Leaving the Shallows- The Meaning Behind the Name

Welcome to the first episode of Leaving the Shallows Podcast with Heather Bradley and Jackie Skanderup. Join us as we discuss the meaning behind the new name of our podcast:  our desire to see God’s people grow deeper in Him, to dig deep roots, and to flourish in the things of God. We want to help you get out of the shallow end of your walk with Christ and develop a deep relationship with Jesus. In order to leave the shallow end, we must dive into the deep waters that require faith, trust, and surrender in Him. The Bible tells us in Psalm 42:7 that  “deep calls to deep.”  Jesus is inviting us into so much more than we realize!  The Christianity today seems to stay “safe” in the shallow end.  However, when we stay “safe”, we don’t grow into who God calls us to be.  We don’t want you to stay there!Jesus is calling us out, deeper - where we can’t touch the bottom - but He is holding our heads above the water, He is giving us the breath we need to stay afloat!  It’s in relationship with Jesus that we lose our fear of drowning, and that we gain a firm foundation.  Let us know how you liked it by subscribing on our podcast platform and by sharing with your friends!  Don’t forget to leave us a review!  You can also find us on Instagram and YouTube.We are so glad you are here!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leavingtheshallows/Youtube: @LeavingtheShallowsPodcast
