More Than Bread
It's not enough to get into God's Word, we need to let His Word get into us. "More Than Bread" is a podcast featuring Pastor Dan Nold from Calvary Church in State College, PA. It focuses on simply reading the Bible (with a few comments) in the hopes that listening to God's Word, learning from God's Word and leaning into God's Word will shape our hearts, minds, and souls to bring us life. As Jesus said, "We do not live by bread alone, we live by every Word that comes from the mouth of God."
More Than Bread
A Life of Prayer #4 -- John 14-16 -- His Words to us today...
This episode will be a bit different. Mostly scripture, less explanation. In the last episode we started unpacking the acronym PUSH; "Pray until something happens." If there is a passage filled with the words of Jesus calling us to persevere in prayer, to push when times are tough, it’s gotta be the words that Jesus spoke to his followers just before he went to the cross. So I’m going to read those words, and make a comment or two. But mostly just read His words.
So put yourself there, even now. You don’t know it, but you are a handful of hours away from the crucifixion of Jesus. You are walking with him in the evening hours, through a vineyard, sort of a public park, and He is giving you your final instructions, think of it as a half-time talk before the second half of the greatest game you will ever play. And he starts with, "Do not let your heart be troubled."
Listen to his words…
