Diving Deeper: On Addiction and the Idol of Control Dec 12, 2023

Show notes

This episode we will revisit Becca's and Tyler's episodes with the hope of shedding some light on the wounds and lies they believed that led to patterns of self-destruction and idols that gave them illusions of control.

Whether you find yourself identifying with Becca or Tyler, or you're simply in need of a reminder of God's patience and grace, this episode will provide perspective on God’s heart toward you and how a right understanding of Him brings freedom and healing.

Overcoming Addiction and Demonic Oppression Dec 05, 2023

Show notes

Tyler’s story may be one of the crazier stories I’ve gotten to be a part of, but what I love about our God is that despite all the evil the enemy intended for Tyler, his life is marked by God’s pursuit of him. Tyler, opens up about the tragedies that have marked his life, his spiral into addiction, and his experiences with spiritual warfare. From childhood abuse to the loss of his mother, Tyler learned to find escape in substances. If you find yourself facing similar struggles, remember that victory in Christ is possible. Listen, find hope, and see how God can work wonders in the most unexpected ways.

Overcoming an Eating Disorder Nov 28, 2023

Show notes

Beneath the veneer of a successful college athlete, Becca grappled with anxiety and eating disorders, resorting to harmful coping mechanisms that included purging, overexercising, and substance abuse. The institutional and societal pressures around body image coupled with her desire to achieve pushed Becca to her breaking point. One encouragement I hope you hear is there is no spiritual bypass—the only way through is through, but God is right there in the the middle with you.

Diving Deeper: On Sorrow and Questioning God Nov 21, 2023

Show notes

In the previous episode, you heard the story of the Drake family as they faced their son's illness and ultimate passing, as well as the questions that stirred up within them. In this episode I want to help lift your face and turn your gaze from your immediate situation and toward the unseen realities — where you can find endurance even in the most difficult times. Jesus, in His infinite empathy, is present even in our most painful moments. You are never alone. He is always with us and for us.

Overcoming the Loss of a Child to Cancer Nov 14, 2023

Show notes

The Drakes, longtime members of The Village Church and active figures in our Recovery ministry, share the journey of their son Abram’s battle with neuroblastoma — a rare, aggressive form of childhood cancer. From the initial symptoms to the unthinkable loss of their young child, they find themselves asking some really tough questions of God. I have been so encouraged by the courage and belief in the promises of God, even when their faith was feeble. I pray our conversation encourages you in the Lord.

Diving Deeper: On Marriage, Divorce and Reconciliation Nov 07, 2023

Show notes

I'm joined by my lovely wife Lauren on this episode as we talk a bit more about the episodes with the Youngs and the Derdens. If you haven't listened to those episodes yet, I'd encourage you to go listen to them for context. Lauren and I discuss some of the lessons with think can be drawn out of their stories as well as evidences of the Lord's grace and movement throughout their stories. I pray that the Holy Spirit will reveal to you for the first time or remind you again of who you really are, and who you belong to. God bless you.

Overcoming Divorce and Dysfunction Oct 31, 2023

Show notes

Summary

I was once again so encouraged by my conversation with the Derdens. There is little about Josh and Domonique’s story that isn’t shocking — from how they met, to Domonique uncovering Josh’s affair the night before their wedding, to how the Lord ultimately mended their hearts and marriage. It’s a gut wrenching story of the damage caused by unrepentant sin but a testament to God’s unrelenting pursuit of us. I pray you are encouraged in the Lord through their story.

Overcoming in the Midst of a Broken Marriage Oct 24, 2023

Show notes

Aaron and Jill Young’s story is heart wrenching at times.They take us through their difficult experiences, from growing up in a broken family to their struggle to find identity and meaning and how those undealt with wounds led to heartache early in their marriage. While what led to the brokenness in their marriage is all too common today, what’s different is how they navigated the pain and aftermath of infidelity. If you are listening and find yourself in a similar situation or even on the road toward infidelity, I pray that you would heed the warnings of the Young’s and be encouraged by what the Lord did in their Marriage.

Diving Deeper: On Secrecy, Isolation, and Physical Pain Oct 17, 2023

Show notes

In this episode I wanted to take a look back at the previous episodes and dive a little deeper into what the Lord did in Boston and Katie’s lives and what He may have for you. In the quiet moments of our conversations, Boston and Katie spoke of the solace they found in the promises of God and the transformative power of practicing Christian disciplines. Their advice wasn't just practical, it was deeply necessary - keep memorizing and holding onto God's promises, and trust that they will bear fruit in due course.

Overcoming In Prolonged Suffering Oct 10, 2023

Show notes

Summary

Katie and Matt share their decade-long journey of battling with endometriosis, Lyme disease, multiple physical ailments and surgeries– not to mention the emotional toll of losing a loved one in the midst of it all. They've faced wave after wave or trials with courage – leaning on each other, their community, and an unshaken faith in who God says He is.

If you find yourself in similar circumstances, my prayer is that you would be encouraged – knowing that you are not alone. There is not only a God who sees and will sustain you, but a community of support available to you in the Church. Press into it.
