- Do you want to spend more time with God? Are you looking for a fresh perspective on the Bible? Are you in a season where you're trying to reconnect with the Lord? Sometimes there are moments when we feel disconnected from our faith, but there are plenty of ways to renew our faith. In this podcast, Lisa Harper joins me to talk about:
• Her relationship with God through different stages of life
• Spending time with the Lord
• The beauty and love found in Bible stories
• Renewing your faith
Lisa is a writer, speaker and Bible teacher who has walked with Jesus for most of her life. She knows a lot about the Bible and communicates the word of God with ease. Lisa tells me about her journey of faith and how her relationship with God has changed throughout her life. We can all go through seasons where we feel spiritually dry or distant from our faith, and Lisa's perspective is refreshing and practical. Throughout this episode, Lisa talks about how we can learn to see God in a new way and shares simple ways we can spend time with him each day. We also talk about what we've learned from reading the Bible and how it's strengthened our individual faiths.
As you listen, I hope you're reminded that God is with you in each and every moment of your day. God loves you and is with you in all things.
Be sure to tag us @biancaolthoff and @lisadharper, we'd love to learn about the ways you spend time with God!
Love you,
B

Quotes from Lisa
- God is not a proposition to be studied, He is a person with whom we engage.
- Theology is not even a subject matter, it's a lifestyle. Theology is having conversations about God.

There was this wealthy judge who worked a lot, and he would drop off his son at school and rush to work. His son was problematic at school and thought his father didn't love him. One day, for a school project, the students needed to write a letter to their parents and the parents to their children. When the judge's son open his letter and read it at school he was so happy, and full of joy, his dad had written a beautiful letter telling him how much he loved him and wished they would spend more time together, how he thought he was so bright and so many other wonderful thoughts. This son ran to the principal shouting look my dad really loves me. His attitude changed and was not problematic anymore. He was so happy to read and know his father truly loved him and wanted to share it with others. READING THE BIBLE IS THAT LOVE LETTER OF GOD THE FATHER TELLING US HOW MUCH HE LOVES US, if we dont read it we will be like the son in life.

Lisa my southern sister, you make me spit out my Sweet Tea alot and your humility towards Jesus is amazing and such a light and example!!
I just love Lisa.... A great teacher of the word. Should we talk about beautiful she is.
Thank you ladies for sharing. Im so broken since the passing of my husband 6 months ago.
Lisa Harper is awesome! I LOVE listening to her!!!
My favorite orator! @ Lisa Harper. I've gleaned so much from her. But, of course, @Biancaolthoff, you too are also. ❤❤ Thank you both for representing God's women warriors around the world who love to impart his Word. 👋 ❤
Your pod came across my feed this morning and the title made me tune in. Never heard of you and I believe I recognized Lisa from acting, maybe!?!? I was honestly half way listen then something Lisa said caught me. I stopped and before I knew it I was crying. Love it! Her! And you for sharing! Close the Bible. What? It hit my heart hard. My disconnect and burden carried due to not adding up to what the world deemed as being connected and for her to say put it down. She doesn’t even know the release she has opened up for people. Thank you so much!!!!!! Journal and book Please!
SO GOOD. Im so excited to be growing in my walk with God. @LisaHarper you are amazing.
I’m new to Bianca. SO good!!!

I have recently found Lisa and have been obsessed with her preaching style. Wathching her has brought me to your channel and now I am a follower of you as well. Two beautiful women of God that also have a good sense of humor. I love it!
This blessed my soul🥺
❤
Dear Bianca you are so dear & loved. Thank you for bringing Lisa Harper on as I love her too. #LisaDHarper # #BiancaOltoff. You are both beautiful daughters of our God. I've learned He loves me too. Took me 50 yrs to believe I can pray for others & prayers are answered as He's a loving Father and in miracle business still. Took me 70 yrs to know in my knower He loves me. 71 yrs to see how He sees me through the blood of Jesus and doesn't hold my past journey against me where what I sowed was held against me; He has a continual conversation with me as am just having spiritual ears to hear. Am still healing from eye surgery & retinal inflammation though in physical am hard of hearing I believe by His stripes am healed. ✝️ Blessings to you @BiancaOtloff, @LisaDHarper. Though takes looking through magnifying glass to write this may the blessings I pray for you go directly to our heavenly Father for you.🙏🙏🙏
Lisa D Harper 😂 I absolutely love you. You are one of my top 5 women of God on my wish list to meet in person and hug ❤❤❤😘

I’ve been praying for a spiritual mama like Lisa 😭
So so true. The Holy Spirit will reveal things to me when I'm reading the Bible and I can't wait to pick it up again and continue reading. He ties all things together. The Bible is amazing!!! So many hidden gems
Two of favorite ladies teaching about the Word and Jesus!!! What a great morning!!!
I admire the way Bianca listens.
Lisa, I don't know if you will ever see, much less read this, but your skin is amazing. NO one would guess your true age.
Bianca, April what?
Good evening ladies. I haven't heard Bianca in a long time and this is my 1st time hearing Lisa. Just wow. I had to pull over through tears to stop and listen. Thank you. This was just what my heart needed. Blessings to both of you and your ministries.
I love you two ladies so much!! This was the most amazing podcast I’ve listened to. I can’t wait to order the devotional. Love you both. God bless you both.

