Soli Deo GloriaEpisode 40: IdentityHi friends!! Identity is so important to the Lord. We are spiritually and physically identified. Identity is important because it is tied to your purpose and purpose fulfilled is done in power and authority. Matthew 16:13-19 is the best example of this! The enemy does not like the power we have in Christ, so he strategizes against our testimony and relationships. Good news is, we can overcome him! Listen to be empowered in your identity and to carry all boldness in exactly who God has made you to be.

Soli Deo GloriaEpisode 39: God with usHi friends!!! Merry Christmas! I wanted to focus on the real reason why we even have a holiday. It's because Jesus was born, a promise and prophecy fulfilled. His Name is Emmanuel, meaning, God with us. We can see Biblical examples of God being with us through Zaccheus and the woman at the well. He has fulfilled prophecy in being born in human nature and continues to keep His promise by being with us in the midst of our sin. No matter where you stand with God, He is with you. This holiday, the best gift is His presence.

Soli Deo GloriaEpisode 36: Modesty for everyone + contentmentHi friends!!! Modesty can be a tricky topic in the Christian community. But, it's also so simple when you just take the Word for what it is and understand the Father's heart for us. Modesty is a heart posture. From our identity in Christ, we find contentment, so we don't need to search this world. We are in the world but not of it, we are called to be set apart in every way. In the way we dress, speak, think, and act. Rest in contentment of who God is and all He has planned for you and has called...

Soli Deo GloriaEpisode 35: Sharon Goodenough- the call to ministryHi friends!!! Today, I have a special guest with me. Sharon Goodenough, AKA, my meme, is a vessel of the Lord.

Soli Deo GloriaEpisode 32: The body of ChristHi friends!!! The body of Christ is important for victory! We have dependence on God so you can have interdependence with other believers to bring victory! Our example of this is found in Exodus 17:8-13 where Moses goes to the top of a hill to lift up his staff so Joshua’s army, the Israelites, can defeat the Amalek army. Moses gets weary and has 2 friends named Aaron & Hur to help him out & hold his arm steady! Ephesians 4:15-16, Galatians 6:2, Mark 12:30-31, Deuteronomy 6:5;18, Joshua 22:5
