If you want to get a group of people talking, ask them to share about the worst job they’ve ever had. Everyone has a story about a boring job, a terrible boss, or rude coworker. A workplace is somewhere uniquely prone to conflict because you’re asking a group of people with very different personalities to work together to achieve a common goal. https://salvationarmysoundcast.org/heartbeat Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

In a society focused on out busy-ing each other, the act of taking a Sabbath appears to be a lost art. However, much like an active recovery day allows your body to recover, observing a Sabbath doesn’t mean you can’t be productive. When you give your mind a break from your demanding work life, you’re able to focus on your family, your home life and your prayer life. https://salvationarmysoundcast.org/heartbeat Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

Has compassion ever cost you something? Quite honestly, being the hands and feet of Jesus isn’t always neat and tidy. In fact, it may cost you more than you bargained for. But, Galatians chapter 6 encourages us to carry each other’s burdens for in this way we fulfill the law of Christ. https://salvationarmysoundcast.org/heartbeat Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

Who are you allowing yourself to hear from? Who are you allowing to influence your life? God is our father, and He wants us to recognize His voice at all times.

And should you believe what they’re saying? https://salvationarmysoundcast.org/heartbeat Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.
The stages of grief don’t happen in a box and the healing process takes time. 2nd Corinthians 1:3-4 says, “Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.” https://salvationarmysoundcast.org/heartbeat Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.
All of us, at some point, can find ourselves in a dark place. Whether it’s due to trouble in a relationship, work, school. Maybe we can’t even pinpoint the cause of this overwhelming sadness. In this state it may even seem impossible to hear the voice of God. But, no matter what- you matter to Him. He loves you beyond what we can ever understand. https://salvationarmysoundcast.org/heartbeat Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.
