Temple Restoration Project

Spiritual warfare impacts the lives of believers in significant ways. In this episode, Dr. Joel Muddamalle, who holds a PhD in theology and serves as the director of theology and research at Proverbs 31 Ministry, joins Jenny and Amanda to delve into this important topic. The discussion centers around Dr. Muddamalle’s new book, The Unseen Battle, which aims to broaden our understanding of spiritual...

Stories matter! My story, your story, your cities story, the Old Testament stories and the collective story of the Body of Christ, they all matter. We know in Scripture that Jesus taught His disciples by speaking in parables. What is a parable? It is a story. Hebrews 13:8 tells us that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. With that truth in mind, let’s ask some questions. Does...

This episode picks up where we left off last episode. Our discussion focuses on Colossians 3:9-10, as we begin by breaking them down to explore with the Lord the importance of these two verses. The second half of our time together is spent discussing the idea of being renewed in knowledge. We delve into the significance of continual renewal, its relationship to transformation and how it deepens ou...

Continuing the conversation from last episode, we explore the significance of our beliefs concerning end times and how they impact our daily lives. The discussion begins with an examination of the terminology Paul uses in Ephesians 6:12. Paul emphasizes that our struggles are not against flesh and blood, but rather against the rulers, principalities, and powers of the heavenly realm. Paul’s descri...

In this episode, Amanda and Jenny engage in a conversation centered around the idea of rapture. How do we accurately view the end times? How does the Day of the Lord fit into the bigger picture? These questions lead to an in-depth discussion concerning the fear of being left behind and the distraction that comes when we are laser-focused on the idea of rapture. What we begin to realize is that the...

With everything happening in the world, we need to remember God’s command to love one another. Hate dwells in the heart, the deepest part of our soul. It’s easy to point fingers at the hate shown through others’ actions, but it’s often hard to see what is in our own hearts. In this episode, Amanda and Jenny have an honest conversation about the hate that could be hiding inside each of us. What doe...

In today’s episode, Amanda looks at the phrase, “the body repurposed.” What does it mean to repurpose something? As an interior designer, she recalls the renovation process and examines the body’s origin and purpose in scripture. Through this process, questions begin to arise. Has humanity been duped into repurposing our bodies for our agenda? Are we hesitant to allow God access to renovate our in...

This week, we welcome Vicki Surber to the studio. Vicki is not only a long-standing client of 610Fit but also a cherished friend. At one point on her journey, Vicki realized that her body was no longer something she could rely on. In the midst of this challenge, she experienced a profound lesson: the Lord used this time to reveal that true trust could not be placed in the strength of the body but...

In the previous episode, we discussed the significance of the desires of our hearts. In this episode, we continue the discussion by exploring the relationship between our bodies and our desires. To understand this, we need to grasp the truth that our bodies are a temple of the Holy Spirit and as a temple, our bodies must reflect the greatness of God in their operation. Join us as we learn together...

This episode explores the health of our hearts, not physically but spiritually. One thing that is highlighted is that our spiritual condition is more important than our physical condition. This is important to understand because when our focus is set on the health of our bodies we can easily become blinded to the spiritual condition of our hearts. We know how to assess the condition of our bodies,...

When Jenny opened her personal training business, she named it 610Fit, which is derived from Ephesians 6:10. At the time, it was just a name, but little did she know the Lord had much bigger plans for the term. 610Fit became a term that defines what it means to become strong in the Lord. Our strength must be founded, rooted and built up in the Lord as it is essential to carrying out our mission as...

We can learn a lot about who God is and who we are in Christ from those who have gone before us. The concept that history repeats itself is significant. The journey of God’s people in the Old Testament is reflective of our journey with Him now. This episode delves into the book of Isaiah to reflect on how the Lord led His people victoriously through the toughest terrain. Also in Isaiah, the Lord r...

