Welcome 2024 - Walk In Victory
Bishop Naomi welcomes the new year with reflections on her focus for 2024. Her word for this year is Victory. "Walk it out everyday." There is a lot going on in the world and the community of faith. It may seem like all is lost but she asks, "where do you get your intel?" She gets her inspiration from Psalms 37:23-25, Jeremiah 29:11-14, and Matthew 16:24-25.

ATKW Book club is reading a book that inspires us to have crazy faith!
This is a short pop up podcast to encourage listeners to continue reading and if they haven’t to join us in reading Crazy Faith by Pastor Michael Todd. Being asked to step out of the boat and walk on water in the midst of a storm is crazy. Being asked to throw a net on the other side of the boat to catch fish when you have been fishing in the same place all day is crazy. Doing what Jesus asks can make you feel like you have lost your reasoning but you are just fine!

Self-Sabotage. Are you guilty of it too? Part I

Christian Mysticism, I am not afraid.
ATKW leads off this podcast with a discussion around the question, "Can the fearless teach [something beneficial to] the fearful?" The question arose after a Christian presenter commented during a lesson that Christians should be cautious of Christian mysticism. As one who has received benefits and insight from studying Christian mystics, I knew there was nothing of which to be afraid. It is understood in the Christian tradition as involving union with God (www.britannica.com). In my experience, Christian mysticism has added value to my Christian journey. I am grateful to have been gifted as a seeker, one who is unafraid to learn and experience Christian traditions & practices that are not my own. NOTES: The scriptures read in this podcast: Acts 3:1-9, II Timothy 1:3-7. Outdoor adventures. Instagram: @AdventuressTY
