Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series with Part One of a two-part message on gaining a genuine love for studying God's Word.

We often take an academic approach to Bible study, which causes it to feel tedious and dry. In this episode, Leslie unpacks three critical principles for shifting our mindset toward God'd Word, and helps us discover the joy and privilege of exploring Scripture from a relational - rather than a dutiful - motivation.

The Bible says that we are called to “redeem the time”, which means to seize each moment God has given us and use it for His glory, and not our own selfish agenda. As Leslie shares in this episode, effectively managing our time is a key way to avoid wasting our lives on temporal, meaningless things. Leslie unpacks two key principles for keeping our lives and time centered around God's priorities, no matter what season we are in.

Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series by offering key Biblical truths for seasons of loneliness. Loneliness is not God’s lifelong design for us, but seasons of loneliness are a necessary part of following the narrow way of the Cross. As Leslie reminds us in this episode, instead of seeing loneliness as a problem that needs to be avoided at all costs, we can choose to embrace it as an opportunity to grow closer to Christ than we ever thought possible. We do not serve a distant God who can’t relate to our struggles or meet our deepest needs, but the perfect fulfillment of every longing within our heart, even in seasons of loneliness.

Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series with Part One of a message about becoming a faithful Christian. In this episode, Leslie shares two powerful stories from Christian history, when ordinary men and women chose a path of faithfulness and availability to God - with world-changing outcomes. Leslie reminds us that there are no “special Christians”, only faithful Christians. Each of us has been called by God to impact the world for His glory.

Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series with Part Two of her message: What is a Biblical approach to health? Even though Scripture makes it clear that “life is more than food” (Lk. 12:23), it’s all too easy to behave otherwise. Whether we fall into the trap of self-indulgence and laziness when it comes to our eating habits, or struggle with becoming preoccupied with health food and fitness, it's all too easy to veer away from God's pattern in how we care for our physical bodies. As Leslie shares in this episode, living a healthful lifestyle can be a wonderful way to serve our families, bring discipline into our lives, and keep our bodies strong for the things God has called us to. But it can also become a form of idolatry if we build our lives around health instead of around Christ. In this episode, Leslie shares practical Biblical principles that can help us break through the fog of confusing messages and trends, and keep our focus on Christ when it comes to the area of health and wellness in today's world.

Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series with a timely episode on responding to cultural and political issues in a Biblical way. We often respond to cultural darkness with fear, anger or indifference. But as Leslie shares in this episode, we are called to engage with cultural issues in a Christ-like, God-honoring way, and shine Truth in the midst of a lost and dying world. We are called to go forward boldly into the battle like Esther, upheld by the mighty hand of our Defender and Deliverer. When we embrace the supernatural courage that He offers, we can become a world-changing tool in His hands — for such a time as this.

Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series with this Biblical perspective on handling feelings of rejection. Many women struggle with feeling rejected by others. The enemy often uses these feelings of rejection to cause us to doubt God’s love for us and distract us from our calling to shine the light of Christ to this world. In this encouraging message, Leslie shares two Scriptural principles to give us Heavenly perspective when we are struggling with rejection. When we understand who we are in Christ and grasp our value to Him, we can walk in confidence and joy, even if others reject us.

Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series with a Biblical look on contentment in singleness. Many voices in modern Christianity imply that it is not possible to be happy or fulfilled in the single years. It's true that God designed us for relationship with others and, for most of us, He designed us for marriage. But as Leslie shares in this episode, it is not true that Jesus alone isn’t enough to fulfill us at the deepest level, even if every form of human companionship is stripped away. God has a tremendous purpose for our single years. This episode shows us that contentment in Christ is possible by His enabling grace, whether married or single, whether in plenty or in want, whether in easy circumstances or difficult ones. Even if we never experience earthly marriage, we can be completely fulfilled by our relationship with Jesus Christ.

Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series with a practical and eye-opening look at true Biblical modesty. We often make the mistake of defining modesty only by the style of clothing someone is wearing, but as Leslie shares in this episode, modesty is far more of an outflow of someone’s heart condition than anything else. If we truly desire to showcase honor; to glorify Jesus and point eyes to Him, true modesty will be the natural outflow of our lives, not just in what we wear but in how we act, how we conduct our conversations, and how you show respect and honor to others around us. As Leslie reminds us in this message, true modesty is not dour and oppressive, but life-giving and liberating.

Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series with a practical look on becoming an effective speaker. Contrary to popular belief, it's not always those who are impressive by human standards that God chooses to deliver His most important messages. As Leslie shares in this episode, if we become willing and open vessels that God can work through, He can use our words to change lives for eternity, even if we don't feel qualified or perfectly polished. Whether you are a public speaker or simply seeking to share Truth with others in your life, this message will encourage and equip you with spiritual tools for effectively communicating Truth.
