During today's conversation on Back Porch Theology, we're continuing our spiritual adventure with the always feisty and biblically faithful Australian, my dear friend Christine Caine. Chris and her husband Nick helped me navigate the arduous process of adopting Missy, so it didn't surprise me when my daughter began to speak English that she proclaimed Chris to be her favorite Aunt! Mind you Missy's got several favorite aunts and my actual sister Theresa is appropriately at the very top of her list, but I love the fact that the Caine family and Harper girls are so interwoven, Missy assumed she and Chris were related when she was little! And I can pretty much guarantee that you'll feel like she's part of your family of faith after hanging out with us on the porch today too, because spending time with Chris inevitably means feeling closer to Jesus, as well as being inspired to share the glorious good news of His unconditional love in the hopes of welcoming more image bearers into our stumbling toward grace community! I often paraphrase church father and theologian Lesslie Newbiggin who referred to the congregation as the most effective hermeneutic of the Gospel - in other words, we can see and understand who our Savior is and who He's called us to be as His ambassadors more clearly through the lens of genuine relationship with other Christ followers. Remember 90-plus percent of the biblical imperatives - that is those instructions and parameters scattered throughout Scripture explaining how we should live as people who've been redeemed and perfectly loved by God - are set in the context of community. But before we dive into this Gospel elucidating, community-building conversation with Chris, I need to make a qualification. If you haven't yet had the privilege of meeting this feisty Bible teacher, best-selling author, and global anti-human trafficking leader, not only does she have an Australian accent, she talks fast so listening to her is like drinking from a firehose! Therefore, you might want to grab a double expresso or an extra-large glass of something caffeinated and your Bible - oh and if you're driving or on the Peloton, please pull over or hop off the bike for the next little while because trying to do anything thing else while listening to Chris is like trying to play Twister while ice skating - it's just not a good idea. Please bring your undivided attention to the porch today because we're about to have some church up in here, y'all!

In this episode, Christine Caine will empower you to embrace the practice of prayer and be transformed to live on mission for Jesus. So many people are living beneath God's best. Countless souls are overwhelmed by struggle and uncertainty. But God isn't limited by what we see. He isn't confined by how we feel or what we believe is possible. His power is miraculous. His wisdom is supernatural. His presence is boundless. There is nothing He cannot do! And when you embrace prayer in all its fullness - it's practice, pattern, and purpose - you're going to go where you've never been and see God move like you've never imagined.

Christine Caine is a speaker, activist, and best-selling author. She and her husband, Nick, founded the anti-human trafficking organization The A21 Campaign. They also founded Propel Women, an initiative that is dedicated to coming alongside women all over the globe to activate their God-given purpose.

"For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do-this I keep on doing." In Romans chapter 7, verses 18 and 19, Paul perfectly describes our inner struggle. We want to live in a way that honors God, yet find ourselves mired in old temptations. And we begin to question if we ever really understood salvation at all. If this sounds familiar, hear me, friend: the grace that saved you initially is enough to sustain you eternally.
Today I get to sit down with a longtime friend of mine, Carey Nieuwhof. Listen in with us as we discuss the importance of optimism and how we might rebuild our optimism after having experienced burnout. We chat about the value of friendship, curiosity, and the intentional pursuit of shared experiences. We also talk about the role of leaders in empowering others and building community, and the importance of taking action and activating our faith.

I'm so glad you're joining me today on the Max Lucado Encouraging Word Podcast because we're talking about my favorite subject - grace.
Maybe you've walked with God for a long time. Maybe you're just beginning to ask questions about the Bible. No matter where you find yourself, Paul's letter to the Romans is for you. And in the next few episodes, we'll explore his writing about the great grace of God - what it is, why we need it, and how it changes our lives. Because it really does. It certainly changed mine.
How often do you let the vision God places in your heart mature before taking it into your own hands?
