Send us Fan Mail"Have you ever heard the phrase, “You are what you eat?” Well, that also applies mentally & spiritually. Today’s episode is a challenge to check our media consumption and guard our speech."We are back again to continue our conversation as Pastor Teddy, a.k.a. Fred Kenney, Jr., offers a powerful examination of how our spiritual consumption shapes our outlook and speech. He challenges believers to consider whether they're getting more news than Scripture while reminding us that we operate from a position of victory in Christ.• What we consume spiritually impacts our overall outlook just as what we eat affects physical health• Christians have victory in Christ and should operate from that position of strength• Being "in the world but not of it" means engaging without being conformed• Corrupting talk grieves the Holy Spirit by Whom believers are sealed• The Holy Spirit gently convicts before, during and after we speak unwisely• Conviction draws us to the cross while condemnation drives us away• Christ didn't shed His blood so we could reflect the world but reflect Him• Sanctification is God's ongoing restoration process—declaring us perfect then working on us• Rejoicing, prayer, and thanksgiving lead to the peace that surpasses understanding• When we focus on who God is, our problems shrink in comparisonThe Lord bless you and keep you. The Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious to you. The Lord lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace! ~ Numbers 6:24-26Listen to Part 1 of this interview here:https://www.buzzsprout.com/2110391/episodes/16870855Does any of today's podcast resonate with you?
