Genuine

Easter is commonly known as the Super Bowl of the church world. Our entire faith rests on the death and resurrection of Jesus. At Easter, most of us celebrate by prioritizing our church attendance. However,  busyness and distractions can cause us to miss the deep meaningful connection God wants to have with us at Easter. Let's have a genuine conversation about it. 

In this episode we welcome special guest, Ed Ford, who is an elected member of the Middletown Common Council. In this discussion of "Genuine Politics" Ed shares his experience as a Christian within the political realm. We also talk about our role as Christians and the role of the Church in politics and social change.

What is a genuine friend? Cultivating a friendship requires a sacrifice of time and energy with a balance of give and take. Sustaining them can be hard, but they greatly enrich your life and improve your health in many ways. 

In this [Part 2] episode, we continue our discussion on the importance of speaking truth into someone's life, but in a manner that displays grace. We get "genuine" in this one...

Christians often talk about the need to “speak the truth in love,” a command found in Ephesians 4:15. In this episode, we discuss the importance of speaking truth into someone's life, but in a manner that displays grace. Truth & Grace are entwined. (Part 1)

Love is in the air! In this special Valentines Day Edition of the Genuine Podcast,  Rich & Ross invite their spouses Vicki & Isabelle to discuss Valentines Day, love, and marriage. 

We were created to be creators! Last week we talked about what you take in (Consume), this week we discuss what you put out (Produce)... As followers of Jesus it's imperative that we use our passions, talents, gifts, and desires for our own well-being, to serve others, and to glorify God. How do you output; produce; create?

We're Back! Season 2 of the Genuine Podcast is here! On this episode Ben, Rich and new addition to the podcast, Ross, will be talking about the content we consume as far as social media, books, music, podcasts, etc... Is 'what' or 'how much' you're consuming healthy? We will also share some motivations and ways to keep ourselves in check when it comes to what we mentally snack on.

Were talking motivation. Get pumped, get psyched! For the right reasons this time. A lot of people are working their way out of a slump right now and that includes us. Tune in to Ben's specific brand of bitterness and find out Rich's secret to waking up every morning for the G R I N D.

Talking points include: Bitterness, Ugh...like, you know?, You get out what you put in, mindfulness....again.

This one is EXPLICIT. I'm sorry okay. Ben said a bad word. but in the spirit of staying *Genuine* he wanted to just leave it in and be his genuine sailor-mouthed self. Please don't tell his grandparents. This one's about LIES. This one is actually one of our first requested topics because someone was wondering what we as genuine Christians should do when we find ourselves in front of possible "white lies". STRAP IN! We're gonna get petty.

Talking Points Include: LIVE EPISODE, Dunkin Donuts Employees, "The Butter of Relationships", and some light role play.
