This week we are kicking off week 2 of our brand new solo podcast series, this one based on a book I wrote a few years back entitled "Good News for a Woman's Heart: An Advent Devotional Study". Today we are focusing on week 2 of the study, which centers on living out of the love we have in Christ.
What I Chat about in Today’s Episode:
~An in-depth look at Mary's life and what we can learn from her example
~Why studying Mary's story is a great way to commemorate the Advent week of love
~How love, and not legalism, is the only thing that can motivate and lead to heart change
~Mary's background
~The amazing reality that Mary was theologically trained and knowledgeable in a culture when women typically were not; how God's kindness and grace shines forth in this reality - He was equipping her for His call on her life
~How Mary's theology was what enabled her to respond the way she did to the angel's announcement
~The comforting truth that the Lord equips and prepares us for any call He has for us
~Mary's response
~Mary's theology
~Mary's worship
~The difference between your worship of God only ever coming from a place of what you've received from Him and worshipping God simply for Who He is
~Becoming modern-day Marys
~What Mary's Song (Mary's Magnificat) teaches us about worship and theology
~The importance of living loved if we want to love well
~Understanding that we can walk forward in joy, rest, and trust no matter what we are facing in this season
~And more!
