25. The Burden of God: Intercession, Eternal Groaning & Partnering With Heaven

What if the burden you’ve been trying to escape is actually an invitation from God? In this episode, Emily and Courtney talk about the burden of the Lord, intercession, and what it means to partner with heaven through prayer. Together, they unpack how the “groan” believers often feel in response to brokenness, injustice, sickness, or spiritual darkness is not meant to lead us into hopelessness—but into union with Christ and deeper intimacy with the Holy Spirit. Drawing from Matthew 11, Romans 8, Ezekiel 1–3, and Isaiah 62, this conversation explores: * the difference between worldly burden and God’s burden * how intercession is standing in the gap between earthly reality and heavenly promise * why the Holy Spirit groans through believers * how God births burdens through intimacy and His Word * the role of watchmen and prayer warriors in this generation * how carrying God’s heart actually frees us from lesser burdens * Emily also shares a powerful personal testimony about encountering the Holy Spirit in intercession and experiencing a spiritual groan that transformed her prayer life and confidence in God’s voice. This episode is an invitation to: * stop carrying burdens alone * surrender anxiety and self-preservation * receive God’s heart for people and nations * and partner with Him in prayer until heaven comes on earth. ---------------------------------------- KEY SCRIPTURES DISCUSSED * Matthew 11:28–30 * Romans 8:18–28 * Ezekiel 1–3 * Isaiah 62 * Luke 1 (Mary’s response to God’s promise) ---------------------------------------- KEY THEMES * Intercession & prayer * The burden of the Lord * Eternal perspective * The Holy Spirit & spiritual groaning * Revival & watchmen * Union with Christ * Hope in suffering * God’s promises & faithfulness ---------------------------------------- MEMORABLE QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE > “The burden of God doesn’t crush you—it anchors you in hope.” > “Intercession is standing in the gap between what we see in the natural and what we know is in God’s heart.” > “Sometimes the groan you feel isn’t anxiety—it’s an invitation into intercession.” > “Watchmen don’t invent God’s will.

23. Get Off the Hamster Wheel of Religious Striving: The Gospel is for TODAY

The Gospel is more than forgiveness for eternity — it’s freedom, healing, deliverance, and transformation for today. In this episode of the Scroll & Press Podcast, Emily and Courtney dive deep into the fullness of salvation through the lens of what they call “Triune Salvation” — the past, present, and future work of Jesus in the life of the believer. Together they unpack: * Justification — being made righteous through faith in Jesus * Sanctification — daily transformation through intimacy with Christ and the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit * Glorification — the future hope of complete restoration when Jesus returns Emily shares vulnerably about years of striving, shame, and trying to earn nearness to God through performance, discipline, and religious activity—and how the revelation of the finished work of Jesus completely transformed her relationship with God. This conversation explores: * Why sanctification is not behavior modification * The freedom found in renewing your mind * How the blood of Jesus brings us near * The difference between an old covenant mindset and a new covenant reality * What it means to live dependent on the Holy Spirit * The true meaning of the Greek word sozo — saved, healed, and delivered * Why intimacy with Jesus—not striving—is what transforms us If you’ve ever felt trapped in cycles of shame, condemnation, perfectionism, or spiritual striving, this episode is an invitation to rediscover the freedom, nearness, and power of the Gospel. You are not called to clean yourself up before coming to God. You are called to come boldly because of the blood of Jesus.
