Beyond Just Christian
EP. 80: The Testing of Our Character

In this episode of Beyond Just Christian Podcast, Brenna discusses how the Lord tests our hearts with each role we’re in to further develop our character.  Using Joseph’s experiences as an example, listeners can be reminded that when God’s hand is in our story, not even adversity, holdup, nor age can halt His plans for us. 

By the end of this episode, Brenna hopes that listeners will be encouraged that the Lord is faithful to fulfill His promises for our future. 

 

 

Self-Reflection Questions: 

  1. What roles did Joseph have throughout his life? What roles have I had throughout my life?
  2. Have I ever questioned or doubted God’s plans for my life due to life’s hardships? If yes, explain in 1-3 sentences.
  3. Has God ever given or shown me certain dreams, clues, or affirmations of a future dream and/or goal being achieved?
  4. In what ways has the Lord tested my character and my heart?
  5. Am I currently in my dream role or working towards such? Explain.
  6. Joseph faced adversity both within his family and other outside adversaries. Who in my life has made the Lord’s plans feel far and nearly impossible for me to reach?
  7. What’s a life lesson I learned from this podcast episode? How can I apply this lesson to my own life and environment?

 

 

Scriptures Mentioned: 

  • Luke 16:10

•Genesis 37:14-17 

  • Genesis 45:8
  • Psalm 105:9
  • Ecclesiastes 7:8
  • You can read about Joseph’s whole life from Genesis CH’s 37-50

Beyond Just Christian
EP. 76: Life Beyond the Womb Featuring Sarah Tarnowski

In this episode of Beyond Just Christian Podcast, Brenna is joined by pro-life advocate Sarah Tarnowski. Born in Manhattan, New York, Sarah was raised by a single mother, who had two abortions before her. Growing up, Sarah had the conviction that abortion was wrong but lacked the knowledge of what it entailed.

In 2019, Sarah attended the Day of Mourning, held in Albany, New York, which was a day to grieve and repent for the deaths of the unborn. Since that event, Sarah’s been able to support her convictions with a new perspective.  Today, she is the central PA city director of Love Life, and her mission is to share the importance of motherhood while advocating for the existence of children.

 

By the end of this episode, Brenna hopes listeners are encouraged that life beyond the womb is beautiful both for the mother and the child.

 

Furthermore, listeners will hear Brenna and Sarah discuss:

  • Love Life and the services they offer for families, mothers, and children
  • Ways to advocate for life both respectfully and without condemnation
  • Arguments for abortion
  • How abortion can retraumatize women
  • Unhealthy coping mechanisms and unaddressed emotion after abortion
  • Why women think pregnancy will jeopardize their chances of success
  • Encouragement for women who want to follow their dreams and goals while being mothers
  • Reminders that motherhood is a gift and not a curse

 

 

About Love Life:

Love Life was founded in 2016 by Justin Reeder.

Love Life’s Ministry Statement: LOVE LIFE IS UNITING AND MOBILIZING THE CHURCH TO CREATE A CULTURE OF LOVE AND LIFE THAT WILL RESULT IN AN END TO ABORTION AND THE ORPHAN CRISIS.

Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it. You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb. You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered! I can’t even count them; they outnumber the grains of sand.”

Beyond Just Christian
EP. 74: Differences Between the Prudent & The Simpleton

In this episode of Beyond Just Christian Podcast, Brenna discusses the clear differences between the prudent from the simpleton. Using Solomon as our example, we see how easy it is to choose our way over God’s way though we know exactly what He commands us to do. Despite how knowledgeable we may be, we are still prone to choosing wrongly because we are still sinful human beings.

 

By the end of this episode, Brenna hopes that listeners will continue applying God’s wisdom to their lives, thus continuing to honor Him as wise people.

 


Self-Reflection Questions:

  1. Knowing what the Bible says about the simpleton, how have I fallen into any similar tendencies, patterns, and/or behaviors of one?  Write and address how I have turned my heart away from the Lord and rejected personal application of His wisdom.
  2. Knowing what the Bible says about the prudent person, how have I demonstrated a prudent-like attitude in my own life? Write and address how I have succeeded with these similar tendencies, patterns, and/or behaviors.
  3. Often, we know what we are commanded to do, and we can succeed for a long time before we fall. How can those who are wise and gifted fall into temptations/sinful patterns? Why are we prone to choose our own way although God has already made it clear what is right in His sight?
  4. What traits differ from the prudent from the simpleton? Creating your own chart, what are some words/observations you’d use to differentiate the prudent from the simpleton? EX: The Prudent: Considers every available option and prays before acting. The Simpleton: Jumps headfirst without contemplation 
  5. As prudent people, we are called to have self-awareness and awareness of others around us. How can we be honest in the evaluation of ourselves as we move forward?

