S4E1: How do we draw closer to God?

Welcome to S4E of Martha's Talk! 

In today's episode, we are going to speak about growing our relationship with Jesus. While some know me as Tasha, God changed my name to Martha. He also called me to be an Apostle. This simply means, that he commissioned me to go wherever he sends me to preach or teach the gospel, in truth and in love. Martha's Talk is a talk show in which I share the love of Christ for humanity, in Spirit and in Truth.

In today's episode we are going to go over:

• Desires
• Spiritual Maturity
• Trials & Tribulations
• Justification, Sanctification, and Glorification

• John 16:33 “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
