Silver Linings of Quarantine Apr 06, 2020

We all need a silver lining in the midst of a dark time. I'm talking about some of my favorites from this COVID-19 pandemic, including: trends in podcasting, prayer, and spiritual awakening... the rise of my own anxiety and what I've learned about my faith... the increased compassion for the homebound, imprisoned, and minorites.

Also, my favorite blooper from the office was talked about on John Krasinski's new YouTube show. It's time stamped in the link below.

Sources of Anxiety w/ Steve Cuss Mar 30, 2020

Steve Cuss joins us with an extremely helpful perspective and practical insights into identifying some of the sources of our anxiety. Because they often come in similar patterns, it gives us the power to recognize them and work through them, especially in light of the Gospel. Steve is a pastor of a church near Denver Colorado, and has a book on leadership I highly recommend.

Have you ever wondered where anxiety begins? I take a look through the lens of biblical theology and psychology to trace the idea of anxiety into something we can all relate to.

An Anxious World Mar 20, 2020

The term anxiety is one that is used so widely and broadly it can almost become a place holder for just about any negative emotion or experience. It makes an important topic very convoluted and confusing. I have found incredible insight and wisdom from Family Systems Theory, otherwise known as Bowen Theory, which offers a great perspective on the idea of anxiety and its role in our lives. Although this is a secular psychological theory, I have found that it articulates some things really well that align with my Christian theology.

Books I mentioned for further reading: Failure of Nerve by Edwin Friedman

Fighting about Doctrine w/ Dr. Gerry Breshears Feb 19, 2019

Ep #18: What do you do with doctrinal disagreements within the church? How do you handle the controversial issues of our day? The 4 D's represent things that we are willing to "Die for, Divide for, Debate for, and Decide for." Dr. Gerry Breshears has been an academic advisor and personal mentor to my life, and his presence within the body of Christ crosses all kinds of boundaries that few people are able to do. His wisdom and spirit of humility and unity is worth learning from.

Can a True Scientist Really Believe in God? w/ Dr. Brian Miller Oct 16, 2018

It's been said that a little bit of science will lead you away from God, but a lot of science will bring you right back. That's certaily been true of the Journey for Dr. Brian Miller. With a PhD in physics from Duke University and his undergrad at MIT, his passion for science has been exposed to some of the brightest minds in the world. After losing his faith early in his studies, he found that the deeper he studied the more it brought him back to the plausibility of God.

It was during this time that Billy stopped praying, "Take it away," and started to pray "God, what are you doing in this?" The answers he received were incredibly moving. I know you are going to be encouraged and inspired by this story.

President Trump and Race in the Church Feb 14, 2018

Episode #5: Whenever I sit down with my friends, interesting conversations inevitably pop up. This episode comes out of a conversation with two of my favorite friends, Donnell Jones and Daniel Stephens. Both of them are pastors, just like me. Donnell is from Washington DC, and Daniel is from Midland, Texas. All of us have very different background stories but each of us deeply love Jesus and each other. It's because of this that we can talk about some of the most difficult topics of our day. Rather than taking a political stance for or against the current President, this conversation is really about the unity of the church and bringing the good news of Jesus into how we process the world and people around us.
