From the inception of the KTB Podcast, we have always taken a subject based approach to discussions... ( Or at least we've try to).  But we figured out it was about time to just turn on the microphones and talk about anything that comes to mind.  In this episode we also go live on Instagram and interact with our viewers/listeners. So sit back, get you a cup of the strongest coffee that you can find on this side of the Mississippi.

There is no denying that music is a big part of our lives and cultures.  Many of us have even been raised in households that listen to music.  Music that makes us feel good, bad, happy, sad, or maybe even violent.  Why is that? What is it about music that enables it to have such a powerful control over our feelings and emotions?  Join us with very special guest Pastor and musician, Ernie Toppin from the UK as we discuss the influence that music has in our lives. You don't want to miss this one.

Raising young men to be productive, functioning members of society in this generation is no easy task.  We are plagued by a generation of young men that have no guidance, morals or values; for the lack of a better term...Knuckleheads.  How do we break this pattern of knuckleheads being released into the world?  Listen in as we are joined by special guest and long-time church brother Dustin as we dissect how to not raise a knucklehead.

Maybe you have considered doing something for God.  Perhaps you are even called to pioneer a church in a foreign place.  When it comes to making these important decisions in life, no doubt there are many considerations that must be made.  What about our children?  Do we stop and take the time to listen to them and see how they feel about it or how they are affected.  The life of a church kid/Pastors kid is a unique one to say the least.  Join us with special guest Anthony as we discuss the Life of a Church Kid/Pastors Kid.  You very well may be surprised by how much our children go thru when we as adults decide to serve God.  Grab a bag of Takis and listen in on this engaging and informative episode.

We have all at some point been motivated to do something great in our lives.  Maybe it was a motivational YouTube video to lose weight, or possibly a sermon preached at a Bible conference to go out and preach the gospel to the world.  Once we get that motivation, how do we keep going after the motivation starts to fade and everyday life starts coming at you again.  Join us as we discuss this very topic.  Listen as we explore how we can continue on a path that leads us closer and closer to our goals after we've been motivated or stirred.  Grab a nice smooth cup of nitro cold brew and join us on another challenging episode.

The definition of Self-Control reads: The ability to control oneself, in particular one's emotions and desires or the expression of them in one's behavior, especially in difficult situations.  Join us as we dive into the many areas that having self-control is absolutely vital.  We also answer questions and receive feedback from our amazing listeners.  Grab a handful of Boston backed beans...pull up a chair...and join us for this engaging conversation.

Marriage can be a challenge. Many enter into marriage thinking all will be daisies and roses.  One would say if you lean a little bit closer, the roses really smell like boo boo.  Marriage is like a garden, it will only look beautiful if you spend your time working in it.  The grass isn't always greener on the other side, it's greener where you water it.  Listen in as our wives Josie and Jessica join us to speak about not only love in a marriage...but also when there is war. Grab some kettle corn and settle in...its about to get real.
