If We Say We Follow Christ Then Live Like It

Drop us a note about the podcast. You can quote John 14 all day, but the words get real when life turns confusing and painful. We start with Jesus’ promise that we can ask for anything in his name, then slow down and ask what most people skip: are we praying for our will or God’s will? I talk through why “not my will, but thy will be done” is not a throwaway line, but the only way prayer stays rooted in trust instead of entitlement.From there, we move into Titus 2 and the gritty, everyday side of sound doctrine: self-control, respect, reverence, integrity, and speech that holds up under pressure. I wrestle with a conviction my pastor says often, that one of the biggest problems for the church is the church, because hypocrisy doesn’t just hurt our own souls, it teaches our kids the wrong lesson and gives outsiders a reason to scoff. Then we go to John 13 where Jesus makes it plain: love for one another is supposed to prove we’re his disciples, starting in our own homes.We also read from Psalm 119 and Proverbs 15 on teachability, correction, and growing in understanding, then shift into the moral argument I make about illegal and mass immigration after discussing real crimes and victims. To end on courage and duty, I share the Medal of Honor story of Navy SEAL Edward C. Byers Jr., and close with a brief heritage reflection on Woodrow Wilson taking the oath on Psalm 46 and what that says about America’s foundations as a Christian republic.
