THOUGHTS WHILE DRIVING

In this episode I share my thoughts about how we too often act as if things are so bad that we can't live faithfully, this is both historically and biblically false. No matter the time we can and should live faithfully.

In this episode I share how my experience this season with the Cincinnati Reds is not an ideal way to live the Christian life. The highs and lows of being a sports fan should not be the pattern of discipleship.Rather the life of faith should be one of consistent progress up the mountain to the Kingdom of God.

In this episode I share my thoughts about responses to the Charlie Kirk memorial. Many responded with an emotional and political perspective but missed the greater spiritual significance. The book of Jeremiah reminds us that the geopolitical outcomes are small compared with the deeper spiritual reality.

In this episode I share my thoughts about the powerful testimony of forgiveness that was displayed during the Charlie Kirk memorial. The temptation towards anger and bitterness is great, but our Savior calls us to a better way and that better way was displayed.

Free speech is a blessing but it is not what gives believers the authority or power to proclaim the Gospel. That authority comes from God Himself regardless of political or social conditions, favorable or not. Jeremiah ministered in a context that was hostile but that did not keep him from being faithful to his calling. In this episode I share my thoughts about how Jeremiah's ministry is a challenge to all of us to faithfulness.

In this episode I share some recent thoughts I've had about God's timing and his judgement. We tend to emphasize the mercy side but forget His mercy is not endless but there's a line that can be crossed.

When we think of spiritual warfare we often have images of exorcists and ghost hunters but this is not the reality of the situation. Rather spiritual warfare is the daily battles that take place in the heart's of individual men and women. In this episode I challenge us to consider that true battle line.

What are we to do about the evil in our world? We search for answers but simple ones are hard to find. The answer is always found in Jesus but we still wrestle through the mess of life. In this episode I offer some possible steps forward.

It's easy to fall into a trap of news consumption that really isn't. What we consume is a carefully crafted strategy of the evil one to warp our souls away from Christ. In this episode I share how we must examine our hearts to be sure we aren't allowing the culture to disciple our souls more than Scripture.

In this episode I share that as a follower of Christ we should never be hopeless. As a fan of a sports team it's easy to give up when it seems like the game is over, but in Jesus the believer has already won the victory and should live in that victory.
