In this podcast, Jonathan shares a message about the way that Mary, the mother of Jesus, courageously prayed and changed history. This prayer of Mary: “Let it be unto me according to your word” is a prayer we can say in just a breath—yet, it’s one of those prayers we could explore the rest of our lives. We never come to the end of discovering more of God. This message is from our Cageless Birds community night—our weekly gathering where we worship and fellowship together as a group of friends.

The book Jonathan read from, “Walking on Water” by Madeleine L'Engle is one of our favorite books on faith and creativity. We highly recommend it.

“Our emotions are the language that our hearts speak. I believe that they are a gift from God that help us understand what is going on inside of us.”

In this episode, Jonathan teaches on The Head to Heart Journey. This teaching is from the first lesson of Engaging Sound—an online workshop by the Helsers and Cageless Birds on connecting with God through instrumental music. Jonathan will lead you in a prompt to make your own journey from your head to your heart. Jonathan and Melissa also dialogue about why they expanded and revised Cultivate Volume I: The Head to the Heart Journey, almost 10 years after its first print. With 17 new writings, the updated Volume I is full of the spiritual disciplines and stories that Jonathan and Melissa teach in their 18 Inch Journey school and live out daily in community. 

The Head to Heart Journey is a value that we’re invited to live out as children of God—to move from the facts we know about God in our heads into trusting and believing Him deeply in our hearts. To learn more about Cultivate and Engaging Sound, you can visit www.jonathanhelser.com, www.cagelessbirds.com, or engagingcultivate.com. 

“God has been writing our story, and it is a miracle that we’re in the room right now. One day when we get to heaven we’re going to read this story, and be absolutely astonished at how He's been writing it all along.”

In this episode, Jonathan shares stories from his life and Scripture that illustrate this truth, that Jesus is the most wonderful Author of our stories in the big, and all of the inbetween moments.
