The On God Podcast

Well...for starters...we lost about 5 minutes of audio at the end of the recording...so the ending may seem a little abrupt. I guess we're living up to the idea of "It's Simply Difficult", LOL! Unintentionally of course. To be honest...this last episode felt rushed... But... That's life at times, isn't it? Lots of hurry and go, go, go and frankly, at times, you've jus...

Life can feel simply difficult at times. Plain and "simple" . No pun intended, LOL. Here's the thing... The way we think about ourselves and the way we see ourselves in HUGE to our turnaround. We MUST begin to see ourselves the way God sees us. This is simple, yet can feel very difficult. Not impossible...just difficult. I f you can relate...keep your head up. The love of the Father...

Life is tough. So, the Christian must be tougher. How do we gain strength to make it through life's high's and low's? Lucy and I do our best to gracefully tackle this topic in a part 2 of high's and low's. We ask again... How much grace are you walking in today? God's got you friends! We're praying for you!-Connect with us! Instagram/TikTok/Facebook: @contextforcultureA...

Life comes with many high's & low's. It's how we navigate them that matters. Life is always...well.......lifing. We stay reminded of that frequently at Reimagine Church. You and I need grace...and bucket loads of it. How much grace are you walking in today? You deserve it...grace. More importantly...God's got grace for you! Let's talk about it!--Connect with us! TikTok/Face...

#culture #podcasting #godsgrace In part 2 of "You Are Worthy", Lucy and I continue our conversations about grace. Grace truly is a MASSIVE topic. We could honestly do an entire season just on grace. How much grace are you walking in today? God's grace applied to you...Grace for yourself... Do you have enough? Are you running on empty? Trust God...He thinks you are worth it! All His t...

#culture #grace #worthy Grace. It's wonderful. The best part... It's free. Not, that it didn't cost anything however...it did. Jesus gave His life so that WE could be saved by grace through faith in Him. 8 God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. 9 Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast abo...

#culture #podcast #authentic In today's episode, Lucy and I continue our conversation about being real. We've covered some important topics (in part 1) about church culture such as prayer and communion...but something that we can't overlook is the Christian's need to be real, authentic and genuine. The culture of community within the church is easily connected to our capacity to be real. Live holy...

#honor #culture #influencer Does life for you feel messy right now, but still, things seem to be working anyhow? That's because God has you right where you need to be. Don't fret! There is often a battle before the blessing! Today, as we continue to unpack the culture of the Church, we talk a bit about communion and prayer...among some other things... What's most important though as we endeavor in...

#church #culture #influencer Here we are in season 3 of The On God Podcast! In this season we are going to make an attempt to bring context to the culture of the Church. Honestly, there are probably A LOT of directions we could go on this topic. God knows...so we trust that He will lead us! Lucy and I are excited to be back at it again...piecing together something that we hope is helping. That's a...

#kingdomculture #fruitful #finale The christian continually faces the idea of "fruitfulness". Are we bearing fruit as followers of Christ? Are our thoughts fruitful? Are our ways fruitful? Are the things we allow our eyes and our ears to partake of...fruitful? Are our decisions always fruitful? Are many of the relationships we are in or that we may be endeavoring into...fruitful? The idea of fruit...

#risk #faith #clash Are you a risk taker or a faith walker? Does "walking by faith" or "walking in faith", involve risk? Is there a risk factor to "operating in faith"? We would sure love to hear your thoughts on this? Here are a few things to consider... Risk is always 50/50. It's a bet. You are either going to win or lose. You are either going to get what you're going after, or, you are going to...

#faith #journey #culture It can feel easy for the Christian and maybe even for the non-believer at times as well, to have or express a belief that God has supreme powers or abilities. But can we have faith simply for the journey we are on in life? Are faith in God and faith for our daily lives the same thing? It's almost like we're asking, as big and awesome as God is, will He and does He interact...

#faithjourney #healing #priority The danger we all face, just like ancient Israel did…is that what was once A PRIORITY for us, becomes shaken and rattled for a season…destroyed even (for the Jews it was captivity and destruction of the 1st Temple by the Babylonians - for you and I it’s usually the shaking and rattling of our faith), the question becomes, how quick are we going to return to the pri...

#cultureofchrist #faithjourney #greatfaith How do you wrestle with the concept of faith as a follower of Jesus? When God doesn't seem to move according to our "faith" at times...when we are praying and believing, is it, "lack of faith" on our part that is the cause...or, is there something grander at work? Is God "required to act", according to our requests, every time...when a believer prays with...

#cultureofchrist #healing #imperfections Ahhh... well, the title speaks for itself. We are not perfect. Let the truth bomb sink in, lol. Being Christian does not make you..."perfect". For those of us who have chosen to follow Jesus, we are still prone to sickness, sin and life, lifing at us. There's not some special immunity that a believer has to life and the imperfections thereof. Trust me, it w...

#culture #kingdomofgod #contextlogic It's fall in Upstate, NY. It's the favorite time of year for a lot of native central New Yorkers. We were supposed to have Episode 1 of Season 2 out in September 2024. That didn't happen (obviously). You will likely notice the video is a little glitchy as well (just wait until you see what happens in Episode 2's recording, LOL). Needless to say...it was a rough...

#money #budget #genz We love to have the money talk. We actually planned on talking about money and finances when we were in the planning stages of this podcast. Why is talking about money and finances so important? Well, because in the end, it's all money. Whether you have some or you don't. And whether you can create and live by a budget or you don't. I was taught once that if you fa...

#culture #podcast #influencer Why do Christians believe that the Christian life and relationship with Jesus is good for everyone? That's a million dollar question in and of itself. Honestly, the best answer we could give is that we have experienced Jesus proving Himself to us. God has proved Himself to us both on a personal level in each of our lives uniquely and we see the evidence of Him all...

#culture #podcast #influencer I once tried boiled okra when I was a kid. I hated it, LOL. It was slimy and gross. As a kid, I grew up in the State of Florida, so as a southerner, at the time I didn't know, that was NOT the way to prepare okra. Later in time as a kid, I was eating at a buffet and I saw what looked like, fried okra on the buffet. I was intrigued for sure. So, I tried it. My life...

#culture #podcast #influencer It's SO easy to point out problems. Almost anywhere you go today, you can find a "problem". Where are the modern day problem solvers? Where are the company of people who are endeavoring into creating solutions? And NO, we're not talking about those who are actually creating more problems through protesting (non-peaceful) and inciting riots and lootin...

#podcast #culture #influencer What are you known by? What makes people remember you? What stands out? Let me ask this way... Are you known more by the good things you've done in life, good choices you've made...you're accomplishments and such... OR...do people remember you by mistakes you've made...or outrageous events that have occurred or choices you've made in your life that...

#culture #influencer #podcast How much does it mean to you, to get your own way? Is that something that's important to you? It's human nature perhaps for most people to like things done a certain way. If getting your own way however, was to mean that someone else gets hurt in the process (whether physically, mentally or emotionally), would you still advocate your stance to get your way? He...

#podcast #culture #influencer We don't always make the best choices in life. People are prone to error. The question however is, what are we learning from bad choices made in our own lives? Do bad choices made in life have you feeling like you're in a dark place? If so...we get you... We've been there. So, how do we get out from the hold that some bad choices have us in? We believe exe...

#culture #wisdom #bible Why would you choose to listen to us? After all, we're just 2 over 40 white folks from Upstate New York. What do we possibly have to say that could bring any sort of valuable context to the culture of today? For starters, we definitely don't claim to know it all. What we do have going for us however, is a lot of experience at living and our many years of walking wit...
