The process of growth and becoming is painful. Think about a seed cracking open to grow, or a baby being born. Nothing about the process is warm and fuzzy. In this episode I’m going to bring you into my pain and darkness – not after I have passed through it and have a great story to tell – but right in the middle of it, as I am in the darkness of another cavern of my pit. Here’s the good news: I know the way to find the light and truth. I know that liberation and power awaits me. So listen in and stay tuned as this unfolds real time…  _____________________________________________ Welcome to THE CHURCH IS BROKEN podcast. Join Samuel Neider, a former pastor, on his journey of enlightenment as he shares his story of walking through darkness and despair to lay hold of the LIGHT that he could not find in 30 years of seeking, searching, and serving in the church. Samuel exposes why the church is broken and how the misaimed, man-made system fails at bringing light into the world and at producing transformation in the lives of the believers. Samuel will empower you, the listener, with the good news of living the KINGDOM LIFE, based on the TRUTH of what Jesus really taught and commissioned us to do - the TRUTH that has been veiled by the broken system of the church.

THE PITWALKER PODCAST IS HERE

There is a season for all things, and the season for my Church is Broken podcast has come to an end as I have faithfully delivered that specific message that was in my heart.  In this final episode of the podcast, I describe the shattering of the frame by which I have lived my life for over 40 years and the process of stepping into a new, expanded frame – one that feels more uncertain than I have ever experienced. Through this journey I’ve realized that my calling is to a broader audience – any man or woman who is seeking to grow, to become more than they are today.  As human beings created in the image of God, we all have an innate desire and drive to grow. But growth is not easy. In fact, growth is often painful because it requires that we break through barriers, obstacles, habits, thought patterns, bondage, ways of operating, ways of seeing the world, darkness, etc. that keep us from becoming the person we desire to be. All these things that hold us back are the “PIT” and the only way for us to become the person we’re created to be is by walking through our pit. There is simply no other way.  Over the past 20 years of my life I have experienced walking through my pit 100’s of times and my engineering brain coupled with my healer’s heart has developed a process for pit walking, based on universal truths, that leads to liberation, transformation, and spontaneous growth for anyone who is willing.  If you are a seeker and desire to become more than who you are today, then join me for THE PITWALKER PODCAST that launches on April 15, 2019.  

Final Episode – Expanding the Frame  | 050

On my family trip to Disneyland I  saw this sign at the gate: “HERE YOU LEAVE TODAY AND ENTER THE LAND OF TOMORROW YESTERDAY AND FANTASY.” As humans we have been conditioned to spend so much time in the past, in the future, and in fiction that we remain in a cycle that leads to nowhere. To get where we want to go our starting point must be rooted in the reality of now. _____________________________________________ Welcome to THE CHURCH IS BROKEN podcast.

The RV saga continues as I go to finalize the purchase and pick up my brand new RV trailer home. Everything looked beautiful on the outside, but then I discovered a problem “under the hood” as I looked under the trailer chassis and saw that it was covered with surface rust and corrosion. Find out what I decided to do, and what we all must do with the RUST IN OUR SOULS. _____________________________________________ Welcome to THE CHURCH IS BROKEN podcast.

RUST on the CHASSIS is a NO GO | 048

The pain, the darkness, the process... This week I entered into one of the most profound experiences of my life to date. Walk with me through my pit, all the way into the darkness, to a taproot of pain, and witness the power and beauty that I found as my son freed me from a generational cycle in my family as he showed me what it is to love. To know that I am loved. To know that I AM LOVE. _____________________________________________ Welcome to THE CHURCH IS BROKEN podcast.
