In this new reflection on renewal, Jonathan Youssef delves into the power of the new year as a time to reflect on our faith with a powerful message from Hebrews 13:5-6. First, he reminds us of God's unchanging promise never to leave us and explains how understanding this truth will allow us to live without fear, embracing contentment and courage in Christ.
Join Jonathan and be encouraged to reflect on how God is shaping you to be more like Christ and to serve others in the coming year. He will guide you in writing prayers to seek a renewed mind and spirit and to commit to ministering love and hope. As we review these prayers, we're urged to thank God for His faithfulness and step into the new year with joy and anticipation for His continued work.

[00:00:00] Hello and welcome to Candid, where we never settle for less than the truth.
[00:00:09] I'm your host, Jonathan Yusef.
[00:00:11] Each week we'll tackle tough issues, answer your hard questions, and take a candid look
[00:00:16] at the Christian faith.
[00:00:19] As we begin a new year, God's word holds special promise for us.
[00:00:26] Let your conduct be without covetousness. Let it transform your inward thoughts and motivate your outward actions that you might serve the Lord as an ambassador for Christ this year. Next, consider what plans God has for you in the new year and what ways is He working within you to make you more like Christ?
[00:01:42] And what ways may He be calling you to serve? As you look back over the prayers you have written, thank God for His renewing spirit in your life. And go into 2024, rejoicing in His faithfulness and love. Candid is a podcast from Leading the Way with Dr. Michael Youssef.
