June 23, 2026Permit the Children: A Church's Responsibility to the Next Generation

In this episode, Dr. Gene Mims opens Luke chapter 18 and brings a deeply personal word about children, the church, and what it means to invest in the next generation.

"The influence of parents and the integrity of parents means more to a child's development than anything else. It's not how perfect you are. It's not how much you can provide. It's whether you have integrity, spiritual integrity."

June 16, 2026The Counterintuitive Life
What do you do with the people in your life who hurt you, exclude you, and make things harder than they need to be? Jesus had a very specific answer — and it's nothing like what you'd expect. Dr. Gene Mims opens Luke chapter 6 and unpacks one of the most challenging passages in Scripture. This one will make you think — and maybe make you clench up just a little.

🗝️ Key Topics
(7:57) Kingdom living is completely counterintuitive
(10:00) Loving your enemy means putting their interests first
(19:45) You don't know who you might change

📖 Key Scriptures
⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Luke 6:27-33⁠⁠⁠⁠

💬Quote from the Episode
"It's not transactional. This is the world. If you love me, I love you. If you make me feel good, I'll make you feel good. That's transaction. God says, 'I love you. Period.'"

June 09, 2026How To Pray: What Jesus Actually Said
What if you've been praying backwards this whole time? Dr. Gene Mims walks through the Lord's Prayer in Matthew chapter 6 and shows us why Jesus told His disciples to start with God — not their needs, not their fears, not their circumstances. Short, practical, and deeply biblical.

🗝️ Key Topics

(7:41) Start with God, not your need
(17:15) Surrendering to God's Will is where peace begins

💬Quote from the Episode
"It’s not a matter of getting the answer that we want, it’s a matter of finding what God’s will is because God sees your life from the beginning of your life and before the beginning of your life and my life all the way to eternity.”

June 02, 2026The Mystery of Healing
Have you ever prayed for healing — for yourself or someone you love — and felt like God went quiet? Dr. Gene Mims opens Luke chapter 5 and tackles one of the most personal, painful questions in the Christian life: why does God heal some people and not others? This episode is honest, pastoral, and deeply personal. You'll want to hear it.

🗝️ Key Topics
(5:33) Healing is a mystery, but it follows a pattern
(10:56) The greater need is always relationship
(13:21) God's power is present, but never automatic

May 26, 2026There's Power In Love
What do you do when the world gets mean — and it's aimed at you? Dr. Gene Mims opens Luke 6 and unpacks the words of Jesus that are easy to read and hard to live: love your enemies, bless those who curse you, and pray for those who mistreat you.
