The You Are My Witnesses Podcast

Consecrating the Summer: Following the Shepherd to Higher Places

In this episode of the You Are My Witnesses Podcast, we explore the powerful biblical theme of consecration through the lens of Pentecost, Israel's wilderness journey, and the timeless truths of Psalm 23. Discover how the summer season can reveal hidden distractions, expose modern-day "golden calves," and invite us into deeper intimacy with the Good Shepherd.
Drawing from A Shepherd Looks at Psalm 23 by Philip Keller, you'll learn why God often calls us to leave familiar ground, trust His leading, and follow Him to the higher places He has prepared. We'll also unpack the life-changing wisdom of Proverbs 3:3-8 and what it means to trust the Lord instead of leaning on our own understanding.
If you've been sensing God calling you deeper, wondering what He has for you in this next season, or struggling with distractions that are pulling your focus away from Him, this episode will encourage and challenge you to surrender fully and follow His voice.
The Shepherd has already gone ahead of you. The question is: will you trust Him enough to follow?

Rise & Shine: Bring Light Into Chaos

This episode explores what it truly means to be “the light of the world” and how that phrase is not just poetic language, but a core part of your identity in Christ. The teaching traces the theme of light from Genesis—where God’s word brings light and order into chaos—to Jesus, who comes as the Light of the World and then calls us “children of light.”
You’ll discover that biblical light is not passive or meant to be hidden. It is active, powerful, and sent with purpose—to bring God’s order, clarity, healing, and truth into dark and chaotic places. Instead of standing at a distance and pointing out how dark the darkness is, believers are commissioned to step into it, carrying Christ’s light within them.
This episode invites you to embrace who you already are in Jesus: a light bearer. You’ll be encouraged to stop hiding, to let the Holy Spirit expose and heal the shadowed places of your heart, and to live as a visible expression of Jesus in your home, workplace, and community. It’s a call to place your lamp on the stand and shine boldly so the world can see Christ through you.
