In this series, so far we’ve explored the interconnected pillars of flourishing: justice, mercy, and humility. Today, we turn our attention to the critical role of personal piety—of walking humbly before God and standing firm in spiritual warfare. To guide us, we’ll draw inspiration from Isaiah 61 and the life and teachings of the great Puritan preacher Thomas Brooks. What started out as a four part series has turned into a vibrant series that will run every Monday and Thursday in January. As you listen to each episode, you immediately recognize that God's flourishing bears no resemblance to the attributes the world promotes as avenues to flourishing. God invites you to experience HIS flourishing available to all!DONATE You can help support this podcast by clicking our secure PayPal account.

This is Episode 3 of our series, “2025: Prayer for a Year of Flourishing.” In this episode we turn our attention to the second pillar of flourishing: mercy. Mercy is a thread woven deeply into God’s heart and mission, and it’s critical for individual and cultural transformation. We’ll also learn from the life of Corrie ten Boom, a woman who not only experienced God’s mercy in the darkest circumstances but shared it with the world.DONATE You can help support this podcast by clicking our secure PayPal account.

This is the second episode in this special series. The word JUSTICE has become a lightening rod of dissension in recent years, commandeered by people with personal agendas that create politcal and social confusion, even opening the door for anarchy and mayhem. The Church has sat back and remained silent, responding by being absent at the table of propelling God's KINGDOM agenda of being agents of Heaven's Justice. It is time to advance the flourishing of God that results in personal transformation and the flourishing of not only ourselves, but the communities in which we live! Let the Justice of Heaven roll like a flood!DONATE You can help support this podcast by clicking our secure PayPal account. For donation by check, make payable to Transform This City, P.O.

This is a multi-part series on flourishing. In this first episode we look closely at the picture of flourishing the Bible paints. You may be surprised at some of the things that flourishing is and find some of the things missing that the world says is flourishing. One thing is for sure, God intends for His children to flourish and live robust lives of zest, gusto, and vitality! (Yep, some of my favorite life words showing up again! I never set out to have life words...but these words are key for me in my personal life!)DONATE You can help support this podcast by clicking our secure PayPal account.
