“I haven’t believed enough that he is enough.” That’s what Br. Angelo says as a guest on this episode, and how true is it for each of us? Even when we experience God’s goodness, repeatedly and in big and small ways, it can be a struggle to keep believing that God is enough. He is LORD. He is enough, and we only have to give him permission to work. It sounds simple, but it can be tough when we’ve faced rejection in other areas of our lives. How do we believe? How do we find the courage and take the risk — to learn he always shows up? Surrender to the Lordship of Jesus. It can be a struggle, but while we might have many struggles, this is the right one.

Stay Where the Grace Is
Life is difficult — our life is a valley of tears. And the ability to remain in faith, hope, and love with God as Father is impossible if we do it ourselves. If we want to be able to experience God’s closeness and his presence and to cry out “Abba, Father” in the midst of our …

Rebuild to Reconsecrate
What does restoration or reconsecration look like? Why do we need it? Restoration and reconsecration mean finding our lives again in Christ and putting Jesus at the center of our lives.

Jesus’s Favorite Things: Lowliness
What does lowliness mean to you and God? The experience of lowliness can sometimes be what we dislike about ourselves. These are times when we’re not doing great or not rich or attractive—these are usually the parts we reject about ourselves. But part of the mystery is that in this lowliness, God mainly manifests His love for us and reveals His heart for us, and Jesus embodies this kind of lowliness. In this…
