Real Stories of Faith in Action
Anxiety, Uncertainty, Loneliness. Your life journey has a brighter direction. Christian faith offers a path to a more meaningful life and an assurance of eternal salvation. Hear the stories of Christians who by exercising their faith, change the lives of themselves and others.
Too many of us live in fear and isolation. Jesus Christ said "Fear not" or "Do not be afraid" more than anything else in his public life. He wanted us to be at peace with Him. The Good News is not that life will become easy. The Good News is that you no longer have to carry your cross or your burdens on your own. When we surrender our fears to Jesus Christ, He give us His presence, love and strength. 1 Peter 5:7 "Cast all your anxiety on Him because he cares for you." In Matthew 6:25-34, Jesus gives us the antidote to anxiety. "Therefore, I tell you, do not worry about your life…. Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you besides."
The Good News Journey podcast is a respite from this busy world we live in. We will talk with Christian authors and speakers who have a special way of relating ancient Scriptures to our everyday lives. We will spend time with ordinary, faithful Christians doing extraordinary things, serving God by serving others. As your hosts, we will share our own personal testimonies and how faith changed our lives.
We are surrounded by good news. We just don't hear about it. But here you will find real people with genuine faith changing the world one person at a time.
Our weekly conversations will inspire and encourage all of us to keep spreading the good news of the Gospel.
Podcasts and videos featuring Christians who live their faith every day and Christian authors who have keen insights into how Scriptures apply to our modern world.
Meet everyday Christians who follow the message from the Lord and His Sermon on the Mount. "You are the light of the world...Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a bushel basket, they put it on a lampstand, and it gives light to all the house. Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven." Matt. 5: 14-16
We will share their life stories and let their light shine upon all of us. Jesus said in John 8:12, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness but will have the light of life." A joyful life is contagious, and you will be inspired by these real stories of putting faith to work.
God created every heart for eternity. Nothing fills that vacancy – not success, not relationships, not anything this world offers – except a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. It's a free gift. Just open the door.
We may be in the stadium but how do you get involved and go from the[grand stands onto to the playing field. We will help you discover service opportunities in your area. If you are looking to volunteer and to "give back," a good starting point would be at your church community. Churches will provide you with what organizations or individuals may need help in your area.
