INSTANT TAKEAWAYS

1 | Choose to believe God is who He says He is, and that He can bring healing in your darkest time

One of the distinct times Deedra chose to pursue God was when she was 19 year old and her mother died. She was left asking God, “Are you who you say you are?” and “How do I relieve who you are even in my darkest time?” | Listen in at 9:20

2 | Be dependent on God, not independent of Him

Deedra discusses what pursuit of God looks like for her. That it is a choosing to depend on Him rather than being independent. Depending on Him, submitting to Him, following Him, trusting Him; moment by moment. | Listen in at 11:55

3 | Respond to God’s pursuit

You don’t want to miss out on the fullness of who He is and what He has for you.
Deedra shares that there is a distance if I don’t respond to God. That distance can be a minute or a year, but if I respond quickly, I don’t miss out on that relationship with Him. The longer I wait, the more I miss out on the fullness of who He is in the moment. | Listen in at 14:30

4 | GETTING TO KNOW AN ENNEAGRAM 2

THE Helper

BASIC OVERVIEW OF A 2 | Twos are empathetic, sincere, and warm-hearted. They are friendly, generous, and self-sacrificing, but can also be sentimental, flattering, and people-pleasing. They are well-meaning and driven to be close to others, but can slip into doing things for others in order to be needed. They typically have problems with possessiveness and with acknowledging their own needs. At their Best: unselfish and altruistic, they have unconditional love for others.

SHOW NOTES

Come listen as we get to visit with my guest Deedra Bingham. She will share how her life changed when she chose to pursue God during the darkest time in her life. Her moment by moment choice to follow God revealed to her a deepening of relationship with Him and a fullness that can only be found in him. She discusses the Character of God, and how it is all about Jesus. It’s not about Jesus, it is just self-help or “try harder”, and that just falls apart. Her desire to be a part of God’s design led her to a life-long journey of pursuing Him and encouraging and mentoring other women to do the same. Because He longs for relationship with us even beyond what our longing can be.

And stick around for “Just My Type,” Kelly and Matt will interview Kara Sudduth, and discuss how to bring joy to enneagram #2. Kara will share the value of being invited to the messy private places with friends. How sitting in the messy of life with someone, with no fear of rejections, but still have accountability is truly a joy. If you are or know a #2, this is a must-listen.
