Lifestream.org Podcast
by Lifestream Ministries
Simply put I am the son of a farmer, a husband to Sara, the father of Julie and Andrew, and a grandpa to some delightful children. I consider myself a brother on a journey, willing to share what God has given to me in any way that will help others discover the joy of life in him. As you will see the Lord has been gracious to me, and everything he has done in me and through me is by his mercy and grace. I hope the real story you glean from these pages is a greater awareness of God's unfolding work in you, not in me. That's a story worth knowing."I have been on a life-long journey to sort out what it means to live in the love of the Father. I also have an unremitting desire to help other people who are on that journey or want to go on it, which is why I maintain Lifestream.org. I enjoy helping people discover how to live loved by God and to live freely in healthy friendships with other believers. As we learn to do that, we'll also find that we will quite naturally become a conduit of Go

Finding Church Now Available in Audio
Imagine you laying back in your easier chair or being caught in an exasperating commute to work and me sitting right beside you reading to you from https://www.lifestream.org/content/finding-church. OK, that doesn't even sound fun to me. I wouldn't sit next to you and read, we would get to talk....

Engage 24: The Adventure Of A Lifetime
The final episode makes it clear that we haven’t arrived yet, but merely stand on the edge of the most amazing adventure available to us—how can we explore the vastness of God’s love and character not only in this age, but also for all eternity? On this last day of the year, I get to post the…

Engage #23: That Your Joy Might Be Full
Everything God does in our lives is so that his joy might be in us and that our joy might be full. He makes a way for us to be at home in him and he disciplines us so that we can find the fruitfulness and fulfillment of his life instead of being tyrannized by the twistedness of our flesh. Engage…

Engage #22: Tuning To God's Frequency
Many of us were taught to find security in the approval of others, monetary success, religious activity and belonging to the right group. What if those aren’t the best signals to follow? It may seem difficult to separate the static of the world from his frequency, but it really isn't. Here are…

Engage #21: The Only Thing That Counts
We find our way into the simplicity of following him as we ignore the obligations and expectations that others can put on us and live in the confidence that there’s only one thing that matters to God—that whatever we do is the fruit of a growing trust in him expressing itself in our love for...

What's Going On Around Here?

Engage #20: Letting God Win Our Trust
Faith is not a tool we’re supposed to produce to manipulate God to do what we want. God wins us into faith by showing us who he is and how he is working in our lives. The more we grow to trust him the less we’ll react to trouble by trying to save ourselves and then we’ll be able to embrace how…

Engage #19: Life In the Spirit
You do not learn to live this life in Jesus by wrapping your head around a different set of principles. You actually grow to understand this life as you respond to the Spirit guiding you into his truth. Over time the draw of the Spirit will become more powerful than the pull of the world or our...
-
Engage #18: One Step At a Time
Few of us really live in the moment, where God is most easily seen. At times we live in the past by our regrets or by trying to recapture some past experience with him. Sometimes we live absorbed in the future with anxieties about what might happen, or trying to fulfill the plans and hopes we…

Engage #17: A Life of Love
Jesus invites us into a kingdom that thrives in love. Learning to live in the reality of his love for us and sharing that love with others, leads us away from the tyranny of always having to have our own way. Then instead of seeking what we want, we can lay down our lives for others and see more...
-
Engage #14: NATO Living
Our trust in God is undermined every time we try to win God to our agenda and measure his love for us based on our own expectations. If we can live not attached to the outcomes we desire, we’ll discover that he knows best about everything and will lead us into far greater joy and purpose than…

Engage 15: What About Sin?
Religion is a shame-management system that only increases our captivity as we try to be better for God. The reason God forgave our sin in Christ, is so that we can come to know him without the shame of our failures and by doing so become transformed by his love. Engage is our unfolding video…

Engage #14: What About the Bible?
The Bible was never meant to be a rule book filled with condemnation, but the story of humanity coming to understand God’s nature over thousands of years. Learn to read it that way and it will be a valuable resource of insight and wisdom into God and how he works in the world. Engage is our...

Engage #11: Sharing Your Journey
It is Jesus' joy to knit each of us into the family he is building in the earth. As you learn to follow him he will bring others into your life that can share the converstions that will encourage each other to live in him more deeply rather than bog each other down with the dynamics of religious...
-
Engage #10: The Freedom To Fail

-
Engage #9: Praying for Real
Prayer is not trying to get God to do what we want, but communicating with him about the issues and circumstances that concern us. It doesn’t happen in a prescribed period each day, but becomes a never-ending conversation where he lets us in on his insight. Engage is our unfolding video series...
