Thrive Perspectives: DJ Paine's 2020

Episode Notes

This episode {and the last one} is a little different. We turn our attention to your hosts {and friends} Matthew Jacoby and DJ Paine. We ask a simple question: "What has been the big lessons for YOUR 2020?" For this episode DJ really opens up his heart and shares three big lessons of his personal 2020. We hope that this ep is helpful in a few ways: You just get to know your host DJ Paine a bit more. You are encouraged and even challenged by what God has taught him in 2020. You are prompted to take stock of your 2020, what has God been doing in YOUR life? DJ Paine is online here {and everywhere} and you can follow his instagram here. We are asking you this month to consider becoming a monthly financial supporter of the show - please take a moment and sign up here: https://5iveonline.com/product/thrive-today-podcast-crowd-support/ for all things Thrive go here: https://thrivetoday.tv

Meet The Presenters

Dr Matt Jacoby

Matt is the teaching pastor at his church in Victoria, Australia, lecturer at the Melbourne School of Theology, an author, a songwriter and, a musician leading the Psalms project band Sons of Korah.

Matt has a doctorate in philosophy and theology from the University of Melbourne, and is the author of the daily Bible reading guide Thrive launched in 2005.

In Deeper Places, Matt shares a rich portrait of authentic spirituality. A gifted teacher and Bible scholar, Matthew is invited to speak at conferences and churches where he brings a fresh but foundational perspective to Scripture.

“I do a lot of teaching these days in my various roles but I always see myself more as a learner. I love learning. I enjoy academic learning and because of that I am a perpetual student of many disciplines. But most of all I love learning to live life the way God made me to live it.” MJ

DJ Paine

DJ is a podcaster, photographer and has had a number of years experience as a Christian Radio Breakfast announcer. He would consider himself a professional Christian music geek & amateur Bible nerd. DJ was raised on the Gold Coast and studied at Word Of Life Bible College in Sydney.

Devoted husband of Benita Paine and proud of their three boys: the #BrothersPaine

“If you have ever wondered if God has a place for you in His plan... or if you have ever felt you are just a round peg trying to fit into a square hole... well I want to encourage you: if God can use a goof like me then we are all in good hands! I love the scriptures and if I can leave any legacy behind it is simply to say: read the Bible, the Bible is God’s light by which we can really see the universe.” DJ
