Are you struggling with depression? Do you know that celebrating or appreciating small victories can help counter the onset of depression? This idea has worked for me and I'd like to share how. If you keep watching, you will discover what happened after I published my last video. I'm blown away and need to keep working on this channel. Support: My name is Barry and I’m the owner of Christianity Explained. What is Christianity Explained? It’s an online ministry where I provide book reviews catering to a Christian audience. I, also provide some theological teachings through the Inspiration Point Podcast. On the CE Talk Show Podcast, you’ll see interviews with pastors and others in the Christian community. To do this, I need your support. YouTube is free; however, the books, equipment and streaming services are not free.

I guess you could call this a re-launch of my audio podcast; except for one thing. I felt a need to change the name of the podcast to Inspiration Point. What's the difference? Well, you will have to listen to the podcast for that detail. I'll also be diving into who I am. I'll be sharing some key aspects of what I'm about.

That's not all! Here are some details that I did not go into, on today's podcast. For one, my Inspiration Point Podcast episodes are created in Streamyard and streamed to my YouTube channel, Christianity Explained, my Facebook profile and Twitter. I will later upload the original video to Spotify for Podcasters for distribution. Between this podcast, my Christianity Explained Talk Show and book reviews, I feel this to be the best approach. Feel free to visit my YouTube channel and see what other contents I have.

In today's podcast, I touched on what the CE Talk Show is; however, I didn't share what the overall purpose of Christianity Explained.

Today's episode discussion is a change of pace for me.  I had wanted to write a blog post on the issue of sin and follow it with an audio podcast.  The article may not be forthcoming; however, it's not a problem to hop on the mic and talk about the issue. You can be certain that I'll be referencing Scriptures in today's podcast.

Ever think of talking to God, the Father as one would talk with a friend? For many Christians, the idea of talking with Jesus as one person talks to his or her friends can be a challenging one. Yet, it is the kind of relationship that we are called into.  As it is often true in the natural, it takes time to cultivate such a relationship.  Would you like some help in learning how to pray and talk with Jesus? It's easier than you may think!

In my last blog post, "How Do I Listen for God's Voice? Relationship", I was referencing Peter Greig's new book called "How to Hear God: A Simple Guide for NORMAL People. In the first part of this book, Peter shares how our relationship with Jesus can shape how we hear God's Voice. It's not the only thing covered in that book.

As the author points out, we learn to hear God's voice through the pages of Scriptures.  For some people, it is an easy thing to say "Open your Bible and read it." Sadly, this is not the case for many Christians. They may well have a desire to read the pages of God's Word; however, it is a daunting task for many of them. I understand the struggles and I'd like to share some ideas that will help you, in unlocking the hidden treasures in God's Word.

Are you struggling in hearing the voice of the Good Shepherd? I can certainly understand that struggle and it's not an overnight process.  If you ever went to a Christian bookstore then you'll notice a variety of books on this topic. Not surprisingly, it is a popular search term. It's right there with "How to study the Bible".

I am in the process of reading and listening to a new book by Peter Greig and it's on that very topic. It is called "How to hear God: A Simple Guide for NORMAL people." It's a new book that came out this year. I am not going to review this book. I would like to invite you to continue reading this blog post, using this book as a backdrop, I'd like to share some key points that will help you in listening to the voice of Jesus.

Here is a direct link to the article, if interested.
