We need more than bread to thrive. Jesus said that we need every word that comes from the mouth of God! We need more than food-stuff for our stomachs, more than comfort-stuff, more than significance stuff; we even need more than relational stuff in order to thrive. A live that thrives will involve a live that is continually feeding on the words of God. And remember, eating God's words involves more than listening and learning. Both listening and learning are important, but they are incomplete until we lean in. Leaning in, is the place where we become do-ers of the word and not hearers only. It’s the place where our lives change by the power of the Spirit in partnership with the Word of God.
In this episode, I'm challenging us to consider leaning in by asking God to take us out of the center of our lives, so that we can be a blessing to those around us.

Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
