Dr. Boa discusses how the mind works, and how we can renew our minds to become the people we were created to be. We can remind ourselves all the time that we were meant for more than this world.
Dr. Boa teaches that the “good life” (by the world’s definitions) will never be enough for us, because we were made for something much better. We can break out of the cages of the world’s way of thinking, living on the level of intimacy with God while also being present with people.
Dr. Boa continues his discussion of Jesus's spiritual practices and his invitation to us to practice God's presence, just as he did on earth. Today's lesson picks up in John 10.
Dr. Boa picks up in Mark 9 and Luke 12 with his discussion of Jesus's invitation to pursue him above all other things and to cultivate an inner life that can sustain that pursuit.
Dr. Boa teaches from John 15 and other passages to explain how practicing God's presence by training in spiritual things relate to abiding in Christ and will lead us to bear fruit.
Dr. Boa gives the biblical basis for the idea that a Christian’s spiritual life is not a measurable product but a dynamic, ongoing process. We were meant for more than this life, but we have to cultivate the spiritual side of ourselves.
Dr. Boa continues his discussion on our imperishable inheritance. It is a future hope that gives a present perspective on our trials and pains and difficulties.
