On today’s episode of the Journeywomen podcast, I’m chatting with Nancy Guthrie about the New Heavens and the New Earth! If you have ever wondered how the Bible’s story has always been headed towards glory and how that reality impacts our everyday, Nancy and I talk about that for the entire episode. (Well, really Nancy talks and I ask questions.)⠀ ⠀ Listen to what she said, “We’re not simply headed towards the restoration that was in Eden. Because Eden, as good, as beautiful, as pristine as it was, when we read the story in Genesis 1-2 in Eden, it was just the beginning! It was filled with potential. If Adam and Eve obeyed, Eden wouldn’t have necessarily stayed the way that it was forever. If they obeyed, Eden would have gone from good to glorious!” ⠀ ⠀ Ya’ll, Nancy is one of my modern-day heroes. So you’ll know her a little better, she teaches the Bible through numerous Bible study books, at her home church, Cornerstone Presbyterian Church in Franklin, Tennessee, as well as at conferences around the country and internationally. She offers companionship and biblical insight to the grieving through Respite Retreats that she and her husband, David, host for couples who have faced the death of child, through the GriefShare video series, and through books such as Holding on to Hope and Hearing Jesus Speak into Your Sorrow. Her newest book, Even Better Than Eden: Nine Ways the Bible’s Story Changes Everything About Your Story released last month! She is also the host of the “Help Me Teach the Bible” podcast at The Gospel Coalition, which, by the way, is my favorite. I am so thankful for Nancy’s encouragement to look forward to and yearn for the new heavens and the new earth! As always, you can find our conversation now at the link in our profile!⠀ ⠀ ep. 70 | the new heavens and the new earth | @nancyguthrienashville
“Humility is a right self-concept where you understand who you are as a limited, created person who is a servant to her King. It means embracing the boundaries of our humanity.”⠀ ⠀ ep. 69 | humility | @hannah_._anderson⠀

“The essence of gospel-humility is not thinking more of myself or thinking less of myself, it is thinking of myself less.” - Tim Keller⠀ ⠀ At first glance, this feels impossible. How can we stop the running commentary of our own hearts? How do we stop the constant barrage of inner dialogue about ourselves—our needs, our disappointments, our successes, and our failures? The answer isn’t to empty our minds of ourselves, but to fill our minds with God. This shift of focus offers a new lens for evaluating our circumstances. They are no longer personal attacks or personal triumphs, but instead become opportunities for us to be sanctified and for God to be glorified.⠀ ⠀ ep. 69 | humility | @hannah_._anderson⠀
The gospel is centered around humility—a right understanding of ourselves in relationship with God. God created us to live in submissive relationship with him. The fall was Adam and Eve’s desire to be like God, breaking their dependent relationship with their creator. It was to restore this brokenness that Jesus came. He walked a life of humble humanity so he might experience and sympathize with the depth of our weakness. Then he humbly submitted his desire to the will of God the Father, taking on the wrath that we deserved that we might receive the gift of right relationship with God. Although in this life we may constantly struggle with pride, one day we will be fully redeemed and it will be our joy to walk in perfectly right relationship with God.⠀ ⠀ ep. 69 | humility | @hannah_._anderson⠀