Beyond Just Christian
EP. 70: Jesus is Stronger Than My Guilt

In this episode of Beyond Just Christian Podcast, Brenna discusses how our belief in Jesus surpasses the guilt we feel due to sin. Using Scriptural references to describe what guilt and belief both mean, Brenna also uses two men as examples of coming humbly before the Lord for mercy. The first man is the father of a demon-possessed boy (Mark 9:14-27), and the second man is a tax collector (Luke 18:9-14).


This message is for the individual who…

  • is heavily burdened by their guilt from past or present sin
  • is suffering from guilt, whether their actions were intentional or accidental
  • is struggling to believe Jesus is stronger than their feelings and disbelieving that Jesus can relieve them of their guilt
  • is struggling to believe that Jesus really did die for the sake of their sins and loves them despite these sins
  • is aware they cannot save themself


By the end of this episode, Brenna hopes that listeners remember that God’s love for them is greater than their feelings of guilt and know how to respond when these feelings show up again.



Scriptures Mentioned:

  • 1 John 3:20
  • Psalm 32:5
  • Leviticus 5:5
  • Psalm 19:12-13
  • Romans 3:25-26
  • Romans 10:9-11
  • John 3:15-17
  • Mark 9:14-27
  • Luke 18:9-14
  • Matthew 5:5
  • Proverbs 14:9
  • 2 Corinthians 5:18-19

 

 

Self-Reflection Questions:

  1. How do I make it a habit of confessing my sin to the Lord without hiding it?
  2. How do I become more aware of my sin and turn from sinning deliberately?
  3. According to Scripture, how am I set free from guilt and made innocent of sin? How am I made right in God’s sight?
  4. What are the benefits/rewards of believing that Jesus died on the cross and rose again for us?
  5. How does God bless and give mercy to the humble?
  6. How can I acknowledge my guilt and seek God for reconciliation?
  7. In what ways can I remind myself, during my shortcomings, that Jesus is stronger than my guilt?

Self-Reflection Questions:

  1. What does a lukewarm person look like compared to a fully devoted Christ-follower? Create a chart of the qualities of each and how they differ from one another.
  2. How can I listen to God and understand what He is saying to me today?
  3. How can I ensure that I keep my promises to God? What promises have I broken to Him before?
  4. How can I be a doer and not just a hearer? What do I need to do to succeed in my yes being yes and my no being no?
  5. What sins have been ongoing in my life that have been detrimental in my spiritual walk/ relationship with the Lord?
  6. How is God’s Word good for discipline, reproof, and correction? How have I seen/felt the Lord’s discipline?
  7. Go to God in prayer to confess, repent, and ask for His support.

Beyond Just Christian
Ep. 62: Do My Efforts Bear Fruit?

In this episode of Beyond Just Christian Podcast, Brenna dives into the parable of the barren fig tree. Found in Luke 13:6-9, this short passage presents to us the story of a man who is frustrated when he doesn’t see the fruit of his labor.

Sound familiar?

Similar to how the man felt, we may be prone to easily give up or be quick to assume our efforts are useless. By the end of this episode, Brenna hopes that listeners will decide if it’s wise to quit or continue their efforts.

 

 

Scriptures Mentioned:

  • Luke 13:6-9
  • Hebrews 11:1
  • Psalm 128: 1-2
  • John 15:1-7
  • 2 Corinthians 5:7
  • Ecclesiastes 5:18-20
  • Ecclesiastes 2:24-25
  • Ecclesiastes 3:9-13
  • 1 Corinthians 3:7


Self-Reflection Questions:

1. How often am I disappointed when I don’t see the development and/or advancement from what I want I’ve put my time and efforts into? How do I overcome these feelings of disappointment when I don’t see anything happening?


2. It helps to have another helping hand with achieving our goals, whether it’s a project, a dream, or any kind of growth in our lives. Just as the gardener was the helper of this man’s project, who in my life supports me? How does God support me?


3. How does waiting test my patience/trust in the Lord for His intervention? How is waiting beneficial for my own growth?


4. Why is it important for us to continue working while we wait?


5. How do I know if it’s the appropriate time to cut the tree down or to give my efforts one more chance. Are there any examples in my life where God has commanded me to continue or to discontinue my efforts with something?


6. What is the barren fig tree in my currently? Write down your specific goals, projects, dreams, and/or fruits you are waiting to see grow.
