Strong And Secure: Why Knowing the Character of God the Father Matters to our Spiritual Formation with Lynn Cowell
Do you ever feel that God is distant or “unimpressed” with you? Do you struggle to view God as a Father, based on your experiences with an earthly parent? I’ve been there. And I’ve found that only by truly understanding the character of God the Father can I live content, strong, and secure next to the very heart of God.
Often, we are inadvertently looking to others to fill our crater-sized love gaps —gaps only satisfied by a perfect, compassionate, heavenly Father. We say, “I am enough,” but the truth is, we’re not!
In today’s episode, my guest, Proverbs 31 speaker and author, Lynn Cowell, gives us a pertinent reminder that how we think about God the Father impacts our spiritual formation. As she beautifully puts it, “the prodigal son had a running Father.”
Let’s dive into God’s heart for us today.
Xoxo,
