Listen "Don't Look Back EP. 199"
Episode Synopsis
When Jesus said, "No one, after putting his hand to the plow and looking back, is fit for the Kingdom of God" (Luke 9:62), He didn’t mince words. Christianity is about forward
motion. It’s about living today with purpose and trust in God’s plan. The past has its lessons, but it’s not where we’re meant to live. You can’t change yesterday, and you can’t thrive in tomorrow, it’s today that matters.
In this podcast, we’ll talk about what it means to live fully in the moment while building a foundation for a brighter tomorrow. We’ll explore how dwelling on past hurts or longing for the "good old days" can stall our spiritual growth. Whether it’s the Israelites looking back at Egypt or Lot’s wife turning to see Sodom, the lesson is clear, looking back keeps us from moving forward.
But thriving today isn’t just about leaving the past behind, it’s about intentional living. It’s about recognizing that the ordinary moments, the mundane tasks, and even the unexpected flat tires are part of God’s greater plan. How we respond to life’s interruptions shapes our future. We’ll talk about embracing the process of growth, one imperceptible step at a time, and trusting that God is at work in every moment.
Join me as we uncover how focusing on today, being present, forgiving the past, and walking with faith—prepares us for eternity. Because the only way to make tomorrow better is to live faithfully today. Let’s look forward together.
