Listen "So How Do We Experience True Freedom?"
Episode Synopsis
Hey y’all! Thanks for joining us for episode 17 of the Rooted and Grounded podcast. We looked up and it’s suddenly July, which means we only got one episode done in June. We must have been on island time! Speaking of which, this episode ended up being a mish mash of a lot of riveting thoughts, everything from refinishing a table to grooming a dog to illegal fireworks. We do end up by talking about the true meaning of freedom to us, just in time for the 4th of July. To make up for the riveting content, I did include a funny blooper at the end. Hope you enjoy!
We reference:
Galatians 5:1
It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.
2 Corinthians 3:17
Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.
Your Turn...
We only find true freedom and peace when we realize that God is sovereign and fully in control. Although He wants to use us to carry out His plan, He doesn’t need us tomake it happen AND he can work despite of us sometimes. What do we need to surrender to the Lord in order to experience true freedom?
Things we mentioned:
Firework shenanigans in the country, summer nights on the back porch
Books we’ve read: The Alice Network by Kate Quinn; Swan Song , Summer of ‘69, 28 Summers, & The Hotel Nantucket by Elin Hildebrand, Life’s Too Short by DariusRucker
Shows we’ve watched: Battle on the Beach-Oak Island (HGTV), College Baseball World Series (GO TENNESSEE VOLUNTEERS!), America’s Sweethearts on Netflix -DCC, Defending Jacob on Apple TV
