Discipleship
I am so passionate about discipleship, so this episode was a difficult one for me to prep for. There were just so many things I could say!! Thank you to my sweet friend who gave me Principles of Spiritual Growth by Miles Stanford. I will treasure that book. Go read it!
In this episode, I focused on the foundation of discipleship: acknowledging ourselves as sinful, picking up our cross, following Jesus to Calvary, and crucifying ourselves, so we can be raised to new life in Christ Jesus.
As always, reach out if you wanna chat!

Bryson does an incredible job of defining God's mission, applying missions to the lives of Christians, and examining important themes, relating to missions in the Bible and everyday life.
Scripture referenced:
Luke 10:2–3; Matthew 28:18–20; Revelation 7:9; Psalm 96:3

Catching Up
We're back!!! It's been a fruitful season for both of us, so Jules and I get together and discuss current reads and things the Lord is revealing to us.
We spend time on God's love, Jesus' return, and what it means that death has lost its sting.
The book Jules mentions is Seeing and Savoring Jesus Christ by John Piper! Highly recommend :)

Reaching London
Jules and I went to London for spring break with our local church, City Church Tally. It was a transformative, uplifting, charismatic time, and I'm so thankful for the opportunity to have seen such a wonderful city. Our eyes were opened to the need for international missions, so please enjoy this interview with Julia. Her thoughts are pretty much my own. :)
"The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field." Luke 10:2

Self-Righteousness
Matthew Hilliard & Julia Templeton join me to discuss self-righteousness, pride, and humility. They walk through the difference between self-righteousness and humility, how to walk in humility, and what our response should be when we recognize self-righteousness & pride within ourselves.

Enjoy the Slow Season
The Lord gives us a purpose, which is to honor and glorify Him in all that we do. That means more than just our work, classes, and accomplishments. It also means when cleaning the apartment or getting groceries. I know it's hard to believe that when our entire lives are defined by grades, resumes, and career building. All we want to do is set ourselves up for success, but the Lord is who establishes our ways. Not us. We aren't even promised tomorrow! So if life is slow right now, or you don't feel like what you're doing matters, check your heart. What do you care about more? Serving our Creator or building a name for yourself?
"But seek first the kingdom of God, and all these things will be added to you." Matthew 6:33
