July 21, 2018 04:00 - 10 minutes - 14.2 MBThis month, in Children's Church, we are starting a new series on faith.

Your children will discover that faith pleases God.
God cares as much about your desire for a new car as a starving child’s desire for food | Word Training
July 20, 2018 21:42 - 9 minutes - 13 MBAs believers, we have to remove the limits on our mind to fully receive all of the things we desire from God. One limit we need to remove is the idea that God has a priority system ranking some desires above others. The reality is that the unlimited power of God does not prioritize needs or desires. He cares as much about your desire for a new car as a starving child's desire for food. In today's word training, we examine this concept in detail to help you expand your thinking and increase y...
Faith requires a mind free of limits | Faith Chat
July 19, 2018 04:00 - 3 minutes - 4.63 MBWe are born into the world without knowing any limitations. As kids, we believe that we can do anything, be anything, and get anything we want. However, as we grow older, we learn limitations from negative situations and the words parents and teachers speak to us. These words have imprisoned our minds with limits, which has nullified the power of our faith to receive all the things we desire. Thus, to reverse this effect, we have to consistently renew our minds with the word of God, so our...
To find success, stop lying to yourself about why you want success | Word Training
July 18, 2018 04:00 - 12 minutes - 15.7 MBIf you ask most Christians why they want success in business, they'll say something like, "to make a lot of money, so I can extend the kingdom of God." This is a noble motivation, but most Christians who say this are lying to themselves, because they believe God would not approve of their true motive. Here's the problem: when you lie to yourself about why you want success, you won't be successful. Success is built on true motives. And guess what, if your true motive is to make a lot of money...
You cannot waste money on your family or calling | Faith Chat
July 17, 2018 04:00 - 7 minutes - 10.8 MB'Thou shall not waste money' is not a commandment anywhere in the Bible. However, as believers and seeing the way we treat money, you would think such a commandment exists. We are always trying to save a dollar, stressing over spending too much, or rationalizing why we cannot or should not afford something. God is showing me and wants me to share with you that we cannot waste money on our family or calling. Listen to today's faith chat and learn more about this idea.
Neither opened nor closed doors indicates the will of God for your life | Word Training
July 16, 2018 04:00 - 12 minutes - 17.8 MBBelievers will often say, "If God wants me to go this way, then He will open a door of opportunity," or, "this door closed because God has something better for me." God can open and close doors of opportunity, but the state of the door (aka opportunity) doesn't indicate the will of God for your life. Watching doors open and close can mislead you and put you in a state of confusion. Listen to today's Word Training to learn more about this concept.
Don't lower your desires to meet your finances | Faith Chat
July 14, 2018 18:39 - 7 minutes - 11 MBA major mind shift God is developing in me is using my faith to increase my finances to meet my desires rather than lowering my desires to meet my current finances. This is a critical mind renewal to grab hold of, for both you and me. If we think too small and lower our desires, then we will never achieve all God has for us nor experience and enjoy all the things God desires for us to do and have in this life. Learn more about this concept in today's faith chat.

Faith (not time) controls your harvest | Faith Chat
July 03, 2018 19:09 - 4 minutes - 6.2 MBThere is a misconception among Christians that if we sow a financial seed and just wait long enough, then we will receive a financial harvest. Well, that's not quite true, because faith (not time) controls your harvest. Without faith, you could end up waiting indefinitely. If you have been waiting a long time and have not received a harvest on your seeds sown, then check your faith not your watch. Listen to today's faith chat to learn more about this concept.

Copying success is dangerous to your success | Faith Chat
June 29, 2018 23:03 - 3 minutes - 3.83 MBWhen we see someone achieving great success in a particular area, it's tempting to copy the way they got there. After all, if they were successful that way, why won't we be too? It does not help that the internet is full of online courses and coaching packages from gurus teaching us their blueprints to success. But here is the thing. God has given all of us a unique path to becoming successful. Following others' paths to success moves you away from the anointed way God has given you. This me...

A few basic principles to interpret dreams and visions | Word Training
June 25, 2018 04:00 - 13 minutes - 18.8 MBGod speaks to us mainly through His written word. However, He is also in the business of giving us dreams and/or visions as part of our toolkit for direction for our entrepreneurial calling.

In today's podcast I am providing a few basic principles to interpret dreams and visions. This is by no means a complete study on the topic, but it is a great starting point.

June 21, 2018 23:14 - 6 minutes - 8.35 MBOne of the hardest mental shifts I had to make, moving from business to ministry, was asking people to sow into my ministry. I was used to asking people to buy something from me but not asking people to give.

However, God taught me His heart on funding ministry and helped me remove my pride and fear. If you are called to start a ministry and need some gu...

You may be thinking that this is a lack of faith, but in many cases this is not true. Be open to God leading you to opportunities that make money outside of your vision, so you and your vision can surv...
The goal is not to be somewhere every Sunday | Faith Chat

Criticizing another Christian can derail your success | Word Training
June 07, 2018 17:54 - 10 minutes - 14.3 MBIt is very tempting to criticize another Christian when we see them doing something that goes against our understanding of scripture.

God's words in the Bible are seeds | Word Trainings
May 21, 2018 04:00 - 10 minutes - 13.9 MBGod's words in the Bible are powerless if they are not planted and watered in your heart. For example, an apple seed is useless until it is planted in the ground and watered properly with rain, then it can produce an apple tree.
