A Better Answer with Kyle Ranson

Welcome to the New Year! Often there are many things we think of changing. But it's usually much more complicated to actually create change. Perhaps there's a tool or a mindset shift we need. What does God have for you in 2023? Let's talk about that.

People pleasing. It plagues all of us to some extent and distracts us from what really matters. Is there a way to change that? Let's talk about that.

Sometimes life seems cruel. Genuinely terrible things can happen to innocent people. We've all wondered about it and it's a hard question to even ask. Let's talk about that.

God has a will, right? We hear that all the time. But what does that mean? Is everything that happens God's will? Can we know God's will? Let's talk about that.

Life has a way of making us believe things about ourselves that aren't true which can leave us feeling a lack of confidence. How could we become truly confident? Let's talk about that.

We all get into misunderstandings with others. Is that a thing to avoid outright? Or is there something there that we're missing that could build better relationships? Let's talk about that.

We all get hurt by other people whether that's a minor inconvenience or a larger, much more painful experience. We also hear a lot about forgiveness, but it's a difficult gap to bridge. Yet, forgiveness could be the key to experiencing freedom and healing in our soul. Let's talk about that.

Life gets tough. When it does, it's easy to wonder if God will be there for you, understandably so. Let's talk about that.

Life is much richer surrounded by people who pick you up when you fall and cheer for you when you win; people who love you for you and not a mask you wear. God designed us to experience Him through other people. But how do you find those people? Let's talk about that. 

The Bible is a very well-known book. But is it trustworthy and how can we know? Let's talk about that.

In the spirit of last week's cutting out what's not good for us, how we do we alternatively actively choose what's good for us? Small, better choices for ourselves build better days and altogether a better life. Let's talk about that.

It's pretty common to have that one thing that we immediately turn to when we feel something we don't like, even subconsciously. Why do we do that? Can we choose something better? Let's talk about that.

The Church! We hear a lot about it. What is it? And what about the gaps that exist within it where we think it should be doing better? Let's talk about that.

Those parts in the Bible where it promises peace and joy and all the good things... how come there's a gap between those promises and what I experience on a daily basis?

Do you ever feel kinda crappy about yourself? Like you don't measure up or your decisions are never good enough? Yeah, we all do sometimes. But is it true? Where does your value actually come from and what are you worth?

What do you do when you feel like you don't belong and want to hide your true self from everyone? That's what we're digging into this week along with shame and how to start overcoming it. 

There are so many things to believe out in the world, and so many more OPPOSITE opinions! How can we determine whether something is really true or not?
