The Power of Forgiveness

The Power of Forgiveness
Jesus told us the importance of forgiving and spoke the words about forgiveness from the cross! One of the hardest things for us to do is to forgive and it’s not only required of us, but it’s one of the best gifts from The Lord! Jenny interviews Melanie Azarcon where we will hear a powerful testimony on forgiveness and the freedom it brings. Melanie suffered terrible abuse for years as a child and emotional abuse throughout her life from the one person she should have been able to trust. She helps us understand why Jesus tells us to forgive 70 times 7. Forgiveness doesn’t condone wrongdoing; it liberates us from carrying the burden of resentment.

When God Interrupts Our Plans

When God Interrupts Our Plans
“We can make our plans, but the LORD determines our steps.” Proverbs 16:9. Life is full of moments of interruptions or change. Sometimes things are going good and all of a sudden, life takes an unexpected turn. When Jesus walked the earth, we heard about how he stopped whenever he was “interrupted.” And what about Mary-the mother of Jesus, the disciples, Moses, Jonah, Gideon or Joseph, just to name a few. Their plans were certainly changed! Sometimes it aggravates us, but interruptions may be divinely placed in our life for a reason. Jenny's guest is Rob Patrick, Executive Director of Knoxville Area Project Access (KAPA). He’s here to talk about how God is always at work in your life, making things happen for you even when you don’t see it or expect it! It may be that God interrupts our plans to set us in a different direction.

Spiritual Warfare: The Battle Is Real
“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” Eph 6:12 Jenny’s guest Paul Bagai, Minister of Discipleship and Young Adults at First Baptist Knoxville is here to help us maneuver through the topic of “spiritual warfare.” We are daily assaulted by the enemy who seeks to “steal, kill and destroy” our lives, and sometimes we don’t even notice. Other times it is very evident and oppressing. First Peter 5:8 warns, “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.” Satan is trying to pull us away from God and is fighting to bring us back into captivity and strongholds. Ephesians 6:10-20 teaches us how to defend against spiritual warfare through the armor of God and how important it is to put it on daily. While planning this show for weeks, both Jenny and Paul experienced numerous bouts of spiritual warfare and setbacks. We knew this would be a powerful interview. They discuss spiritual warfare - what it is, how can we recognize it and - how do we face it!
