In today's episode Terry unpacks two stories of absolute obedience from Acts 9 and 10.

We see Ananias who literally made a decision to go visit Saul knowing that he might lose his life. Sacrifice is sometimes asked of us as we obey! And, God's direction may frighten us. It's okay to ask for clarification, but once you have it, act! Do what God has asked you to do.

Direction from God often comes unexpectedly. It may cause us to change direction. Saul was asked to change his plans and also his life purpose. Peter changed his thoughts and turned away from what he had been taught....all because God instructed him.

When God speaks it can be an answer to prayer, as we see with Cornelius the centurion. So, keep praying! Cornelius saw unbelievable outcomes as a result of his prayers.

What is God saying to you today? Are you listening? That's the first part. Once you hear the next step is to obey. Take action and watch what God does with your obedience!

Whether you have been in church your whole life or you are new to this church thing, “Being Known” will give you an opportunity to experience God personally, in a fresh, new way. And, in the process of knowing Him, come to know more of who you are as His child.

Each week we will focus our attention on different attributes of God and then utilize painting to express how we are experiencing this in our relationship with Him. For more details go to.... https://www.illuminatethepath.com/workshop

In today's episode, Terry takes one verse from each chapter of the Bible and conducts an experiment to see if there is a thru-story. What she finds is that there is a pattern that repeats throughout the Bible.

Throughout all of recorded history, man continues to cycle through this pattern:

1. Death / brokenness
2. God speaks
3. People drift
4. Warning
5. Judgment
6. Preservation
7. Humility
8. Faith
9. Hope
10. Victory

The Good news is that through it all, God calls a broken, prideful humanity into humility and faith. He preserves them through discipline and judgment. He gives them new life, hope and identity in His Son and through His Spirit. He brings final victory through Jesus.

The scriptures Terry uses in this episode are all Chapter 5, verse 5 of the book she mentions.
