On this episode of Benevolence, we talk about our "Jesus Story" of how we came to know Christ as our personal Savior.

Your Jesus Story doesn't need to happen in a church service, or camp, you can encounter Jesus in any moment of your life. You just need to acknowledge that you need Him. Once you call upon the name of the Jesus, he will be there in a flash and rescue you! Make sure to tune in to hear what steps we took to have a personal relationship with Jesus.

On this FINAL episode of Season 8, we discuss Toxic traits that we find are very important to pay attention to and how to learn to spot the traits within others around you. Toxic traits refer to habits and behaviors that harm others. It's important that we identify these traits and find the necessary steps to better ourselves. Jesus is the only true and perfect example of how we should be and act towards others (and ourselves). If you find yourself struggling with any of these toxic traits, ask God to forgive you, to renew your mind and cleanse your heart. He's got everything you need! Make sure to tune in to hear more! Contact Us: Follow us on IG @benevolencepodcast, @iamcecidiaz & @janeesha_e Email us at: benevolencepodcast@gmail.com Thanks for listening and supporting us!
