Phil and Terrel discuss how God is NOT an unblinking cosmic stare that is going to do what He wants regardless of what you ask Him for.

We all know this even if some of us don't want to admit it. You don't want to miss this one!

Phil and Terrel discuss more of Ch. 7 of the Divine Conspiracy. We are not called to be heroic in prayer for ourselves or others. We are called to a life of intimate interactivity with the Father.

Phil and Terrel discuss how we MUST release ourselves from absorbing desires that tend to destroy our relationships. The world teaches us to compete with others for what we want. But is this the Way of the Kingdom? NO!! Confidence in God alone should be and can be the basis upon which we relate with others. Prayer IS the alternative to fighting others over what we want. It IS the solution to compe...

Phil and Terrel discuss the bondage of wealth in Ch. 6 of The Divine Conspiracy. Money has conquered ALL of us. The pursuit of wealth has shaped our public forms of Christian devotion more than anything else in human history. Jesus is the only one who can set us free from the god of the world, aka: mammon.

A continued discussion of Ch. 6 of The Divine Conspiracy. Ideas are powerful, but which ideas are from God? Are you living life within the range of human competence? From whom are you seeking a response? God will respond to our expectations.
