Enduring Christianity
Discussing the joys AND challenges of sincerely following Jesus. Salvation in Jesus is a gift, but Jesus warns us of the temptations that can lure us away. Jesus said "Heaven and Earth will pass away, but my word endures forever." and "Only those who endure until the end will be saved." If your goal is ONLY to get to heaven then maybe despite your good intentions you're heading in the wrong direction? Maybe the direction is faithfully FOLLOWING Jesus and the result is Him? No, this is not a works based podcast! No, this is not an, "I go to Heaven because I earned it." This is a conversation about loving Jesus because he deserves my all.

A New Creation
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!" (2 Corinthians 5:17)
In this episode we speak with Katie, who shares her testimony of Christ saving her from a life of anger and substance abuse. In grade school, anger entered into her life when her parents divorced, then drugs became a way of escaping her reality by the time middle school hit. Her mother prayed and pleaded for God to save her from the direction she was heading in finally came true after many years of hard decisions.
Katie's life went in many directions, but eventually after the death of a friend, who overdosed, she finally gave into God being the answer.
We hope you take the time to listen in as Katie shares a very personal journey in her life. A journey that many could wish to forever hide, but she shares openly giving all the glory to God for making her into a new creation in Christ.
"And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit." (2 Corinthians 3:18)
