They explore the questions of what stands in the way of close relationships and how to we address those barriers.

Real and Genuine in a Superficial and Posing Generation - 251 Nov 23, 2023

Show notes

A Move of God in Our Generation - Part 8 | Jesus proclaimed himself to be the way, the truth and the life. He offered his followers the most authentic life, one which grappled with reality while being empowered to overcome. This makes it all the more tragic when Christians are accused, sometimes rightfully, of being frauds or hypocrites. In this episode, Gary Wilkerson and Joshua West discuss how believers’ authenticity is needed to reach a world desperately longing for something genuine.

Simple in an Overwhelmingly Complex Generation - 250 Nov 16, 2023

Show notes

A Move of God in Our Generation - Part 7 | Surveys in America show that around 80 percent of people are reporting exhaustion and burnout. Discussions rage back and forth about what the solution is, and Christianity has answers, but rates of stress and fatigue are often just as high or even higher in churches. This is wildly at odds with Christ’s invitation for the weary to find rest in him, so what are we missing? In this episode, Gary Wilkerson and Joshua West discuss how biblical rest leads to godly peace and how both are necessary for the church to see revival.

Peaceful in an Anxious Generation - 249 Nov 09, 2023

Show notes

A Move of God in Our Generation - Part 6 | What would it look like for believers to live with true shalom and offer that to an anxious world? Our modern culture is deeply troubled by strife and stress, so how do believers remain afloat in what often feels like stormy seas? In this episode, Gary Wilkerson and Joshua West discuss what biblical peace looks like, where it comes from and how Christians can spread it around themselves wherever they go. Such an otherworldly peace will almost certainly be what draws distraught people to God and brings revival to our nation.

It feels like a necessary evil of life in the current age, but what if the exact opposite may be essential for God to move? In this episode, Gary Wilkerson and Joshua West discuss when it’s appropriate to be known for our godly work and when our insidious desire for glorifying ourselves gets in the way. Gary and Joshua explore how we can discern what is in our own hearts when we’re recognized for the good we do in the world.

Radical Love in a Self-Centered Generation - 245 Oct 12, 2023

Show notes

A Move of God in Our Generation - Part 2 | What is love? It’s such a simple seeming question, and yet the answer is more complex than we might guess. In this episode, Gary Wilkerson and Joshua West discuss how believers should define love and how that understanding redefines our entire lives. Love that has its source in God will radically transform our hearts and minds and will inevitably spill out into all of our choices and interactions with other people. The love and loving truth of Christ is the example that God wants his children to reflect in a dark world.

Humility in a Self-Promoting Culture - 244 Oct 05, 2023

Show notes

A Move of God in Our Generation - Part 1 | Having the same mind as Christ means to adopt true humility, but what exactly does that look like? In this episode, Gary Wilkerson and Joshua West discuss what exactly it means to be a humble believer. They also explore why the virtue of humility is absolutely essential for the modern church to see a major move of God. The Father will not bless any church movement that glorifies itself or exalts believers over the Lord. It’s only when we truly focus on God’s glorification and submit ourselves to his ways that he will bring revival.