In this episode, we take a look at the band Needtobreathe and their song Hard Love. Needtobreathe holds a special place in Jenny’s heart. The Lord has used their music to teach and encourage her on her journey. The Lord also used a moment at a concert to show her what it means to live by grace. We discuss these stories and explore the band’s authenticity, which leads them to yield to the guidance...

This episode begins with the story of a walk in the park and a nudge from the Lord to follow the rabbit. What seems to make no sense makes perfect sense when we learn to perceive the ways of the Lord. The lesson the Lord taught through this story is that on our journey forward, we can't stay on the clear-cut path; we have to venture into the wilderness. This episode explores this concept while als...

Hebrews 12:1-2 is our call to join the journey of God’s people and run the race set before us. This episode highlights the journey and explores the concepts behind running the race. What is the race? What is the finish line of the race? By answering these questions, the Lord gives us a better understand of the training we must undergo so we can accurately witness to who Christ is by displaying the...

If we forget where we come from, we will forget where we are going. This is an important truth to grasp as we begin to form a united front and train for godliness. In Scripture, the Lord uses His leaders to emphasize the importance of remembering the past as a collective whole, and we too must remember. In this episode, we discuss this concept by diving into Hebrews 11 and 12. Once we began to exp...

Kirstey Ferguson, a young adult who loves the Lord, joins us this week to share her journey of becoming strong in the Lord (610Fit). Don’t let her age fool you, she brings to the table some important subjects. We discuss everything from rapture, anxiety, toxic work environments, and the struggles of those her age. This episode will challenge you to dive deeper into your relationship with the Lord;...

This episode is the beginning of a new trajectory for the Temple Restoration Project. It is time to gather as God’s people and begin to unite in our training for the mission and purposes of God. To come together and become of one accord, ready and willing to go wherever God leads us, so we may function at our full potential as the people of God. With that in mind, we ask the question, What does it...

Last episode explored what it looks like to fall back into captivity. This episode continues that exploration by taking a look at what our lives looked like before Christ. Upon the Lord’s prompting, we begin to look at the idea that despite being free, we are training ourselves to fall back into the captivity we once lived in when we were apart from Christ. How could the way we exercise and live o...

It’s time to address the battle that is before us. Those who are hostile to God desire to take us captive as prisoners of war. The issue we face is that we may have already been taken captive and our unaware. This episode explores our risk of falling into captivity by looking at Colossians 2:6-10. When we accept Christ, we receive Him by faith, but it doesn’t stop there. We must continue living ac...

We are excited to welcome Dr. Carmen Imes to the show this week. Dr. Imes is an associate professor of Old Testament at Biola University. She is well known for her love of the Bible and her desire to understand it well, and help others understand it well. We begin this episode by introducing Dr. Imes to the message of the Temple Restoration Project and the idea of living by faith over fitness. Fro...

Jenny has spent the last 4 weeks learning to wait on the Lord. In this episode, Amanda and Jenny discuss the lessons the Lord taught during this time. They centered around further understanding what it means to be weak, perceiving the Lord’s presence, and being ready to move when the Lord moves. Every lesson brings deeper understanding to the realization of how willing the Lord is to carry His chi...

We have reached a pivotal point in the podcast; the Lord is up to something, as He always is. In past episodes, Jenny shared the stories of the races that she ran with the Lord. Their purpose has always been to reveal God’s bigger plans for His children and teach what it means to be strong in Him, but one race has yet to be talked about. In this episode, we discuss the last race and its relationsh...

Through the years, Jenny has struggled with an overwhelming feeling of despair when faced with the task of conveying the message of The Temple Restoration Project and 610Fit. When these thoughts present themselves, feelings of heaviness and hopelessness come over her. It has always felt like a battlefield, a place the enemy shows up to slow down the momentum of the project, that was, until the Lor...

In the previous episode, Jenny shared her powerful story of how God freed her from anxiety. In this episode, Amanda opens up about her own journey, which began in first grade and persisted into her adult life. Through faith, Amanda found healing as the Lord restored her heart and granted her peace. Her testimony reminds us that while God's presence may not always be apparent in life's storms, hind...
