Tangible Talks

Send us Fan MailWelcome to TangibleTalks! In this episode of our Third Seed Series, we're discussing "When Success Becomes a Burden." Our culture tells us we can have it all, achieve it all, and do it all—but what is the emotional and spiritual cost of chasing that promise? Through the wisdom of Joshua Becker and the teachings of Jesus, we'll explore how the relentless pursuit of more can distract us from what truly matters. We'll discuss why true success often requires saying "no," choosing contentment over accumulation, and seeking God's kingdom above earthly treasures. Join us as we discover how letting go of what doesn't matter creates space for the life God intended us to live.Tangible Talks podcast conducts conversations about applying the teachings of God in everyday situations that reveal Jesus. Show Music: "Brand New Day" by ReveilleShow Credits: Creative Producers & Hosts - Jana Hunt, Reata StricklandEditor - Jana Hunt Sound Design & Graphic Artist - Reata Strickland Website: https://www.tangibletalks.org/Instagram: @tangibletalksFacebook: tangibletalksContact: [email protected]#tangibletalks #tangibletakeaways 

Send us Fan MailWelcome to TangibleTalks! Today we're exploring "Hidden Idols of the Heart"—the desires we often don't recognize that can quietly take God's rightful place in our lives. While we may not bow to carved idols, things like control, approval, comfort, security, power, and position can become objects of our worship when they consume our hearts. Drawing from Scripture, including the parable of the sower, Ezekiel's warning to Israel, and 1 John 2:16, we'll discuss how these hidden idols grow unnoticed, deceive us, and ultimately shape our thoughts, choices, and actions. Join us as we uncover how to recognize these subtle heart idols and redirect our worship to God alone.Tangible Talks podcast conducts conversations about applying the teachings of God in everyday situations that reveal Jesus. Show Music: "Brand New Day" by ReveilleShow Credits: Creative Producers & Hosts - Jana Hunt, Reata StricklandEditor - Jana Hunt Sound Design & Graphic Artist - Reata Strickland Website: https://www.tangibletalks.org/Instagram: @tangibletalksFacebook: tangibletalksContact: [email protected]#tangibletalks #tangibletakeaways 

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of TangibleTalks, Jana and Reata explore the relationship between achievement and abiding, using John 14:6–14 as the foundation for their discussion. Reata honestly reflects on her tendency toward achievement and how abiding can sometimes seem passive, while Jana highlights the importance of maintaining a healthy balance between the two. Looking at Jesus’ example, they discuss how He first demonstrated what it means to abide in the Father before inviting His followers to abide in Him. Rather than simply giving instructions, Jesus modeled the process, showing that fruitful achievement flows from a place of connection and dependence on God. As part of the ongoing Third Seed series, the conversation examines how the distractions and pressures of life can crowd out this vital relationship, challenging listeners to pursue accomplishments that are rooted in abiding rather than striving alone.Tangible Talks podcast conducts conversations about applying the teachings of God in everyday situations that reveal Jesus. Show Music: "Brand New Day" by ReveilleShow Credits: Creative Producers & Hosts - Jana Hunt, Reata StricklandEditor - Jana Hunt Sound Design & Graphic Artist - Reata Strickland Website: https://www.tangibletalks.org/Instagram: @tangibletalksFacebook: tangibletalksContact: [email protected]#tangibletalks #tangibletakeaways 

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of TangibleTalks, Jana and Reata discuss "The Comparison Trap," the habit of measuring our lives, families, and worth against others. They explain that comparison steals joy, energy, time, and purpose, often fueled by social media and envy. Drawing from John 21:21–22, they emphasize that comparing ourselves to others distracts us from the unique purpose God has for our lives and our responsibility to follow Him. They also reference Matthew 7:3–5, which teaches the importance of focusing on our own growth and shortcomings before judging others. Ultimately, the episode encourages listeners to reject comparison, embrace their God-given path, and find contentment in who God created them to be.Tangible Talks podcast conducts conversations about applying the teachings of God in everyday situations that reveal Jesus. Show Music: "Brand New Day" by ReveilleShow Credits: Creative Producers & Hosts - Jana Hunt, Reata StricklandEditor - Jana Hunt Sound Design & Graphic Artist - Reata Strickland Website: https://www.tangibletalks.org/Instagram: @tangibletalksFacebook: tangibletalksContact: [email protected]#tangibletalks #tangibletakeaways 

