New Year, Now What…?! (When the New Year Feels like the Same Old) with Elyse Murphy

Tuesday, January 10, 2023 • Duration 33:08

Are you a week into the new year and already feeling stuck in the rut of 2022? We love to set new goals, new missions, new resolutions — but why do often we lose steam so quickly? In this episode Elyse gives the pep talk we need to kick off 2023 in the right direction and avoid falling into the trap of overrated “new year, new me” mindsets that leave us feeling more disappointed than inspired by year’s end. In this episode we’ll talk through our obsession with chasing the new yet our inability to recognize when it arrives in an unexpected package (as God often does). Elyse encourages us to vet our old and narrow thinking and sincerely open our hands to the new things God’s doing on His terms - not ours. With these powerful perspective shifts, we can set our heart and mind on Him and take on this new year with the wind at our back.

MINISODE: It's the Most Exposing Time of the Year

Thursday, December 22, 2022 • Duration 22:23

It's no secret that Christmastime can be a mixed up feeling. Instead of "the most wonderful time of the year" it often feels more like "the most exposing time of the year". We often chase to close the gap between reality and expectation of the Christmas season - but we in turn cover up the truth of how we feel and what our soul needs. Elyse boldly declares that that exposure is not a bad thing, just the cue that we need to align with God to be there for us whether we finish the year soft or strong. Elyse dives into the story of Mary at the birth of Jesus exemplifies this exact experience - and what we can learn about having the courage to respond to God with belief outside the reality of our circumstances. It's not a dead end - but a re-routing from God about how to align our expectations with God's will for our lives. This episode will help you embrace the necessary yet messy parts of the process, and embracing hope in the midst of it. From LightWorkers, Elyse and family, Merry Christmas everyone.

Have We Been Loving People Wrong? with Pastor Choco De Jesús

Season 1 · Episode 13

Tuesday, December 13, 2022 • Duration 41:20

Why are Christians often known more for who they hate than who they love? What does it practically look like to love EVERYONE - even the people you can't stand? In a world becoming more polarized by the day - the idea of loving everyone feels more like a fantasty than reality. Pastor Choco de Jesús- Founding Pastor of New Life Church and General Treasurer of the Assemblies of God passionately shares his guide to loving well in spite of our sometimes radical differences in values and perspectives. Through his book, “Love Them Anyway” he seeks to answer the prevailing question in our culture, “what should we do with so much racial tension and political unrest?” His answer is that we need to love people the way God does - and that kind of "in spite of" love is contagious. In the midst of cancel culture fueled by quick offense - Pastor Choco emphasizes that we don't have to surrender our convictions in order to affirm the humanity in others. You don't have to understand or agree to empathize and care. Be encouraged to love like God does.
