Listen "The Edge & Back Pt. 1: Hanging Out with God"

Episode Synopsis

In Part 1 of this soul-searching series "The Edge and Back: A Pastors Bout with Burnout", Pastor Lee Shaw challenges us to move beyond moments of spiritual intensity and into a daily, abiding relationship with the Father. Hanging Out with God draws deeply from Acts 19, Ephesians 1, and other scriptures, Shaw explores the question every believer must answer: Who are you? Using the story of Peter Pan as a powerful metaphor, he illustrates how forgetting where we come from leads to confusion about who we are and what we’re called to do.Through personal testimony, biblical insight, and pastoral urgency, Lee Shaw urges listeners to reject the separation between person, purpose, and position—reminding us that only in knowing the Father's voice can we walk in true peace, identity, and authority.Bible Passages CoveredActs 19 – Sons of Sceva, spiritual authorityRomans 8:28 – God's purpose through all thingsEphesians 1:11 – Predestination and purposeLuke 7:30 – Rejecting God's purposeIsaiah 9:6 – Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace1 Corinthians 15 – The gospel Paul preached#ChristianPodcast #Acts19 #IdentityInChrist #HearingGod #SpiritualAuthority #DailyFaith #LeeShaw #PurposeDrivenLife #FaithJourney #AbideInChrist #Romans828 #Ephesians1 #GospelTruth #PeterPanAnalogy #EverlastingFatherChapters00:00 – Opening Thoughts: Do you hear from God daily?02:00 – Acts 19 & the Church’s Lost Authority04:30 – Living in Extremes vs. Daily Relationship with the Father08:00 – Fatherhood, Discipline, and the Role of Standards10:50 – Hook & Peter Pan: Remembering Who You Are16:00 – Person.
