We know that God loves us, having demonstrated His love countless times, with the ultimate proof being the sacrifice of His only Son, Jesus Christ. But the real question is: do we love God? Many of us place many other things above Him. A fundamental aspect of being a Christian is encapsulated in Matthew 22:37, which calls us to love the Lord our God. We may know God and even like Him, but when it comes to truly loving Him, can we confidently say yes?
God often calls us by names that reflect the people we are destined to become, even when we struggle to see ourselves in that light. It can be difficult to have faith in our own transformation and to truly believe that we are living according to God's will. Despite the doubts and judgments of others based on our past actions, God sees us for who we are becoming, not who we once were.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/beingchristain/message

Sometimes we sin, and it pulls us so far from God. We feel like God is disappointed, and we feel guilty. In the midst of all these thoughts we start to feel like we are unforgivable. In this episode we discuss this feeling of guilt, and we walk through scripture in search for an answer to the question, "Can God Really Forgive Me?"--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/beingchristain/message

It’s hard to have faith and trust that God has a plan especially when everything around you is inferring that He doesn’t. Sometimes, like Peter, we have faith at the start and as we progress it diminishes. Other times, we don’t have any faith at all. What do we when we get to this point in our journey? Join Debby as we search for the answer in this episode--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/beingchristain/message
The Title says it all, I wanted to quit. This isn't an unusual feeling, we've all been at a place in our lives where we feel like the calling on our lives isn't real, or true. We just want to GIVE UP. But what do you do at this moment? Do you give in? In this episode, I share the story of how I felt in the I give up moment in my life. It's okay to want to quit but it's not okay to actually quit. Let's talk about it.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/beingchristain/message
In this episode, the focus question is If I have God's peace why am I so stressed? Many times we as young people, some students, some employees, some job owners, basically we as humans in general tend to stress about a lot of things. We are placed in situations that seem to have no solution, or that seem to never end. In this episode join Joan and me as we dive into the topic of God's peace. I hope this episode encourages you to step into the peace of God.
the verse of the week is Matthew 11:28-30

"You've got evidence you're the living proof that I keep promises and my word won't fail. You've got-" I was thinking of the song "Evidence by Naomi Raine," it is very close to my heart. Do you have a song that is close to your heart too? Does it make you emotional when you think about God and all His wonderful works? This is most likely a worship song. In this episode, Morvens Chery and I will explore the topic of Worship and why it is essential. Today's guest, Morvens Chery, is the host of the "Selah- Live study session." They happen during the school calendar, every Monday & Wednesday from 9 PM to 11 PM (EST). It is a space where Christians can connect, do homework, study, or relax while listening to a fire Christian playlist. It acts as a Christian Library and reminds us to always bring God into everything we do, even studying.

Every new year comes with new dreams, goals, and aspirations. Many Christians have a common goal, other than getting their dream body, this goal is to get closer to God and improve our relationship with Him.
