Keep It 100 with Sean & Christa Smith

Vulnerability is our Superpower...In our culture today, vulnerability and authenticity are regarded as VALUED attributes. I think they are considered such because they are rarely found. Being vulnerable is both freeing and terrifying. Freeing in that you no longer carry the emotions of whatever is going on by yourself, but terrifying because it’s possible that whoever you share those emotions with...

How many people say they believe but then hide their faith from certain areas of, people in, or times during their life? You may read your Bible, but you don’t express your faith in school or work, because you don’t want to be known as the “Jesus freak”. You pray, but there are certain people in your life, who you don’t ever mention Jesus to because you don’t want them to see you in that identity....

Wickedness is gradually becoming a regular thing in our society, so the art of controlling people against their will through witchcraft is also on the increase. Witchcraft is one of the devices in the dark world that the devil empowers to carry out his mission of directing dark forces against God's creation. In this episode of Keep It 100 podcast, we take on this subject of divination, explain why...

From the book of Genesis onward, Satan has been on a mission to restrain women from fulfilling her destiny as a co-heir and co-laborer with Christ. Yes, she is different and unique, yet in Christ, she is qualified to rise up and boldly release the authority of Heaven on earth. It’s only when this mandate is fully restored and its expression is encouraged in the church that we will begin to see Hol...

The spiritual exercise of making decrees finds its precedent in both Old and New Testaments --the practice means simply quoting God's promises back to him, "reminding" him of what he has said. This kind of prayer is one of the most vital forms of intercession. In fact, the practice of decreeing God's Word not only builds our faith but transforms our lives. Job 22:28 states, "You will also declare...

When spiritual leaders fall from grace, it can have significant and far-reaching consequences for both their followers and the broader community. Spiritual leaders are often held to high moral and ethical standards, and their actions can deeply impact the trust and faith that people place in them. The fallout from the fall of a spiritual leader can extend beyond the immediate community to impact t...

Many cultures throughout history have attached profound spiritual and cultural significance to dreams. Dreams have inspired countless works of literature, art, and film. Dreams are a common part of the human experience, and they have been the subject of much study and speculation throughout history. They have often been viewed as messages from the Divine and sources of guidance. Dreams in Scriptur...

Why do many Christians put such a great emphasis on Israel? What makes Israel more significant from a biblical worldview than from a current mindset? "If you’re like me, you’ve often wondered why the Church places such an importance on “standing with Israel.” You’ve probably even seen some believers seeming "a little bit out of balance" in how they act, out of appreciation for Israel and the Jewis...

A few years ago, historian John Lukacs spoke on the campus of Eastern Nazarene College in Quincy, Massachusetts. While there Lukacs was interviewed by ENC professors and said the following about language:"Language is a very mysterious gift from God. In the beginning was the Word. Not the Fact. Not the Picture. Not the Number. Not the Image. It is through words that we relate to each other. It is t...

We are all created to CONNECT WITH GOD, and we are all created for relationship with Him. We are NOT GUESTS in the house of God. We are a family at the table of the Lord. Coming to the table of God awakens conversation with Him on a very intimate level. I believe the ability to personally hear the voice of God is essential for Christian living in the 21st century. It allows a FLOW OF HEAVEN into o...

Moses walked in some incredible miracles, but maybe his greatest contribution to the faith might have been his cry to experience the Glory. He experienced things that would have satisfied lesser followers, but he understood something vital to the faith. He kept it VERTICAL amidst a people that seemed trapped in the Horizontal.    “Vertical” Christianity makes a connection between th...

Sometimes similar to  Mary and Joseph (in Luke 2:41-46), we can lose Jesus in Church!   Certain horizontal dogma and dimensions can cloud us from the VERTICAL FOCUS and from an undistracted gaze upon Heaven. “Vertical” Christianity makes a connection between the individual and the Holy – from you to God. “Horizontal” Christianity makes a connection between the individual a...

Worship plays a pivotal role in fueling this passion, as the acts of devotion and adoration reinforce one's commitment to God.

Conversations on the idea of divine healing can sometimes bring up negative responses. It's at the point where people feel the need to give a trigger warning before they talk about it. This indicates a larger problem today in some church circles. Part of this is due to ignorance, part of this is due to some bad practices and personalities, but are we losing a corporate grip on a crucial...

CHOOSE YOUR HARD:....This statement is true for every area of your life where you desire change. Whether it's for nurturing relationships, losing weight, making money, building a business or establishing a spiritual legacy, we all do things that are hard, but we get to choose the RIGHT hard. In this episode of Keep It 100, we talk about the Grind that we are all called to and the fallacy of a...

Secularists, Intellectuals, the Rich, Famous, and all the rest of us quietly hope for those transcendent moments and manifestations where Heaven breaks into our mundane world. Isaiah (8:18) prophecies that we were made for this realm and its reality showing up in our everyday lives. We as a nation, have gotten beyond a point where a miracle is just a luxury but now its a necessity. But what if Jes...

Our culture is in a BIG hurry. Fast foods, instant coffee, speed dating, ready-made goods, Doordash, and offers of easy solutions to difficult problems are trendy in our generation. Unfortunately, many have falsely applied this rule to the making of a leader. They expect an emergence of a Moses without the wilderness experience, an Esther without prayer and fasting, and a David without sheeph...
