In this episode of The Carpenter Shop, we explore the often-overlooked practice of pondering. Luke 2:19 tells us that Mary treasured and pondered the events of Jesus’ birth. But what about us? Do we take time to reflect on how God is working in our lives? Through scripture, we discover the importance of noticing, reflecting, and learning from God’s presence in our daily journey. Don’t miss what He’s doing—pause, ponder, and grow.

Are you feeling a little lost when it comes to hearing God’s voice? We often hear about being “called” or “voice activated” by God, but what does that actually mean in our everyday lives? In this message, we dive deep into the concept of being guided by God’s voice, exploring the many (and sometimes surprising) ways He communicates with us. Forget the dramatic Hollywood portrayals – this isn’t about lightning bolts and booming voices. We’ll tackle how to discern God’s voice from the chaos of the world and silence the “thief” trying to steal your joy and purpose. We’ll discuss how to identify God’s call, renew your mind, and embrace the abundant life He has planned for you. We’ll unpack the importance of scripture, prayer, and community in understanding God’s voice. Plus, you’ll leave with some practical checkpoints to help you discern if what you’re hearing is truly from God. If you’re tired of feeling like God’s radio is on the fritz, join us – it’s time to tune in and live a “voice activated” life.
