Grow Closer to Jesus | Christian Podcast, The Life of Jesus, Bible Verses, Renew Your Mind, Bible Study
Do you crave a deeper relationship with Jesus but aren't sure where to start?
Do you decide to read the Bible more and then the next thing you know 3 months have went by and it's still collecting dust in your top drawer? (no judgement here!)
Or you finally sit down to read it and feel overwhelmed with where to start?
You're in the right place!
Hi, I’m Dawn Shurley, host of Grow Closer to Jesus. This podcast gives you bite-sized biblical truths in a simple, real-life way — so that growing closer to Jesus feels like a warm invitation. God does not care if you are at your best or your worst... in your suit or in pajamas. He wants your heart... and His love is not based on your role or performance. He wants you as you are... and as you grow closer to Him... your life transforms because of Him. God created us for worship, not perfection... and Jesus makes a way for our imperfect selves to go straight before the throne to talk to our Father.
When we intentionally show up for Jesus each day, renew our mind with His Word, and let it sink deep into our heart, the Holy Spirit does what only He can — real, lasting transformation. If you’re ready to be intentional about growing closer to Jesus, this podcast is for you.
Grab your coffee or tea, open your heart, and let’s fall more in love with Jesus.
Love,
Dawn Shurley

If you would like give your life to Christ:
Jesus,
I come to You just as I am. I believe You are the Son of God, that You died for my sins and rose again. I confess that I need You. Forgive me, cleanse me, and make me new. I turn away from my old life and surrender myself fully to You. Be my Savior, my Lord, and my King. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit and lead my life from this day forward. I trust You with my past, my present, and my future.
Thank You,
Amen
Joyfully,
Dawn Shurley

After 42 generations of God holding to His promise to Abraham… and the prophet Isaiah’s message of a virgin birth, the One who will defeat Satan… and bless all families… is finally conceived. Let us praise Jesus this Christmas and every day.
Blessings,

This Christmas Season let’s appreciate that because of Abraham’s faith, and our Good God… God’s promise was fulfilled. Through Abraham’s bloodline, the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, came to fruition.
Merry Christmas!

The Bible is full of intricate threaded storyline from the start of creation… pointing toward the birth of Jesus, for thousands of years… and far beyond. The Word is alive and life giving. It’s clear why the Bible is the most purchased and read book of all time. Thank you God for the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
This is the first episode of Grow Closer to Jesus. Thank you for joining on this journey.
