Jimmy’s Table Podcast

"Are we there yet?" is a common question kids ask on long car trips. And why? They are bored and feel stuck. Sometimes our lives can feel that way. We get to a place where we simply feel stuck. In today's podcast, I talk about how we can navigate these moments of life where we don't feel like we are moving forward and are in a sort of holding pattern...

There can often be a stigma associated with going to therapy, especially in Evangelical Christian circles.

There are signs of a housing "bubble" forming according to the U.S. Federal Reserve. In this podcast, I explore the reasons behind the bubble, whether or not there will be a housing crash like we saw in 2008, or what other scenarios we might see happen...

With the war between Ukraine and Russia waging, and possibly threatening a global nuclear war, it made me wonder if we've ever lived in a world without war, and if such a world is possible.

We are hearing of "wars and rumors of wars" in the news. Russia's war with Ukraine has sparked apocalyptic concerns with some people.

Jesus said the second greatest commandment is to love your neighbor as yourself. Tough words. For, if we are being honest with ourselves, that commandment almost seems... annoying. Loving our neighbor is simply not something most of us intuitively want to do. In today's podcast, I talk about how we can better love our neighbor...

What does it mean to be a devout Christian? And how can you grow in your devotion to the Lord? And, what does that look like at a practical level? In this week's podcast, I explore the question of what the devotional life of a Christian truly is, and what it's not. The answer may surprise you.

Valentine's Day celebration is often symbolized by the image of Cupid, the ancient god of romantic desire. In this podcast, I examine the meaning of Cupid, and challenge the notions of love surrounding Cupid from a Christian perspective, and whether or not we should just kill Cupid off...

In church a preacher will often say "God is good..." to which the congregation will reply, "...all the time." And then the preacher will echo back "And all the time..." to which the congregation will respond "...God is good." In today's podcast, I look to explore the idea that God is fundamentally good, especially when the circumstances of our lives make us think God is not good.
