This is not biblical. Call it what you would like but this ideology does not follow scripture. Matthew 16:24. Romans 12:1-2, I could go on forever. Again--call this what you would like but it is not "Christian". Being a Christian means following Christ who is the Son of the Living God which means you believe in the inerrancy of all Scripture because 2 Timothy 3:16-17--all scripture is God breathed.
@@Watkinsstudio no he isn't , but the Bible is the final arbriter, and he is right, the Bible disagrees with everything she says , call it what you want, but the Bible says her ideology is not biblical
Oh Nadia, thank you so much. In just 2 short minutes you have in in incredibly helped my faith and heart. Thank you thank you! I needed to hear that today 💛💛💛🙏🙏🙏
Living and removing one's mask is truly liberating. Thankyou for sharing your gift of earlier years with me for I see no mask that most people wear and that is not only inspirational within itself but I see such beauty and oneness in you as I watch and listen today. I hear Yeshua the Nazarean and the wisdom of the Essenes.
Purity is a demand made by human authority, God does transform our behavior but we still make mistakes, grace is what covers us in progress, not perfection. The jaggedness she speaks of here is the pain of getting our hopes up for things that don’t happen, experiencing loss and heartbreak and failure and pain and the tedious sense that dulling it by binge watching TV isn’t our best and in the end maybe that’s OK. We can pray and we can worship and we can pretend we didn’t fall asleep through yet another boring sermon every Sunday but we’ll still have jaggedness and sharing that jaggedness is a kind of joy we can cling to for the unity and belonging we seek from each other. That isn’t “sin” it’s called life.
What I really want is Jesus. Jesus renews our hearts and minds. Jesus isn't cool, He is Mighty to save and Holy and we are called to be set apart! Worthy of all praise is the One who came to set the captives free!
What a shame no one likes this post in 6 months. It's because its about holiness, there are a lot of devil's who listen to this girl, I love this post!!! Praise God
That's cause she lies to you and makes your feel comfortable in your sin, but you need to change, you need to be pure, and Jesus can help you, but you want the opposite, you love your sin and hate the purity of God
I LIKE THAT - TEXTURES TO GRAB ON TO -OOPS my keyboard was happy to shout...thank you for sharing the bits about us helps us connect better with likeminded people
Those people that don't meditate properly have not been taught properly and religious people like yourself are always putting down positiwe're putting down a lot of thinking and part of the motivation because because you don't think that is good enough to believe in yourself Or you're not allowed to that bullshit Remember your I am's to believe in God is to believe in yourself you're one of the same you don't get wet from the word water
Matthew 7 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Reality is that God is perfect, connecting to people is not equivalent to connecting with Christ. If you would just believe in Jesus and pray, he would help you be freed from sin. It is not easy, but for God all things are possible. Read your bible, reality won't bend to nice words from a pastor, God tolerates no sin now, he wont in the kingdom either. if your having trouble with something, pick up a bible, actually read the teachings of Christ. Also, stay away from the new age, it's all recycled occult nonsense with a false sense of spirituality. It will enslave you in ways you don't see coming, yoga too. Go to Jesus, the true Christ not people's opinions of him
I can relate, Since I was 23 I have been on meds- antidepressants, etc. finally diagnosed with severe ADHD-inattentive disorder. This helped me understand why even working in a quiet library, I struggled to stay on task, be productive, and remember things. I have lost jobs year after year, I am now 64. If I wasn’t let go, I would see signs it was coming so would quit. Then treated for CPTSD and my faith in God, but still struggle daily in relationships because of this and jobs. My husband is so understanding. So I am thankful. I just lost another job this week. I had loved it but failed again. Even with all kinds of encouragement from office staff, until they fired me.
I meant my faith in God has grown and listening to your messages are so wonderfully encouraging. Thank you so much Nadia. My pastor in our Lutheran church told me about you.
I can relate to your problems. Don't give up! Life is beautiful even when we loose jobs and have relationship difficulties. I know because I have suffered thru the same kind of situations. I'm praying for you! One day we'll all meet at the heart of God and understand that every struggle in this life was for a reason, a beautiful reason, to open ourselves to His love!
Nadia...thank you for all you do for me each and every day. listening and watching you carry a message of hope and recovery is what i'm clinging to today. Overwhelmed with all that i know and have learned in my 36 years of active recovery and barely hanging on to life today is where i am at. If you need a project of saints and sinners, Deschutes County, Oregon is in great need of what you and i have to offer.
what we really need is self-acceptance, and then those "jagged edges" don't feel so jagged and painful any more.. :) God made each of us different with a unique texture
Why would a Christian need new age mediation? Christians are connected to each other through Christ and not our sin. And while we all sin, over time, that sin should lessen as the sanction process progresses. Scripture tells us that He who began a good work in you will finish it. If that isn't happening, one should question his/her salvation.
Sometimes we are not told how to overcome sin we are instead made to feel guilty & week & we cannot grow. The bible says confess your sins to one another. Once I heard someone else struggled with the same pattern of repent & fall back into the same sin as I did we both realized that by grace we can overcome the bondage of guilt that was hindering our growth. This is what I get from her. Nobody can be sinless by willpower alone we need one another. iron sharpens iron
@@waynemcdonald4448 Wayne, I agree that Christians should help each other encourage one another, and, as your said sharpen one another. Have you listened to any of he other videos, such as this one? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QRm8AEc4yV8.html
Encouraging her members to break the 6th commandment, stating that Christianity is not the only way to Christ, and making a mockery of the office of the ministry? She is not a pastor, she is one of those whom Paul specifically said to watch out for.
Ms. Bolz-Weber's emphasis on grace is much appreciated but she has simply traded one heresy for another. A well meaning reactionary message against perfectionism has inevitably led her to antinomianism. She has yet to realize that it's okay that the Christian life is paradox. God's grace is meaningless except in the context of our daily struggle with sin.
Finally, a pastor who makes sense and who does not mindlessly spout scripture. Of course she has detractors but attacking her is not going to be the answer to the question of anybody's smallness and insecurity. Those answers come from calling out one's own words and actions, not those of someone else.
Lol then shes a speaker she tells her own ideas. She isnt a pastor a pastor teaches us the bible why we spout the bible is becuase that is the word of God step away and are own human tendencies start becoming are voice
@@davidhofmans9507 She does teach scripture. If her interpreting scripture differently from you is your issue, you're also at odds with the hundred other Christian denominations whose pastors each think they are on the best path.
@@Watkinsstudio theres a huge difference from interpreting scripture and looking at a few bible verses and saying alright this is what he ment and let's completely ignore everything else
@@Watkinsstudio and you know what let me be they can believe what they will be it by taking the word and following or by taking the word and twisting it in a way that suits there needs. CS Lewis once said if christianity was made by man it would be made to be easy in which it is not so it must be from God. At times what she preaches is true but other times not at all with her thinking that sins dont matter that we are above asking for forgiveness and for many things like homosexuality to social norms that the bible considers either disgraceful or an abomination is wrong.
