• Identity Or Insight? All-In August #5
    Aug 5 2024

    It's All-In August!

    If you're going All-In, you have a choice to make about your personality.


    Do you use it as an identity to be protected and honored at all cost, or as insight into areas in which you may be vulnerable to offense or trouble?


    Here's a talk about how to use the personality traits and type that God gave us to honor Him at all times.

  • 2024 Podcast Award Semifinal #1: Pete Greig vs. Mattie Jackson-Smith
    Jul 25 2024
    Help Me Pick the Best Podcast Conversation of 2024!The winner of the second quarter was Pete Greig!The first quarter winner was Mattie Jackson-Smith!Here are their two episodes back-to back. Take a listen, and you can choose the finalist from the first half of the year. Whichever episode gets the most downloads in the next week will move on to the finals. At the end of the year, we'll let the two semi-finalist winners battle to become the inaugural Dr. Lee Warren Podcast Award winner! Let's listen to these amazing conversations and then honor our guests for sharing their stories and their wisdom with us.(Remember: when we replay old episodes, the free books have already been given away)Pete Greig has been teaching us to pray for decades.What do you do when God seems far away? How do we learn to hear God? How do we pray when life hurts?These are BIG questions! And Pete's here to help us answer them.Pete's official bio and links:Pete Greig is the Senior Pastor of Emmaus Rd church, and the bewildered founder of 24-7 Prayer, an international, inter-denominational movement of prayer, mission and justice operating in more than 100 countries.Pete’s books, which are available in various languages and formats, have won the following awards: + ‘Dirty Glory’ - UK Christian Book of the year+ ‘How to Pray’ - short-listed for the ECPA Christian Book of the Year® Award, 2021+ ‘How to Hear God’ - Best Christian Life Book, 2022, Winner, Resources of the Year, 2023 in the Spiritual Growth category.+ ‘God on Mute’ has been described as ‘a Christian classic’ by the Archbishop of Canterbury.Pete’s free, online resources include The Prayer Course - downloaded more than three million times, The Lectio Course, and Lectio365 - a daily devotional with more than 225,000 regular users.He and his wife Sammy are members of The Order of the Mustard Seed (OMS). They split their time between a barge on the River Wey near Guildford, England, and a cliff top retreat on the Isle of Wight where they host and mentor leaders from around the world. Pete is an Ambassador for the NGO Tearfund, a visiting lecturer for St Mellitus Theological College and one of the founding conveners of the Wildfires festival. Here's is the conversation with Pete Greig. Whoever gets the most downloads in the first week becomes the finalist!(By the way, computer-generated transcripts are terrible at spelling names. There are several versions of Mattie and Pete's names in the transcript for this episode, but the correct spellings are Mattie Jackson-Smith and Pete Greig. AI is NOT going to take over the world, at least until it learns to spell!)Follow me @drleewarren on Instagram to keep up with the tournament as the year progresses!Leave a voicemail with your question or comment!Five Ways You Can Support this show:Pray for us!Subscribe, like, and share it with your friends!
