About Well for Goodness Sake - THE 4:8 LIFE

Welcome to Well for Goodness Sake, a PODCAST about keeping it real through real-life talks from all walks of life. Whether or not you are a parent, a student, a young person, married or single, or maybe you’re just now recovering from a broken relationship, this is a SAFE SPACE for you to be able to come and relax, to listen, and to find encouragement as well as that desired and relatable connection with other people who might be in the same boat you’re in right now. I am here to laugh with you, to love on you, and encourage your heart with all of mine – as much as God gives me the words to do so. We are simply searching the heart of God by getting in His presence, diving into His word, and pursuing THE 4:8 LIFE. What is THE 4:8 LIFE? Well, that’s what we are here to talk about. It begins by applying my life verse, Philippians 4:8, and then by getting in God’s presence FIRST AND DAILY and applying practical truths found in Scripture to find that perfect peace, identity, and purpose. "Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things." – Philippians 4:8 YOU ARE NOT ALONE! Life is full of chaos, and through all of the ups and downs we experience in life, relationships, and circumstances, often outside of our ability to alter or control, we need God’s mercy and grace. We need to laugh and cry, rest and then push forward, and find that peace by embracing God’s infinite purpose for each of us. We do this by focusing on what is true and on things worthy of our time: HIS LOVE for us! Do you know how much God loves you? Do you really know? WELCOME to this SAFE SPACE. I am so glad you’re here with me. I love you! And it's all because of Him, Jo

   #30 “66 DAYS THROUGH THE BIBLE BOOKS” – I SAMUEL

   #30 (S2-E9) Welcome to Episode 9 of 66 DAYS THROUGH THE BIBLE BOOKS on the Well for Goodness Sake – THE 4:8 LIFE PODCAST, with author-podcaster, Jesus follower, wife, and mother, Jo Fuenzalida. 66 DAYS THROUGH THE BIBLE BOOKS is a bible study of each book of the bible in chronological order. On today’s episode, an exciting walk through the entire BOOK OF FIRST SAMUEL! We take a close look at Israel's leadership transition from the judges to the monarchy, and we see God electing and raising kings despite human failure, jealousy, and evil. This is the book of transitions, with three prominent figures, and we learn more about God's faithfulness. Plus, we cover key verses, one major focal point, and one truth about God’s love from a favorite book and author! Welcome to the SAFE SPACE. Listen and be encouraged that you are not alone. KEY VERSES I Samuel 15:23 "Because you have rejected the word of the LORD, He also has rejected you from being king.” I Samuel 15:22 "Then Samuel said: 'Has the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed than the fat of rams.” KEY FOCAL POINTS God is not our trophy. God opposes the proud and exalts the humble. We need to remain humble and obedient if we want to experience God’s covenant blessing. Saul’s story teaches us that it is crucial to reflect on our own character flaws and how they affect us and the people around us. David’s story teaches us that despite human evil, we have hope in God. God is the faithful provider.
