Set Apart Podcast

Leslie continues the Overcoming series with a beautiful testimony of Corrie ten Boom's childlike dependence upon God. As modern Christians we are often led by our own human understanding and logic rather than by God's Spirit. We often forget the fact that God cares about the details of our lives and wants to direct our steps and script our story. Corrie ten Boom's life gives us an amazing example of what it means to trust God with childlike faith and wait for His guidance with absolute confidence that He will lead us.

Leslie continues her Overcoming series with by unpacking Catherine Booth's spiritual passion. Catherine Booth overcame constant physical pain and weakness, as well as many difficult circumstances, to become one of the most powerful voices for the Gospel in her generation. Catherine's life shows an amazing example of God's strength being made perfect in our weakness. Her overcoming spirit reminds us what is possible when we "rise up on His strength and resolve to conquer."

Leslie continues the Overcoming Series with an inspiring look at George Müller's example of becoming fully available to God. In modern Christianity, it's easy to slide into mediocrity, approaching our lives with self-focus instead of Christ-focus. George Müller lived radically for Jesus - not because he chose a life that was exciting or adventurous, but because he became fully available to God right where he was. If you are wondering whether God work powerfully through your life even in your present circumstances, this message will cast a vision for what is possible when we cultivate a "yes, Lord" mindset.

Leslie continues the Overcoming Series with a powerful peek into Mary's Slessor's incredible courage. For most of us, it is extremely counterintuitive to go toward danger instead of away from it. But throughout history, God’s kingdom has advanced when His people were proactive instead of reactive in living out their faith. Mary Slessor was amazingly proactive in taking the Gospel to places where other missionaries refused to go. And even though she lived generations ago, we can learn a tremendous amount from her example of absolute dependence upon the faithfulness and enabling power of God. She sprinted toward danger instead of retreating from it.

Leslie continues the Overcoming series with a powerful reminder that this world is not our home. When we study the lives of historical Christians, one of the most important lessons we can learn is what it means to endure, to stay the course, and to not grow weary in well doing. In this episode, Leslie offers stories, Scriptures, and principles that illustrate the fact that we are not home yet. No matter how overlooked or under appreciated we may feel in our journey here on this earth, we have an exceedingly great reward awaiting us. If you are feeling weary or discouraged, this episode can inspire and uplift you with a Heavenly perspective.
