Pizza Party Part 2 (Two Things)Today’s episode is the second in a multi-part series I’ve dubbed “Pizza Party”.  In today's session, we break down the Two Things that are essential to embodying the Spirit of God in your life.The “fruit of the Spirit”, as Apostle Paul reveals in Galatians 5:22-23, is made up of nine elements: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.Now, it’s one thing to know the what when it comes to defining the fruit of the Spirit. Paul has given us the what. But this series aims to accomplish something totally unique: I’m taking things a step further and discussing the why, the where, and the how of the fruit of the Spirit.However, before we can analyze the nine elements of the fruit of the Spirit, slice by slice, there are "Two Things" we have to talk about that are essential to fully appreciate this series—and not just this series, but your life as a believer.Just what are these Two Things that we need to understand in our quest to resist the acts of the flesh and embody the Spirit of Truth? Tune in and find out.Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll learn: ●       Our Spotlight Scripture: Galatians 5:22-23●       Opening prayer●       The why, the where, and the how of the fruit of the Spirit●       What Dr. Seuss and Galatians 5:19-25 can teach us about embodying the Spirit of Truth●       Overcoming the acts of the flesh via practicing our righteousness and sanctification●       Closing prayerKey Quotes by Pastor Milo:●       [This study is about the ] Old You versus the New You. The Old You has this human nature—this fallen nature—where it’s just natural to sin. Paul says, in your old nature, you produce what is called the “acts of the flesh”. [...] But now you’re a...new creation. You’ve been made new by God—you’ve been born again. You’ve been born by the Spirit of God and [...] so you don’t produce the acts of the flesh but the fruit of the Spirit.●       Sanctification shows us the Divine Directive and the Divine Direction of God.Support the show

He’s inviting you on a 22-day journey to go over God’s Word and catch His Goodness in the new year. He wants to demonstrate how Christianity has conquered this Catch-22 conundrum. Even though the idea behind the phrase is that there is no escape, the Word says otherwise. Through Jesus, Milo reminds us, we find salvation. Just heed Hebrews 2:3: 3 how shall we escape if we ignore so great a salvation? This salvation, which was first announced by the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard him. Are you prepared to catch God’s Goodness in the new year?

We are a new creation in Christ.●       The good news in Christianity is: Christ is our escape. We are saved through Him.●       Here’s the biblical bottom line: We can’t escape sin and death if we ignore our great salvation through Jesus because that’s the only way we can escape God’s wrath.Links:Download your free 22-Day Study Guide.  Just hit the link below and click on Catch 22!https://preachermanmilo.com Support the show (https://preachermanmilo.com/give)

Episode 58 - Don’t Be a TurkeyHappy Thanksgiving!As we reunite with family at what we hope to be the tail-end of the pandemic pandemonium, let’s utilize practical wisdom to make sure everyone we come in contact with remains safe and healthy.Don’t be unsafe. Don’t be unwise...Also, don’t be a turkey.Preacher Milo says this to mean: Have courage. Specifically, Christian courage, or “the materialization of your strength in the Lord.”Christian courage is a wonderful virtue that sits between two other traits: strength and wisdom. Preacher Milo says that developing these three traits is a matter of capacity, ability, and quality. Listen in as he goes on to explain how you can grow in Christian courage and how to apply this powerful virtue in your life. Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll learn:  ●       [00:43] Let’s use practical wisdom as we enjoy Thanksgiving in 2021 ●       [02:48] Our Spotlight Scripture: Deuteronomy 31:6 ●       [03:11] Opening prayer ●       [03:51] Thankful for Another Day by Qheem The Redeemed ●       [09:25] What is “Christian courage” and the other two key traits? ●       [13:23] What today’s Spotlight Scripture teaches us about Christian courage ●       [15:00] The dos and don’ts and the what and the why of Christian courage ●       [16:43] The context behind Deuteronomy 31:6 ●       [25:56] A recap of our discussion on Christian courage ●       [27:50] What is your biggest fear? ●       [29:24] Faith is the substance of things hoped for ●       [32:20] Closing prayer Key Quotes by Preacher Man Milo:●       Christian courage is the materialization of your strength in the Lord.●       When you have Christian courage, what do you do? Well, you be strong and courageous. And what don’t you do? You don’t be afraid or terrified. That’s the what. But what’s the why? And the why is, simply: The Lord your God is with you. He will never leave, never forsake, never abandon you. It really is that simple.●       Your biggest fear keeps you elusive in your faith.●       Faith is the substance of things hoped for. And I want you to know that Christian courage is the substance of you having the wisdom that your strength is in God.Spotlight Scripture:"Be strong and courageous.

