Have you noticed that Coffee With Jesus has been releasing episodes more frequently lately?  Have you wondered why that is?

Typically, during Lent, people fast or give up something to focus on spiritual nourishment and growing closer to God. Our host, Todd Uebele, shares some ideas to practice during this season and how he implemented those in the past two years. He also describes how his past lent commitments helped him find peace and faith growth.

This year he felt that he needed to do something different—acts of service. And he’s calling you to help him be accountable in this mission.

Listen to this episode to see how after prayerful seeking, Todd felt called to do acts of service by investing extra time and effort in the mission of Coffee with Jesus—spreading love, hope, comfort, and encouragement throughout the Body of Christ. How is he planning to do that? Listen to this episode and find out.

Lent is a great time focus on your relationship with the Lord. It is our hope and our prayer that during this Lenten season, you will grow ever closer to Him. How are you celebrating Lent this year?  Listen to this episode and then drop us an email and share your Lent story.

S3, Ep. 12: A Plea For Love

  

  

How did a star, a word, and a 10-year-old girl prompt a profound plea for love?

In this episode of Coffee With Jesus, our host, Sara van Driel discusses what it means to lead in love. If we are not grounded in love, then we cannot lead in love. Sara also provides Bible passages about being grounded in love and what that love looks like.

Sara then proceeds to provide practical ways to apply those passages to our life based on her recent experience managing the frustration and anger associated with moving to a new place. She talks about how leading with love dissipated frustration and brought opportunities for connection.

When providing an example of how love and action go together, Sara brings us back to Jesus.  Everything Jesus did, He did in love. So, her plea for love is this: lead with love, lead for love, and lead in love.

Listen to this episode and learn how Sara started pondering the meaning of leading in love and how a star, a word, and a 10-year-old girl inspired our host to share her heart with us with a profound plea for love.

S3, Ep. 11: Jesus Holds Everything Together

  

  

What do Mondays, Gorilla Tape, belts and Jesus all have in common?

That seems kind of random, doesn’t it? 

It may seem a little odd to use Gorilla Tape as an illustration. After all, Gorilla Tape can and does fail. Whereas Jesus will NEVER fail you. No matter how difficult the circumstances, no matter how relentless the storm, Jesus will hold you together.

Listen as our host shares how on a what appeared to be a typical Monday morning, when everything seemed to go wrong, Jesus held things together for him.

Know that Jesus is with you always. Jesus will help you always. Jesus will hold everything together.

S3, Ep. 10: Why is Newness So Exciting?

  

  

What comes to mind when you think about something new? Maybe the smell of opening a new book, the freshness of relief, or the anticipation of a new experience. Why is newness so exciting?

Yilda also deep dive into Isaiah 43:19: “See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.” 

Listen to this episode to discover how this certainty that no matter the circumstances, this understanding that God is at work doing something new brings joy, hope, restoration, and peace. Take delight as they share some songs that are powerful reminders of the constant presence of God and His faithfulness.

S3, Ep. 9: Who Do I Think I am?

  

  

How can someone with low self-image, low self-confidence…someone who does not consider himself a ‘good person’, possibly think he deserves to serve God?

Spoiler Alert: He doesn’t deserve to serve God.

Extra Spoiler Alert: Nobody deserves to serve God.

In this episode of Coffee With Jesus, our host shares some of his faults, demonstrates how while he does not consider himself a good person nor has a lot of charisma or self-esteem, yet somehow, for some reason, God has placed a call on his life.

Be encouraged and know that no matter what level your self-esteem may be at, and no matter how good or not good you consider yourself, God can use YOU. God has a plan for YOUR life. God can and will use you to further His Will.
