54: Are you willing to do whatever it takes to see Jesus like Zacchaeus did?
Monday Dec 19, 2022
Monday Dec 19, 2022
I did this Facebook live inside one of my Facebook groups and thought I'd share it here on the podcast for you.
I was reading about Zacchaeus one morning and just needed to share the revelation I got from it, even after reading this passage many times over the years.
Zacchaeus (a.k.a. "Z") was so excited about seeing Jesus, he climbed a tree to get a better view. Jesus calls him out by name and invites himself over to Z's house for dinner. Z is pumped about this.
Listen in to see what happens and how we should all remember that God calls each of us out by name and loves us.

Today, we’re talking about Deborah, a prophetess and judge over Israel. She is what I would consider a rockstar of a human, and we each have a bit of Deborah on the inside of us!

47 HOW to pray, in case you wondered
Tuesday Oct 19, 2021
Tuesday Oct 19, 2021
Sometimes we look at prayer as a way of getting things from God.
We ask for prayer as though the more people praying will sway him, like he’s a judge on American idol and the person with the most prayers gets the victory, healing, whatever.
You’ll hear things like, “Well, I prayed and that didn’t work.” Or “ let’s spread the word and get as many prayers as possible so we can see God move.”
I want to introduce you to a different way to think about prayer on today’s episode. Come hangout with me on Facebook! @coachvickyarsenault
