While Jesus promises to provide an abundant life, that doesn't mean it will be easy. On this episode Pastor & Author Mike Tatlock walks through how a compelling faith in a compromising culture will bring inner peace while being a bold witness. 

Suffering is part of living in a broken and fallen world. But what can we learn from a cancer diagnosis, or from the hurt caused by other people, or from the sudden death of a loved one? On this episode we talk with Pastor Joel Dombrow about what he learned when cancer entered his story and how we can all learn from suffering.

There have been several documented "Revivals" in  American history, from the Great Awakening in the 1700s to the Azusa Street Revival in the early 1900s. But, are we in a new kind of revival today amongst Generation Z? Dan Allen is with CRU and his insight into what's happening on college campuses will give you hope for the next generation.

Did Jesus really die? And if He did, what's the proof that Jesus rose from the dead? A lot of people were crucified by the Romans, what makes Jesus' crucifiction different? We tackle these questions (and more) on this episode.

Nearly 1 in 4 Americans struggle with mental health issues every year. In this episode we talk with a Miriam who kept it together on the outisdde, but inside she hit a point where life didn't seem worth living. Her story, and her victory over depression (which remains an ongoing issue), will encourage both those who struggle and those who watch a loved one struggle with mental health. 

An accident leaves a loved one paralyzed. A flash flood rages through a Christian camp and children are swept away in the middle of the night. A two year old drowns in the family pool. In situations like that it's easy to ask God why He didn't stop it. On this episode we talk with a mom who had the unthinkable happen, and how she got her answer to the "Why" question.

If you've heard someone say "God won't give you more than you can handle" this episode is for you. Through the testimony of Nelson, we learn what 1st Corinthians 10:13 actually says and means.

With over 100 references in scripture to God never leaving you, why does it sometimes seem like He's not there, and your prayers seem to go nowhere?

Because we don't use words and phrases like "Sanctification" and "Washed in the Blood" in everyday conversations, we might be too quick to discard them as irrelevant to today. On this episode we first ask everyday people what they think words like that mean, and then we discover what they actually mean.

You pray and nothing changes. Is God not listening? Why does he sometimes seem silent when we pray? On this episode Kim Wier shares insights into the fact that God holds onto our prayers even when we tend to give up.

A former New Age minister shares her story of when she used to believe there were many roads to God. Plus, insights from Tim Keller, and how to respond when someone says Jesus is too exclusive.
