The Blessings in Servanthood

Welcome to "Loved for Life," the podcast where we explore God's truth for everyday living, bringing encouragement, biblical wisdom, and real-life application. I’m your host, Lance Simons, and I’m so glad you’ve joined me today. In a world that tells us to chase success, power, and recognition, it’s easy to lose sight of what God says about greatness. But Jesus came to show us a different way — a way of humility, purpose, and service. Today, we’re diving deep into a powerful message called "The Blessings in Servanthood." We’re going to discover how living a life of service not only aligns us with God’s purpose but also unlocks spiritual growth, humility, and blessings that go far beyond anything this world can offer. So whether you’re driving to work, sitting at home, or out for a walk, I invite you to take these next few minutes to open your heart to what God wants to speak to you today. Let's explore together what it really means to serve and why it's one of the greatest callings in the Kingdom of God.

Are You a Disciple?

Discipleship isn’t about convenience—it’s about commitment. A true disciple abides in Jesus' Word, counts the cost, bears fruit, and makes disciples. It’s not just believing in Jesus, but following Him wholeheartedly. So ask yourself: Are you just a believer, or are you a disciple? The good news? Jesus is calling you today. No matter where you are, you can choose to follow Him more deeply, surrender more fully, and walk in the purpose He has for you.

The Holy Spirit, The Helper!

"The Holy Spirit is not just a force but a Person—our Advocate, Guide, and ever-present Helper. Sent by Jesus, He dwells within us, leading us into truth, empowering us for godly living, and assuring us that we are never alone. His presence is our greatest advantage, transforming our lives from the inside out. Walk in His power, listen to His voice, and trust in His guidance—because the Helper is with you, now and forever."
