Description

In the Rough Places into Level Ground Podcast, we will engage in Bible Study of selected scriptures and their application to our lives. As we strive to live God's word we are blessed as the rough places of our lives become level ground. After years of teaching and writing Sunday School lessons, Women's Bible Studies and my own Seminary study, God has called me deeper into His word and this is a journey I am excited to share with you. Please join us for new podcasts every first and third Mondays of the month.

You can also find additional content, easy to share messages, stories and Bible devotional content by visiting the seeking level ground website and blog page. It can be found at https://seekinglevelground.com

Miracles

Send us a text The question for me was not if I believed in God, but how I believed in God. Asking do I truly know and trust God?

What Value Do I Have?

2025-01-0207:44

Send us a text There are times when we all ask ourselves, do I matter, or wonder what value we have. Times when circumstance brings into our lives broken relationships, divorce, unforgiveness, lonliness, job loss and any number of situations that can make us question our value. Sometimes its easy to get caught up in seeing ourselves through the eyes of others or our world and what it values. What do we do during these times, who do we go to, where do we seek comfort? Please feel free to comme...
Send us a text Can we rise above our worst mistakes, the regrets and sin that hold us down, the times we have given in to temptation, and done all we know we should not have? How can we rise above the things we have done, be renewed, break free of guilt and strongholds, and find peace in our hearts and mind? We can find the answer in Jesus' first word to us as He began to preach. He said, "repent for the kingdom of heaven has come near." Of all the words Jesus could have used to begin His pre...

Suffering With Christ

Suffering With Christ

2024-07-1116:25

Send us a text What does it mean to you to suffer with Christ? Have you thought how Christ uses our suffering to bring us closer to Him? Suffering can lead us to ask some hard questions of ourselves. For example, am I really giving all of my life to Christ? Am I trusting Him totally with every aspect of my life, hurt anger, doubt, grief? Can my suffering awaken in me a reality that I am not close enough, that I need more, want more and need to cry to Him to help my unbelief? If it was n...

The Cup

The Cup

2024-01-1810:12

Send us a text How we relate to everything and everyone in our lives ultimately depends on how we relate to God. In Psalm 16 we see that as we are filled from God's cup we can walk in this world as He commands. We are able to walk better together and be His hands and feet. As we are filled by His cup and the lines of His care fall around us, our heart is glad, we can rejoice and rest in hope. Join us for a study of Psalm 16 as ...
Send us a text "Because you are important everything you do is important.

Wm Paul Young. All of our stories belong to God, each having worth and value. Our God is a restoring God and when we turn to Him and place our stories in His hand they can become tre...