Episode 57 - Free Gold "To the Jews who had believed in Him, Jesus said, “If you hold to My teachings you are really My disciples. Then you will know the truth and the truth will set you free.” They answered him, “We are Abraham’s descendants and have never been slaves of anyone. How can you say that we shall be set free?” Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, everyone who sins is a slave to sin. Now a slave has no permanent place in the family, but a son belongs to it forever. So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.” You’ve just read John 8:31-36, and if there’s one thing we can take away from this magnificent bit of scripture, it’s this: Our faith in Jesus is what sets us free, and our faith in Jesus is better than gold. With Veterans Day upon us, Preacher Milo points to the history of our freedom as Americans as a powerful illustration of how we should celebrate our faith-based freedom as Christians. He then breaks down our spotlight scripture before giving us two practical ways to apply our God-given freedom to our life. Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll learn: ●       [00:44] Our Spotlight Scripture: John 8:31-36●       [02:15] Preacher Milo’s message to all veterans●       [05:22] Opening prayer●       [06:12] Golden ●       [07:41] What Veterans Day teaches us about our freedom as Christians●       [09:17] Fun facts about Veterans Day●       [14:53] Freedom●       [17:03] A discussion on John 8:12-30 to contextualize our spotlight scripture●       [22:40] Are you a believer or a challenger?●       [24:26] The three categories of discipleship●       [30:56] Two ways to apply your faith-based freedom in your life ●      [36:07] Closing prayer Key Quotes by Preacher Milo:●       The way in which we celebrate the history of our veterans in America is significant as an illustration to how we celebrate our freedom, not just as Americans, but also as Christians.●       Freedom comes through the Son. The Son is part of the family. The Son of the King is royalty. The Son tells the slave, “You can go. You are free.” You are really free because the Son has the authority to set you free.●       Our faith in Jesus is what sets us free, and our faith in Jesus is better than gold.●       When your faith is genuine and it gets tested, it proves itself to be true faith, because it results in you giving God praise, glory, and honor.  Why? Because the truth of Jesus has been revealed to you. You believe in Him. You know Him. Support the show (https://preachermanmilo.com/give)

It defines your days.●       Struggle seasons happen from time to time. That’s the one inescapable truth.●       Everyone is either in a storm, headed into a storm, or coming out of a storm.

Bible Study Episode 54 - Room and Time We kick off Season 3 with a discussion on how we ought to prioritize the Lord in our daily lives, taking inspiration from our Spotlight Scripture—Titus 2:14. Milo shares, through the perspective of the redeemed Paul, how he taught Titus and Timothy on the principles of leadership and pastorship—the result of which we read in the pastoral epistles. He goes on to break down today’s Spotlight Scripture and offers four easy ways we can make room and time for God. Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll learn:   ●       [01:05] Our Spotlight Scripture: Titus 2:14 ●       [01:53] Opening prayer ●       [05:08] How humans prioritize ●       [07:36] Making room and time for God ●       [09:29] The pastoral epistles ●       [13:05] Breaking down Titus 2:5-14 ●       [18:45] Purifying a people for His very own ●       [19:54] Salvation vs sanctification ●       [23:18] How to prioritize God in four steps Key Quotes by Milo:●       People prioritize what matters to them.●       God designed us.
