Godly Passion, Holy Flame

by Kevin Mote

A clarion call to the men of God in the TriCities and beyond. This ministry exists to challenge and inspire you, and to light a torch of holy fire within your heart, that you might serve and love the Lord God Almighty with all the passion of a warrior. My name is Kevin Mote. I'm just another dude trying to love the Savior with all my heart and mind and guts. I'm passionate about Scripture, I'm passionate about the Kingdom, and I want to do nothing more than to spend the rest of the breaths left in these lungs to tell people about the King that rescued me. I hope you find that this podcast is all about Him and not about me, but just in case you'd like to know a little bit more about the guy you're listening to: I'm a grey-haired husband and father of four. In my day job I'm the manager of a software group working for a government-sponsored environmental cleanup company. But my dream is to someday go rogue and start my own cloud-sourced software company building f

    "But I think it is necessary to send back to you Epaphroditus, my brother, co-worker and fellow soldier, who is also your messenger, whom you sent to take care of my needs.

  5. The Old Rugged Cross

    This week we will be celebrating Good Friday. And, of course, words like "celebrating" and "Good" don't quite feel appropriate for the atrocious execution that took place on this day. But it's my goal today to remind you of some of the reasons that we have to "cherish that old rugged cross."…

  10. Project Philippians - Trailer (Ch 1)

    Many of you have already heard about the new podcast that I began recently. This is just a little promotional trailer that I put together to try to spread the word and to encourage other disciples who might be interested in the type of "deep-dive Scriptural analysis" that Project: Philippians is...

  11. Introducing: Project Philippians

    Today I'd like to invite you into a sneak peak of a new project that I have been praying about for months. It is an ambitious new venture -- one that could only be accomplished if the Lord is in it. But, if He is, I believe this project may have a lasting impact in the spirtual journey of many...

  12. Back Forty

    Regardless of how old you are or how many years you already have under your treads, your story is not finished yet. Neither is mine. And the challenging question that has been swirling around in my head recently is, "What am I going to do with the time I have left?" As I've been meditating on…

  16. A Season of Silence

    Welcome to the final episode in Season Two of the Holy Flame podcast. I have to say Farewell, for a while, but I just I'd leave you with you a final verse, a final challenge, and a final prayer. Hope to see you again in the Fall! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  19. Epistle to the Ephesians

    Today I want to read through another epic book of the Bible: Ephesians. I love this book because it's like a dense gem -- a summary of the entire Bible. All the major themes of Scripture converge in this one little letter. From Creation to the Cross to the Coming again; from grace, to peace, to...

  20. Epistle to the Phillipians

    The book of Philippians was written by the Apostle Paul while he sat chained in Roman custody.

I invite you to take the next few moments to sit…

  21. Invitation to Happiness

    How would your friends rate your joy level? Would your wife or your colleagues characterize you as an uncommonly happy person?

  23. Two Words

    Some of you know what it's like to get to the end of yourself, after giving everything you've got, and then slam right into the brick wall of exhaustion. Long distance runners know all about it, but it's not just athletes that can deplete their resources. I'd like to give you two words that can...

  24. A Posture of Praise

    Psalm 63:4 calls on us to "praise the Lord as long as we live, lifting up our hands in His name." For some of you, this gesture of raising hands to praise God might be perfectly natural for you. Others are a little less comfortable with this type of expression in their worship. But regardless of...

  25. John Mark's Story, 1st Cent AD

    Recently I was inspired to study the backstory of one of the little-known characters in the Bible -- but one who has had a profound impact on the history of the entire Church. What began with just some curiosity on my part turned into a major historical/Biblical research project and a short...

  27. Unto Us A Child (Isaiah 9)

    [First published: Aug 2019] Some passages of Scripture can become so familiar to us (especially those that we hear every holiday season) that they are at risk of losing their impact in our hearts. It is my prayer that Isaiah's famous "Christmas prophesy" might be rescued from such a fate, because...

  28. While it was Still Dark (Mark 1:35)

    What is the first thing you do in the morning? When the snooze alarm is finally silenced, what is the first thing that you've got to get into your system? Because, whatever it is, it says a lot about you as a man -- about your character, about your values, about what really matters to you. Which…

  29. The Battle of Prayer

    I can guarantee you that there has been nothing more critical to my own spiritual formation then learning to cultivate an intensity of intercession. This week I learned that this type of battle can literally shake the heavens. On 10/10 at 10am, two dozen men braved pneumonia to gather on the…

  30. Lessons on Needing God

    Today I'd like to share some of the painful, hard-won lessons that I've learned recently about what it means to really "need" God and why the spiritual life is sometimes just so blisteringly difficult. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    AW Tozer once wrote, "Come near to the holy men and women of the past and you will soon feel the heat of their desire after God.

  35. Make Your Case

    If Christianity is true -- I mean really, actually, capital "T" True -- how should that impact your heart? What would your life look like if you genuinely believed it all? Can you articulate the life-changing benefits of belonging to Jesus? Recently, I had the opportunity to have that…

  36. First Podcast (Recast from 2019)

    The "Godly Passion, Holy Flame" podcast started out years ago as a simple way for me to share what's on my heart for the guys in my life and community.
