Liberty and Freedom

Reflect on This

Season 1 Episode 28 - The recent celebration of Independence Day turned my thoughts toward liberty and freedom. Check out this episode, and see what Jesus and the apostle Paul said about liberty and freedom.
"Reflect on This" is the podcast version of short email devotionals I send to my family and friends, where I am sharing the things I am learning about the ways and nature of God, through applying my study of the Scriptures to the world around me.

"Manufacture Good"
Manufacture Good is a Christian ministry that offers 6-month paid apprenticeships to unemployed young men who are stuck in a rut. Lawrence Sheffield, the founder, says that they "are on a mission to help unemployed young men bust down one of the biggest employment barriers: looking at work as a mundane task.” Instead, Manufacture Good wants these men to view work as an opportunity to provide for themselves and for others, and to view work as a training ground for their hearts. These apprentices learn important life skills and valuable woodworking and metalworking skills which lead to employment opportunities. The program also provides mentoring in the process of discovering and following Christ in all that they do. The sale of the high quality furniture they produce supports the ministry. You can shop their catalog of fine home and office products, order a standard or custom piece of furniture, and learn more about this amazing ministry, at https://manufacturegood.org .
