How Do I Grow: Embracing Discomfort
You cannot grow and stay comfortable at the same time.In this episode of Love In Your Wake, Ben, Carlie and Bethany continue the conversation on growth by tackling one of the biggest barriers we all face: the comfort zone.If you are listening, ask yourself honestly. Where have I settled? Where have I stopped stretching? What have I quietly decided is good enough?We talk about why growth always involves discomfort. Not chaos. Not trauma. But intentional stretch. The kind that builds resilience, capacity and grit.From gym training to public speaking, marriage counselling to combat sports, we unpack the principle of progressive overload. You do not grow by staying where it feels safe. But you also do not grow by blowing yourself up. Real growth happens when you step just outside your comfort zone, then return, reflect and go again.We explore:Why comfort can quietly become a growth barrierThe difference between productive discomfort and dysfunctionHow resilience is built through lived experienceWhy small wins create momentumHow growth in one area multiplies across your lifeThe power of community and choosing a tribe that challenges youThis episode is a call to intentional adversity.

It is practical. It is honest. And at times, it is confronting.Growth does not happen by accident.What you give attention to grows.If you sense that God is inviting you into something deeper this year, this episode will help you name it and take the first step.

God’s Future, Your Present… End times and us today - Rev Dr John Griffiths Part 2
What if we've been getting resurrection all wrong? Instead of some cosmic escape hatch from a doomed planet, what if it's actually God's way of saying, "I'm not done with this world yet"?Pentecostal scholar Rev Dr John Griffiths and Pastor Ben Teefy reveal how Pentecost’s outpouring of the Spirit on “all flesh” stretches past people to the whole ecosystem, turning stewardship into core Christian mission. That "trash the planet, we're getting raptured" theology? It's crumbling. Even if the Earth burned tomorrow, dismissing care for God's gift would still break the Giver's heart. Paul's coming fire isn't about destruction, it's about what lasts. And that work starts now, in ordinary moments when we love neighbours and nurture creation.Don't escape the future. Live it in the dirt beneath your feet.

God’s Future, Your Present… End times and us today - Rev Dr John Griffiths Part 1
Resurrection launches new creation, turning end-times talk into a blueprint for everyday stewardship. Pastor Ben Teefy sits down with Pentecostal scholar Rev Dr John Griffiths (Alphacrucis University College) to show how Jesus’ rising and Pentecost’s Spirit outpouring pull the whole cosmos—soil, seas and schedules into God’s restoration project. Caring for Earth becomes worship, because trashing the planet is like rejecting a personal gift from God . Paul’s image of a coming fire sifts our work, so calendars, wallets and web scrolling ought to build what lasts into eternity. Escape fantasy? No: this episode reframes eschatology as hope fuelled action, inviting you to live the future now, on your own street.

God’s Future, Your Present… End times and us today Ep4
“Eternal life” isn’t an after-death ticket but the life of the age to come—available right now. Ben Teefy, Bethany Thompson and Jason Aitchison trace the thread from Daniel 7‒12 to John 10:10, showing how Jesus’ resurrection already kicked off “the beginning of the end”. That future wholeness—justice, healing, shalom—becomes today’s playbook: cross the road like the Good Samaritan, spend your own coin on broken neighbours and leave love in your wake. Every act of mercy turns you into an air-con vent that channels the age to come into the now. Skip the date-setting hype and step into eternal life today.

God’s Future, Your Present… End times and us today Ep3

In this conversation, they show how Revelation’s pictures of light, justice and healed tears become our present-day playbook: if God will wipe every tear, then we start wiping tears now . Paul’s ethics make the same move—“new creation” people breathe future air to live differently in today’s world .Get ready for practical questions “What is my life orienting around?”An invitation to trade survival-mode faith for a life that “shines like stars” and leaves love in its wake . Hit play to learn how hope, Holy Spirit power and everyday acts of justice turn eschatology into Monday-morning mission.–– Love & Our Way Podcast | Series: God’s Future, Your Present – End Times & Us Today

Who Are the Outcast? - An Extended Meditation

Together with Ben Teefy, Benjamin Troup, and Jason Aitchison, we explore how Jesus' life and ministry challenged cultural norms by embracing the outcasts and those society deemed taboo.

What Is True Freedom? - An Extended Meditation
In this compelling episode of Love in Our Wake, hosts Jason Aitchison, Ben Teefey, and Benjamin Troup delve into the profound concept of freedom, exploring how it contrasts between cultural perceptions and Jesus’ radical example. They examine how modern society often defines freedom as unbridled self-expression and autonomy, while Jesus redefines it as sacrificial love and servanthood. Cultural vs. Christ-Centered Freedom: Modern culture equates freedom with self-centered autonomy, while Jesus models freedom as the ability to lay down rights and serve others. Freedom in Action: Jesus, as the image of the invisible God, uses His divine freedom not for personal gain, but to bring dignity, healing, and liberation to others, including the oppressed and marginalized. Idols of False Freedom: The discussion highlights how societal idols—money, power, and self-gratification—promise freedom but lead to bondage, contrasting sharply with the liberating discipleship of Jesus. A Call to Self-Reflection: Listeners are encouraged to examine how they use their freedom and whether it aligns with Christ’s example of self-emptying love. The episode closes by asking thought-provoking questions: How does Jesus’ use of freedom challenge us today? Are we leveraging our freedom to lift others up, or are we bound by cultural idols that distort true liberty?

How to be Truly Human - An extended meditation
In this thought-provoking episode of Love in Our Wake, hosts Jason Aitchison, Ben Teefey, and Benjamin Troup explore what it means to be fully human by reflecting on the teachings and life of Jesus Christ. Drawing from the poetic hymn in Colossians 1:15-20, they dive deep into theology, exploring Jesus as the true image of the invisible God and the model for humanity as God intended. The conversation touches on how Jesus’ temptations in the wilderness reflect the struggles of humanity, showing how He resisted self-serving shortcuts in favor of sacrificial love and obedience. By choosing to embody humility, self-emptying, and service, Jesus redefines success and humanity itself, challenging cultural norms of individualism and unbridled self-expression. Key takeaways include: Jesus as the Model for Humanity: He demonstrates what it means to live fully alive—embodying sacrificial love, humility, and obedience to God. The Role of Temptation: How Jesus’ resistance to Satan’s temptations highlights the importance of remaining faithful to God's mission despite enticing alternatives. Practical Application: Emulating Jesus requires reorienting our understanding of the “good life,” prioritizing service and discipleship over personal gratification. Listeners are encouraged to reflect on their definitions of humanity and align their lives with the example of Christ. The hosts also remind us of the importance of studying Jesus’ life to better understand how to live truly and fully human.
