Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Beyond Just Christian Podcast, Brenna explores chapter three of the Old Testament book, Ezra. As she discusses the themes of praise, time, and change, she highlights the verses that inspired her personal reflections from studying this passage.  By the end of this episode, Brenna hopes listeners will be encouraged to trust that whatever God begins, He will surely finish.  Self-Reflection Questions: What is God rebuilding in my life that seems to be taking more time than I would like?What can my praise offer to a situation? How can I praise along the way with every step toward?What changes in my life am I currently mourning? Why is the act of lament necessary in moving forward?  Scriptures Mentioned: Daniel 1:1-2Ezra 1:1-8Ezra 2:1-2, 64-70Ezra 3:1-13Ezra 6:14Isaiah 14:27Revelation 3:7Job 42:2 References: Topical Bible: The Rebuilding of the Temple   Buy my Bible/Supplies here: 1.
