Join us for Lesson 3 in our six-week summer series based on our Living in the Father’s Love Bible study. Today, Lisa and Laura talk take a deep dive into God’s purpose for our lives: a personal relationship with Him. What does a personal relationship with Jesus look like? What is mental prayer? What are my gifts? And did Lisa and Laura pass or fail their high school science classes? Get the answers to these questions (and so much more) by clicking play. It’s another great conversation you don’t want to miss!
Open your Heart to our key Scripture.
Philippians 3:7–11: But whatever gain I had, I counted as loss for the sake of Christ. Indeed I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as refuse, in order that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own, based on law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness from God that depends on faith; that I may know him and the power of his resurrection, and may share his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, that if possible I may attain the resurrection from the dead.

Invite Him in with this episode’s question for reflection.
Reflect on your life and think of a time when you practiced one of the following: receptivity (received a person exactly as he/she was and were a shelter for his/her soul), sensitivity (picked up on the needs of another person’s unspoken needs), generosity (went the extra mile for another person), and maternity (cherished, guarded, or protected another). In which area would I most like to grow?
