Faith Over Fear
Jennifer Slattery and Carol Ogle McCrackenCourageously Living as Expressions of God (Elohim) – Ep. 59
June 22, 2021 ● 15 minShare this episode
God hand-crafted you and I to live as vivid and beautiful expressions of Elohim, Creator God. The more we step into who God created us to be, fully expressing our true selves, the more God’s nature shines within us. This is precisely why Satan, our spiritual enemy, works so hard to defeat us. He’ll tell us we’re not good enough, will never amount to anything, and would be better off fading into the sea of conformity. But God calls us to courageously step into our unique callings so that others can see His light shining within.
