Wednesday Word: “God’s Word Will Work For Itself”- Pastor Kim Owens

This Wednesday Word is something else from Pastor Kim Owens of Fresh Start Church in Peoria, AZ, especially at a time when there’s a good bit of inspirational preaching going on in the pulpit. The Bible is inspirational and uplifting, but it’s also a Word of correction and rebuke when needed. And we need to hear all of that.

That’s what Pastor Owens is getting at in this clip, and she didn’t hold anything back!

Wednesday Word: “Trust that God is a Good God”-Chrystal Evans Hurst

This Wednesday Word from Christian author Chrystal Evans Hurst is a reminder that we can indeed trust God with our lives, knowing that He is not trying to set us up for ultimate failure.

We also need to practice gratitude for what we have been blessed with, instead of focusing so much on what we don’t have, knowing that God has a reason for everything. We have to trust that God is indeed a good God Who knows exactly what He’s doing, even when we don’t understand.

Wednesday Word: “Prayer Is To Develop Intimacy with God”-Cliffe Knechtle

Some days ago, I saw this video circulating on my Facebook timeline from Cliffe Knechtle. He is the Senior Pastor of Grace Community Church in New Canaan, CT, as well as the host and founder of the “Give Me an Answer” ministry. He alongside son Stuart Knechtle, has thought-provoking discussions with others surrounding faith and doubts.

While on a college campus (much of his engagement has been with students), Cliffe engaged with a young woman who made an interesting point: If God is all-knowing, then why do we need to pray? That’s a valid question because God does already know the things on our minds and hearts. But our prayers are more than for God to grant what we want. Ultimately, He wants to hear from and connect with US!

Worship Song: “I Can Only Imagine”-J. Michael Finley

I had to share this Worship Song with y’all today. Several of us know “I Can Only Imagine.” This version was sung by J. Michael Finley, who played Bart Millard in the Christian film of the same name!

Now the original version of “I Can Only Imagine” was written by Bart and his Christian group MercyMe. Gospel singer Tamela Mann also has her own beautiful cover as well. But this one is my personal favorite!
