Walk With Him

16 | Deep Dive: How Will You Carry His Name?

Lumiet Media — Sat, 20 Jan 2024 06:00:00 -0600

As disciples of Jesus Christ, what we say and do is under constant scrutiny by those around us. Because we take His name upon us, we represent everything He stands for, and as such we must conduct ourselves accordingly. We explore a talk by Abigail Allen on improving our discipleship so that we stand out as a light to the world.

In this episode we discuss:

Starting small & being consistent is the key to making lasting habits as we strive to develop attributes of Jesus Christ
Seeking every opportunity to serve others sets us apart from an increasingly selfish world
With our daily interactions, we can be more intentional in lifting others, not tearing them down
Utilizing personal revelation to determine the next steps as we grow as a disciple of Christ
Faith is not just the absence of doubts—doubts show the areas of greatest weakness

Lumiet Media — Thu, 11 Jan 2024 06:00:00 -0600

Regardless of your religious affiliation, the same issue arises: how do we separate the doctrine amidst the culture? Jesus Christ faced the same problem during His ministry as He guided His disciples towards the true doctrine, and here we do our best to help you develop the tools necessary to follow His doctrine.

In this episode we discuss:

The role that "fence laws" play in helping us follow the doctrine of the church, as well as the dangers of taking them too far
Building self-reliance and becoming enabled to make decisions that are in harmony with gospel truths
The culture of the Church of Jesus Christ is a distinctive lifestyle that stems from the eternal doctrine that the Church was build on
Questions to ask in order to determine unchanging doctrine from culture norms
Lessons and pitfalls from the puritanical culture of missionary life

10 | Deep Dive: Personal Revelation

Lumiet Media — Thu, 30 Nov 2023 00:00:00 -0600

We believe that God speaks to us through personal revelation, but how exactly does He do that? We cover a talk called "A Framework for Personal Revelation," and break down the guidelines that the Lord has taught us to recognize true revelation in order to keep the adversary from leading us astray.

In this episode we discuss:

True revelation leads us to do good things, regardless if it's our own thoughts or not
Personal revelation is personal (surprise); God will not give us revelation that is infringing on the agency of others
With more revelation comes more accountability; our willingness to follow divine guidance determines the frequency over time we receive revelation

We are Christians who have grown our testimony of Jesus Christ, and are looking to share that joy with everyone.