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Tangible Talks, Jana and Reata explore one of life's most important questions: What are you really living for? Drawing from Psalm 51, they discuss how true fulfillment is not found in outward success or appearances, but in the condition of the heart and our innermost being. They examine how honesty with ourselves and with God lays the foundation for discovering truth, wisdom, identity, and purpose. When these foundational desires are aligned with our Creator's design, we experience joy and meaning; when they are not, life can feel empty and directionless. Join the conversation as they unpack what it means to live with purpose and pursue what truly matters.Tangible Talks podcast conducts conversations about applying the teachings of God in everyday situations that reveal Jesus. Show Music: "Brand New Day" by ReveilleShow Credits: Creative Producers & Hosts - Jana Hunt, Reata StricklandEditor - Jana Hunt Sound Design & Graphic Artist - Reata Strickland Website: https://www.tangibletalks.org/Instagram: @tangibletalksFacebook: tangibletalksContact: [email protected]#tangibletalks #tangibletakeaways

Drawing from Matthew 6 and Philippians 4, they discuss the subtle process of chronic worry, how it chokes out our joy, and how to find divine peace in the middle of life's daily battles.The Subtle Danger of Worry - Worry and anxiety rarely take over all at once. Instead, they creep in through a subtle, gradual process. If left unaddressed, dwelling on future unknowns or reliving past hurts will consume your daily life. As Jesus warned, these worldly cares will choke the life right out of you and leave you producing nothing.#tangibletalks  #tangibletakeawaysTangible Talks podcast conducts conversations about applying the teachings of God in everyday situations that reveal Jesus. Show Music: "Brand New Day" by ReveilleShow Credits: Creative Producers & Hosts - Jana Hunt, Reata StricklandEditor - Jana Hunt Sound Design & Graphic Artist - Reata Strickland Website: https://www.tangibletalks.org/Instagram: @tangibletalksFacebook: tangibletalksContact: [email protected]#tangibletalks #tangibletakeaways

Send us Fan Mail In this episode, we discuss how Jesus warned that the cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches can choke the life out of us. Additionally, we examine how possessions, anxiety, and endless striving leave us spiritually exhausted and why abundant life is found in surrender, not accumulation. We live in a world convinced that more is better; more money, more stuff, more achievement. But what if the constant pursuit of more is actually stealing our peace? In this episode, we uncover the lie of more and the freedom found in letting go. Tangible Talks podcast conducts conversations about applying the teachings of God in everyday situations that reveal Jesus. Show Music: "Brand New Day" by ReveilleShow Credits: Creative Producers & Hosts - Jana Hunt, Reata StricklandEditor - Jana Hunt Sound Design & Graphic Artist - Reata Strickland Website: https://www.tangibletalks.org/Instagram: @tangibletalksFacebook: tangibletalksContact: [email protected]#tangibletalks #tangibletakeaways 

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of The Third Seed, we take a deeper look at Jesus’ warning about the seed that falls among thorns and the worries, distractions, wealth, and possessions that slowly choke the life out of faith. What begins as a parable becomes a diagnosis of the heart, revealing how easily worldly cares can crowd out the Word of God and leave us spiritually drained. Together, we ask the hard questions: What is choking your faith? What are you holding onto that’s keeping God from bearing fruit in your life? Honest, convicting, and hope-filled, this conversation invites us to pray for open eyes, listening ears, and hearts free from thorns.  Tangible Talks podcast conducts conversations about applying the teachings of God in everyday situations that reveal Jesus. Show Music: "Brand New Day" by ReveilleShow Credits: Creative Producers & Hosts - Jana Hunt, Reata StricklandEditor - Jana Hunt Sound Design & Graphic Artist - Reata Strickland Website: https://www.tangibletalks.org/Instagram: @tangibletalksFacebook: tangibletalksContact: [email protected]#tangibletalks #tangibletakeaways

Send us Fan MailWelcome back to Tangible Talks podcast! We’re diving into Episode 2 of our Fellowship Series, and this time, we’re talking about something foundational, powerful, and beautifully designed — Fellowship in Marriage.From the very beginning, marriage was part of God's plan. Genesis 2:24 paints the picture, and Jesus reinforces it in Matthew 19: “The two will become one flesh.” Marriage is more than a social contract — it's a divine union, an expression of deep fellowship and intimacy created by God Himself.But as we all know, humans have a way of twisting what was meant to be a blessing. Still, the sacred design of marriage stands strong, echoing the profound relationship between Christ and the Church — His bride.Join us today, as we explore how marriage mirrors our fellowship with God, what it means for us today, and how we can walk in the fullness of the blessing of marriage.Scripture Referenced: Proverbs 12:4 A wife of noble character is her husband’s crown, but a disgraceful wife is like decay in his bones, 1 Peter 3:7  Husbands, in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers.Tangible Talks podcast conducts conversations about applying the teachings of God in everyday situations that reveal Jesus. Show Music: "Brand New Day" by ReveilleShow Credits: Creative Producers & Hosts - Jana Hunt, Reata StricklandEditor - Jana Hunt Sound Design & Graphic Artist - Reata Strickland Website: https://www.tangibletalks.org/Instagram: @tangibletalksFacebook: tangibletalksContact: [email protected]#tangibletalks #tangibletakeaways
