This Awkward Life

Hey, ya'll. If life or certain situations seem too big, don't worry you will grow into it. Whether it's a ministry, a job, a promotion, or a life event, given the grace of God, we can grow into it.   Husky  

Just my quick take on why you should take your fiance to a theme park before you marry. Feel free to take this as sound advice or a joke, either way, is fine with me.

As new converts, we all face challenges with family and friends. I hope this episode helps someone.   Visit our sponsor https://www.facebook.com/TheAdcockAgency

I had a great time catching up with Brandon. I met him back in 1998. Since then, He has been in various forms of Ministry and now is excited about his new Church in Starkville Mississippi.  I would also like to thank the sponsors for this episode. ASAP Mobile Phone Repair and The Adcock Agency. https://www.bcstark.org/

A few months ago I found a dime in a parking lot. Since then I have had several people finding dimes and I took the time to do an episode on my thoughts.  Many people feel that the dimes are a sign of communication from someone that has passed on, letting them know they are not alone. Some other interpretations of finding dimes are: – Someone or something is trying to get your attention .&nbs...

I sat down and talked with Roger Simpson. Bro Simpson has been teaching our new believers class at our church for the last 14 years. Bro Simpson is a studious man with a burden for souls. For further information or to request study materials, please contact Bro. Simpson at roger090649@yahoo.com

The way a person "Walks" through this life, greatly determines how he or she will be "Carried" out. I hope you enjoy this episode. 

Doors offer safety when locked. An open door gives us the feeling of being welcomed, invited, and accepted. There are a lot of spiritual references concerning doors and in the Church world, they are mentioned in much that we do. Oh, how we celebrate when those spiritual doors swing open. Situations we have prayed, sometimes years for, just seem to swing right on open and we walk right on through....

Have you ever seen an Artist ball up a piece of paper and throw it away with vigor and force? Or maybe a painter cut up a canvas or a potter swiftly throw clay off his wheel? If so, you are witnessing, what I call, "Artist Rage." It's when an artist can't get the medium, to perform the way it should.  I used to experience it all the time. I would throw sketches away,  stomp canvases, and...

“The Council Of The Dirt” started 10 years ago on a vacant lot, when three friends formed a lifelong bond on a red dirt patch of ground in central Mississippi. Matthew, Jaxon and Lyndon learned to ride four wheelers, shoot BB guns, and sword fight, all while growing up under the sheltering wing of a mighty God and a powerful church. After watching these young men come of age, I sat down with them...

One of the most faithful young people I know is Corey Cremeen. I have known him all his life and have watched him and been extremely proud of his faithfulness to the Kingdom of God. We recently sat down and talked about his startup suit company and who is better MJ or Kobe.  Instagram: @cremeen_22 https://www.facebook.com/corey.cremeen

Hey ya'll.  Simple question sparks my imagination. So, when John Barfield asked me, "Eric, is there anywhere you know of, that needs lights?" I had an immediate answer. I hope ya'll enjoy this episode.  https://www.facebook.com/mixcoachmatt https://www.newkadia.com/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1XfjhkL20I https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BfyEniC8fb4&t=87s

We don't necessarily need more leaders. Now when I say that, it may sound like I am against leadership but anyone that knows me, knows that is not true. We all need those that have that special ability to organize and push through with vision and determination. But I also believe that we are lacking in one area and that is the development of Watchmen.

We all stand on the shoulders of someone else that helped us along the way. Whether we knew them or not, everyone owes a debt of gratitude to someone else.

Peter didn't have to be the only one. Any of the disciples could have stepped out there and gone too. But they didn't

Ryan Brister wanted to be a soul winner above everything else. Several years ago, he started a Bible study in a tire shop and began preaching in local churches that were outside his Apostolic faith. During that time he was also youth leader at Pine Grove Pentecostal Church and head chaplain at a correctional facility. He felt the call to evangelize, but all the doors seemed to be shut. He continue...

Overcomers are often defined by the challenges in their lives that they conquer. My friend Daniel Sisterson is one of those people. He spent his formative years raised in a cult, and survived a devastating ATV accident at sixteen years old that left his left arm completely paralyzed. Through it all, he has maintained his love for God, and continues to develop his calling by hosting Bible studies b...

Hey ya'll! My first solo show in a couple months. Just me rambling in my studio closet today. I appreciate all the feedback and support. More interview this month. Stay Tuned.

I know of no job that constantly asks as much as that of a law enforcement officer. At any moment, these proud men and women could be asked to fulfill the role of not only an officer of the peace, but also the role of medic, lawyer, counselor, chaplain or defender. The challenges they face can be brutal, but also rewarding. I sat down and talked with officers Eric Quick and RJ Bell about their dai...

Samantha Thrash served six years in the Mississippi National Guard and even sat on a former Iraqi dictator’s throne; but her fondest “tour” was that of a teacher in the public school system. She recently resigned from teaching to stay at home with their newborn baby girl. Listen in as we talk about her experiences in the Army, in the public school system, and in the church.

About two years ago, our church was faced with a huge dilemma. Our longtime minister of music was retiring. Faced with the possibility of losing our choir, we looked inward and found a group of extremely talented and eager people, ready and willing to step in. One of those people was Lauren Morales. I got an opportunity to sit down with her and talk about that transition, the importance of mentors...

Cody Thrash is one of the most detailed young men I know. A former 10 year veteran of the Army, he sat down and talked to me about his experience in Iraq. He and his wife, Samatha, were deployed at the same time. They came home and started a family. Although things were fine at first, His Rock and Roll lifestyle, drinking and partying began to have an effect on their marriage. But isn't it just li...

Every time Jason and I sit down and talk Art, Songwriting, Comedy, Personal and Spiritual Growth, and Randomness, I always leave those conversations, wishing I had recorded them. So, when I began thinking about bringing guests on the podcast, Jason was the first person on my mind. I hope the listeners enjoy my talk with him and check out his social media links. He also has a new song he has writte...

If we are not careful we can reach the point where we think everything is about us. About our blessing and how God can best bless us. I hope I can learn that it isn't about me. When I have had enough, somebody else just now getting started.

It's amazing how fast a person can be labeled a god or devil. Sometimes it happens within a few hours or minutes. I hope you enjoy my latest episode.
