Episode 32 - Reflections of God – Wisdom of God through a Type 5
There are many things in life we can ask God for, but the Bible urges us to seek wisdom above all things. On this month’s podcast episode of If You Really Knew Me Ben and Kim discuss all the wonderful ways God’s wisdom is displayed through His children and how we can glean from each other.BIBLE VERSES:1 Kings 3:9 AMPSo give your servant an understanding mind (wisdom) and a hearing heart with which to judge your people, so that I may discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge and rule this great people of Yours?James 1:5 ESVIf any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.James 3:17 ESVBut the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere.Proverbs 3:13 - 18 ESVBlessed is the one who finds wisdom, and the one who gets understanding, for the gain from her is better than gain from silver and her profit better than gold. She is more precious than jewels, and nothing you desire can compare with her. Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor. Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. ...Proverbs 1:7 ESVThe fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.Romans 11:33 NLTOh, how great are God’s riches and wisdom and knowledge! How impossible it is for us to understand his decisions and his ways!SONG ABOUT GOD’S WISDOM :To You be the glory by Matt Maher & Kari Jobehttps://youtu.be/74t0RwEntiU?si=RUsC-SvbLGgOpYOcPerfect Wisdom of Our God by Keith & Kristyn Gettyhttps://youtu.be/hSnzYnOe6kI?si=sq7y-NfkQrtL2snHYou Are My Vision by Rend Collectivehttps://youtu.be/rMmSPOF-6Xo?si=6b060JoVNMYLE9LQThy Will by Hillary Scott & The Scott Family https://youtu.be/PAmh3yvmzXs?si=dlhVGOHI9nTg17fFWould you like to have YOUR question answered and maybe even featured on a future episode? Submit your enneagram question toben@wearethebridge.orgIf you find this information helpful to you, SUBSCRIBE and journey with us.If you’re not sure where to start but want to know more, refer to Ep 2 - The Enneagram ExplainedInfo credit: Beth McCord (Your Enneagram Coach)Hosts: Kim Willey and Ben SorrellsBen is a Certified Enneagram Coach through YEC and Beth McCordHelpful Links:Discover your Enneagram Type: Here's one that we like!

Episode 26 - Reflections of God – Goodness of God through a Type 1
In this sometimes, uncertain world, it helps to have daily reminders of God’s goodness. If we look, we can see God’s goodness all around us in what and WHO He has created.On this month’s podcast episode of If You Really Knew Me Ben and Kim discuss how God gifts each personality type with different traits so we can learn from each other. They’ll also share encouraging songs and scriptures about the goodness of God.In the episode:17 Bible Verses: What God Says About You - Dr. Michelle Bengston1.   I say (or have said) I am unlovable, but God says I am forever loved.“And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 8:38-39).2. I say (or have said) I am scarred but God says I am healed.“But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed” (Isaiah 53:5).3. I say I am weak, but God says He makes me strong.“God arms me with strength, and he makes my way perfect” (Psalm 18:32).4. I recognize I am a sinner, but God says I am forgiven.“I am writing to you who are God’s children because your sins have been forgiven through Jesus” (1 John 2:12).5. I was abandoned, but God says I am adopted.“God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure” (Ephesians 1:5).6. I say I am broken, but God says He makes me whole.“So you also are complete through your union with Christ, who is the head over every ruler and authority” (Colossians 2:10).7. I have been rejected, but God says I am His!“Do not fear. I have redeemed you. I have summoned you. You are mine” (Isaiah 43:1).8. I say I am alone, but God says He is always with me.“…Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go” (Joshua 1:9).9. I say I am hopeless, but God says because of Him, I am hopeful.“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare, and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope” (Jeremiah 29:11).10. I say I am purposeless, but God says I was created with purpose.“Perhaps this is the moment for which you’ve been created” (Esther 4:14).11. I say I have failed, but God says I am victorious in Christ.“But thank God! He gives us victory over sin and death through our Lord Jesus Christ” (1 Corinthians 15:57).12. I say I am lost, but God says He gives me direction.“Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying ‘This is the way; walk in it’” (Isaiah 30:21).13. I say I am worried, anxious, or afraid, but God says with Him I am peace-filled.“Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid” (John 14:27).14. I say I am unhappy, but God says I am joyful/joy-filled.“I have told you these things so that you will be filled with my joy. Yes, your joy will overflow!” (John 15:11)15. I say I am afraid, but God says I am powerful, loved, and have a sound mind.“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind” (2 Timothy 1:7).16. I say I am nothing special, but God says I am fearfully and wonderfully made.“I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well” (Psalm 139:14).17. I say I am worthless, but God says Jesus died because I am worth it.“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16).Good, Good Fatherhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vuy1qm91dKMPromiseshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=muEqwtYjdB0Goodness of Godhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvdLA6praRYGoodness of God by Bethel MusicI love You Lord Oh Your mercy never fails me All my days I’ve been held in Your hands From the moment that I wake up Until I lay my head I will sing of the goodness of GodAll my life You have been faithfulAll my life You have been so, so goodWith every breath that I am able I will sing of the goodness of GodI love Your voice You have led me through the fire In darkest nights You are close like no other I’ve known You as a father I’ve known You as a friend I have lived in the goodness of GodYour goodness is running after It’s running after me Your goodness is running after It’s running after me With my life laid down I’m surrendered now I give You everything Your goodness is running after It’s running after me CHORUS 2: All my life You have been faithful All my life You have been so, so good With every breath that I am able Oh, I’m gonna sing of the goodness of God (I’m gonna sing, I’m gonna sing)All my life You have been faithful All my life You have been so, so good With every breath that I am able Oh, I’m gonna sing of the goodness of God Oh, I’m gonna sing of the goodness of GodWould you like to have YOUR question answered and maybe even featured on a future episode? Submit your enneagram question toben@wearethebridge.orgIf you find this information helpful to you, SUBSCRIBE and journey with us.If you’re not sure where to start but want to know more, refer to Ep 2 - The Enneagram ExplainedInfo credit: Beth McCord (Your Enneagram Coach)Hosts: Kim Willey and Ben SorrellsBen is a Certified Enneagram Coach through YEC and Beth McCordHelpful Links:Discover your Enneagram Type: Here's one that we like!
