  • The Church and Culture with Jeffrey Goodman (part 2)

    This is the second part of my talk with my pastor Jeffrey Goodman. In this episode we explore how the church should, shouldn't, and doesn't navigate itself in the never ending onslaught of trending issues, news, and politics. As Christians we know we are supposed to be a "City on a Hill," yet we have to live in a real world with systems and subjects we can't ignore. So I wanted to ask Jeffrey how he handles these things and more.

  • Going Nuclear with Tucker Stachitas

    I've heard a lot about nuclear energy and nuclear weapons, but to be honest I couldn't tell you much about them other than they are powerful in good and bad ways. I spoke to my friend Tucker Stachitas about nuclear energy and weapons because he studied it and even worked on a nuclear sub in the Navy. Here are a few ideas for more education on this subject.

  • The Church Plant Challenge with Jeffrey Goodman

    I got to have my pastor Jeffrey Goodman on the podcast. He is the lead pastor of Destiny Church in Leesburg, VA. We ended up extending the convo into two episodes, but this first one will cover his background, the call to plant a church, and the challenges he faced.

  • Satellites and the Stock Exchange with Bryan Byrnes

    My neighbor Bryan works on satellites that are literally flying around above our heads right now! And before he did that, he was basically the Wolf of Wall Street. He's also written a book and working on another one. I thought he would be a great guest to have on to talk about a variety of things, and I was wrong. Just kidding. This episode packs in a lot of info but it's fun as I got to learn more about Bryan's story, some physics, and that I could never survive as a stock broker. Bryan will definitely be back on as we didn't have enough time to get into everything he can speak to, but I hope you enjoy round one.

  • Appeasement - Ukraine, Russia & WWII
    Shout out to the people who saw this podcast pop up in their queue for the first time in months. I'm still here! 
    Aaron Walsh is back on and we look at the political, diplomatic strategy of "appeasement." It was tried leading up to WWII and we know how that went. It seems to be the strategy of at least the U.S. right now with Russia. What is it? Is it effective? And what does it look like right now? 
    Hope to have some more episodes out in the next few months, too. Tell my kids to sleep in past 5:00 am and we'll have more episodes, ok?

  • Therapy & Me
    Counseling or therapy is often seen as a last resort. But I recently started going and wish I'd made this a consistent part of my life for years. In this episode I'll share a little bit of my story, and then also talk to my friend Mike Evans who is a counselor about the stigma of mental health counseling, and what someone can expect from sessions.

  • What is Prayer?

    "Life is a mystery. Everyone must stand alone. I hear you call my name, and it feels like home . . . Just like a prayer your voice can take me there." 

    - That's from a beautiful poem I wrote to my wife.  

    So what is prayer? Is it merely asking God for stuff while he ignores us? Is it begging? Is it one-way communication? 

    I talk with Linley Ali in this episode that really came at an important time for me and I've been trying to apply to my life what I learned in this episode since. I hope you enjoy it and it enhances your idea of prayer.

    **Also in the opening segment I talk about how a religious group has oppressed me. I need your help in my fight back.

  • Ambition Without Burnout with Queirra Fenderson
    A lot of people wear their busyness like a badge of honor, and we can often equate being stressed out with being important. My friend Queirra is one of the most driven people I know, but she learned (the hard way) that work without a balance of rest will lead us to burnout. Queirra is an ICF Professional Certified Coach and speaker who helps small businesses, large corporations, and individuals get unstuck from analysis paralysis and helps them to break the cycle of repetitiveness. 
    This episode wraps up what I'm calling "Season 1" of this podcast, and I can't think of a better episode to close out this season. We discussed our own highs and lows and what drives us in our own ambitions. It could have easily been 10 hours of us talking, but hey I wouldn't do that to you. I'm not Joe Rogan.
