  • The Megaphone Podcast :: Episode 023 :: Respond to His Word
    Jul 28 2021

    Overflow. That's the goal of this Deeply-Rooted series.  

    Just let the promise of that word draw you deeper into God’s Word. Remember, the more you fix your attention on God and spend time fostering your relationship with Him, the more you’ll know and understand His best for you. His next step for you. His perfect response through you.  

    But once you're into God's Word, it's time to take that action, baby! Respond to His Word. And that's what this episode is all about. We're simplifying this for all of us into 3 (and 1 bonus) steps!

  • The Megaphone Podcast :: Episode 022 :: Rediscover Your Time
    Jul 21 2021

    Tick tock, tick tock, goes every stinking clock. What are you going to do about it? Let it run out? Wish it away? Try to hold on to it so tightly that it slips through your fingers anyway?   

    The Bible says to make the most of every opportunity. That sounds like a good place to start. So, are you? Making the most of every opportunity? Using your time intentionally and wisely -- choosing to deepen your roots, choosing light over dark, choosing freedom over captivity. Jen and I have this very conversation in this episode - our final in the root of rediscovery!

  • The Megaphone Podcast :: Episode 021 :: Rediscover Your Relationships
    Jul 14 2021

    Feel like you're doing too much? Life is just so crazy? Sometimes you can't even think straight? Yeah, same. 

    But here's the deal...it's possible (ahem, highly likely and yes I'm talking to you) that you're taking on extra roles and responsibilities within your relationships. Things you just were never meant to take on. I talk about my not-so-flattering-but-its-the-ugly-truth nickname and Jen admits a totally ridiculous, but very real and recent situation where her control took over and she ended up in the exact opposite situation she wanted to be in.

  • The Megaphone Podcast :: Episode 020 :: Rediscover Your Character
    Jul 7 2021

    Who do you think you are, anyway?

    No, seriously. Who are you? Do you know? Do you know what God's character has to do with your own? Whether the answer is yes, no, or somewhere in between, you are going to love (and also be challenged by) this episode. Jen and I talk about the trap of running around your life like a chicken with your head cut off trying to please others or prove yourself. Are you (accidentally or intentionally) disconnecting from the heart of God so that you can be everything to everyone?

    Yikes. These are tough questions, with some really great insight, answers, and action steps!

    Jun 30 2021

    We've reached the root of rediscovery, and we're headed to set the record straight about God's character. Chances are, somewhere along the line, you've misunderstood, forgotten, or completely missed the true heart of God. And that's a big deal when we know we're to build our lives on that foundation. So in this episode, we start growing the root of rediscovery. Think of it as an adventure. Maybe fun, possibly challenging, but definitely healing!

  • The Megaphone Podcast :: Episode 018 :: Rest FROM Identity
    Jun 23 2021

    Week 5 of our Deeply-Rooted Podcast Series here! We're finishing up our Root of Rest this week with working from a place of your secured identity instead of out there chasing a destiny. Your truest self is your child-of-God self. And your child-of-God self is revealed as Christ brings you more and more into the light. 

    Don't miss out on the adventure of a life lived so authentically that God Himself shines in and through you. That is your potential. And not a far-off one either. It’s the final surge of our root of rest, as we learn to show up in our lives looking just like Christ. Working from our identity as participants and reflectors of His light and His love, instead of being out in the world trying to chase down futile attempts at significance. 

    Join us on this journey! And get your copy of the Deeply-Rooted 12-Day Devotional here so you can dig in and follow along with us!

  • The Megaphone Podcast :: Episode 017 :: Rest FROM Approval
    Jun 16 2021

    We're in a 13-week series called Deeply-Rooted, working through Lisa's Deeply-Rooted Devotional, available to you RIGHT NOW at www.lisagraft.com so you can work with us! This week, we're all about growing the root of rest. For this and the episode, we'll be working from this insanely challenging and inviting quote from author and pastor Kris Anthony Vallotton.   

    “Revival rest is operating out of a sense of worthiness and well-being because of what Christ already purchased for us on the cross. Revival rest looks like working from love, rather than for love. Working from acceptance rather than for acceptance. Working from approval rather than for approval. Working from identity rather than for a destiny.”  

    Making choices the for approval of others is a short-term “fix” that disguises a much deeper need for hope and healing. What can you do to change that?

    You are fully approved by your Heavenly Father. He created you to enjoy this truth as you go to work as your best, love those around you as your best, and invite others into this genuine relationship with Jesus so that they, too, can discover the peace that comes with becoming who they were created to be. Using the gifts and talents that God has so generously given.

  • The Megaphone Podcast :: Episode 016 :: Rest FROM Acceptance
    Jun 9 2021

    We're in a 13-week series called Deeply-Rooted, working through Lisa's Deeply-Rooted Devotional, available to you RIGHT NOW at www.lisagraft.com so you can work with us! This week, we're all about growing the root of rest. For this and the next 2 episodes, we'll be working from this insanely challenging and inviting quote from author and pastor Kris Vallotton.

    “Revival rest is operating out of a sense of worthiness and well-being because of what Christ already purchased for us on the cross. Revival rest looks like working from love, rather than for love. Working from acceptance rather than for acceptance. Working from approval rather than for approval. Working from identity rather than for a destiny.”

    You are fully accepted. Right now. As is. How can this one truth impact your most significant relationships?

    You’re already accepted in the heavenly realms and you’re not promised acceptance here on earth – in fact, you’re warned against it on more than one occasion. So stop wearing yourself out looking acceptance. Instead, show up in all of your relationships secure in Jesus, the source of your full acceptance and the peace that that truth brings.
