Flipping Tables and Making It Nice

On this podcast episode, Yemi and Philia discuss the miracle Jesus performed when he healed the blind and lame in the temple courts (Matthew 21:12-17). In this miracle story, we see Jesus enter the house of God, become angry with what he sees and then flipping the money changing tables before healing those brought to him. Even in his rebuke of the people disrespecting the house of the Lord, he still finds time to heal. Jesus shows judgment and redemption within seconds. He shows us that no matter what we may do in this life, he always has love and mercy for us. This is the sacrifice given for us, the gift of Jesus. He was bruised for our iniquities so that we can have redemption. Now is the time to ask for forgiveness and give forgiveness freely.

Full of love and light, Philia is dedicated to loving all in need. Philia's giving heart ensures that her home is always full of those seeking shelter, warmth, healing and love, which she freely gives. Philia feels joy in diving deeper in her relationship with God and sharing her God given gifts, talents, and abilities with others. Her goal is to be a walking, living, breathing testimony of God's transformative power of love. The love of God shines brightly through Philia and anyone in her vicinity is drawn to that light.

Yemi - A native Brooklynite, Nigerian-American, Lawyer, Friend and Day One Christian. Yemi is a woman of passion and love for God. She takes time to understand life through the lens of her faith while finding most situations authored by God's comedy. Her desire to grow in faith came during her 2017-2018 episode of depression. She surrendered to God and felt peace in trusting in the Lord. God led her to start a live bible study and prayer call which flourished for two years with the help of her co-host Philia. Yemi desires to share her faith journey and struggles with everyone near and far. She relishes in the transformation and testimonies of others and her heart is most full when she is spreading love.
