Why does Santa get all the attention while the Easter Bunny barely gets noticed? This episode explores how our culture’s overemphasis on Christmas—and neglect of Easter—reveals a deeper spiritual imbalance. The resurrection is the foundation of our faith, yet Easter often gets reduced to egg hunts and candy. We’ll dive into why the empty tomb matters more than ever, and how we can celebrate Easter with the depth it truly deserves. What does the resurrection mean to you—not just once a year, but every day?

What makes Easter the cornerstone of Christian faith, and why does it seem to get overshadowed so often? This powerful spiritual kickoff episode tackles the monumental significance of Christ's resurrection through an off-the-cuff, Spirit-led exploration of 1 Corinthians 15. The resurrection separates Christianity from every other belief system. While many religions follow teachers who remain in their graves, we serve a risen Savior who conquered death itself. Through compelling historical evidence—including over 500 eye-witnesses, the testimony of Jesus' skeptical half-brother James, and the transformed lives of the apostles who faced death for their testimony—we see why the empty tomb changes everything.

In this unflinchingly honest conversation, Nick Stumbo shares his journey from serving as a senior pastor while secretly battling pornography addiction to finding freedom and now helping others as Executive Director of Pure Desire Ministries. Nick reveals how his early exposure to sexual content created patterns of shame and secrecy that followed him into adulthood, marriage, and ministry—despite his sincere faith and leadership position. What makes this episode particularly powerful is the exploration of why churches and seminaries continue to avoid addressing sexual brokenness effectively, despite statistics showing 75% of men and 44% of women in congregations struggle with pornography. Nick explains how the taboo nature of sexuality in Christian contexts creates perfect conditions for shame to flourish while healing stagnates.

What are you clinging to that's weighing you down? Apostle Paul's powerful declaration in Philippians 3:7 offers a transformative perspective on surrender and true fulfillment: "But whatever were gains to me, I now consider loss for the sake of Christ." Paul wasn't speaking as someone with nothing to lose. As the "Pharisee of Pharisees," he had achieved the highest religious status in his culture. Yet after encountering Jesus, everything he once valued suddenly appeared worthless compared to knowing Christ. His radical transformation reveals a powerful truth: the things we believe bring fulfillment often leave us empty.

Every Christian father wrestles with the weight of responsibility—how do we effectively pass our faith to our children in a way that truly sticks? Drawing from Psalm 78:4, this episode dives deep into the biblical mandate to "tell the next generation" about God's faithfulness. We explore Barrett Johnson's powerful framework for discipling children like Jesus discipled His followers—through abiding, modeling, teaching, applying, and connecting. The conversation unpacks practical strategies that any father can implement, regardless of biblical knowledge or background. You'll discover a simple three-question approach (What happened? So what? Now what?) that transforms family Bible study from awkward monologues into engaging dialogues that build genuine faith understanding.

Every Christian father carries a divine mandate to disciple their children, passing down not just traditions but a living faith. Drawing from Psalm 78:4, this episode explores the profound responsibility we have to share God's praiseworthy deeds and wonders with the next generation. Your children pay attention to more than your words—they're watching how you live your faith. When you share personal stories of God's faithfulness in your life, you transform abstract biblical concepts into tangible realities they can grasp and remember. The faith that sticks isn't found in occasional religious conversations but in the daily rhythm of life—bedtime prayers, dinner discussions, car rides, and walking together.

Do you find yourself constantly running from one commitment to the next with barely a moment to breathe? In this powerful episode, we dive deep into the biblical concept of margin and why it's absolutely essential for Christian men who want to grow as disciples and leaders. The story of Martha and Mary serves as our foundation, revealing how even well-intentioned service can rob us of what matters most. Martha's frantic preparations while Jesus sat in her living room mirror our own tendency to prioritize busyness over presence. As Jesus gently reminded her, "Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her."
