Join Jacob and Ben for this longer episode and finale of The Single Focus series as they discuss a range of very exciting topics focused upon the awesome love and power of Jesus Christ working in and through us!

WVR has a vision to see the church of this generation rise up and become strong in Jesus Christ. This begins at hearing and responding to the calling of Christ at the individual level. Ben and Jacob have an energy filled, real, and open conversation on how we should pursue the upward calling of Christ to grow as men and women of God pressing daily into His Spirit to refine and hone us into His image!

Key Scriptures: Revelations 2:4, 3:17-22

Ben and Jacob pick-up where they left off two episodes ago and dive a little deeper into the idea of being dependent upon Christ. While, a topic like "Being Dependent" doesn't seem that interesting and it could be easy to scroll past in search of a flashier topic both Ben and Jacob felt led to keep pressing into this topic.

While, the title is boring, the content of this topic is one of the most exciting and life changing realities of living in Jesus! There is great joy in simple things! Join Jacob and Ben as they discuss leaning on Christ and the gift of dependence upon Jesus through a relationship with Him!

Key Scripture: Proverbs 3:5-6

Join Ben and Jacob as they discuss what Scriptures says about living dependent upon Christ and the example Jesus gave us through His words and actions. This should be an exciting topic for Christians as it is truly Christ calling us to live in complete openness and surrender before Him and trust Him with every area of our lives! When people are fully dependent and surrendered to Jesus He works amazing things through their lives!

Ben's Scripture Notes: John 15:4-6 and Psalm 139:23

Jacob's Scripture Notes: John 5:19 and Ecclesiastes 12:1-2

Bonus Scriptures: John 5:30 and John 8:28-29

Join Jacob and special guest Ben Gingerich as they launch an exciting mini-series on singleness and pursuing Jesus! The hope of War Vessel Radio is that listeners would get to experience real conversation that comes from the heart of believers who desire Christ!

This episode ignites the start of that vision as two friends converse about what it looks like to be building a foundation upon Jesus in singleness, seeing singleness as a gift, and recognizing that Jesus has given us everything we need to live triumphantly in every season of life regardless of age, maturity, problem, or circumstance (etc.) we find ourselves in!

We would love to hear feedback, comments, thoughts and questions from our listeners! Please email us at: [email protected]

Surprise! Bonus episode! Hi everyone, Jacob here! I hope you are encouraged by my first time preaching and are strengthened in your walk with Christ. All the glory goes to Jesus who is the Anointed One to preach the Gospel, heal the broken-hearted, and set the captives free! May each one of you be seen and called "trees of righteousness" in this generation because of the working of Christ in You!

I want to take a moment to honor and thank my parents who raised me to pursue and love Jesus, His Word, and all things perfect and right. I love and admire both of you and I am so thankful for everything you both have sacrificed, taught, blessed, and given me as I have grown-up. I love you Mom & Dad!

Also, thank you to my siblings for being the greatest little brothers and sisters an older brother can possibly imagine! I love to see how Jesus is leading each of you and growing you uniquely for His purposes!

Big thank you to everyone who has taken part in teaching, discipling, praying encouraging, and strengthening me in my walk with Christ over the years!

Thank you to friends who I have had many conversations with about Scripture, Jesus, and the unimaginable gift it is to be able to serve and love Jesus just as He did for us (and still does)! You guys are the best!

This week dive-in with Jacob as he opens up the second great commandment and from a personal side examines how it applies to family relationships with parents and siblings.

Today, in our culture it is critical to be seeking the love and healing of Jesus in our families and it starts at the personal level of each of our individual hearts. Families working in the unity of Christ, for the glory of Christ and desiring to love others as greater than themselves are a force to be reckoned with and are key to seeing tremendous change in the major brokenness of this world.

Allowing Jesus to have authority over our hearts and convict and teach us to love, honor, and respect our parents and siblings with His love in and through us is an amazing step in growing towards, marriage, raising children and leading in our communities and culture!

Thank you for listening and we hope you enjoy this episode! To comment, encourage, or ask questions please email Jacob at: [email protected]

Join Jacob as he dives into what it looks like to love Jesus and grow in relationship with Him by exploring the heart of God behind His great commandment. The importance of gaining an understanding of what Jesus truly desires as it pertains to obeying Him and how that can change our life and view of living for Him is foundational to deepening the power of Christ in us. Jacob, explores how his own life has begun to be changed through truth and intentionality in pursuing Christ with his heart, mind, and soul and how he desires to see this transformation be revitalized in the heart, mind, and soul of his generation as well.

Join Jacob as he launches this first episode of War Vessel Radio and introduces the inspiration behind the name, the podcast's vision and mission, and the podcast's message...proclaiming Jesus in all things! Get ready to laugh a little as Jacob lays out the theme of WVR and keeps it real by being focused but a tiny but awkward at times (okay maybe just a little more than a tiny bit awkward)!
