Week 6 - All Wrapped Up With Love

Please forgive any skips in the recording. I tried to edit out a few unfortunate incidences we had with a bug that was freaking out some of the ladies in the bible study, and it wasn't perfectly seamless.

Azan

We have a new study to add to our "Faithful God" blog. It's called "Azan", and it is taught by one of our own, Jana Penland, who was told by God to write this study many years ago. Azan is a word that means listening with your heart, understanding when it is God speaking, and being ready to obey. I hope this first podcast ministers to anyone who happens upon this blog as much as it did to the 12 ladies in Jana's livingroom last night. Jana is hoping to publish this study in the near future, so she is open to feedback and insight.

Click on the links below for the podcast itself as well as the PDF handout that goes along with the podcast. There are also 5 days of homework in PDF form to print out and do on your own. Let me know if you have any questions.

Blessings!

Week 2 - The Prayer That Changes Everything

The homework for next week is to read chapters 3 and 4 and personalize the prayers for each chapter. Pray them through every day if you can, but don’t make it a chant or a ritual. Just do what you can do to make it genuine worship, even if it’s only a paragraph you are getting through. The second bit of homework is to write a prayer list and rather than repeating the same requests over and over again, turn each request into praise to the Lord. For example, if your children are sick, rather than constantly begging God for their health, praise Him for their strong immune systems to fight it off and for good health care and for His sovereignty in their lives and so forth. We are going to keep track of God’s amazing answers to prayer that goes above all we ask or imagine when we go to Him with a heart of worship.

I have loaded the podcast to the website. There was no worksheet to go along with it. I am going to load a journal entry I keep referring to regarding my journey from struggling with doubt and even hostility toward a passage to a heart of joy and worship for God’s goodness and faithfulness. I refer to it in this podcast as well as many past ones. I read it in the first podcast I did back in November, I think most have forgotten it since then.

As always, let me know if you have any questions.
