Brother Jaken preached a sermon this week about how to hear God in the midst of a chaotic world.

Jaken heard several podcasts about New Year Resolutions from other shows today, and he shares what he has learned with Bethany. Follow along and see where this new year can take you!

Every year at our church we have a forum where we sit down and allow the youth to ask us any questions they may have. It can be as simple as "What's your favorite book of the Bible?" or as complicated as "How do you deal with the loss of a loved one?" (Spoiler alert: Both of these questions are tackled in this podcast.) This episode may sound a bit chaotic. It is an up close and personal encounter...

The New Year is upon us. Many will be looking to make changes. How do we make those changes stick? Listen in as we collaborate with the STAY Podcast to get to the bottom of the question.

It’s Christmas y’all, and that means it’s time for a Reality Speaks Christmas Special. Jaken and Bethany sit down for a Christmas discussion with input from the Orten Family Group Chat. We touch on Christmas music, movies, snow, and more. Grab your Santa hat, some hot chocolate (or a latte), and listen in to this Christmas themed episode!

Tonight we had a youth service at the church, and Jaken preached a sermon titled “Let it Go.” How do we break free from old ways of living and step into a new life? Listen to find out!

This weekend we had a youth service and Sister Bethany taught about why we need the Holy Ghost.

We are wrapping up season 3, so let's take a look back on where we have come from this past season. Plus Jaken gives some thoughts on innocence and the Christian responsibility. Finally we go through some stats of podcast growth.

This episode contains spoilers for Disney’s Encanto, The Book of Genesis, The Gospels, and Acts.

This is the big one folks. Without these two this podcast would not exist. Your hosts wouldn’t even exist! After almost 29 years of marriage (even longer than that if you count dating years), Pastor Daniel Orten and his beautiful bride, Sister Cheryl Orten, are here to tell us how this relationship stuff is done! All the big stuff and all the small stuff. It’s all here. Give it a listen!

In our third segment of our month of love we talk to Pastor Roy Marran and his lovely bride, Sister Tracy Marran. We talk everything from hick limo drivers, to broken unity candles, to open cabinets doors. And on the heavier end of things we cover how to overcome pornography, infertility, and communication. You do not want to miss this one. Also for better context of the incredible emotional weddi...

This week we continue our discussion of the real love that God intended between a man and his wife with my cousins, Brother Jason and Sister Britatani Baldwin. We discuss finding Jesus after marriage, parenting, and accepting a call to ministry.  Check out the Overcoming podcast with Sister Britatani's testimony here: Overcoming | Podcast on Spotify

This February we are talking about love. And not just love, but love the way God intended. Between a man and his wife. This episode we kick it off with our youngest couple of the month, your Reality Speaks cohosts, Texas and Bethany Young.

Join us in a discussion of the changes that have come in reaching this current generation.

In this tie in episode with Bro. Jaken’s solo podcast, Peculiar, we discuss church music. What makes it different from secular music? What is its purpose? And what is up with some of those cringy lyrics?

“New year, new me!” Goes the saying. How about new year, new podcast episode? That’s where we are today. Let’s discuss new year resolutions. Do they work? Do they matter? And what resolutions do we have on this podcast?
