46:52Zechariah is a rich but often challenging book, full of vivid imagery and multifaceted messages that can feel overwhelming to unpack. In this episode, I reflect on Zechariah 4:10 and the idea of "small beginnings," a theme that speaks deeply to seasons of waiting, discouragement, and trust. Whether you’re familiar with this scripture or just starting to explore it, I invite you to join me in discovering how God uses humble moments and seemingly insignificant efforts for His extraordinary purposes. Let’s journey together through the text, drawing insights from other scriptures that illuminate how God sees and values the small things. My hope is that this episode encourages you to trust in His timing and embrace faithfulness in your own “small beginnings.” I’d love to hear your thoughts—how does this message resonate with your current season of life? Scripture References: Zechariah 4:10 – "Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin..." Luke 2:4–7 – The birth of Jesus in Bethlehem. Matthew 13:31–32 – The parable of the mustard seed: "The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed..." 1 Samuel 16:7–13 – God's choice of David as king, emphasizing that the Lord looks at the heart. Mark 12:41–44 – The widow’s offering of two small coins, valued greatly by God. Matthew 25:14–30 – The parable of the talents, highlighting faithfulness in small things. Philippians 1:6 – "He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion..." Deuteronomy 1:29–31 (loosely referenced) – Trusting in God's timing and provision. Micah 5:2 – Prophecy of Bethlehem as the birthplace of the ruler of Israel (loosely referenced). 1 Corinthians 1:26–31 – God choosing the weak and foolish things of the world to shame the strong. Job 2:11–13 – Job's friends sitting silently with him in his distress (paralleled in discussion). Isaiah 40:31 (loosely referenced) – Strength found in waiting upon the Lord. Matthew 10:14–15 – Dusting off one’s feet when not accepted, as instructed to the disciples. Matthew 5:5 – "Blessed are the meek..." James 1:27 – True religion: caring for orphans and widows in their distress. Proverbs 3:5–6 (implied) – Trusting in the Lord with all your heart.…
Hey everyone! I apologize for the randomness of this video, considering it's not my usual content. This sickness is really trying to stick around! In this video, I'll be putting together Part 1 of the LEGO Bonsai Tree Set. This was such a fun and relaxing build, especially since I've had so little strength. I hope you enjoy watching it as much as I enjoyed creating it! If I don't get the chance to upload again by the end of the month, I hope you all have a very safe, joyful, beautiful, and blessed Christmas and a Happy New Year! I cannot wait to engage with you all again and see what God has for us in 2025! :) Disclaimer: • This video is not sponsored by or affiliated with the LEGO Group.

1:28:54In this episode, I explore the beauty and challenges of family dynamics, from childhood memories to shifting roles in adulthood. Through scripture, theology, and personal reflections, we delve into the spiritual significance of family, the complexities of broken relationships, and the redemptive power of God’s love. Whether at the kid’s table or the adult table, every stage of family life holds lessons in love, forgiveness, and unity. P.S. I am so incredibly sorry about the length of this video. I planned on splitting it into two parts once I saw how long it was, but I couldn’t find a good stopping place. Moreover, since Thanksgiving is coming up next week, I decided to keep it full length. Thank you guys again for all your love and support - it truly means the world to me!…

1:21:35Listen in as I reflect on the intersection of faith, humility, and the challenges of staying true to Christ in a world full of distractions. Beginning with a powerful C.S. Lewis quote and a reading from Psalm 25, I explore themes of self-awareness, the recognition of sin, and our identity in Jesus Christ. Diving into the role of women from a biblical perspective, I challenge traditional views of submission, highlighting the Hebrew term "Ezer," which signifies strength and partnership. I also share personal struggles with rejection, self-worth, and healing, offering insights on navigating difficult relationships, overcoming peer pressure, and embracing God's grace. Tune in for an honest, raw conversation on finding peace and purpose through faith in Jesus Christ.…

47:41In this episode, I dive deep into the profound call to be "holy as He is holy," as outlined in 1 Peter 1:15-16. Join me as we explore the nature of God's holiness, the significance of our union with Christ, and the practical steps believers can take to embody this divine calling. I unpack the multifaceted concept of holiness—understanding it as both a positional status and a transformative journey. We also discover how Jesus Christ serves as our ultimate example and how His righteousness empowers us to pursue a life reflecting God's purity. Tune in to learn about daily surrender (how yielding to the Holy Spirit can shape our desires and actions); renewing the mind (the transformative power of Scripture and meditation); cultivating virtues (practical ways to develop the fruit of the Spirit in your life); repentance and community (the importance of ongoing repentance and engaging with a supportive Christian community); and endurance and grace (embracing trials as growth opportunities and relying on God's grace for true transformation). Join me on this journey toward holiness, where we recognize that it’s not about human effort, but about the grace that empowers us to live according to God's standards. Whether you’re a seasoned believer or just beginning your faith journey, this episode offers valuable insights for everyone seeking to reflect God's holiness in their daily lives.…
