S2, Ep. 21: How Do We Hear God?

  

  

Picture this: you are alone in a quiet house. You head to your go to devotional spot. You close your eyes and start to pray…

Suddenly, bedlam erupts in your brain.

How do you still the noise? How can you hear God in the cacophony?

In this episode of Coffee With Jesus, our hosts dive into this question. A question they themselves sometimes struggle with. If you have trouble hearing God, or even talking to Him without all sorts of distractions and background noise, then you are not alone.

God’s not done with you yet. He’s working on you to mold you and shape you. We are all works in progress. Part of that progress is listening and hearing God’s voice. How do we hear God in a world full of noise?

Listen as our hosts share scriptural advice and practical tips to find that truth that is God’s voice among the many, many distractions and noises of this world.

S2, Ep. 20: Rain or Rockets, God is There

  

  

It happened right after breakfast. A thundering and loud BOOM shook a military base in Afghanistan. There was dust everywhere, like that of an enraged sandstorm. Shattered buildings, walls caved in, and a video revealed the story of how 1,500 pounds of high explosives threatened the lives of those in the military base.

But there was a burnt and twisted piece of metal from that vehicle-borne improvised explosive device that revealed another story. Our host kept that twisted metal piece as a reminder of God’s protection for him.

In this episode of Coffee With Jesus, Todd takes a deep breath and describes what happened that morning. Through his story, he reminds us that regardless of how big or small our problems may seem, God is there for us.

Listen to this episode to see how God carries us through the storms of this life. Do not let the storms of this life overwhelm you. Reach out to Him. Be encouraged to take your problems to God, whether big or small.

If someone asks you, “What is your Christian journey?” Would you have a response?

In this episode of Coffee With Jesus, our guest Sarah Tyler shares her story—a journey from walking in fear and bondage to living in hope and freedom. Sara narrates how she grew up in a controlling household, forbidden to have friends or go to church.

Something happened one night in 1969 that transformed her fear into a never-ending joy. What happened in her life that changed the course of her journey? Why does she live now with a loving urgency to share her journey of true joy, hope, and confidence everywhere she goes?

Listen to this episode to know what changed Sarah’s life. Through her story, you will see how God brought blessing in the midst of her struggles and filled her with peace. Be encouraged to learn that in the same way God clothed her with His presence, He can embrace you and take you by the hand.

S2, Ep. 18: Give it Up! (Lent 2022)

  

  

Did you find the plastic baby in the King Cake this year?

King Cakes, parades, parties and celebrations. People love to talk about Mardi Gras, but when it comes to Ash Wednesday and Lent, the conversation tends to die down. Penitence is kind of a downer. Sacrifice is hard. 

But neither have to be.

In this episode of “Coffee With Jesus,” our host has a slightly different take on Lent, than most people. The Bible tells us:

“To do what is right and just is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice.” ~Proverbs 21:3

Join us as our host shares the true purpose behind Lent, and explains his own slightly less orthodox approach to using this time to grow closer to our Father in Heaven. In “Give it Up!” you’ll hear both the successes and failures of our hosts personal journey.

While our current Lenten season may be close to over, or while Easter may have already passed, the lessons learned are valuable throughout the year. Listen and be encouraged. Then, develop your own strategy for growing in your walk.

S2, Ep. 17: How Do You Stop All-Consuming Anxiety?

  

  

The amount of constant decision-making we have to do every day is insane. It is aggravated by the things occurring in the world around us—things that we have no control of whatsoever. The worry we felt yesterday may have increased to stress today, and by tomorrow, anxiety may be taking over.

So, how can we stop anxiety when it shows up? We know God promised us peace beyond all understanding. Yet, how do we get there?

In this episode of Coffee With Jesus, our hosts Todd and Sara go over the blueprint to tackle anxiety when it shows up:

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:6-7)

Listen to this episode to learn a practical way to apply that verse to your day-to-day life. No problem is too big or too small for God to care about it. God cares about you.

So, do not be anxious; present your case to God through prayer and thanksgiving. He longs to hear your requests; let him help you.
