Season 3 - Restoring the Awe of God
When we meet Jesus for the first time, it is the most exhilarating feeling you can imagine. A rush of love over takes you and an overall amazement that God is who He says He is overwhelms your mind. Then something happens. If we aren't careful we can become so familiar with God's ways that we lose our amazement for who He is.

Side Bar - Walking in Victory after Experiencing Church Hurt
Recently I heard a sermon that cut me deep. The speaker said, "being offended is inevitable, living offended is a choice." Another way to frame that is, getting hurt by people is inevitable, but getting stuck in that hurt is a choice. God's intention is not for you to stay in a place of hurt, but for you to walk in victory as an overcomer. This episode discusses some of the effects church hurt can have on you and some tips on how to go free from the effects of hurt. Please subscribe if you haven't already! --- ...
