799: Getting Swagger-Ready // Becoming Brave 05 (Eric Ludy)
This is the fifth installment in Eric Ludy's spring Daily Thunder series, entitled Becoming Brave, which explores the mechanical construct of spiritual and moral bravery.

798: Becoming a Spiritual Athlete // Becoming Brave 04.5 (Leslie Ludy)
This is installment 4.5 in Eric Ludy's spring Daily Thunder series entitled, Becoming Brave. In this episode, Leslie Ludy is the special guest and she examines the spiritual athleticism of missionary, Gladys Aylward. Aylward’s childlike faith in God seemed illogical and impractical to many. But because she dared to trust Him and take Him at His Word, she lived one of the most conquering, victorious lives this world has ever seen. This episode proves that to impact this world for eternity, we don’t need a long list of human qualifications. We simply need an immovable, unshakable, rock-solid faith in our amazing God.

In this study, we look at God being our Lord and Shepherd and the three things these two characteristics of God have in common for our daily lives as Christians.For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/.

This is installment 3.5 in Eric Ludy's spring Daily Thunder series entitled, Becoming Brave. In this particular episode, Leslie Ludy is the special guest and she adds her two cents by asking the simple question, "Why should we fear?"

793: A Prisoner IN the Lord (Ephesians 4:1) // The Calling On Your Life 02 (Nathan Johnson)
While we know Paul was a prisoner of Rome for the sake of the Gospel, he boldly declares that He is a prison IN the Lord—that his position and focus is Jesus Christ. In order for us to have a proper understanding of God’s calling in our lives, we, like Paul, need to see ourselves in a proper position of humility, submission, and surrender to the One who has called us. In this expositional message from Ephesians 4:1, Nathan Johnson explores what it means to be a prisoner IN the Lord and how that changes everything for a Christian.For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/.
