Dying to Live Podcast

We are living in a confusing time for men. On one side, men are told to step back, soften, and suppress strength. On the other side, when they step forward, they are accused of being controlling or toxic. Many men feel caught between emasculation and accusation. But the real question is not: “What does society say a man should be?” The real question is: “What kind of man does God call a man to be?...

The church has always been called to care for the poor. From the Old Testament to the early church, Scripture makes it clear that compassion for those in need is not optional—it is part of faithful Christian living. We are called to show mercy, to give generously, and to help those who are suffering. But the church also has a unique mission. It is not simply a social agency or a government program...

In this episode Chantelle Searle and Kim Muller talk about real biblical hospitality. What is it? Where do we begin? And is it for everyone? When we read the Bible, hospitality is not an optional extra—it is part of normal Christian life. In Romans 12, we are told to practice hospitality, and in 1 Peter 4, to offer hospitality without grumbling. Hospitality flows from the gospel, because Christ fi...

Today’s episode is a powerful and deeply moving story of transformation. Our guest today is Zaib, a young woman who grew up in a very strict Muslim family. From an early age, her life was shaped by fear, rules, and the weight of religious expectations. But God had a different story written for her life. In this episode, Zaib courageously shares her journey — a journey from fear to freedom. She tel...

This is Part Two of our series on leadership and biblical authority, where we turn our attention to how we follow. In Part One, we explored biblical authority — leadership that is stewarded, not owned, and authority that builds people rather than controlling them. But leadership is only half of the picture. Scripture also speaks about how believers respond to leadership, and what healthy, godly su...

In this episode, we’re looking at biblical authority — what it is, how it’s meant to function, and how leaders can exercise it without slipping into control. Scripture reminds us in Romans 13 that all authority ultimately comes from God. That means leadership authority is not something we own — it’s something we steward. It is delegated, and it is accountable. From the beginning, authority was tie...

In a world that is increasingly diverse, the church often finds itself navigating the complexities of culture, identity, and belonging. But our goal is not simply to build culturally diverse churches. Diversity alone is not the destination. This podcast explores a deeper pursuit — the formation of a Christ culture. We believe the church is called to be a community shaped first and foremost by Jesu...

A new year brings fresh plans and new possibilities. But what if the year behind you was painful? What if disappointment or loss has made trusting God for the future feel incredibly hard? How do we exercise faith when our confidence has been shaken? How do we plan wisely for a new year while still living surrendered to God? Is there a way to hold vision in one hand and trust in the other? And what...

What happens when leaders fall? Not just quietly—but publicly, painfully, and in ways that ripple through families, churches, and entire movements. We’ve seen it again and again in the news: moral failure, abuse of power, silence, denial… and the fallout that follows when issues aren’t dealt with biblically.  But here’s the harder question—at what point does ignoring failure become endorsement? An...

Every Janu-WORRY (as some people refer to it) we’re told it’s time for a reset. New year, new goals, new habits, new us. But spiritually, many of us step into the new year carrying the same questions, the same struggles, the same disappointments—and the same old selves. We pray, we hope, we try again, yet sometimes nothing feels new at all.  So what does God actually expect of us? Is the new year...

What is discipleship, really? It’s not a program or a checklist—it’s a relationship. Discipleship is learning to follow Jesus and inviting others to walk with Him too. It happens through proximity, conversation, and modeling a life shaped by Christ. Jesus didn’t just teach truth—He lived it in front of people. He invited others into His life, showed them what obedience looked like, and sent them o...

Deliverance is a word that often brings confusion, curiosity, or even fear. For some, it’s associated with dramatic encounters and intense moments. For others, it raises honest questions they’ve never felt free to ask. Today, we want to slow down and bring clarity. In this episode, we’re de-mystifying deliverance. What is deliverance? What are demons? Can a believer have a demon? And what’s the di...

Children change everything—our schedules, our priorities, and often, our faith. As parents, we wrestle with big questions. Should family life revolve around our children—their needs, their future, their success? Are we meant to chase sport, achievement, and endless activities in the hope of giving them every advantage? But beneath that lies something deeper. Where do our children fit in the Kingdo...

