We're talking about glory, what God has planned for those who believe in Him, the role of affirmation, and how we accidentally instinctively shrug off encouragement. It's a good one! Listen in.
Jesus did hard things. Comforts are abounding in our day and it's hard to choose, out of our own volition, to do something hard. But would it be good for us and help us become more of who God created us to be? Would it teach us something? Listen in!
Fear of failure. Whether you've been taught it or not, you've probably experienced it in a way that it was hard to move towards something. Normal! This is a normal human experience. And yet, for those who follow Jesus, we're not under the thumb of fear, we're under the reign of Jesus who sets us free. So how can we fight this fear of failure? Listen in!
Some questions are hard simply because we fear not liking the answer. Yet they may have an answer that helps us understand and deal with reality. In this case: will God abandon you? Listen in!
Am I running the right race? AKA, the right major, the right direction in life, the right career path, the right mission in life, etc. How do we find our niche and run that race well? How can we know if we're running the wrong race? Listen in!
God created us with needs! Justin and I start the convo discussing our hearts being captivated by Christ, which quickly becomes a realization that we have needs we need to meet. This isn't a dilution of Christ, but an understanding of how God made us. Do you know what you need and how do you fill them? Listen in!
This week we're talking about what it means to be "all in" with God. Not 99% but 100%. How can I know if I'm all in? What if I'm hedging? All very normal things, yet need to be confronted! Listen in.
You're at a fork in the road and you need to make a decision that could alter your life. Which way do you go? What do you choose? HOW do you choose? And do I make this decision 100% on my own or do I involve anyone else? That's what we're talking about this week. Listen in!
We all have dreams we care about or things we really want to get done. But what happens when you want something so bad that you choose it over God? Is that alright? I mean, we can't be reading the Bible all day, right? We've got lives to live! But when we start making other things more important than God, that's where things get messy. You'll find it's really a matter of the heart and choosing God first in all circumstances despite whatever you're doing or moving towards. Let's talk about that.
Jesus promises abundant life (John 10:10). How can we step into that? This week we discuss a conversation between Nick and Kyle that happened outside of the podcast that helped Nick do just that, which had a profound impact. Listen in!

About A Better Answer with Kyle Ranson
From the publisher's feed
Do you ever wish you could just ask someone about all the random stuff you go through each week and get help? That's what I'm going to do.
Each week I'm bringing a real, live situation up to Kyle Ranson, a mentor of mine who's gone through all this stuff. I'm not just looking for the typical answer—I'm looking for a better answer through a faith perspective, and that's what he's going to help me with.
