According to recent polls, 65% of Americans feel like the last few years has spun them into an identity crisis, 68% feel defeated, 61% feel alone, and 48% feel hopeless. How can our souls flourish in the midst of those statistics?
Well, today on the 4:13 Podcast, author, speaker, pastor, and theologian, Dominic Done, will reveal seven gifts God has provided for the health of your soul. He’ll cast a much-needed vision of hope, showing us who God says we already are, no matter how we may feel.
On this Good Life episode, I’m taking you to my room of peace—my office! This is where I write, research, think, pray, and ponder what the Lord has been teaching me.
Even though I can’t see it with my eyes, it matters to me what’s in my office because each item plays a special role in reminding me that life is good. This audio tour just might inspire you to create your own room of peace—perhaps with a room or corner in your home—but more importantly, in your heart.
If you’ve been listening to my Good Life podcast episodes, I hope you’re beginning to see what the good life really is. And I’ll bet your good life looks pretty similar to mine!
Perhaps you haven’t been to a Lionel Richie concert (if that’s your thing) or ventured out on an epic road trip in a camper or traveled to Oxford—all of which are good life moments to me. But I bet there are things in your life that remind you of God’s goodness and the way He’s working through you.
On the surface, the book of Amos doesn’t sound like a happy formula for the good life. However, every condemnation he gives serves as an invitation, a call for us to “seek God and live” (Amos 5:4). Amos’ prophesy prompts us to care for others—displaying true righteousness, not just religious ritual—and the result will change you and those around you. You’ll discover Amos is promoting the God life, and the God life is the good life!
Join me for this 8-session video-based study of the book of Amos, and together we’ll unearth the gems hidden within one of the most overlooked books in the Bible. You’ll be assured of God’s presence, grow deeper in faith, and find renewed hope that life is good … even when it’s not.
Today the microphone has been flipped around in the podcast closet. Instead of me asking the questions and interviewing a special guest, I’m going to be the one who’s interviewed. Doesn’t that sound fun?
My good friend and co-host in the Bible Study Bistro Facebook Group, Paula Voris, joins me on the podcast and asks all kinds of questions about what we can learn from the Old Testament book of Amos. That’s because I have just spent the past year studying Amos while writing my new Bible study, Amos: An Invitation to the Good Life.
This is another Good Life episode where I share with you moments in time that make me smile—moments from my good life!
That’s because I’m celebrating the release of my new Bible study, Amos: An Invitation to the Good Life (Lifeway, August 15, 2022), and I wanted you to see that life is … good!
So today, I’m taking you with me to my happy place, Oxford, England!
