Life Around "The Fire"

Send us Fan Mail If I can't trust you, believe you or have confidence in the typr of love we talk about sharing we really don't have what is called a healthy relationship with each other (or anyone else, really). Trusting in what someone says and who they arre is a foundational building block for having real, healthy relationships. I'm learning to trust my heavenly Father more and m...

Send us Fan Mail Even  though we all know, for the most part, that people are just people. I know someone who is now passed and is safe and very satisfied Living Eternal Life with Yeshua/Jesus on the other side. However, while alive on the Earth, they were terrified, by and large, of people. Folks would encourage her but to no avail. She was very concerned and controlled by the opinions of other p...

Send us Fan Mail One day after using a power blower to clean off my carport I noticed I was filthy with dirt, dust, twigs, leaves and other scraps. I was "a mess". All because I used a power blower. The Kingdom of God is somewhat like a power blower in the sense that it does a supernatural job but it kicks up somne dust and other trash as it's cleaning the area and we can get messy....

Send us Fan Mail When the lights are turned low even a messy room can look clean on the surface. Turn on the lights and you find a different story. The same can be said of things spiritually. The powers of darkness do not like being seen in the light because it reveals what they really look like and who they are. Satan loves himself, he loves lies, he loves to steal, kill and destry things. He doe...

Send us Fan Mail Growing up on a small farm outside of a small mining town in Northern Minnesota (Hibbing) my brother-in-law had a bee farm for making honey located on an acre or two in the back, far 20. I thought it was a pretty cool set-up. But, I kept my distance. One day I saw him (Jerry, my brother-in-law) with a device that looked like a glorified watering can. Except it had smoke coming out...

Send us Fan Mail Change... Things change... I change... You change... You would think we have all grown accustomed to and maybe even love change. Or not... A Big Change Is Upon Us. And getting bigger... What are we going to do about it? This introduction will lead us into a 5 part series on "The Kingdom, The Power, And The Glory Of God". Hold on (or let go), because Jesus is  behind the...

Send us Fan Mail This life we live is quite a journey. It's nothing like I thought it was going to be. Some of it is way better and more robust with love and happiness than I could muster on my own. It's also been harder than I imagined it was going to be at times. This podcast episode is a summary and an introduction all wrapped in one. It's kind of like life. You've got to ge...

Send us Fan Mail Some people love eating liver and onions. I'm not one of them. Liver and onions is not my faorite meal to "Super-size". Demonization is like that also, for me. It's important and healthy to address. I just don't care for it. However, I'm going to do my best (with God's help) to take a basic look at the reality of "Power Encounters". Thi...

Send us Fan Mail God, our heavenly Father loves us. Satan, the prince of the power of the air, hates us. We live in a dual reality. The Kingdom of God will overcome all opposition. However, the battles are real and they take on different shapes and sizes. Be wise, not fearful! Be faithful, not easily sidetracked! Support the show Loving Yeshua/Jesus, Loving people... Come as you are and you will b...

Send us Fan Mail Allowing in and letting go... Sounds easy enough unless you are talking about removing porcupine quills. Now we're looking at things a little more carefully. That's basically a look at one's interior life/soul after experiencing any form of abuse. Don't touch me as we hold onto the past pain with a fear-stricken deathgrip holding onto it in our minds. Rehearsin...

Send us Fan Mail Why can't I get my mind to be quiet? What if I don't feel close to God? I have a hard time trusting. All of these things are common concerns with a common cause.

Send us Fan Mail Jesus said, "I saw Satan fall like lightning." He was giving His disciples His synopsis of their tour throughout Israel, "Doing the Kingdom Stuff." Well, there's a whole lot of shaking going on right now in the heavenlies. For all of you who have been praying with us over the past couple of years... "THANK YOU!!!" There are some powerful testimon...

Send us Fan Mail If 12 people followed you around (literally), full time, 24 hours a day , 365 days a year, for 3 1/2 years what would they look like after 3 1/2 years? Would they be full of worry and have a judgemnental attitude? Would they look like God, our heavenly Father (like Jesus/Yeshua revealed to us)? What is going on inside of us is also going on outside of us! What is going on outside...

Send us Fan Mail What is "A Brood of Vipers"? How does salt lose it's saltiness? What is religion anyway? Is God a religion? Is religion  the same as relationship? Why are there so many different denominations in Christianity? Is Christianity a religion the same as Budhism is a religion? Did God create religious denominations? No wonder people get confused and quit looking for real,...

Send us Fan Mail Persecution isn't the end of the world... it just feels like it sometimes. People want you to succeed... only so much. People can be incredibly kind. People can do some creepy things. How we handle success and power says a lot about our character. Are you a person who blesses othger people or are you a person who persecutes other people? What type of person are you? Support t...

Send us Fan Mail It's funny what takes place when a person gets a promotion. Some people celebrate our success. Other people don't like it. Why? That's what this podcast episode is all about.

Send us Fan Mail Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Does it really matter? In our expereince we've found out that some things matter and some things don't. Not too profound. However, knowing the difference is important. That's what we come in. We're here pointing out how things really are and some of the things that really matter. So, kick back, listen, learn, and see wh...

Send us Fan Mail Who in their right mind would call persecution a blessing? Have you ever really been persecuted? Persecuted for doing what's right? It seems backwards and upside down. That's the nature of the Kingdom of God. God doesn't do things the same way we do. His ways are higher than ours. In the next 12 episodes we are going to be looking at some rather paradoxical, but imp...

Send us Fan Mail Have you ever been plagued with a thought or a song you can't get out of your head? How about a case of hiccups you can't shake. Or, you can't stop sneezing or yawning. We all get "stuck" on things are we just can't seem to shake some of the others. Fear, guilt, and shame can be like that. We might intellectually understand that God has forgiven us. H...

Send us Fan Mail The age old problem of the "have's" and the "have not's" is solved in the New "Cut" Covenant made in the shed Blood of Jesus (all of it... unto death). People have been fighting over this issue of inequality for as long as there has been time. The rich keep getting richer and the poor keep getting poorer... except in the New Covenant communi...

Send us Fan Mail "I don't have time for organized, disorganized, or dead religion." Thus sayeth the LORD! I've said those very words. In fact someone said that to me not too long ago when they found out about what this podcast was featuring. They said, "Sorry, I'm not into organized religion". So, I agreed. They now listen to this podcast. Because, God is into &q...

Send us Fan Mail "If only I could make my kids would see things the way I do. I know that they would be better off." Anyone who is a parent knows that feeling. "Why don't they get it?" Anyone who knows anyone knows that feeling. God knows that feeling. So, He did something about it. He developed an entirely new, ingeneous way of getting that very thing to take place withou...
