044 - Called to Disciple feat. Pastor Netz Gomez

Jesus, before ascending back to Heaven, left us with one final commission: to go and make disciples of all nations. But what is a disciple, and must we be discipled ourselves? How does this work? Is it some complicated process? This week, Pastor Netz Gomez answers these questions, and brings clarity to why discipleship is necessary in our walk with the Lord. https://www.instagram.com/antman242/ https://www.tiktok.com/@anthony_recio?lang=en Pastor Netz's Contact Information: - Insta: @pastornetzgomez

043 - Shifting Gears and Changing Lanes

When do you know if it's time to move on to something new? Do you ever really know? Are you meant to be somewhere longterm, or was it just for a season? The best way to find out is by asking the Lord, and this week we touch on just that, as I feel many of us are in a shift in our lives (or in the process of one), whether big or small. So let's listen in and see what the Holy Spirit has in store. https://www.instagram.com/antman242/ https://www.tiktok.com/@anthony_recio?lang=en

042 - From the Big Apple to the Secret Place feat. Diana Judith Prado

What makes a person want to uproot their entire life and go from one side of the country to the other just to follow a move of God? Well, my guest today did just that! Diana went from living in New York City to moving across the country to serve at the Heartbeat Prayer room as a full time missionary. But why? And why have so many others decided that living radically for Jesus is so worth?

041 - Journey Down the Prodigal Road feat. Angelo Castro

Many of us have begun walking with the Lord and then, for some reason or another, strayed away. Eventually, when we realized that life away from God wasn't all it was cracked up to be, shame, guilt, and pain crept in. Fortunately we have a Savior who welcomes us back with open arms, with a love that surpasses all our understanding! That is the story of our guest this week, Angelo Castro. Listen in to what caused him to walk away, and what eventually attracted him back to the feet of Jesus. And with an open heart, I know the Lord has something special for you too. https://www.instagram.com/antman242/ https://www.tiktok.com/@anthony_recio?lang=en Angelo Castro's Contact Information: - Insta: @renatus.______

040 - From Darkness to Light feat. Victor Rivera

When you first meet someone, you only see what's before you. You don't see what came before or what's to come of them. Yet God sees all and knows exactly why you met. When it comes to Victor, I didn't know him more than just a guy who loved Jesus, dressed in all black, and was always there, ready to serve. Learning where he came from and seeing where he is today, I can honestly say the Lord has weaved and amazing tale through his testimony. And it's only just begun, not unlike many of ours. Listen in to hear how God pulled Victor out of darkness and into a life full of hope and light! https://www.instagram.com/antman242/ https://www.tiktok.com/@anthony_recio?lang=en Victor Rivera's Contact Information: - Insta: @ywamvic
