21 Day Pursuit

Join the Pursuit Team for their final podcast of the 21 Day Pursuit. Alli brings Romans 5 to the table to remind listeners that a hopeful heart is one that endures. A hopeful heart is confident that God will finish what He started- that He works all things together for good, and that He is preparing a perfect place for us where we will belong with Him forever. The best part? Even while we wait, we have the opportunity to be a beacon of hope so that others would come to know Jesus.

Alli, Lindsey, & special guest Mike Mylin get into the nitty-gritty of what the Scriptures teach us about eternity: what does it mean to have salvation? What did Christ do to seal the deal for us, and what does it mean to have His indwelling Spirit? How do you know if you have it? Join us as we uncover the amazing truths of God’s word that have filled us with hope.

How do we hold unswervingly to the hope we have in Jesus? Alli is joined by the Pursuit Team for a discussion all about hope. Biblical hope is much different from the optimism of the world because the hope of the Christian is solely in Jesus Himself. The resurrection opened up a living hope for us. We are called to share this hope with the world and ‘spur each other on’ as Hebrews 10 reminds us.

Not my will, but yours be done. Join the Pursuit team in their conversation around surrendering to Jesus even when it hurts. How do we follow Jesus when He is asking us to do something that doesn’t look like it will benefit us? How do we follow the example of 3 young men in Daniel 3 who say “even if God doesn’t save we will follow Him.”? Join us as we discuss.

We all have heroes of the faith that we aspire to be like. But, do we have too high of a view of our heroes? Does it just become discouraging at times because they were so darn amazing? Join us as we discuss how to have humble and courageous faith in the midst of our ordinary lives.

So often, we see people running to Jesus with their pain and their hurt, but how can we fathom a God who actually wants our tears and scars. Join Connor with our guests, Jacqlene Hoffman, Lauren Leberfinger, and Natalie-Anne Arnold, as they sit down to share stories of loss and what it looked like to bring that before the Lord. It might hurt to actually face-off with our pain, but it is a necessary process toward a whole heart.

What do we do when we feel like we’ve been left to rot in our humbling? Lindsey, Alli & Calvin dive-into Matthew 11 to talk about humility, yokes, and Kendrick Lamar. (you heard it here, first!) 1 Peter tells us that Jesus was “gentle and lowly,” and that we could come to Him for true soul-rest. How do we do that? By simply accepting His invitation to ‘come to Him.’

Alli, Benjamin and Josh team up to reflect on the obedience and servant-heartedness of Jesus in Philippians 2. Jesus was and is the perfect picture of humility. Christians often talk about their ‘big success stories’ and not so much the sacrifice and humility of what it took to get there. These three keep it real as they remember seasons of growth and disappointment.

Alli & Lindsey sit down with Benjamin & Bethany Bachman to discuss what it means to have a humble heart. Being parents of two amazing kiddos, Benjamin & Bethany discuss how they have grown in humility by viewing themselves in light of who God is: our Father. Jeremiah 9 reminds us that pride is the downfall of humility, and that if we are to boast in anything, we are to boast in the faithfulness of God the Father.

Join Connor, Alli, Calvin and Lindsey as they discuss how we go about actually hearing from God. Sometimes it feels hard to hear from God, but Psalm 40 reassures us that we have a God who not only speaks, but gives us the ability to hear Him.

Coming January 1, 2023! Join us as we set aside 21 days to reset our lives in pursuit of greater intimacy with God. We want to know His heart and to have His heart as we enter this year.
