HAPPY NEW YEAR!! As we get ready to start a brand-new year, I am joined once again by my friend Stephen as we take a look at what’s in store for the new year. We talk about what some of our past traditions have been along with what new traditions we have started. We then take a deep dive into the difference between rhythms and resolutions and why new year life rhythms are better. Finally, we discuss several spiritual disciplines and how we can have better rhythms in our time with God in the coming year. We hope you enjoy and just want to say again, happy new year, God bless!

Merry Christmas Y’all!! Today I am joined once again by my good friend Stephen as we continue our discussion about Christmas! We take a long look at the accounts of Jesus’ birth as recorded in Luke 2. We then explore what Advent means and why it is a great rhythm for Christians to slow down and remember that Christ has indeed come and will come again! Finally we discuss whether or not Christians should celebrate Christmas or was it just a pagan holiday. These really blessed us and we hope and pray that the gospel of Christ’ coming blesses you all as well. Merry Christmas Everyone, God bless!

After taking a break from our Worldview series, Gabe and I are back to finish exploring what a worldview is and how it directs our lives. In this episode, we look at a few of the more prominent worldviews out there such as Humanism, Marxism, and New Age (to name a few). We break these worldviews down and look at how, as each removed God from the picture, they became more destructive to humanity. Finally, we end with how we as Christians should handle these other worldviews and how (armed with the truth) we can overcome them for the good of our neighbors.

From everyone here at The Free Man's Podcast, happy Thanksgiving! With so much craziness in our world today, I hope you find this message a blessing. And I want to encourage you to not let today go by without taking time to thank God for His abundant blessings on you, your family, your church and community, and on this country! So again, Happy Thanksgiving y’all!

In today's exciting episode, I am joined by my good friend Gabe Jolly as we discuss the ins and outs of what a worldview is. We explore how a worldview is the way we look at all of life. We then look at how a worldview answers the primary questions about life which then enables us to know how we should then live. Finally, Gabe and I finish out by look at what a Biblical Worldview is, and how it is the only view that gives a full and complete answer to life and how we should live in all areas of our lives.

In this final episode on the Roman Republic, I am joined by Cam again as we look at how the Roman Republic became the Roman Empire. We explore the steps that led to the rise of the Caesars and their despotic rule. We end by comparing the fall of the Roman Republic with where the United States is today and we show that we do not have to follow Roman’s lead into tyranny.

We also discuss how Christianity (after the Republic) transformed western civilization. Finally, we dig into some of the most important values of the Roman Republic and how some of those ideals mirror Biblical principles.

But not only that we talk about anything from Indiana Jones movies to Bible man and have a ton of laughter along the way!

Join Cam and I in an exciting new episode as we explore the history and government structure of the Roman Republic! In this first of three parts, we look at the difference between a republic and a democracy, and how contrary to popular belief, the Founding Fathers of the United States did not build a democracy, they didn’t even try and rebuild the Roman Republic. Rather our Founders sought to create a better republic. This first part will also explore the early history of the Roman Republic along with the key functional components of the Republic.
