In this episode of Seeking with Shari, “2025 in Retrospect,” Shari takes a moment to breathe and look back on a whirlwind year. Released just after Christmas, this episode traces the journey of the ministry from its initial spark in February through the months of 2025. Shari emphasizes that the metrics of success aren’t found in the “activity,” but in the individual lives touched—whether through encouragement, deliverance from harmful habits, or finding salvation in Jesus. She affirms that while the ministry isn’t for everyone, God specifically intended it for “SOMEBODY.”
Shari also invites listeners to connect personally by emailing seekingwithshari@gmail.com to share prayer requests, questions, or stories of how the ministry has impacted them.
Through her message and these scriptures, she highlights the value of every single soul:
-
Acts 2:38-41 – “Peter replied, ‘Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins… Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day'”. This passage describes the explosive growth of the early church, reminding us that the goal of ministry is people responding to the Gospel, changing their lives, and joining the family of believers.
-
John 6:35-40 – “And this is the will of him who sent me, that I shall lose none of all that he has given me, but raise them up at the last day”. Jesus declares Himself the Bread of Life and reveals the Father’s heart: that He is intimately concerned with keeping and saving every specific individual given to Him. It underscores that if even one person is drawn to God, the work is worth it.
