Hey y'all! This is Luvlan Lee - host of the Words of Love podcast. In this episode, I discuss the reality of going through the motions and drifting through the Christian life. Even after being saved and knowing the truths of Jesus, it's easy for us as believers to feel like we are living passively. Maybe you have proclaimed Jesus as the Lord of your life, or have been attending church for a while, or know deep down that you want to follow Him... but, you just feel like it's empty. You still walk through depression, anxiety, stress, grief, etc., and you're wondering where Jesus is. Trust me, I've been there. Can I share a promise with you? Jesus wants to be your guide - you pillar of cloud by day & fire by night. He wants to the anchor to your ship - to keep you from drifting. Maybe you're not a Christian or were a Christian. The Lord is still calling you back with open arms. He doesn't want you to wander through the desert for another 40 like the Israelites did. He wants you to enter into a land of Milk & Honey today! Man... now I want an iced latte with milk&honey, that sounds like it would slap! Anyway, click 'play'!
As always, speak love & live it!

Hey y'all! In this episode, I'm joined by my new friend Kayla Lopez, who is a sophomore at the University of Georgia majoring in Journalism/Mass Communication. Kayla has grown up knowing Jesus her whole life, but would say her relationship with Him became personal for about 3 years, when she made the decision to attend church on her own + get baptized. Kayla is so excited to be on the podcast today, and says "this is literally a dream come trueeee", as she aspires to be a broadcast journalist some day in the future.
In this episode, Kayla and I discuss the Instagram polls I posted last week on Forgiveness and Apologizing. We answer your questions on a variety of topics, including: Is it easy or difficult for you to forgive others? Is it easier to forgive or avoid? What's more important: forgiving or apologizing? Are we 100% forgiven? Is there a limit to forgiveness or is it unconditional? Does God limit Himself by forgiving unconditionally? Can't we just take advantage of Him and treat Him like a doormat? and more like these! - some of which may be answered in the next episode.
We hope you all enjoy this episode and be sure to subscribe, share with you friends, family, + anyone who needs to hear this! As always, speak love + live it!

Hello! Happy first episode of SEASON 3!!! It's crazy to already be on the third season of Words of Love already, and I am so excited to begin with some exciting announcements and updates in this episode. Glory to God for real because He is just incredible and so faithful. In this episode, we discuss forgiveness - which is a very important and central theme to Christianity. We discuss: what is forgiveness? The google definition vs. the biblical definition? Why is forgiveness necessary and what does it require? What are the consequences of holding grudges + having a heart of unforgiveness? Why did Jesus sacrifice Himself + take on our sin? Why is forgiveness offered to us in the first place? and more!

Hey y'all! This is your host Luvlan Lee + welcome to the Words of Love podcast. In this episode, we talk about... prostitutes + harlots, specifically how Jesus used these unlikely women to share His message + further His kingdom. We explore and discuss the stories of Rahab (a Canaanite woman, liar, and harlot in the city of Jericho - Joshua 2), Gomer (unfaithful wife to the prophet Hosea - Hosea 1), and lastly Mary Magdalene/Mary the sister of Lazaraus... (were they even harlots like everyone thinks they were??). I really enjoyed studying these passages and recounting these stories. There is such a rich blessing + piece of wisdom in each one of these women's life stories. The symbolism, the bold faith, the testaments of HIs love, ugh... SO GOOD. I hope you all enjoy this episode + find a rich blessing in it too! As always, speak love + live it!

Hey y’all! In this episode, we’re exploring what the Bible says about HOPE. What is Hope? Why is it important? Biblical hope vs. Worldly hope. How do we access Hope? What should we hope for? And so much more. Hope doesn’t disappoint. God’s hope is confident expectation whereas the world’s version is of wishful thinking + a level a doubt. I hope you are blessed by God’s Word today. As always, speak love + live it!

HAPPY EASTER!!! HE IS RISEN!!! In this episode, I’m joined again by my long time church friend, Nathan Desta, who felt inclined to share a message on how to overcome sin, and what it means to crucify the flesh. We dig through Romans 6, focusing on Paul’s writings, and also address baptism, repentance, and how following Christ is a daily endeavor. We answer the questions: Do we need to be baptized to be saved? What role does it play in salvation? Does dying to sin mean never sinning again? Why do run back into sin even after we’ve repented? Why is being Christian so hard??? I really enjoyed having this conversation with Nate (he’s so insightful!), and just give the glory to God for His sacrifice. As always, speak love and live it!

HEY Y'ALL! Welcome back to SEASON 2 of Words of Love Podcast !! So humbled and blessed to be starting a second season and am just awestruck by all the Lord has done through this ministry. Today, I am joined by three of my closest friends - Providence Mpano, Kenneth Johnson, and Nathan Desta - and we discuss the next steps after realizing you desire to be in a relationship with Jesus. Perhaps you have decided to dedicate your life to following Jesus and are just ready to share Him with everyone? That is AMAZING!! But how do you start sharing Him? This podcast goes in depth into how to start that ministry and allow the Lord to use you as a vessel in making His name known. We answer questions such as: How to be a witness for Christ? What can I offer - realizing the individualized gifts God has placed in our hearts? How can you prepare to step into God's calling? And topics such as showing your true colors and not being ashamed of who Jesus is in your life. We will face persecution for believing and living out Jesus in our lives, so how do we find the strength to persevere? I hope this encourages you to live for the Lord - to know Him and make Him known! Thank you so much for the support and for your streams. It truly is changing lives and bringing Jesus out into the world. Thank you Kenneth, Provi, and Nathan for taking the time out to record this! Y'all are the best. As always, speak love and live it!