What does it really mean to live by faith? So often, especially in ministry circles, living by faith is reduced to finances—raising support, trusting God for provision, or serving without a salary. And while money can certainly be part of the story, it’s far from the whole picture. Living by faith is bigger than a bank account. It’s about trusting God with every area of our lives—our decisions, ou...

 As believers, we live in a world overflowing with entertainment—movies, shows, music, and media that constantly compete for our attention. Some of it inspires us. Some of it challenges us. And some of it quietly pulls us away from God and who He is calling us to be. Here, we’re asking the hard but necessary questions: What should we be watching—and what should we walk away from? Where do we draw...

Christmas is more than lights, music, and traditions—it’s a season when hearts are softer and conversations about faith feel more natural. It’s often the one time of year when people who don’t follow Jesus are more open to asking why Christmas is celebrated at all. For many of us, this includes our own unsaved family members—those we love deeply but often find it difficult to share our faith with....

Is there really going to be a rapture of the Church? Does the Bible actually teach it—or is it a modern invention? And if the word “rapture” isn’t even found in Scripture, why do so many Christians believe in it? Over the years, predictions have come and gone—like claims that Jesus would return on specific dates, including September 23rd—leaving many believers confused, skeptical, or even discoura...

Intercession is one of the most powerful yet often overlooked callings in a believer’s life. It goes beyond personal prayer—intercession shifts our focus from ourselves to standing before God on behalf of others. It is spiritual advocacy, partnership with Heaven, and a willingness to carry someone else’s burden in prayer. Scripture gives us a clear picture in Daniel, a man who confessed the sins o...

In Scripture, spiritual warfare isn’t about fear or chasing the supernatural — it’s the reality that unseen spiritual forces influence our world. But believers aren’t left defenseless. God gives us spiritual authority, not to control spiritual beings, but to stand firm, resist evil, and live aligned with His purpose. That authority has boundaries. We’re called to exercise it within the areas God h...

In this episode we step back in time to better understand our faith today and explore the rich and often overlooked story of church history—why it matters, how it shapes what we believe, and why knowing our roots is essential for guarding truth. Throughout the centuries, the church has wrestled with questions, challenges, and controversies. These moments didn’t just fill textbooks—they forged the...

Today we’re talking about a powerful but often misunderstood spiritual gift—the gift of discerning of spirits. This God-given insight helps us recognize what is from the Holy Spirit, what’s simply human, and what may be influenced by the enemy.  When used well, it brings clarity, protection, and wisdom to the church. But it’s important to distinguish true discernment from being critical or suspici...

Today, we’re stepping into one of the most discussed—and sometimes divisive—topics in the church: Are the gifts of the Holy Spirit still for today, or did they cease when ‘the perfect came’? Some say the miraculous gifts—prophecy, tongues, healing—were only for the apostolic age. Others believe the same power that filled the early church is still available to believers right now. In this episode,...

Christian Nationalism — it’s a phrase that stirs up a lot of heat—and not always a lot of light. Some say believers should reclaim political power to enforce biblical values. Others warn it confuses God’s Kingdom with the kingdoms of this world.  So where should the Church stand? Should we be shaping laws or shaping hearts? Can we really legislate Christian beliefs for those who don’t know Christ?...

Is healing for everyone, always? If God can heal — why doesn’t He heal everyone we pray for? And what does the Bible really say about healing, faith, and suffering? For some, healing brings hope. For others, it brings confusion, doubt, and even disappointment. We read stories of miracles in Scripture, and we hear testimonies of healing today — yet sometimes, despite sincere prayer and deep faith,...

Change. It touches every one of us. Sometimes we choose it — like a new job, a move, or a personal goal — and other times it crashes into our lives uninvited — loss, uncertainty, or unexpected disruptions. But one thing is certain: change is not optional — it’s inevitable. The real question is how we navigate it. In today’s episode, we’re going to explore what change really is, why it’s often unco...
