We also take an active stance on taking care of orphans, foster kids, and adoptees as this is the only religion that God accepts (James 1:27).

Jun 1700:33:13Tap to summarizeHow do we renew our minds and overcome the lies of the enemy? In this episode of The Adopted Brothers Podcast, Craig and Gerald discuss the power of God's Word to transform our thinking and strengthen our faith. Drawing from Psalm 23, Romans 12:2, Joshua 1:9, Matthew 5-6, and 2 Corinthians 4, they explore how declaring God's truth over your life can defeat fear, doubt, and deception. They also examine the transformation of Saul to Paul as a powerful example of a renewed mind and discuss why daily time with God is essential for building a relationship with Him. Learn how surrendering to God allows Him to change what we cannot, why His ways are higher than our ways, and how applying Scripture to everyday life leads to lasting spiritual growth. If you're seeking encouragement, biblical truth, and practical ways to strengthen your walk with Christ, this conversation is for you.Links:Winning the War in Your Mindwww.theadoptedbrotherspodcast.comOriginal outro music by Autumn Bornschein

Discover why repentance should be immediate, how unforgiveness and bitterness weigh us down, and why true freedom comes when we lay everything at the foot of the cross.Join us as we explore powerful Scriptures including Isaiah 55:8-9, Psalm 103:12, and Matthew 6:19-21, while discussing God's limitless forgiveness, setting healthy boundaries, trusting God's perfect control, and following His leadership as men of faith. If we can trust an unknown pilot with our lives, how much more can we trust a known and faithful God? Be encouraged that our God is still a miracle-working God, and nothing is impossible with Him.original outro music by Autumn BornscheinConnect with us:www.theadoptedbrotherspodcast.com
