  • Episode 13: Unbiblical Things We Say

    You're in for a treat (I think)! In this episode I'm joined by one of my best friends, Joel Cardona as my first ever Co-Host. In this episode we discuss some very popular, albeit unbiblical things Christians say and teach. It's a fun one. Here are some of the things discussed.

    • Persecuting Saul vs. Saint Paul
    • Creation
    • Catholics
    • God's House
    • Seeing doctors
    • Deviled Eggs
    • And more!

      Leaders should always seek to lead with accurate and Biblical information. Credibility is a HUGE aspect of leadership and we should strive to always preserve truth. While it's true that the Bible is silent on many issues, we should be able to respect each other's opinions on those issues if it does not compromise the rest of Scripture and our relationship with Christ.

      • Episode 11: Serve to Lead, Lead to Serve

        In today's episode I share a message I shared with my church on the topic of leadership. No guest today =( we'll continue that format next week though, so no worries! Today's episode is based out 2 Timothy 2:20-21:

        _20 Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver but also of wood and clay, some for honorable use, some for dishonorable. 21 Therefore, if anyone cleanses himself from what is dishonorable, he will be a vessel for honorable use, set apart as holy, useful to the master of the house, ready for every good work.

        _

            • Episode 8: Finding Purpose Outside the Ministry

              Alexis Mondragon grew up as a Pastor's kid with certain expectations from members of his church. This episode highlights his journey to finding and stepping into his passion outside what others might have expected of him.

              I LOVE the first 20 minutes of this show. As a Pastor's kid myself, it was nice conversing with someone who was in many ways in the same shoes I was in growing up. The whole episode is great, but I really enjoyed his story growing up as a Pastor's kid in a very conservative church and hearing how he navigated out of the expectations others had of him. Alexis is a new blogger and has had many doors open to him recently as a fashion blogger and model.

              ANY FEEDBACK is appreciated, please reach out to me with suggestions, questions, or feedback at [email protected]. Also head over to your Apple Podcast app to leave a rating and review if you're enjoying the content. Thank you!
