SHOWNOTES
Candace is BACK with Tara-Leigh Cobble to continue their conversation on the connection between God and Jesus (pssst … He is still the same person)
Think about this: if Jesus were not God, but was just a man, how would that change the way you live? You likely may stop seeing Jesus as Divine and see him as a man who was a bit crazy at times; as a man who ran around claiming to be God, the fulfillment of the Old Testament. And you likely would not place as much weight into what He says or how He guides you.
Candace and Tara-Leigh discuss the idea that the God of the Universe, who created everything, came to us in human form to save us. God desires a relationship with us and he wants us to flourish in life. He sent His son so that we could flourish. Everything that Jesus teaches us is for our joy, our thriving, and our flourishing. And when we live life knowing HIs love for us and how much He cares for us, that will pour out onto those around us.
In this episode, you will hear Candace and Tara-Leigh discuss:
- Why the birth of Jesus is just as important as the death of Jesus
- The moments in the New Testament where Jesus revealed Himself and moments He did not, and why He chose to withhold who He was to certain groups.
- A moment in Candace’s life where she had to push through her anger and lean into Christ-like humility.
- What Dancing With The Stars taught Candace about how much God picks us up and guides us through hard seasons.
Scripture Memory:
1 John 5:1-3 (CSB) Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the Father also loves the one born of him. This is how we know that we love God’s children; when we love God and obey His commands. For this is what love for God is: to keep His commands.
