Well Soul Podcast

Send us Fan Mail Jesus starts to speak with warnings. Some people who THINK they will enter the Kingdom, will be let on the doorstep. And some of those who are last in the ways of the world, will be first when it comes to future glory. Will that be you? Listen to this episode about Luke 13 and consider the difference between religious activity and truly being a follower of Jesus. ------ BUY ME A C...

Send us Fan Mail Jesus teaches his followers many lessons about what it looks like to follow Him—including what it looks like to follow Him in how we WORRY about our earthly possessions and physical needs. In this week's episode, we consider where we "set our hearts"—do we set our hearts on the kingdom? This episode will help us consider stewardship and how to free our souls from th...

Send us Fan Mail What would happen if we prayed with audacity? In this week's podcast episode we mediate on Jesus' teaching on persistent, audacious prayer and reflect on how we might enter into more of what God has for us—by boldly talking to God. This episode just might change the course of your prayer life. ----- BUY ME A COFFEE to support the production of this podcast. INHABITING TH...

Send us Fan Mail Sometimes we run through our moments so quickly, we actually miss what's important. It might be helping someone with a flat tire or pausing to listen to a friend. How can we make sure we don't miss sacred moments? Listen to this week's podcast to consider how to enter into the moments in your life—especially as we begin the holiday season. ----- BUY ME A COFFEE to s...

Send us Fan Mail Jesus gifted His disciples with power and authority to do the work God gave them to do. And God moved powerfully through them. So, it makes sense that the disciples expected Jesus to also deliver them from the political powers in their generation—to bring the Kingdom Jesus declared. But Jesus came to die, to deliver us from the powers of hell. Two times in Luke 9, Jesus predicts h...

Send us Fan Mail We want to live a fruitful life in the Kingdom of God—but sometimes we seem to be moving through our days without making much of a difference (or so we think). Listen and mediate on the Parable of the Sower to consider how to cultivate a fruitful life for the kingdom, right where you are. -------- BUY ME A COFFEE to support the production of this podcast.

Send us Fan Mail We try to do all the "right things" as Christians, but there isn't a day that we don't mess up—again and again. Instead of ridiculing ourselves, the recognition of our shortcomings can be reminders of the extravagance of God's grace and encourage us to follow Him. In Luke 7 we see the religious leaders declare someone is "worthy" of Jesus because...

Send us Fan Mail Following Jesus is not easy—especially when we deal with difficult people. Luke the physician writes about a series of encounters between Jesus and some difficult religious people who speak against him and plot evil in their hearts. In this episode you will see that Jesus had to face challenging people and then consider his teaching on how to live amongst those who are just down r...

Send us Fan Mail Simon Peter encountered Jesus through a miraculous catch of fish and then left everything to follow Jesus.  Levi (the sinner tax-collector) also put down his hustle to follow Jesus.  Sometimes following Jesus looks foolish (who would just leave their jobs in a split moment?), but faithfulness is never foolish from a Kingdom perspective. In this episode, you will have moments to re...

Send us Fan Mail The Spirit led Jesus into the wilderness to be tempted by Satan. Since God-of-the-Universe, made flesh, was moved by the Spirit into a time of preparation through resisting the enemy—then we can expect to encounter our own spiritual wilderness seasons too. But Jesus also gives us the example of HOW to persevere our own wilderness: through the truth of Scripture. In this episode, y...

Send us Fan Mail We want a close relationship with God, but sometimes it feels like He is light years away. In Luke 3 we reflect on John the Baptist preaching in the wilderness. Curious listeners asked John what one must do to enter the kingdom. John's message is both convicting and refreshing—and I think helps us remember how to experience spiritual renewal when it seems like God's pres...

Send us Fan Mail Sometimes life feels like Merry-Go-Round of bewilderment. We just want to make sense of the landscape — but it feels a bit like a spinning blur. In this episode, we drink in passages from Luke Ch. 2, where we see Mary's response to the prophetic encounters regarding  Jesus' young life—and the challenges of mothering her son (hint: he disappeared for 3 days when he was 12...

Send us Fan Mail We all want to have peace within, but often it feels like only a dream. How can we find wholeness and peace instead of stress and anxiety? How can we live with purpose instead of live in a rush? I've asked myself these questions over the past few years and have discovered that wholeness begins with a well soul—and a well soul is sourced, founded, rooted in 3 truths: 1. Repent...

Send us Fan Mail Crazy things happen. A car accident changes our active lifestyle. A loved one dies unexpectedly. The company closes and our income disintegrates.  Name your "crazy." I'm sure you have experienced something that knocks you off your feet. And often (at least for me), the first thing that springs from our soul is a question, "Why? How?"  I've questioned...
