Follow Jesus Podcast

All good movies have a clear plot driving the story forward. In this raw and real Bible study of the Book of Revelation and Romans 1 Faith asks, have believers lost the plot in God's beautiful story and forgotten that we are not the main character, but Jesus Christ is?

What do you call it when you're a Christian on Sunday, but Monday-Saturday you're a totally different person? C U L T U R A L C H R I S T I A N I T YMaybe we know someone who is a "cultural Christian", maybe we've been one, or maybe we are one...York and Faith discuss what it means to be a "cultural Christian," why it's actually a prison of performance, what the Bible has to say about living like one, and how grace enables us to truly live the way that Jesus commands.

Mad at God? Yeah, we have too. In fact, most people have been in this place before. The shocker...you may have been mad at God and didn't even realize it. The good news? God's not mad at you. In fact He loves you and wants to walk with you through this thing. He's waiting to be invited into your pain, disappointment, and unmet expectations. York and Faith have an honest, vulnerable, and hopeful conversation about what to do when we find ourselves mad at God and how God is able to show you that He has never left your side, even when you felt like you were walking through the valley of the shadow of death. 

What happens when Church leaders and well known Christians fail and fall publicly?Regardless of whether it's a pastor, vocal Christian leader, Christian musician, actor, or famous Christian personalities, there is a real impact both in the Christian environment/world and on unbelievers who hear of it. York and Faith ask and discuss the tough questions that arise as a result of the public fallout. 

As Christians we have not only been equipped but also commanded to influence those around us; but that influence should not look like just anything and we have to ask and honestly answer this question: what we are leading people to? Christ or ourself? Matthew 28:18-20       18 And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”York and Faith have an honest conversation about the growth of Christian influencers and podcasts, as well as the need for discernment, discipleship, accountability, and submission to Godly authority with personal access to us. 

A painful or difficult waiting season can make you feel like this moment isn't temporary, it's forever going to be this way. But, part of God's mercy is that time passes and seasons change. Don't give up before your breakthrough, just remember that delay isn't denial it's just delay. If you do not give up you win. York and Faith have a vulnerable and helpful conversation sharing keys to walking through waiting seasons and pain while maintaining your faith, fighting the temptation to sin, and staying connected to people who are going to help you make it to the other side. 

The Bible says that if we claim to have no sin then we are lying, and yet we are called to be righteous. So how do we break free of habitual sin? York and Faith discuss why it's important to get free and stay free of repetitive sin cycles and they give practical steps to living victorious over sin. #bible #freedom #faith #christianity #Jesus #followJesus #hope #spirituality #faithjourney #Christian

Who you attach your life to matters. We spend much of our lives in school but spend so little time learning about how to have godly, lasting relationships, and yet somehow we are supposed to know how to have successful relationships and marriages. York and Faith address vulnerable and relevant issues and questions about how to move from trauma to having healthy relationships, what makes a godly relationship, having a "type", struggles with sin, and more in this engaging episode. 

None of us is perfect. But, are there things that we can be unintentionally doing as believers that make us seem fake to both unbelievers and fellow Christians? York & Faith ask the real questions and get vulnerable as we discuss being authentic, hypocrisy, loving people well, church hurt and trying to save face. #faith #faithjourney #christian #christianity #Jesus #jesuschrist #church #podcast #spirituality #community #bible #marriage #hope

God loves you. He really does. It’s that simple and it’s that complicated. You didn’t earn it and you can’t work to feel it. You can ONLY RECEIVE it. ❤️“Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. We love Him because He first loved us.”‭‭I John‬ ‭4‬:‭7‬, ‭9‬-‭10‬, ‭19‬ ‭NKJV‬‬#jesus #God #godlovesyou #jesuslovesyou❤️ #jesuschrist #followjesus #podcast #faith #spirituality #brycecrawford #brycecrawfordpodcast

⚠️ Trigger Warning: This episode discusses issues of abuse and self harm and may be distressing for some listeners. Please take care while listening.Humiliation. Bullying. Abuse. Trauma. All of these things can bring shame to our heart and life. But, Jesus doesn't see us by what has happened to us, He sees us through the lens of His love and His blood that washed us clean. York and Faith have a real and raw conversation about the painful things that can attach shame to us and explore the ways that we can break free from shame and hiding and into experiencing the acceptance and love that God has for us. 

Why do we still struggle with shame when Jesus Christ came to set us free from it? What's the difference between feeling guilty for doing something wrong, feeling shame, condemnation, and conviction? And what can I finally do to break free from the shame that I've lived with so long? These are some of the questions that York and Faith discuss on this week's episode of the Follow Jesus Podcast as they dive into part 1 of a two-part series on shame. Music Credit :"Journey":https://uppbeat.io/t/tatami/journeyLicense code: CTJ5BLUZH341SHZ2

Don't let the discomfort of delay, pause, and the pressure of pain have you disqualify yourself in this season from what you are called to in the next season. No matter what you're in the middle of you can sow good seeds now for a harvest later.  #Jesus #followjesus #podcast #marriedcouple #faith #spirituality #Christian #Christianity #encouragement

But, at the same time it is a command of Jesus. York + Faith have a real conversation about why forgiveness is hard, why it's essential, and HOW we can practically forgive things that have felt unforgivable. 

We can often find ourselves going between two ditches, either reveling in offense or refusing to admit when we are offended. But, there is a better way, living unoffendable. York and Faith talk about how to navigate a world consumed with offense and ultimately live free of it.
