Love Like His

Let's talk about the love of our Savior. In all of its complexity. Or simplicity? Maybe it's far easier to understand than we like to make it. God wants us to understand it in the way a child does. Just that He's always there, and always will be. Always.

He's Everywhere

Where is God? We got the answer from a 4 year old. His answer was complete Biblical truth. But, he can't even read yet. How could he know? Fortunately for us, God didn't make this answer super complex. It can be answered simply in a single word from a child. Everywhere.
"Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast." - Psalm 139:7-12

Streetlights: Testimonials

Please Welcome to the 4th Chair our friend, Greg Ledet! It was such an honor for Greg to come and join us in studio, all the way from Chipley, Florida. Greg has an incredible story of what it is like to come home when God turns on the Street Lights (Episode 9 reference). Greg’s story is full of things like redemption, grace, healing and faith. Make sure you catch this one!

Streetlights

Everybody loves a good homecoming story. So, lets take a few minutes to reflect on our own. When God calls us back to His arms, there is peace, redemption, mercy, wisdom, grace and so much more. If home is where the heart is, let home be where He is!

Failure is an Option

The team talks about failure. Is there a failure in your life that you thought meant the end of everything? The team has had those, too. But God views "failure" differently than we do. Tune in and find out why failure is an option.

The Art of Discipline

The team talks about the importance of discipline. It doesn't necessarily make sense that more free time means it's harder to stay disciplined, but we examine why it can sometimes be too much of a good thing. Balance is important in discipline.

Swing Away

Did you ever play baseball? If so, did you ever hit a homerun? Well, Steve did. And he can't wait to tell you about it. But more than that, he can't wait to tell you about how God meets us with His strength to give us the strength to do things we'd otherwise consider improbable. Nobody does impossible like He does.

Welcome to the Hatverse

Have you ever felt like you have trouble separating parts of your life in a healthy? Worse yet, have you ever not realized it at all? The roles we play in different parts of our life can often intersect. How to manage that intersection is essential. Let's talk about how!

I'm Their Leader. Which Way Did They Go?

In this episode, the team talks about difficulties in leadership, parenting, or any position of authority where THEY JUST WON'T LISTEN! It can feel defeating. But, we must resolve to show the same grace the Father has shown us. 

Chasing Sheep at Midnight

In this episode, the team talks about how to deal with disappointment. Have you ever chased someone or something that just doesn’t want to be caught? It can be demoralizing. The team is grateful that we know The Good Shepherd! We let ourselves down, and so do other people. He never does.
