Set Apart Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

Leslie continues the He Is series with a short but powerful exploration of Christ as our Vine. As Leslie explains, when we fail to abide in Christ and yet still attempt to live out vibrant Christianity, we will either become legalistic or apathetic and cynical. That’s because we are going through the motions of Christianity with no power to actually live it out. This episode offers practical ways to avoid both legalism and spiritual apathy by learning how to cling to Jesus as our Life Source and let Him live His life in and through us.

Leslie continues the He Is series with an encouraging reminder that God is our Provider. Whether we have financial need, or need in any other area of our lives, God has promised to provide an abundance for every good work that He has called us to. If you have struggled with fear over not having your needs met, this episode will help you grasp this amazing aspect of who our God is. He is Jehovah Jireh - and "on the mountain of the Lord it will be provided!"

Leslie continues the He Is series with a message about finding our identity in Christ. When we know who we are in Christ, we won't make the mistake of seeking purpose and fulfillment in the approval of others or unhealthy relationships. We will be content instead of desperate, peaceful instead of impatient, and secure instead of self-focused. As Leslie shares in this episode, knowing our position in Christ is the key to stepping into the life He has called us to live. It has been said that we can’t really know who we are until we know who Jesus is. But we can’t stop there. We must know who He is and what our position is in Him.

This week, Leslie continues her Biblical Mindset series with this practical episode on a Truth-based approach to decision-making. All throughout Scripture it is clear that God desires to guide us, direct our paths, give us wisdom, and show us the way we should go. He desires to be intimately involved in the details of our daily lives. In this message, Leslie challenges us to allow God to be the Ruler of our daily lives and decisions, instead of trying to keep Him as a “back seat driver” and unpacks several biblical principles for hearing God’s voice and discerning His specific will for our lives.

This week Leslie continues her Biblical mindset series with fresh Biblical truths for surrendering our completely lives to Christ. Many of us hesitate to let Christ have access to our entire lives and futures. But when we know who Christ is and who we are IN CHRIST, surrendering fully to Him is the natural outflow. In this episode, Leslie reminds us that we will never be safer or more secure than when Christ has access to every part of our lives - our hopes, dreams and future. He is faithful, and His plans for us are good.

Leslie continues her Biblical Mindset series with this episode on developing a God-honoring approach to emotions. In our culture, our feelings are often placed on a high pedestal. It's easy to put more trust in our emotions than in the unchanging Truth and power of Christ. If we do not develop the habit of bringing our emotions under Christ’s control, we will be in danger of being led by feelings instead of God’s Spirit in our daily actions and life decisions. In this episode, Leslie offers practical ways to bring our emotions under Christ's control by re-setting our everyday processing, thinking and communication patterns according to a Biblical pattern.

This week Leslie continues her Biblical Mindset series as she unpacks a Biblical approach to personality and purpose. In a world so preoccupied with “finding our true destiny” and "discovering our uniqueness" it’s easy to become consumed with personal fulfillment and self-discovery. Questions such as “how am I unique?” and “what kind of life will most satisfy me?” often become the focal point of our daily choices and life decisions. But, as Leslie shares this week, God prescribes a completely different pattern for finding our life’s purpose and discovering true fulfillment.

Leslie continues her Biblical Mindset series with a practical episode on cultivating Biblical stillness in our daily lives. Ps 46:10 says: Be still and KNOW that I am God. This kind of stillness is not just calming down our minds, but it is also the action of learning to experientially know who He is and who He wants to be in our lives. In this message, Leslie contrasts Biblical stillness with the cultural ways of "de-stressing" offered by our culture, and shares two practical ways to cultivate true Biblical stillness in our daily lives.
