The Expected & UNEXPECTED Ways God Speaks to Us // Discernment Series (Part 2)
Manage episode 352392126 series 3432436
What are the normal or usual ways God communicates with us -- and what are the surprising, out of left field, sometimes even CRAZY ways? How do we discern if it's REALLY God speaking? And what exactly IS discernment, anyway? Well, for starters, Christian Discernment is a WHOLE body adventure with God -- our Divine Creator is continually creative in the ways He connects with us. As we delve into this topic, we'll share our own UNEXPECTED God stories with you -- and tips on how to spot God's communications with you throughout your day. Examples include Autumn's WACKY mountain top story (which showcases God's sense of humor!) and Danica's poignant experiences of God connecting with her at home in a couple rather UNCOMFORTABLE ways. And we will finally define what Christian Discernment IS and ISN'T! // Episode 4
