Episode 1189: The Source of Real Change

What do you really need to change your life this year? A new job? A bigger paycheck? A fresh start somewhere else? In Acts 3, a man asked for money, but what he received instead changed everything. Today, we’re unpacking how real, lasting transformation doesn't come from silver or gold. It comes from Jesus. In a world full of temporary solutions and quick fixes, we need to be reminded that the life change our souls are craving can only come through Him. So as 2026 unfolds, let’s shift our focus off the things that can’t satisfy, and open ourselves to the healing, freeing, life-giving power of Jesus Christ. If you’re tired of the same old patterns and hungry for something more, today is your invitation to reach out for the only One who can truly make you new.Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion. Grounded in Scripture and shaped by Eastside’s conviction that God’s grace is for everyone, each episode invites you to discover God’s presence and activity in your life.
