Become New with John Ortberg

Discovering Your True Story with GodHERE'S HOW:Let's take a moment today to pray and invite God to show us our true selves. In Psalm 139:23-24, the psalmist prays, "Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting." This can be our prayer too, as we seek to align our lives with God's story for us.Become New is here to help you grow spiritually one day at a time.📧 Subscribe for daily emails with these videos and accompanying thoughts: https://bit.ly/46AZ0rN🙏🏻 Need prayer?

 Embracing God’s Grand NarrativeHERE'S HOW:Today, let's challenge ourselves to remember this truth and act upon it. Ask others about their stories. Be genuinely curious about their lives, their dreams, their struggles. Not only will this enrich your own story, but it will also reflect God's love for each individual. So, as we go about our day, let's strive to listen more than we speak, to learn from others, and to treat every person we encounter with the understanding that their story is just as important as ours. By doing this, we're not only honoring God's creation, but we're also contributing to the grand narrative that He's writing across all our lives.Become New is here to help you grow spiritually one day at a time.📧 Subscribe for daily emails with these videos and accompanying thoughts: https://bit.ly/46AZ0rN🙏🏻 Need prayer?
