Josh Loves Jesus

Josh opens on the core lesson — God both rewards obedience and redeems failure, which means there's no excuse not to try. He traces his personal journey with the Jesus Walk and Jesus Crusade — spending money, planning, promoting, all things that don't come naturally to him — and how he's been leading his feelings with his faith rather than waiting to feel ready. He lands on the central...

Don't be reactive, be ready. Don't be fearful, be faithful. This is the way of the man of woman of God.

If you feel lost in life, discouraged by your circumstances, or like you can't find God—this deep dive into John 10 is for you. In this 50-minute Bible study, we move past "feel-good" optimism to the real truth of the Gospel. We explore why Jesus is the Good Shepherd and how He doesn't just make your life better—He is better than life itself. Whether you are a Christian man strug...

In this episode we study John chapter 10 on the key differences between The Good Shepherd, Jesus Christ and the Thief, the Devil. We examine the ancient and subtle strategies and tactics of the Devil to steal us from God and good from us. This study is filled with eternal principles and practical application. May the Lord speak to you by His Spirit through this Bible study.

God does not wait for us to be perfect in order to perfectly love and lead us as His sheep. This study digs into John 10, exploring the perfect character of God and how He faithfully cares for us. We will walk away with eternal truths and practical wisdom from the Word of God. I made this episode praying that God would use it to speak to you at the right time, in the way only He can. May He contin...

Body image, self worth, body dysmorphia, gluttony, and sexual immorality...the way we see these things would all be changed if we would see ourselves & bodies as God sees them. In this message we study God's word to find practical instructions and eternal principles to learning to seeing ourselves as God sees us.

In this episode I debrief a message I taught out of Exodus 19 where God's presence dwelled in a place described as "thick darkness". There are times that God we cannot find anywhere, even though know He is everywhere, and even if we can find the presence of God is the place, it is the place we are most afraid or unmotivated to go to. In this debrief I apply these truths to my life and I believe Go...

It's when you can't feel God, but you clearly feel everything else, that it is the easiest to want to give up. When you serve God but don't see any results, that's when the Enemy's voice is the loudest and God's voice seems silent. If you find yourself in this situation, I believe this Word is specifically for you. May the Lord speak through this simple video to your heart...

For over 10 years of my life I couldn't break free from the cycle of lust—going clean for a few days or even weeks, only to relapse deeper into it. I know firsthand just how discouraging, disorienting, and destructive this specific sin is, and how merciless the Devil is in breaking down those who fall into it. I praise the Lord that I've been walking free from falling deeply into lust for...

"Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses." - 1 Timothy 6:12 You’re not a failure because you failed, so don’t give up—keep showing up. For the longest time I fled from battles for fear of failing God or falling in them, but that is not what God wants. Because we are saved by His p...

This is for those who are hungry to study the Word of God on a deeper level and apply its wisdom and truth to their lives. In this episode we study how to grow in wisdom and discernment as followers of God so we can make decisions, plans, and live wisely. I pray God uses this in a way only He can to speak to you what you need to hear and prepare you for what He has prepared for you.

I struggled with lust for 13 years. I would be clean for a few days, even a few weeks, and then relapse and fall even deeper into it. It drained me of drive in life, and even more importantly distorted my view of God. I always felt unworthy and unable to follow Him. In this I share the truth that God used to open my eyes and set me free. Whether you personally struggle with lust or want to help th...

We won’t win every battle—but Jesus has already won the war. In this unique episode, Pastor Josh shares powerful, eternal principles from God’s Word on how to live a meaningful, successful, and victorious life that echoes into eternity. What makes this episode special? It’s recorded on the way to the gym and while working out—raw, real, and straight from God's Word. Socials: Instagram: @Joshterada...

Dealing with sin and distractions are always a focus for those who love Jesus, but why we do this and how we go about it are so important. In this episode, we study the example of Jesus and eternal principles in the book of Hebrews to apply to our mentality and how we live practically. Building the family, not a following.

Jesus died for us so that we might live for Him, but how do we do that? What does that look like as we battle sin, face struggles, and navigate the narrow road of salvation? Jesus didn't leave us to figure it out on our own or fend for ourselves, but has given us an example by going before us, and His Spirit that dwells inside us on this journey. In this study we unearth eternal and practical trut...

God does not only promise His followers many good things, but also that we will go through hard things for a good purpose. In this study, we examine Daniel chapter three and look at the story of how three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, were not willing to worship the idol of the king of the land and were willing to be thrown into the furnace. We will focus on how God does not waste pain and...

If you spend enough time with Christians, you will hear someone say, "God has big plans for you." But what does that actually mean? And what does He look for in those He uses for great things? In this study, we examine 1 Peter 4:10 as we discuss humility in depth and why it is the most underrated characteristic that God desires and develops in Christians. If you are serious about being used by God...

It's one thing to have the faith to start something, it's another to stay faithful with it. But what do we do when we are struggling to get going, or to get back up when we fall back? In this study, we dig into Zechariah 4, where God doesn't only instruct His people to get to work building His temple but also provides the instructions on how to do it. This is an incredibly practical st...

There is often much mystery and difficulty when it comes to finding God’s specific calling for our lives. Whether it’s about our purpose or plan in life, this is a topic that Christians often struggle to find clarity and confidence in. Thankfully, God has said a lot in His Word about this, giving us actionable direction and assurance that He is better at leading us than we are at following Him. In...

No matter what you know or believe, it doesn't make suffering any easier or less painful. Yet, God gives us powerful promises and truths to hold onto, so that though we may suffer, we Christians can suffer with the hope of eternal glory. God will never waste our suffering, but will work through it for our eternal good and His glory.  In this episode, we will study Romans 8 and unpack these spe...

There are many moments in this life when we will feel that we are not enough for what life and the Lord require of us. As we'll discover in this Bible study, God doesn't do this to torture us, but to test us so that we might find the answer in Jesus, not in ourselves. I hope God blesses you through this study of Matthew 14 as we unpack, by the Holy Spirit, how Jesus used five loaves of bre...

In this episode, we have our first guest join me on the podcast my long time friend Moses Vergara. We talk about his testimony with battling depression and how God provides us Biblical and practical tactics to fight the darkness. Hope this episode blesses you!
