Churchboy Confessions with Emmanuel Iheke

My fear of failure was actually a fear of embarrassment. Have you ever been embarrassed even though no one else was in the room? What does the Bible say about embarrassment and how we can carry on past it? We need to know this because - let me tell you - that embarrassment makes me want to quit sometimes.   You can support this ministry and purchase a hoodie here: https://uarelics.com/product/reli...

When God places us on a seat at the table, we can expect there to be people (or even our own thoughts) that try to convince us we don't belong there. However, when God places us on a seat, we need to hold onto that seat until He - and only Him - tells us to get up. That's that.   Read: 1 Samuel 17:28-37

It's not every time a storm comes that our main prayer point should be for God to deliver us out of the mayhem. Sometimes the storm needs to run its course. Times like these are when we need to know what it means to endure.

At first, the idea of turning 23 only left me with panic and fear of the future. So many of us are currently in positions we never saw ourselves being in? What do we do with all of these built-up emotions and uncertainty for the future?  (I think this is an episode that could really change a life.) Read: Isaiah 41

Social media. A world of endless content - a wonderful platform to share the gospel. However, in the same way it has become a tool of the enemy to spread false doctrine and feed our addiction to attention. It's time to go a bit deeper and call out the dangers of these apps, and figure out what we each can do better as individuals.

Mom asked me what I was going to do after graduation....that sucked. So now how do I get rid of the anxiety that question just placed on me? Maybe I have to use to power of my Imagination...

Christian Influencer, Natalia Casiano, is invited to the podcast to have a very touching conversation about her struggle with homosexuality, her story of coming to know Christ, and the role that a loving Christian community played throughout the entire journey. 

One thing 2020 showed us all is that this world is truly unpredictable. After what was such a hard year for many of us, should we even try to expect big things or anything good to happen this year? If you're having trouble deciding on whether to be optimistic or skeptical about this new year, please listen.   Read: Luke 5:1-11

On this episode Emmanuel speaks with Christian Influencer, Delon Lawrence, to talk about the importance of knowing the character of God and how it is the foundation of our faith/trust in Him. The devil has been working hard to misconstrue our image of God since he first fell away. Now it's time we uncover the tactics of the enemy.   Follow Delon on instagram: @delonlawrence Delon's tiktok: d.wlawr...

This week Emmanuel opens up about his past struggle with sexual sin and how the Holy Spirit has helped uncover the lies of the enemy that kept him in "the cycle". We pray this episode holds power to help free you from any lustful struggle you are facing. One very important thing to note - it is possible to beat it.

Sometimes we are the obstacles between ourselves and a healthy relationship with God. When we don't forgive and we choose to hold on to what God wants us to let go of, we separate ourselves from Him and even hinder our own growth and healing processes. This week Emmanuel welcomes Leo Sanchez, a brother in the Lord and fellow tiktoker, to discuss his journey of coming to know Christ.

Feeling ugly and body dysmorphia are things many of us - if not all of us - have experienced in life. It's about time we realize that our looks are not indicative of our worth. Literally - Jesus didn't ask about the size of your forehead before He decided to die for you...

"If your vision of success is not related to the tasks God has put you on this planet to fulfill, then it is not success, it is a distraction." Enjoy this word, and send it to someone who you know needs to hear it.

#Askchurchboy Question: How does pride cloud our understanding of God's character and His fullness?; Comparison truly is the thief of joy, and today Emmanuel explains why he calls it the "never-ending cycle of self-inflicted, mental, torment."

Rejection is something we all hate to experience. We fear it because it makes us feel like we are not enough or that something is wrong with us. However, the life of Jesus is an example of someone who remained the Son of God, even when the world rejected Him. In this episode I cover why rejection is nothing to fear, and has no power while you are walking in God's path.

Jesus dying for us means more than our sins being washed away. His death gave us access to a relationship with the Father, in which we have freedom, identity and purpose. In this episode I talk about how since we've accepted Jesus into our lives, we then no longer have to allow sin, failure and comparison to define us.  Note: These past couple of weeks I've been mourning the passing away of a love...

For the people who have a hard time with their self image. Read: 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 & Matthew 4:1-11

2020 has been a year filled with many emotions - a prominent one has been anger, as there has been much to be angry about. So what does the Bible say about anger management? Cuz we can all use the advice right now... This episode is for the folks that are always mad all the time.

This episode is for those who may have a problem with complaining and murmuring too much. The message highlight a man named Caleb, who was able to acquire God's promise because of his "different spirit." Sometimes the spirit we operate with is the deciding factor of whether we enter God's promise or not. 

First, prayer was always that boring, painstaking thing I had to do when I was a kid. Then it became the thing I only did when I was scared about the future. I've witnessed a lot of growth, and now prayer has truly become a peace-evoking action for me - here's how.

Why is it easy for us to talk about God but hard for us to mention the name of Jesus? Jesus has been omitted from our speech, our TV shows, even some of our prayers. Do we even remember why Jesus is important?

We all fear being the version of ourselves we visualize at rock bottom. It's a shameful depiction. And our fear of that vision becoming reality sometimes hinders us from saying "yes" to God. This is a problem. 

There are 2 types of people in this world: the afraid and the aggressor. Are you the one that shrinks back in fear or the one that's confident enough take the first step? What makes the aggressor so confident anyway?

What's the prize? And is the prize worthy of being your prize? Does your vision of the perfect life do anything to advance the Kingdom of God? If it doesn't, then is there a point to it?

I've been running God's company for 2 years now and the #1 lesson I've had to endure revolves around what it means to "walk by faith and not by sight." A simple saying - but very difficult to act on. In this episode I breakdown the importance of living life with your eyes closed. #DTDOYY20
