Welcome to the in-dech podcast with Charles Stanley for Wednesday, January 3rd.

There's much more to salvation than looking forward to heaven.

It's about a journey with God every single day.

Today's podcast can help us catch a vision without boundaries.

Why is it some people have such fascinating dreams, tremendous goals, strong desires in their life, and

you'll hear them say something like this.

I have always wanted to do that. That's always been one of my goals in life. In fact, I've just dreamed to be able to do thus and so.

And then they will end that statement by saying, but, you know, I guess it just wasn't meant

our goals, reach our dreams, our strong desires in life simply because we unknowingly set boundaries, limitations upon ourselves, and just give up and consent to mental barriers we

originate ourselves and then wonder why we don't accomplish those things.

Well that can happen in a person's life, personally, it can happen in the life of a church.

Because unbeknown to us, we set boundaries boundaries and limitations we never even thought about.

They just subconsciously we set them, oh I couldn't do that, oh that won't really happen,

that's just a dream I have, certainly God wouldn't be in that. And so I want us to think today

not only about those things that happen in our personal life, but the things that

happen in our church life, what is true in our life personally will be projected in the life of the church.

What we hear in the church will be projected in our personal life.

So I want us to take a couple of passages that are very, very familiar to us, and I want us to think in terms primarily about the

church but also in your own personal life so I want you to turn to these two
