i suggest you guys if you havent already to read this book called “winning the war in your mind” by Craig Groeschel its so good!! it helped me alot with understanding how to control your thoughts instead of letting your thoughts control you. I pray that you guys are able to get your hands on it soon!!
One of the best ways Paul writes is amazing! Taking Ephesians as an example. Ephesians 1-3 is Doctrine. Ephesians 4-6 is Practice. You will notice that in a lot of Paul’s writings!
This series is amazing! One of my resolutions for 2024. Live a life that honors God in everything I do. Everything. I feel at a special place this year with the lord. Also as a mom and wife this brings me joy. Thank you both for letting yourselves be use to bless this community. Greetings from NY
I feel like I need a deep dive on what it means to love the world and how it applies to today because I feel like its such a obvious yet deep statement
You both are a blessing to watch and to see how the Lord is working in both of you at such a young age, praise God. I also used to think for many years that sanctification is a process that starts at salvation and ends when you die, until I listened to the Michael Pearl Sin No More teachings. It completely changed my entire viewpoint on what sanctification is and how I walk with the Lord. It's life changing... highly recommend. God bless both of you!
Thank you for this. Since coming back to Jesus and accepting him as a single parent I've given up a lot that my flesh wants me to do however I still struggle with things like vaping and letting my emotions guide me, and I also do listen to certain secular music and watch movies and tend to ramble and overeat as well I just hope the more I draw to him the more I'm able to glorify him and put him first through everything i do instead of my flesh
@asformeandmyhousepodcast Thank you so much honestly i do not know where he is leading me or if I'm doing the right thing half the time but I'll follow
Can I tell you guys that I’ve fasted and prayed about something, and didn’t get an answer from the Lord in my quiet time this morning. It’s now lunchtime… a giant lizard was on my curtain (south Florida here!!) and I had to shoo him out the door. I thought to myself maybe I should go out there too. I grabbed my laptop (work remotely) and my phone and had this episode pop up randomly first so I clicked on it for background noise. (adding these details because how funny is He? Using a giant lizard to lure me outside to have this time where I was seeking a cozy spot with background noise-otherwise would have been at my desk fairly focused) I continue working and as soon as you start reading Colossians, I set my computer down and read it myself. All of this is what the Lord needed to use to answer what I was praying and fasting for. Directly answer me. I’m in the 90 degree sun with goosebumps. I’ve read this a million times but THIS time…. is when I needed it. Wow It never gets old when He answers us directly with the word. I’m crying, always in awe of Him. Thank you for letting Him use you guys.
One thing I struggle with as a Christian is how to handle when other Christians especially leaders, pastors and teacher do something wrong, maybe a sin or teaching a false doctrine. I guess I hold some resentment especially when they are stubborn in their ways or I entirely give up on them and don’t listen to them and regard them as false teachers when they don’t humble themselves. However I wish was more forgiving and actually made time to pray for them. I just get hurt by it and I guess I wish I didn’t hold grudges by other Christians disappointing me because that will happen and only Jesus is perfect.
Would you be open to doing a podcast on the seven deadly sins specifically gluttony. And the line between treating your body with respect/not overindulging/feeding our flesh, and the “self care” world we live in. Not sure if that makes sense but it’s been on my mind a lot!
I have a serious problem with gluttony (over eating) and laziness. And it doesn’t glorify God. It hurts my husband, child and it’s selfish. But I can’t seem to shake it. I relax by using food. And I guess I just would like prayer or help guidance on this. I have been to the church pastor and others for prayer on it. But if there could be any videos on how to be free from a stronghold sin, then I seriously need help. I hate it.
I suggest fasting and repentance to break the stronghold. Make sure you have an established habit of both spending time with God as a regular discipline to "fill up your love cup" and then run to Himand some scriptures that address these issues. Consider overhauling your diet by researching different healthy diets that you can slowly switch over to that is sustainable rather than a crash diet. Add some form of exercise to your lifestyle. Just my thoughts. I struggle with the same things.
Thank you for the video. Would you guys do longer videos and dive deeper into more details? Like for example cover practical day to day application of the word. How to implement those changes in your family etc.
Hey Milena and Jordan! Thank you so much for your podcast it has guided me back to my faith. I was raised in the church, but through college and early adulthood have not been active in my faith. I have never read the Bible, but I feel He is calling me to start. Do you have a recommendation on a specific Bible that is easier to read and follow? Thank you both so much for your service and always being so honest.
Not sure if you guys have done a podcast on dealing with rejection or judgment from family. After you decide with your spouse to fully follow Christ and a Christ centered home. That be also not participating in certain things anymore as before. Would love to hear on something like this.
Could you please make a video about finding the right denomination of a church to go to. So many have false doctrine, I’m really struggling to find a church that is right! Thank you! And I love you guys! You are such a light in this world! Thanks for another great podcast episode!
Wondering if a podcast on intrusive thoughts and/or dreams, specifically negative disturbing confusing ones that also feel so intrusive, might be on one of your heart’s to do. (: I struggle with this greatly despite rebuking them & praying for them to stop. It weighs on me heavily & has become so discouraging about myself.
Have you gone through deliverance? That helped me. However, I still get the weird dreams & mental attacks at times. We just have to stand in faith that we have authority. Some days are better than others. God is also preparing the body as a whole as to how to fight the darkness especially as times get darker. You are not alone.
I just wanted to tell you that you're not alone. I myself struggle with some really weird thoughts sometimes and I just try my best to stand on God's word and I just push those thoughts away in faith.
I have no experience myself in this area, but I am praying, in the name of Jesus, for your disturbing dreams and thoughts to stop If you attend a church, I would ask to speak to the pastor, or one of the elders, and you can be prayed over in person too. 🙏🏻✝️🙏🏻✝️
Milena, I think part of Christian habits is letting your husband lead. When it is just you it is okay if you talk about something you have strong convictions. But it does not feel right watching this podcast and you are leading the conversation while Jordan is just there to supplement what you are saying❤️
I think she let him speak and that it was very cute when she asked him to read! Letting our husbands lead doesn’t mean sitting silently or not sharing our thoughts, and so I think it’s important to be careful when commenting things like that bc it puts a negative view on submitting. I feel like I can see the respect Milena has for Jordan and also the respect Jordan has for Milena !!
