Today on Bold Steps with Pastor Mark Jobe … we’re learning to choose grace … and release bitterness. If you’ve ever spent any time gardening, you know just how troublesome weeds can be.  At first, there seem to be just a few here and there, small enough to be ignored.  And suddenly, the next thing you know, they’ve spread all over … invading every space and choking out the life of your garden.  Well, just like weeds, the wounds and pains from our past can end up spreading into places they shouldn’t, if we don’t take care of them right away.  On today’s program, Mark concludes a message he started last week that focuses our attention on what to do when we experience hurt and pain.  It’s simply titled, Hurt, and we’ll be learning that if we don’t confront our hurts and disappointments, they can quickly overtake our lives … and become deep roots of bitterness.Support the show: https://www.moodyradio.org/programs/bold-steps-with-dr-mark-jobe/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

If we want to live a more godly life, Pastor Mark Jobe says it doesn’t just take a renewal of our spirit … but also a renewal of our mind. So often in Christian circles we discuss the importance of what it means to be spiritually "reborn" … and to reposition our hearts with God.  But a big part of this transformation that sometimes gets overlooked, is the need to renew our minds.  That’s the subject Mark is unpacking in today’s Bold Steps message titled … What it Means to Restore Our God-Given ID.Support the show: https://www.moodyradio.org/programs/bold-steps-with-dr-mark-jobe/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Are you leaning into the God-given power already inside you?  Or searching for strength somewhere else? That’s the topic today on Bold Steps … Today, we’re continuing a lesson about the power and promises we’ve been given by God … and it’s sad but true that so many Christians today are trying to solve their problems by changing what’s around them … rather than tapping into what’s already inside of them. Some Christians are wasting their time trying every ‘self-help’ trick in the book but … real change is only found in the presence and power of God.Support the show: https://www.moodyradio.org/programs/bold-steps-with-dr-mark-jobe/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today on Bold Steps with Pastor Mark Jobe, we’re learning about the penalty that comes with sin. Romans 3:23 says that ALL have sinned and fallen short of God’s standards.

Today on Bold Steps with Pastor Mark Jobe... we’ll discover the difference between the wide and the narrow way. To be a true “follower” of Christianity, it means making some difficult choices ... things that can make us uncomfortable.  In our current series, Jesus is really making some hard statements.

It will cause us to have a distorted view of God.

As a Christian, you’ve been given the power to awaken others to the spirit of God … but are you actually using this power?  Find out today on Bold Steps with Pastor Mark Jobe. Last time, Mark began a message about Releasing the Power of Resurrection … explaining how every Christian has been given the unique privilege to be a carrier of God’s redeeming power … and to awaken others to that same gift, bringing light into the dark places of life.  But even though we have this privilege, we sometimes let it go to waste … forgetting or simply overlooking the resurrection power God is offering us.  That’s why Mark is laying out four important steps we need to take to make sure we don’t waste this incredible gift.  The first point he makes, is that we can’t let other people’s issues be an obstacle to our own connection to God.  And to continue his lesson, we’re looking at a story in the book of Mark chapter 5, now in verse 35 … where Jesus has been called to the house of a man named Jairus, whose young daughter was dying.  But on His way to the house of Jairus, Jesus is interrupted by a woman seeking her own miracle.Support the show: https://www.moodyradio.org/programs/bold-steps-with-dr-mark-jobe/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
