PODCAST HIGHLIGHTS

 The Word of God

• His Word
• His life is in there
• His word impacts you when you surrender to Him

It's Like a Meal

• Only He can satisfy you
• It's like a good steak
• Go in humility to learn about Him

Why it's Important to Grow

• If you are not well nourished, you are not going to perform well
• Our bodies know when we are not filling them will good food
• In ministry it's important to be filled because we are called to serve
• It's important we know our identity in Christ
• You don't live by appetizers

Review Your Day

• Look back daily and see how you performed
• Do you have roots or are you shallow?

Evidence of the Gospel

• It's central in the scriptures
• The gospel tells us who God is
• We see it in the beginning, He is Holy
• He is merciful
• He is love because He saved us
• He is redeemer
• When we know who God is, we see who we are not

Conviction

• Conviction without repentance is nothing
• Submission without obedience is nothing
• We are called for His honour and glory
• If we don't see what God is and what we are, then we are wrong

Questions to Ask Yourself

• When you read the scripture, ask 'How do I see the gospel in this passage?'
• What did I Learn about God?
• How do I see the Cross in this?
• Who am I in light of this?
• How do I need to respond?

Thirst for the Living Water

• He sustains us
• Only Christ can satisfy us
• Understand when we say "Lord" we mean that we are a servant to Him
• Go to the water of life to be restored
• Be nourished by His word
• Sermon on the Mount - we are poor in spirit
• Spending time in the scriptures helps us to crave more and more

How to Grow

• What is an "aha moment"?
• Read scripture with someone
• Go deeper by looking at context, observation, meaning and application

Encouragement for Those Who Serve

• When you understand that God is your Lord then it changes everything when you serve
• We are servants of God
• Remember we are serving our fellow brothers and sisters in the Lord
• Know your master and look for Him
• We want people to see the gospel in action
