info_outline Liturgies for Hope – 60 Prayers for the Highs, the Lows, and Everything in Between :: [Episode173]The Wonder Podcast
We were thrilled to chat with Audrey Elledge and Elizabeth Moore about their new prayerbook, “Liturgies for Hope–60 Prayers for the Highs, the Lows, and Everything in Between.”We want to be their best friends. Let’s get that out there. They are full of JOY AND PURPOSE! This book started“as an act of defiance against fear.” They were great friends, living in NYC in March 2020 as Covid-19 swept the world. They watched as their friends, colleagues, fellow Believers, and neighbors fought isolation, sickness, and worry. God started to give them words of comfort and peace, and they wrote...
info_outline Prayer and Fasting with Maria Bower :: (Episode 172)The Wonder Podcast
Maria Bower shares her testimony of faith in this episode. All we can say is buckle up! God does a work in her heart and uses Chrissie in the process. Maria was searching, tired of religion, and wanted a relationship. And God answered her prayers. From her first prayer for direction and clarity to her everyday prayers, she unrelentingly trusts God. She doesn’t question His plan for her life or her family’s, and she walks confidently because of His love for her. She is a woman of deep faith. We loved hearing about Maria’s faith journey so much that we ran out of...
info_outlineStudying God’s word is our first love. We will talk about pretty much anything on this podcast, but sharing what God is teaching us through His word is our favorite.
For the next 4 episodes, we’ll be walking through Colossians.
Here are some fun facts:
- Colossians was most likely Paul’s first epistle from prison.
- Paul didn’t start the church at Colosse or visit there.
- Paul wrote this letter to encourage the Believers living there. They were growing in their faith, and he wanted to cheer them up.
The book of Colossians is meant to encourage us as we grow. Growth can hurt. Did you ever have “growing pains” as a child? Your mom most likely rubbed your legs and gave you some extra TLC before sending you back to bed with this admonishment, “you’ll be fine; go to sleep!” ☺ The church at Colosse was experiencing growing pains.
“It is not until a man finds his faith opposed and attacked that he really begins to think out the implications of that faith. It is not until the Church is confronted with some dangerous heresy that she begins to realize the riches and the wonder of orthodoxy.” -William Barclay
We hope you’ll grab a pen and your Bible and study Colossians with us! Let us know what you’re learning and how God speaks and works in your life!
