Ep 25. Stable in the Lord
Monday Aug 07, 2023
Monday Aug 07, 2023
Stability is only found in Christ. Listen to learn more about being rooted, grounded, and stable in the Lord.
Scriptures from Today's Episode:
Psalms 1:1-4 KJV "Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away."
Ephesians 4:14 “That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;”
John 4:13-14 “Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again: But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.”

Ep.21 When Things Don’t Work Out
Monday Jul 10, 2023
Monday Jul 10, 2023
Hello there! Here is a message to my brothers and sisters in Christ out there.
“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.” Romans 8:28
God will work things out for the good and for His glory. Not our will Lord. But let Your will be done. In Jesus' Name, Amen.

Ep 20. Here I am Lord
Monday Jun 26, 2023
Monday Jun 26, 2023
Let’s ask God what He wants us to do in our lives. He knows what’s best, and He knows the future. I pray that we all do everything that He wants us to do in our lives for His Glory (and His Glory alone).
Here are the Bible verses from today's episode. Feel free to check them out on your own!
1 Samuel 3:1-10 KJV
“And the child Samuel ministered unto the Lord before Eli. And the word of the Lord was precious in those days; there was no open vision. And it came to pass at that time, when Eli was laid down in his place, and his eyes began to wax dim, that he could not see; And ere the lamp of God went out in the temple of the Lord, where the ark of God was, and Samuel was laid down to sleep; That the Lord called Samuel: and he answered, Here am I. And he ran unto Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou calledst me. And he said, I called not; lie down again. And he went and lay down. And the Lord called yet again, Samuel. And Samuel arose and went to Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou didst call me. And he answered, I called not, my son; lie down again. Now Samuel did not yet know the Lord, neither was the word of the Lord yet revealed unto him. And the Lord called Samuel again the third time. And he arose and went to Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou didst call me. And Eli perceived that the Lord had called the child. Therefore Eli said unto Samuel, Go, lie down: and it shall be, if he call thee, that thou shalt say, Speak, Lord; for thy servant heareth. So Samuel went and lay down in his place. And the Lord came, and stood, and called as at other times, Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel answered, Speak; for thy servant heareth.”
Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV
“Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.”
Here is an encouraging song about letting God know you are willing to be used by Him. “Here I Am Lord”

Ep 18. Listen to Your Elders, They Know Stuff
Monday Jun 12, 2023
Monday Jun 12, 2023
Do you ever feel like you don't know what to do in life? Do you ever feel confused as to what to do? Well, praying to God is the first step we should take for direction. It would also be worthwhile to listen to the wise counsel of the elders at your church. They know a lot, and their wisdom can give us guidance in this life. They can also pray with us as we ask God for direction. Take a listen to learn more about how one king had to decide between listening to the elders and his peers. Let's see how that turned out for him...
Here are the Bible verses from today's episode. Feel free to check them out on your own!
1 Kings 12:1-15 (Amplified)
"My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children."Hosea 4:6 KJV
"Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it." Matthew 7:13-14 KJV

Ep 17. The ”Boring” Christian
Monday Jun 05, 2023
Monday Jun 05, 2023
Have you ever been called "boring" for your faith in Jesus Christ? Have you ever been excluded from certain things since people saw you as weird or awkward for being a Christian? Ever felt lonely as a Christian? Well, take a listen. I have some words to encourage you, friend. :)
Luke 2:41-52 KJV"Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the passover. And when he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem after the custom of the feast. And when they had fulfilled the days, as they returned, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph and his mother knew not of it. But they, supposing him to have been in the company, went a day's journey; and they sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance. And when they found him not, they turned back again to Jerusalem, seeking him. And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions. And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers. And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I have sought thee sorrowing. And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father's business? And they understood not the saying which he spake unto them. And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them: but his mother kept all these sayings in her heart. And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man."
1 Timothy 4:12"Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity."
John 8:36"If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed."
1 Peter 2:9"But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;"

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!
