Refreshment for the soul

God is so faithful to give us what we need exactly when we need it—including moments of refreshment and rejuvenation. He’s given me so many in recent weeks, along with such incredible joy in his Word!

I hope these moments will refresh you too. And get ready! Because, in turn, I’d love to know what’s been refreshing your soul.

First is KRISTI MCLELLAND’S message at church last Sunday on FINDING HOPE IN GRIEF. It’s Week 1 of our church’s study in the book of RUTH. So, so good.

Next is PAIGE BROWN and Week 3 of our study in the book of JAMES. But tick, tick! This video disappears TONIGHT (Tuesday evening, Feb 7), so watch/listen to it today, if you can. It’s one of the best, most Biblically-based teachings on “faith versus works” (IE: what Jesus describes as real, authentic faith) I’ve ever heard.

Next is BRAD GRAY and his The Teaching Series. Specifically, part 1 of his study in RUTH. Notice a theme here? : ) Brad’s teachings are always so rich with insights into the cultural and historical context of the Bible as viewed through the middle eastern lens.

And finally, if you haven’t seen Season 3, Episode 7 of THE CHOSEN, where have you been?! : )

It’s available now and is so rich. Joe and I saw the last two episodes of Season 3 in the theater last week but I’ll be watching it again this week too. So many people are coming to Christ through this show, and their thirst for God’s Word is being stirred, which is something I pray for myself all the time. Lord, increase my desire for You and for Your Word.

So what are YOU listening to or watching that’s refreshing you this week? Perhaps that’s calling you back to the Word of God? That’s stirring your devotion to Christ and your heart toward Home?

And don’t for one minute think this new Gram Tam is going to let you go without a pic of our sweet Leo—what of the best ever refreshments for my soul. I am so totally IN LOVE with this little guy, friends. He’ll be two months old soon and, gracious, who knew being a grandmother could be such fun!
