Ep. 115 What to Do at the End
Are We Living in the End Times?With so many theories, conspiracies, and flat-out misinformation swirling around the topic of the end times, it’s no wonder many followers of Jesus feel confused, uneasy, or even avoid the topic altogether. We’ve all been in that moment—sitting in a conversation…

Ep. 109 The Story of Four Chairs
That one extraordinary Sunday morning changed everything. And yet, maybe for you, Easter feels more like a distant tradition than a present-day hope. Maybe the heaviness of life—the stress, the heartache, the weariness—makes it hard to connect with feelings of hope. If that’s you, I want you to...
-
Ep. 108 A Cry for Help

-
Ep. 103 Making Disciples Pt. 1

-

Ep. 97 Emmanuel- God Between Us
When we begin to experience God in our relationships, it is a doorway to sustaining His presence not only in our Church but also in our homes and places of work. Close relationships serve a two-fold purpose. They are a mirror by which we see ourselves. The closer we get to people, the more we…
more -
Ep. 96 Emmanuel- God For Us
When we say, "I'm following Jesus," where exactly are you following Him? Heaven?

-
Ep. 95 Faith of Our Fathers
As an immigrant to the United States, I’m moved by the founding fathers' dedication to creating a “more perfect union” and the foresight they had to lay the foundation of a “nation under God.” The revolution's leaders were families who worked the principles that sustained their lives into a...
-
Ep. 93 When Heaven Comes- The Kingdom
Almost without fail, a few end-time predictors hope to ride the waves of false fervor and doomsday drama each Fall. Blindness to God’s greater work of redemption and ignorance of the Bible’s story leaves much room for rampant and useless anxiety. What is the Bible's story? It is a history of…

-
Ep. 88 Keep Going

When we discuss the challenges of raising children in this current cultural climate, we can agree on this- It seems harder now than in previous generations to raise our kids as healthy, godly, and successful parts of our family and community. We feel the fight against forces that we cannot…
more -
Ep. 86 The Practice of Sacrifice
It’s a hidden practice in the Christian faith that empowers believers. The practice of sacrifice is often neglected at a time when indulgence, self-promotion, and a need for perpetual praise are celebrated. Amidst these strong undercurrents, Jesus calls us to this simple yet powerful practice of...
-
Ep. 85 The Practice of Worship
Every soul longs for a realm void of conflict, suffering, and fear. This desire spans beyond a collective yearning to escape pain; it is a deep-seated hope to live in God’s unmitigated presence. Though some have had life-altering glimpses of God’s realm, which transform their lives, how can you...
-
Ep. 84 The Practice of Healing Part 2

Ep. 81 When God Ran

Ep. 79 Three crucial truths you learned from Mom
It is no coincidence that a mother’s birthing of a child is termed a time of “delivery” because moms nurture, develop, and lead as agents in the deliverance of many from the oppression of the enemy through their influence and maternal strength.
