43 | ARMY STRONG - Put on the Full Armor of God

In this episode, Major Jamie Hemingway, of the South Carolina Army National Guard shares spiritual encouragement as well as some very practical biblical weapons from God's word.  We read in Ephesians 6:10-18. Paul says, "Finally, BE STRONG in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes". 
This is the reason we are sharing a series on The Armor of God. We want you, our brothers and sisters in CHRIST, to be ready, equipped, and confident for any battle you come face to face with today. YOU are a WARRIOR, God loves you and He will NEVER leave you nor forsake you. Spoiler alert - Christ already defeated satan and the grave, and because we are fighting in the LORD'S ARMY, we are going STAND FIRM in the armor of God! We are Warriors! Stay ARMY STRONG!

42 | Walking Warriors - Put On the Full Armor of God

Welcome to a NEW SEASON of the Walking with Kelley and Kristy podcast. In this episode, we introduce a new season of "Walking Warriors". This world is a battlefield, and in Ephesians chapter 6, Paul encourages the Church of Ephesus, and the Christian Church today, to BE STRONG in the LORD and in HIS mighty power. He encourages us to put on the full armor of God! So in this season, we want to do the same for you.  We are Warriors, and we need to be fully equipped and ready to FIGHT, the good fight of Faith, each and every day. Put on the full armor of God and Keep Walking!

41 | Wrapping up Walking in our Calling

In this episode, we wrap up a season of what it looks like to walk in our calling and what it means to know and walk out this life in our true identity in Christ.  As unique as we all are, is the uniqueness of how God can use our lives to reach out and connect to others. God has called each of us to share Christ as we go about our daily routines.  We hope you have been encouraged as we have, as we've walked beside friends and leaders in our own community, who are impacting this world for Christ. Be bold in your faith, and walk in the confidence of Christ!

40 | God's Word - A Strong Foundation Through Every Shifting Season

In this episode, Mary McCallum shares with us how a strong foundation of faith and the power of God's word has helped to lead and guide her steps as she walks out life. Mary is a pastor's wife and mom to three precious boys, but also a very gifted worship leader and teacher. During this sweet conversation, Mary reminds us that as believers, our calling doesn't change, but we will go through shifts, or changes in direction, where God wants to use our gifts and talents in ways we might not have expected. Our obedience and participation to follow wherever He leads is a key to experiencing joy and abundance each and every day. We pray you are encouraged by Mary's testimony to keep walking out your own faith journey, with your eyes fixed on Jesus, knowing that He is working all things for good, even when things don't feel good. He loves you and we are so thankful you would spend these few minutes walking with us today.

38 | You're Qualified BECAUSE You're HIS

In this episode, we share some practical lessons God is teaching us about calling. The bible is full of real examples of people who trusted God as they walked out His purposes and plans for their lives. Habakkuk couldn't see God's plan as evil prevailed all around Him, but his prayers turned to praise as he waited on the Lord. The words of Moses in the book of Deuteronomy still challenge us today, as they did in Old Testament days, to cut away the things that are hindering and separating us from God. We too have a choice to make - will we follow God, commit to his plans, and walk in His ways - with all of our heart, mind, and soul?  We get to choose. God continues to challenge and equip us, as we walk in our true identity and calling. If you've ever experienced a season of struggle, heartache, or absolute blessing in your life, and you've also felt the very near presence of God walking with you through that season - you better believe God wants to use your story to bring encouragement to someone else. You're qualified because you're HIS!
 
“Even though the fig trees have no blossoms, and there are no grapes on the vines; even though the olive crop fails, and the fields lie empty and barren; even though the flocks die in the fields, and the cattle barns are empty, yet I will rejoice in the Lord! I will be joyful in the God of my salvation!”
‭‭Habakkuk‬ ‭3‬:‭17‬-‭18‬ ‭NLT
Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness. When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.  Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.  Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”
