The book of James tells us that if we, as followers of Jesus, lack wisdom that we should ask Him for it and that He will give it generously and He won’t be disappointed that we asked. In this episode, we talk about what wisdom is and what it isn’t. We also talk about the effects of utilizing wisdom as well as the reality of not using wisdom.

Today we’re talking about the topic of freedom. Is there a difference between God’s idea of freedom and our own? What is the responsibility of freedom? What does freedom mean for followers of Jesus? We take some interesting twists and turns along the way and as always, we hope you enjoy the conversation.

Today’s topic is no small undertaking. We’re talking about God Himself–the Holy Spirit. There can sometimes be some elusive or mysterious ideas surrounding this Divine member of the Holy Trinity and while we are no experts or Theologians, we do know Him personally. We’ll share some of the Holy Spirit’s characteristics and His role in our lives according to Scripture as well as debunk some thoughts that might get mixed in within conversations on this subject. We hope you enjoy the episode!

Anger is one of the basic emotions that we all have. It is a natural feeling and we know that even God gets angry so does anger sometimes get a bad wrap as being wrong or inherently destructive? In today’s episode, we ask the questions, “Is anger bad?” “Why do we get angry?” and “What is the difference between God’s anger and human anger?” We also talk through where the Bible tells us to “Be angry and not sin.” We hope you enjoy the conversation!

Today, we’re talking about maturity: what it is, what it isn’t, why it’s important, when the process is complete. The Bible consistently reminds us that we are to grow up and mature into strong, solid Believers, but it also says that we should remain childlike in our faith. What does this tell us about what maturity looks like in the Kingdom of God? We hope you enjoy our conversation as we cover this topic from various perspectives and angles.

This week, we talk about the good that comes from being a resilient person and how to gain that grit that helps the tough get going when the going gets tough. On the other hand, we also talk about when resiliency can actually be to our detriment and cause us undue harm on our path towards success. We hope you enjoy today’s episode!

Choice is a powerful thing and a gift that we’ve been given by our Creator. We know that along with the agency to choose for ourselves comes a series of effects or consequences that can lead our lives in any number of directions–good, bad, and anywhere in between. In this episode, we talk about what having the power of choice means for us, how it affects others, and the responsibility that it carries.

Every person has an internal personal codebook of standards, ethics, preference, and perspective. Each codebook is uniquely shaped by our individual life experience and makeup and most often, we don’t even realize we have one. When it comes to relationships, we usually naturally assume that other people have the same codebook as we do…but they never do. This can easily create relational conflict and discomfort and cause breaks in connection big and small. In this episode, we’re explaining personal codebooks, how to recognize them, and how to navigate them with the people closest to us with the goal of optimal relational health.

Jesus talks to His followers a ton about the topic of forgiveness. His final words on earth included forgiveness and He even includes it as part of His model prayer. Clearly, this topic is of big importance to Him and therefore, it’s probably one we should take some time to consider in our own lives. In this episode, we talk about what forgiveness is and what it isn’t, some roadmap from Scripture to walk us through the steps of forgiveness, and we discuss some other aspects, benefits, and dynamics of following the way of Jesus in this valuable area of the Gospel.

The Bible tells us to seek first the Kingdom of God, but this is language that we aren’t really familiar with in our modern day lives. How do you seek a kingdom? What is the kingdom of God? How does this work? In this episode, we’re talking about what it can look like for us to seek Him first and how this can present practically in our everyday lives.

“Calling” can be a popular word in the American church as we individually work to discover our important role in the body of Christ and in the world. In this episode, we talk to demystify and depressurize the topic of personal purpose and calling. A listener asks if there is ever a time when you can miss your calling in terms of timing and we speak to our thoughts on this as well as what to do if you feel like it might be too late.

Doubt can be a scary concept for a lot of people. What do you do when you start to question what you used to believe or doubt the things you were taught were true? In this episode, we talk about it: doubt, uncertainty, questioning and how to approach these things with open hands and to use them as healthy tools to learn and grow instead of swinging the pendulum to the extreme in either direction. We hope you enjoy our conversation and if this one resonates with you, we’d love to hear from you at the email address below.

We all came from a family of some kind and that origin story may be happy, sad, good, bad, or anything in between. In today’s episode, we touch on how our early years shape us and the choices we have as we grow and move away from those experiences and create lives and families of our own.
