Women, it's time to experience your full place in God's story! The reality is that the community of the Godhead has designed humanity in the image of God ... fashioned in both female and male. If we're going to bear the image of God well in the earth, it will be more accurately expressed in both genders. What's at stake? Dominion. We're commissioned as Vice-Regents under King Jesus -- reStoried to...

What if we could reclaim God’s design for sex ... and really experience what sex is meant to be? Grace and truth from Jesus empower us to live in harmony with Higher Design.

Is the world out-discipling the Church about sex? >> See the show notes page for this episode at JesusSmart.com Get the Jesus Smart eLetter and keep curre...

Do you wonder if following Jesus is more than being born again, attending Church, and going to heaven someday? “And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day …” (Genesis 3:8 NKJV). Jesus restores us to the Eden Dynamic. Our capacity to exercise dominion on Christ's behalf is connected to living in a "cool state" ... consistently relating to Jesus in the cool...

Take quantum steps of faith to shift the battlefield and your Life Story! >> Go to JesusSmart.com/godspeed to see a complete list of Godspeed tinysode...

There's a severe battle over defining what is real in our lives. Circumstances, challenges, and people issues make this claim: “This is reality for you. Get used to it!” But there is “real” and there is "really real." Jesus says, “I have a HIGHER REALITY which supersedes LOWER REALITY. Trust Me. Work with Me. You’re going to get free indeed and experience everything I have for you.”...

Work and life as worship, setting your Personal Narrative in the Big Kingdom Narrative, cultivating latent potential in your sphere of influence, discerning Satan who tries to corrupt your Life Story, redeemed to live a life of dominion (not just "go to heaven" someday), and launching out into the deep where the High Adventure is! Brian Sooy is President and Design Director of Aespire (aespir...

It's safe to say that most are living beneath their legal rights in Christ. But it's something we can progress in -- we can optimize our legal standing before the Judge of All! It's about justice. Recognize your identity and standing in Christ. Understand your advantages. And quest for them in faith and prayer as you stretch for your high calling! >> Go to JesusSmart.com/godspeed to see a co...

Jesus says that those who have a good and faithful heart will manifest KINGDOM REALITY -- 30, 60, and 100-fold (Parable of the Sower). Why not believe for a 100-fold return? Why not quest for it in faith? That's a 10,000% yield on the Word of the Kingdom in your life ... and in your sphere of influence! Dr. Louis F. Kayatin is a time-tested practitioner of the "Kingdom Craft." Let's accept the cha...

This is an Encore Episode (#006)! Can you believe this? Here's a Kingdom secret that few experience -- all things belong to you, as you belong to Christ. This is what the Apostle Paul wrote to the Church in Corinth. "All things belong to you, and you belong to Christ, and Christ belongs to God" (see 1 Corinthians 3 in the New Testament). It's as we truly value and belong to Christ, that all things...

Are there times when it feels impossible to forgive someone? Know this about Jesus -- his hardest teachings are the most rewarded! Deborah Porter never saw her father growing up. But as a young adult, she forgave him and a relationship was restored. A Kingdom secret is that forgiving others unleashes massive prayer power which moves mountains and changes things! See the show notes page for this ep...

Not too long ago, the Holy Spirit prompted me to get and stay in the "Rudder Zone." See James 3:4 in the New Testament -- James writes that the tongue steers our life like the rudder on a ship. Even in the face of opposing, circumstantial winds. Don't flinch in the face of difficulty. Don't budge, yielding to negative incidents. Stay consistent with your faith language ... and you will journey in...

Are you ready to transition into new "land" -- your Personal Promised Land? It's important for each of us to enter new spaces in life so that our Life Story fits into the big Jesus Story in a more fruitful way! Your "shout of faith" is key ... the silencing of negativity and uncertainty, your strong voice of praise, and even your Life Voice (the unique life message your offer). Get beyond your Jer...

On a recent morning, I was outside investing time with the Lord in the Word and prayer. I feel like the Holy Spirit gave me a fresh facet of insight about a popular verse - "Do not be conformed to this world (age may be a better translation), but be transformed by the renewing of your mind ..." (Romans 12:2). So I just did a flash recording on the spot. Here's the opportunity: we don't have to con...

"Discipleship" is the maturation process of becoming more like Jesus -- in both his character and competencies (the ventures he modeled). The Holy Spirit is the Ultimate Teacher to help us "learn Christ." Kingdom Clusters (specialized affinity groupings) are emerging to accelerate our advancement ... small is the new big. Listen to Part 1 of this conversation with Isaac & Silvia CLICK! >&gt...

All Kingdom life flows from the heart. Isaac and Silvia Rowe are pastors and business people. They value authentic relationships and deeper discipleship as Christ-Followers. Self awareness, accountability and trust, and advancing in faith are their quest -- for themselves and those they lead. It's more than church meetings and programs. Full-spectrum Christ-following is total life transformation....

Prayer is such massive potential! And our development in prayer is limitless. As we discover more of our standing before the Throne of All, all bets are off! The lid is lifted ... in our personal affairs and in the contribution that we bring to life. Developing our confidence in prayer is a key element of overcoming faith.

Craig Greatman -- pastor, Harley Davidson rider, Doctorate of Divinity candidate -- wonders why the Church is so shattered with fragmented fiefdoms. Are we adoring the icons of our own "Churchianity" cubbyholes? A miserly "meism" cannot experience the authentic Church that Christ is building.   CLICK! >> See the show notes page for this episode at JesusSmart.com Get the Jesus Smart eLet...

True faith counts it as so ... no matter what! "Reckoning" is an accounting term. "Kingdom Reckoning" draws a double line under what we are believing for. So we immerse ourselves in the Word. We pray. We speak. And we move in faith. No blinking - no flinching - no budging. Kingdom Accounting supersedes the natural plane and believes. Period.

After an 8-year faith odyssey, Ohio became the 6th state in the nation to pass and sign a heartbeat bill (April...

Jesus reframes our belief about resurrection life IN THE NOW -- just like he did with Martha when her brother died. We're designed in Christ to "taste the powers of the age to come" in our day (Hebrews 6:5). And that includes the resurrection life of Christ! Jesus said, "I am the resurrection and the life" ... it's a now statement. The truth is that the resurrection is already on since Christ was...

This is Godspeed! ... punchy, bite-sized "tinysodes" from Jesus Smart. This is episode #66. We have between 12,000 and 60,000 thoughts run through our mind each day. When our thoughts start to blend with strong emotions, our brain is deeply impacted -- for the good or for the bad. Our physical brain actually changes according to how we think. New neural pathways are created. It's important that we...

With our fast-paced lifestyles and hyper-connectivity to our smart phones in the Digital Age, are we missing out on real life? We’re pushing, pushing, pushing to get to a next better moment and fail to notice and appreciate the present one. But the abundant life that Jesus offers is experienced in the present moments. Dr. Charles Stone is an experienced pastor who has advanced degrees in ministry...
