How can we begin to take steps to more naturally and relationally share Jesus with people we know?  That's a great question to ask and Jason and Ryan talk about how this can happen in our lives by discussing John 1: 29-51 and see how Jesus became a natural and relational sharing opportunity for the first disciples.It's refreshing to know that the Holy Spirit empowers us to share about Jesus in our every day life.  He is the ONE who can use us to help plant a seed or water a seed so that someone begins to know Jesus through repentance and faith.Let's ask God to help us grow in sharing our faith naturally and relationally out of the over flow of Jesus at work in our lives.Email us at cornerstoneonourwayhome@gmail.com
Jesus' model of evangelism is RELATIONAL.  In other words, Jesus isn't COLD when reaching out to people in need to believe in the Messiah.  Evangelism requires some degree of warmth and CONNECTION.Jesus models this perfectly for us in John 4 with the woman at the well in Sychar, Samaria.  Joel and Ryan will break John 4 down and discuss how this impacts US today as we reach people that God has called us to reach.We MUST rely on the Holy Spirit as we share Jesus with people.  God will be giving us opportunities to share about Jesus as we pray and work to develop connections and relationships with people who need Him.Share this episode with a friend who knows Jesus or maybe someone who doesn't and then rely on the Holy Spirit to lead you in next steps in building a connection with them.  Email us at cornerstoneonourwayhome@gmail.com
How in the world can the reality of Hell help us?Because KNOWING the reality of Hell and sharing the Gospel of Jesus can allow God's Spirit to bring many to trust in Christ and be saved from Hell.Joel and Ryan discuss why THE WHY of Hell's reality should impact our lives today.  We will want to share the Good News about Jesus because we care for and love people too much to allow them to slip through life without hearing about how much God loves them.Ignoring the truth hell's reality won't help us or others.  But allowing God's heart for the lost (just like we all once were) to impact us, will help motivate us to increase our spiritual conversations with people we know who may not know Jesus as their Savior...YET.Email us at cornerstoneonourwayhome@gmail.com
How can we keep EVANGELISM in front of us and how can we keep something as important as EVANGELISM from slipping into the rear view mirror?Joel and Ryan discuss this question in this episode of ON OUR WAY HOME and as you watch and listen, you may discover that keeping EVANGELISM in front of our faces is easier than you may think.Romans 10:1-11 really do help us to rely on God to give us a heart for people who don't know Jesus yet and to intentionally pray for them.Need a fresh reminder and encouragement to be the witness that God has made us and called us to be as we talk about Jesus with people we know?  Praying this podcast will be that fresh reminder so that we'll be ready when God brings us opportunities to share about Jesus and how He's changing our lives!Email us at cornerstoneonourwayhome@gmail.com
Sometimes we need to SEE something in order to UNDERSTAND.How can we understand what FAITH is, how to get it, how to keep it, and how to grow in FAITH?Dwight and Ryan will discuss Romans 4 today and talk about the life of Abraham who believed what God said to Him and trusted that God could give him descendants as many as the stars even though he was 99 years old and his wife was 90 and they had NO KIDS.Faith calls us to trust God who is able to do the impossible in us and through us...even declaring us RIGHTEOUS through faith in Christ!Do you trust in what God says?  Would you like to grow in your faith?  Then watch, listen, and share this episode!Email us at cornerstoneonourwayhome@gmail.com
Romans 3 is one of the best chapters in the Bible.  It wraps up so many GREAT WORDS describing our Salvation through faith in Jesus in ONE PLACE.So how can we come to understand God's incredible salvation which is really BEYOND our ability to understand?  And how should we live in response to this GREAT SALVATION given to us through faith in Christ?Watch and Listen as Maurie and Ryan discuss these verses from Romans 3: 21-31 and how they HIT HOME in some incredible ways.Do we realize that because of what Jesus Christ has done for us that our MISSION that Jesus has given to us is right in front of our face?  Let's pray to understand and respond to God's salvation in faith and obedience as His greatly loved people!Email us at cornerstoneonourwayhome@gmail.com
We all mess up in many ways.  We just don't like to admit our mess ups.But could truly seeing our mess ups lead us to a better place that is totally for our GOOD?In Romans 3:9-20 Paul lays out that all people everywhere and throughout time all have the same troubles:  Our mouths that say terrible things, our eyes that look at the wrong things and lead us and our feet into making bad choices in bad places.Joel and Ryan talk about how truly seeing how bad we all are is good if it leads us to Jesus and the Gospel.  We all must deal with our pride.  Especially in not admitting our faults.  But when we do admit we're messed up, and turn to Jesus, we may just find the HIS FOREVER FIX to our greatest problem.Email us at cornerstoneonourwayhome@gmail.com
It's hard to hear the truth sometimes.  But the truth is always our friend.As Paul writes in Romans 3: 1-8, God has given to us His very WORDS.God's WORDS can get in our face, "God is TRUE and everyone is a liar!"So how can we develop a HUMBLE POSTURE to receive God's truth and keep receiving God's truth so that we can live a life that's pleasing to Him?Watch and Listen and Joel and Ryan discuss this passage and share from their lives how God works and who God uses to give us loving, non-sugar coated truth that we need to live for Him.Email us at cornerstoneonourwayhome@gmail.com
There is always a GAP between who we say we are and who we truly are.So how can we fix that problem?  It definitely starts with Jesus and believing the Gospel, but then WHAT?  Listen and watch and Lynnea and Ryan discuss how to allow Jesus to change us from the inside out, rather on trying to fix our outsides without the Holy Spirit's work and power.Sometimes we place too much focus on our externals and place too much significance on superficial things like the Jews did in Romans 2:17-29.  When we do this, we may discover that we're living as a hypocrite, which is easy for anyone with some discernment to notice.God loves to save us and change us through faith in Christ.  Let's keep growing closer to Jesus and use Romans 2 as a helpful reminder to avoid focusing on the surface and instead focusing on Jesus and walking with Him by faith.Email us at cornerstoneonourwayhome@gmail.com
What happens when we stop praising God and giving Him gratitude?  Things start going wrong.  Things move from bad to worse and we can even end up in a place where God says to us, "I'm going to let you go your own way."One of the hardest things that we can experience in life is receiving the natural consequences of our bad decisions. God doesn't give up on us.  But He gives us over to do what we want to do and then we reap the results.  It's almost as if we're driving toward a cliff with our foot smashed into the gas peddle.But is this what God truly wants for us?  Watch and listen today as Joel and Ryan discuss the great and awesome God who saved us by the sacrifice of His One and Only Son to save us from the disaster that we can bring on ourselves.  We will discover that a Holy and Loving God has a righteous wrath against sin which He poured out on Jesus to save us from going our own sinful way.  God is able to clearly show us our problem so that we will be be looking for His Salvation and ready to receive it.Email us at cornerstoneonourwayhome@gmail.com
