilkin

    In this week’s episode with Jen Wilkin, we talk about the beauty of an oft-misunderstood and feared book of the Bible: Revelation. Jen reminds us that although the book is filled with symbols and images that might first be hard to understand, that it actually pulls from the rest of Scripture and tells us what we already know! That Jesus is coming back to dwell with his people forever. Jen reminds us that the theme of this book is not condemnation, but comfort. We pray this episode leads you to praise as you remember who is seated on the throne of heaven.

    Doxological Psalms: 19, 33, 66, 67, 95, 100, 103, 104, 111, 113, 114, 117

    DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

    1. What is something you can praise God for right now, in this very moment?
    2. What are some ways you could incorporate praise into the everyday moments of your days? Brushing your teeth to a song of praise? Praising God for his character when you get to a red light? Singing a simple doxology as you pray over your dinner?
    3. Think about a specific circumstance, relationship, decision, or grief that is causing you suffering or distress. Now spend a minute thinking about your future eternal reality—the reality that if you are in Christ, you WILL be with him forever, where there will be no more crying, no more pain, no more death. How does thinking about that reality change the lens through which you see your current circumstance?
    4. How might meditating on God’s character as revealed in his Word lead you to praise? If you’re struggling with where to start, here are a few passages that point to God's glory: John 1, Hebrews 1, Isaiah 6, Revelation 21.

    In this week’s episode, we’re looking at the thanksgiving psalms, which are those psalms that express gratitude to God for who he is or what he has done. These psalms remind us of God’s character, give us language for our praise, and help us to give thanks to God, even if our current season is not what we hoped. We pray this episode encourages you to look to God in faith and to give thanks to God for who he is, how he has saved you, and what he has accomplished in Christ!

    In this week’s episode, we’re looking at the liturgical psalms, which are the psalms that lend themselves most easily to public worship in a community gathering.

We pray that this episode reminds you of the truth of God’s character and that it compels you to join hands with your brothers and sisters in the body of Christ as you offer worship and praise to the Lord together.
