Frequently Asked Questions

  • Our influence is alive and well and active when, by His grace, we live out of who God says we are.

  • We are all affected by others in our lives. This effect is actually our influence.  Trusting the truth of who God says I am has a profound effect on me and through me to others. This is the source of our positive influence.

  • The mountain is upside down because the influence of God in our lives turns our whole world upside down. Trusting in the personal work of Christ transforms the sinner into a saint. The evidence of the righteousness of the saint is love.

    Sounds upside down – doesn’t it?

  • Beginning with God’s interaction with Adam and Eve in the garden, the Bible is a book about God’s loving influence on mankind, and the influence of those who trust God with their world. It is a rewarding study to learn how Jesus influences others. His path is not what we often think it is. Jesus lived on earth only for a short time and His influence changed, and is still changing, the world.

  • Right now, our primary offering is the Living Influence Podcast, which is free to listeners. We will also be publishing a book in the coming months. Please join our mailing list to receive updates and new content.

  • The Living Influence team believes that Jesus is the son of God, the savior of the world, and that the Bible is the inspired word of God. Our teachings are based on these beliefs, and we believe our lives have been and continued to be changed by the truth of God‘s grace found in scripture.
