Today I chat with a former pastor who has finally found the freedom of living with Jesus that he knew existed, but  never found it in the pulpit

Are we to fear God or live in his perfect love? “Yes.”  Tune in as we explore the balance!

Today is Part 2 of our recap of Colossians chapter 1. We’ll start with these two questions: Why did our Heavenly Father create creation … and with free will?  Could Jesus be just the best, greatest, most wonderful human ever? Tune in for these and more!

Colossians chapter 1 is chocked full of rich truths. Today we mine out a few of those treasures that can both challenge, guide and motivate us.

Do you think of God, of Jesus, as encouragers? And … do you consider yourself to be an encourager? Is an encourager someone who naturally unites? Let’s answer these questions as we explore Colossians 2:1-5.

Have you ever felt burned out? How many athletes, performers, politicians – and just about anyone – burn out and flame out? Perhaps they have not yet learned to combine their efforts with the power of the Holy Spirit.

As followers of Jesus, can we rejoice in our suffering – actually rejoice ? I do not see how, but Jesus as well as Paul, Peter and James think so. How to? Tune in!

When you get up in the morning, what clothes do you put on to address the day and all the attacks that Satan will throw at you? In this episode, our special guest, Chris, and I dig through what Paul challenged all believers to put on when standing up to Satan's attacks on you and your walk with Christ Jesus.

In Colossians 1:21-22 we are told that when we are born again God sees us as “holy in his sight, without blemish and free from accusation.” Can that really be true?  Holy and blameless???

Who did Jesus appear to, how many, and what was Jesus’ message?

Did you know Jesus put his betrayer, Judas, in the Guest of Honor seat, and Peter in the Dunce seat? What was he – deliberately - teaching them and us by his carefully planned seating arrangements?

Could Jesus be just the best, greatest, most wonderful human ever – and not necessarily fully God? What does it matter or even mean to you if he as fully God and fully man? Is that even possible?

Throughout the New Testament, we see that Jesus was not just the Son of God, but all creation was by him, for him, and through him. What does this mean to you, and the way you live your day-to-day life?

The Holy Spirit, through Paul, says we have to be rescued from the “dominion of darkness.” Do you think you need to be rescued, or do you just need a little “polishing up?”  

In Paul’s letter to the Colossians, he prays that “God will fill them with the knowledge of his will.”  Does this mean we can know God’s will??  Yes … and no. Stay tuned to learn the difference! 

The Apostle Paul says this as he starts the letter of Colossians: “ … the faith and love that spring from the hope stored up for you in heaven ….”   What if your hope – your confident expectation – was so strong that it served as a springboard from which your faith and your love bounced … catapulted … forward?

In this episode, we continue our series on Men's Mindfulness.  We are in the 721 Ministries studio hosting our episode, and with us is Brian Kadien who host The Blind Samurai podcast.  We are focusing on relationships... and in particular, relationships with men and the struggle men face in building and maintaining relationships with other men.  Join us!

Do you know Jesus? Not about him, but know him? I do, and so can you. This is not some special relationship Jesus reserves for the “Elite few Christians.” No, it is for every follower of Jesus – and that includes you! And with this comes a knowledge of his will. Don’t believe that you can know God’s will.  Stay tuned!

What if I said that if you thought of God as your Heavenly Father and Jesus as your best friend it would change everything about your life? It’s true – so tune in to find out why?

As you move through each day, perhaps just “mowing the lawn,” as CS Lewis observes, do you not sense deep inside there has to be more to life than just keeping the lawn – your life - looking nice?

“If you want things to be different, you have to do things differently.” Today we continue taking a Spiritual Inventory so we can see what or where we want to do things differently, so we can journey deeper into Jesus’ Kingdom.

Don’t you agree that from time to time we would be well-served to take a look at where we are going in life? Perhaps a personal “inventory” of sorts? Today we do just that, but we take a spiritual inventory, to see where we are and are not living the A+ Life to the Full Jesus wants for us.

As we start a new year I believe our goal should be “To get into the 5th gear.” What is this “5th Gear” and what would this look like? It looks like “a calm, relaxed pace which should be characteristic of a child of God.”  But how to? Stay tuned!

In this episode, we have Brian Kadien from The Blind Samarai Podcast as our special guest.  We cover both accounts of the Christmas story...one from the Gospel of Matthew and the other from the Gospel of Luke.

When Jesus finished his Sermon on the Mount, the people were wowed and exclaimed, “This Jesus teaches with an authority we have not heard before!” What was it about the way Jesus taught and talked that was so vastly different from all those rabbis around him? Do you have anyone in your life whom you consider to teach or preach with authority?  Today we ask and answer these and several other questi...
