Susie's Sessions

• SHE IS CALLED: It’s so easy to give our time away to things un-appointed by God. The result? We end up over-worked and under-joyed. Do you believe that God created you for a purpose? How do we navigate the waters of opposition, the reality of our fears, and the timing of God to lay hold of HIs best purposes for us? The days are growing more evil but we have every reason for faith. God is alive and active in our world and He will profoundly use those who are willing to take hold of His promises and walk them out in their everyday lives. It’s impossible to please God without faith. Get ready for a time to break free from the opinions of others and be challenged and motivated to become and accomplish everything God intended for you since the beginning of time! Based on Ephesians 3:20-21
• HE RESTORES: Why do we so often minimize our losses and stuff down our grief? We work hard, press through, and we just get by. Is this because we believe that’s what good Christians do? Yet at what cost to our souls? Jesus cares about the hurts buried deep in our hearts. He cares about the trials we’ve endured and how they’ve impacted us. And He stands before us with a fire in His eyes, ready and willing to speak to those places in us that need assurance, love, and redemption. Jesus lives! And because He lives, we too can live fully alive, nourished, and free. God wants to restore your soul and your story in ways you never thought possible. Psalm 23:3 ~ He restores my soul...
• SHE’S AN HEIR: The Bible tells us that in Christ Jesus, we are heirs of God! But so often we think and pray like orphans. We beg and plead, and allow our disappointments to mark our lives to the point of unbelief. How do we remember who we are in Christ Jesus? What if we approached life like an heir, especially when hardships come and threaten to steal our joy? Our perspective on our adoption into the royal family of God, changes everything. Based on Romans 8:17
• HE REWARDS: As the days grow evil and the times more chaotic, God invites us to be continually refreshed in His presence and to live with eternity in mind. Burke once said, Most Christians know so little about heaven that they’re more excited about retirement than they are about eternity. How do we make this life count if we’re flying blind when it comes to heaven? And why does it matter how we live if we’re simply saved by grace? We have this one life. None of us knows when we’ll see Jesus face to face. How we live here directly impacts how we will live there…in heaven. Jesus spoken often about stewardship because He loves us and wants us to reap a harvest when it’s all said and done. We’ll explore the kind of life that God rewards. Jesus lives! May we live like heaven is real because it is! Revelation 22:12 ~ “Look, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to each person according to what they have done."
