Having Shod Your Feet with the Preparation of the Gospel of Peace

“Having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace.” We have many options when it comes to the type and style of shoe we wear, but what do shoes have to do with standing up against evil? In this short talk, we will discuss the importance of having the right “spiritual” shoe on as we walk through the challenges that we all face in this life. During our discussion, we will be reminded that Jesus Christ taught that our focus as His disciples must be on the Kingdom of God. With the help of several personal stories, we will discuss how to keep our focus and what action steps we can take to ensure we have the right shoes on.

This seminar was given during the 2024 Winter Family Weekend.
