Soaking in the Sonlight: The Podcast
Hello there! Welcome to the Soaking in the Sonlight Podcast! And you read that right...that's sunlight with an "o." In the Bible, Jesus says "I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life." John 8:12 KJV Jesus is the Son of God and He is the light of the world. As a Christian woman in my twenties, I want to share Jesus' light with others (or as I like to call it, the "Sonlight").
This podcast is a platform to encourage my young peers and the young at heart to "grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ." Just like plants, we can only grow in the Sonlight. I want to encourage all listeners to stay with Him and to stay in His light because He is the only way to heaven.
Peer pressure and all different sorts of distractions in this life can tempt us to leave God but I want this podcast to highlight how He can carry us through by sharing personal stories, testimonies, scriptures, and prayer. Come and grow along with me as we continue to Soak in the Sonlight!
