I don’t expect my closest friends to listen to all 781 of the podcasts I’ve recorded, or even most of them. I don’t expect them to listen week after week, and I find it awkward when someone apologizes to me for not keeping up with the podcasts. Most people over our fifteen-year run listen for a few months or years to find the trailhead of their own God Journey and then move on to other things. I’m fine with that. I do this podcast because I enjoy the conversations I stumble into, not as an obligation for people to keep up with but bless people in whatever season they find themselves.
That said, however, I don’t want anyone to miss the most recent one. It’s called Becoming One with Love and shares the journey of a good friend of mine from South Africa, Stephan Vosloo. If you’ve been on a journey of living loved for a while, you especially will want to hear from a brother who has discovered some really remarkable things about the joy of others-centered living and learning to love himself in his own brokenness and others in theirs. No, he hasn’t arrived and he will be the first to say he has a long way to go but this is a breath-taking view from his vantage point on the trail.
We couldn’t if it all into one podcast, so this Friday morning another piece of that conversation will air on The God Journey. You won’t want to miss that either.
Though the podcasts are always listed in the upper left of the Lifestream.org page, I rarely refer to a podcast in the blog here. To do so says I think something significant is going on here. I came away from my conversation with Stephan refreshed, encouraged, and challenged in some specific areas of my own journey. It’s like God opened a door to a new field of his love I’d yet discovered. Judging by the email I’ve received and the conversations I’ve had since airing the first part of our conversation, I know I’m not alone.
I’m not going to say much else, other than you will most likely thank me if you can take the time to listen to it.
Thanks for the heads up. I will add this podcast to my list to listen to this week. Merry Christmas, Mike
Wonderful conversation Wayne, thanks!
I have been of the strong impression, that down through the centuries right up until now, that our God and Father has whispered his heart longings for an appointed time, and as with the Mother of Jesus, they have treasured it in their heart, only to be in some cases uttered at his appointed time.
These individuals have nothing to prove or are looking to be noticed at all.
Thank God we are surround by a host of witnesses cheering us forward 🙂