The part about exploiting parts of our story
Thank you Lord for these two woman of God, so delightful and what I needed this morning Bianca and Lisa thank you for all that you do, what a way to spread the love of Jesus, I know we all say we love Jesus humbly thank you
I love this ladies so much!!!! Hopefully one day I get to meet them
Oh my, Lisa! Your testimony resonates so much like mine. I didn’t know it was okay to feel the feelings you shared. I’ve always felt ashamed and scared, too. Anyways, thank you so much for sharing this! I’m going to keep listening to all these podcasts that have helped me in a season of my life where I didn’t know what to do anymore. ❤
I love this. And yes I love your makeup too!
Awesome message! Love it! You guys are Amazing!
My two favorite women to listen to. Both are powerful preacher! Hoping to get back to LA soon Pastor Bianca!! Thanks for all you both do!
❤😊❤😊
@lisadharper @biancaolthoff love you ladies to life!!!! Be encouraged in Christ ❤
My two favorite lady leaders of the Word! I totally needed this chat. It’s been a while since I have opened my bible, I felt like it was a task and not a connection. Also, I hope when this makeup session gets uploaded on socials so we can see those lashes on Lisa.
Thank you. I want your books.
Love their relationship ❤
Love the comment about makeup ❤
Love this!!!
That was so good and I can't wait to see Lisa's makeup done by Bianca. I was thinking the same thing as Lisa. Just moments before she said that I took a screenshot when Bianca blinked so that I can copy her eyeshadow. 😂 P.S. The Bible is never boring if you remember God is using it to speak to you personally and draw to your attention what you need at that time. ❤
would love that journal to help me in my journey which is a ride filled with peaks and valleys each day!
@biancaolthoff, @lisadharper Thank you both for some great insight on how we can allow ourselves to connect with God without our Bibles and journal open. Thank you.Would love those 2 books.!
Me too!!!
I want to love Gods word like both of you! How do I do that???
You just start reading a little each day. Even a verse. Then close your eyes and try to meditate on that for the day - ask the Holy Spirit to help you love God’s word and He will
@@networthassoc2006 thank you!! 🙏
Full house. Great. By
@biancaoltoff @lisadharper Loved this! Thank you. ❤😊

Could I please have one of the devotional books I could really use it
I was really hoping to have found a new podcast to listen too after seeing Bianca was a guest on Candice’s podcast. Unfortunately I was really disappointed when she recommended Jesus Calling written by a woman who dares to speak on behalf of GOD and then with her guest Lisa claiming that the woman at the well was married 5 times. I believe the woman stated she had no husband and when Jesus replied “you have had five husbands and the one you have now is not your husband” can be translated as she has had 5 men and was with a 6th man. I am afraid her explanation of this encounter could be misleading which makes me question some of her other thoughts.

Let’s also be careful about painting pictures of people who love systematic theology for what it reveals about God in ways that may not be true. Not all Christians are as expressive with their feelings as others and it does not mean they are as dry, stiff, heartless, loveless, emotionless, etc etc etc. as you may be perceiving them to be. Get to know these stiff, cold, boring, dry, sock wearing, Bible loving, God loving, people before making assumptions based on caricatures that turn them into a person who is merely using the Bible to guilt and shame you. Let’s stop making false assumptions about either Bible and Jesus loving crowd and do more embracing of everyone else’s unique personalities, gifts, talents, and abilities while taking our petty hurts and grievances to the Lord and offering forgiveness and the covering of multitudes of sins in love for others. Women can be expert old wound and hurt nursers. Jesus understands your pain better than any other human being ever could.
Mark Lowery likes to say, “Show me your wounds!”
But Jesus says, “touch my wounds” and “come to me” and “I am yours; you are mine” and “get up and walk” and “I came that you would have life, abundantly” and “I am with you always.” Dry seasons are a normal part of the Christian walk. Jesus said he will never leave you during the dry times or the dark times. Jesus is The Balm of Gilead in whom your sick soul will find healing. Forgive me for sort of posting verses from the Bible. I’m in a difficult season of life and I need these Bible verse reminders right now even though I’m not reading and studying my Bible in this valley because they are little glimmers of what I’ve already tucked away in my heart during mountain top Bible study times. Music is often my go to during times like this and "Hold On" by Katy Nichole is in my current play list. May God’s grace, mercy, and peace bless you all forever and ever and ever!
Who?
Well, this sounded pretty interesting when it came across my TH-cam feed, but as soon as Beth Moore was mentioned, I’m out of here 😏👋🏼
