Episode 1: What Does “Make It Count” Mean?
We can probably all agree that there is no shortage of interesting and entertaining podcasts out there to listen to. So today I want to start by sharing my reason for creating this podcast and where I think it fits in this over-crowded market. Next we’ll answer the question, what does it mean to “make your life count?” I’ll introduce three key values which I believe are integral to making a difference with your life.
Why another podcast?
- There are good podcasts out there that are informative but not practical.
- They focus on current events and concepts that are interesting but don’t help us connect to God in a deeper way or make a difference in our life.
- The purpose of this podcast is to empower you and equip you with practical ways that you can make your life count.
What does it mean to “make your life count?”
Connecting to God:
- Many people think they can connect to God on their own terms.
- God has designed a specific way for us to connect to Him.
- Jesus is the only way that we can connect to God.
- Through Jesus, we connect to God for our salvation, but also to experience God’s power and presence.
Three values which are key to making a difference with your life:
- Live for Jesus
- You must understand who He is and give your life to Him.
- Where does Jesus fall on your list of priorities?
- What do you spend your time, energy, money, and thoughts on?
- Discover Your Purpose
- God created you in His image and for a unique purpose. (Ephesians 2:10) o Before you were even born, God prepared good works for you to do.
- You matter to God, His Church, and your community.
- Invest in People
- Who are you investing in today?
- Jesus built relationships and invested in people.
- As you empty your cup to pour into others, God will fill it back up.
