Serving others can bring great joy. It can also come about with guilt. And for some, the problem is less the desire to serve others and more the fear of being needy. In the church we serve and we are served. But serving happens in all of life, as we discuss on this episode. 

Mark 10:45 — "For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."

We should make disciples of all the nations. But how? What should we say? Does it matter if we say anything? The very concept of "evangelize" implies that we ought to speak; the gospel is "good news" and to share your faith is to share the news about Jesus. We discuss what this looks like in this episode.

God wants us to fast. But not always, and not in the same way as they did in the times of the Old Covenant. And we must ensure we fast for the right reasons.

Matthew 6:16 — "When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show others they are fasting."

You are not a soul with a body. You are not a body with a soul. You are soul and body. Based on this theology, we must take care of our physical bodies in matters such as exercise, eating, sleep, and sex. On this episode, Jon, Andrew, and Jeremy discuss the goodness of these things, and how to grow in discipline in these areas.

In 1 Corinthians 9:27 Paul says, "But I discipline my body and keep it under control, lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified."

God wants us to have good friends. One way that can happen is by first being a good friend. And a good way of getting started with that is recognizing how God has been a good friend to you.

Proverbs 18:24 — "One who has unreliable friends soon comes to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother."
