Jesus’ most surprising Apostle

FIRST15
About this episode

As we continue our week looking at the call in 2 Chronicles to turn from wicked ways, today we’re going to look at what we turn to. The reason that sin is so damaging is that it pulls us away from intimacy with our Father. Yet today, God is inviting us to turn back to him and receive his incredible grace and love.

Our Scripture for today comes from Matthew 9:9, and today's worship is Your Will, Your Way by Bryan & Katie Torwalt.

In today’s First15 Podcast we wanted to give you a preview of a new Guided Prayer that our friend RaeAnn Beckham wrote titled, “Safe Place.” RaeAnn does a beautiful job of reminding us about God’s desire to make us new and to do so gently and with unending kindness. Her prayer helps us remember that life with Jesus is a journey, one that he takes with us every step of the way.
