Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.

The personal presence of God is not merely some "force" or "influence" that we seek. But, a personal, real, life-changing dynamic of a living God who abides in us, dwells among us, and wants to encounter us. An Encounter is a divine appointment with God. It becomes a specific time in your life when God "shows up"! Understand, that life is not just the ordinary, there is a supernatural side too - it is the element you need to make all the difference in your life. This Divine collision leaves a life-changing impact on you and every negative circumstance will be broken off your life. But, what if divine invitations are being given to us regularly and we overlook them or miss out for various reasons? In this episode of KEEP IT 100, we will expand the conversation on DIVINE ENCOUNTERS, share some crucial principles, and have a life-changing interview with Author of "When God Breaks In", Ben Hughes!

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.

Life is not meant to be mundane, ordinary, and uneventful...There's a demand for that Divine catalyst that sparks and fuels you toward your supernatural destiny, a redefining! We all have had redefining turning points in our lives. Of course, some can be negative and brought on by our own bad choices and the actions of others. But those pale in comparison to a turning point brought on by an encounter with God.

Your life is meant to have a supernatural side...This happens by us having an ongoing experience with God's Presence

When you have an ENCOUNTER, things that have held you back can't hold onto you. Things that weren't moving in your life begin to move! In this episode of Keep It 100, we are going in on the mesmerizing subject of god encounters and how this catalyst transforms a life and we will have an in-depth conversation with millennial pastor Laura Allred!

"Spiritual Warfare: Current Backlash, Coming Breakthroughs Pt.2" S2 Ep18 Aug 31, 2021

Show notes

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.

Spiritual warfare is vitally important in a world of spiritual intrigue and ignorance. With the increase of New Age thinking, Atheism, Wiccan and a growing interest in the Occult worldwide, the need for Christians to understand what spiritual warfare has never been greater. The vast majority of modern believers are peacetime Christians and are constantly surprised when they face opposition. Meanwhile, this cosmic battle is becoming an increasingly confusing topic to study, as Christians have a variety of views on the topic, some of which are biblical, but most of which are not. Yet, everyone in this world is under spiritual warfare, underscoring the fact that we are on a battleground, not a playground. The adversary of your soul is relentless in his pursuit of you. We need a solid theology of God and Satan, of good and evil, and how to wage successful war. Are you feeling dry, stuck or stagnant? In this episode of Keep It 100, we continue the dialogue on what may be the make or break flashpoint of modern faith.

"Spiritual Warfare: Help Me, I'm in a Battle! Pt.1" S2 Ep17 Aug 17, 2021

Show notes

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.

We live in a culture that is intrigued with the idea of supernatural activity. Meanwhile most of what many know about the spiritual and the supernatural they’ve learned from TV and the big screen. Hollywood’s interest in angels, demons, and the afterlife has dramatized spiritual warfare so much that it’s hard to know what’s real and what’s not. Not only is our culture intrigued by odd supernatural inquiry, but there also has been a rising interest in issues of social and global justice. As many people in our culture have begun to ask difficult questions about global oppression and systemic evil. Is there something more than the simplified answers we were given in our youth? What if both of the above cultural questions, those of demonic forces and systemic injustice could be discussed simultaneously through the lens of the Bible?

If you think spiritual warfare is irrelevant to you, you may already be losing the battle. In this episode of ‘KEEP IT 100’, we will chop it up on the challenging subject of spiritual warfare; how to fight, how to set free, and what you may have discounted that is the key!

"Connecting with God Pt.2: Conversation w/ Corey Russell" S2 Ep16 Aug 03, 2021

Show notes

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.

Across our modern culture there's an insatiable interest that has been growing in spirituality, transcendental meditation, Eastern centering. This rise in do-it-yourself spirituality and the crystal craze, is part of a larger barometer of a culture in search of a deeper connection…the substitutes for prayer creates an even worse problem. Sometimes the biggest steps are often the smallest steps, Many are taught on the come-up in their churches that prayer is the most powerful way to experience God. But few receive instruction or guidance in how to make prayer genuinely meaningful. Meanwhile E.M. Bounds says, “Prayers outlive the lives of those who uttered them; outlive a generation, outlive an age, outlive a world.” On this episode of Keep It 100 we are continuing the life-changing conversation of connecting with God and unleashing your devotional life and we get to hear from a modern intercessor, revivalist Corey Russell.

"Connecting with God Amidst the Chaos: The Secret Place Pt.1" S2 Ep15 Jul 20, 2021

Show notes

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.

It’s humanly impossible to just keep going without ever stopping to rest. Even machines need downtime for repairs and maintenance. The human body is no different, with the exception that we keep the machine running at the expense of physical, emotional and spiritual needs. You need quiet time, that uninterrupted silence that is so elusive and prized, to rest and renew.

While today’s world has many luxuries that are supposed to make life much easier, sometimes these things seem to make life more complicated. Many of us dream of living a worry-free life, uninterrupted by the chaos we face in our daily lives but this dream is often interrupted by reality. Where can we go to get our spiritual balance and be covered by the Presence of the Most High.

Having a daily quiet time with God is one of the most important spiritual disciplines you can master.

In this episode of KEEP IT 100, we will cover how to maximize the Secret Place and how to navigate an epic Quiet Time!

"Courageous Conversations: Handling Conflict Like a Boss Pt.1" S2 Ep13 Jun 22, 2021

Show notes

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.

A pandemic rolled in and showed us the best and worst of humanity. The conditions caused by this phenomenon allowed us to see the anxieties, injustice, misplaced priorities and discord. It also revealed the need to change and adapt more quickly than most thought possible, and reminded us what is really important. Human connection and it’s nemesis – conflict.

Conflict is all around us. People have different perspectives on how to solve a problem, or even what the problem is. They have different perspectives on goals and objectives and the best way to accomplish them. It’s human nature to avoid difficult conversations, partly because they’re difficult and partly because we’re worried that having them could make things worse. But, maybe we are worse off for not having these talks and keeping it in. In this episode of KEEP IT 100, we unwrap how to be brave in your conversations and how to negotiate conflict Kingdom style.

Show notes

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.

Socrates ONCE SAID, “The shortest and surest way to live with honor in the world is to be in reality what we would appear to be; all human virtues increase and strengthen themselves by the practice and experience of THEM!

- IT’S TRUE that integrity is doing the right thing even when no one is looking. TRUTH BE TOLD someone IS ALWAYS looking. ..THE QUESTION WE HAVE TO ASK OURSELVES IS …What IS your reputation among UNbelievers? How can anyone accept our faith if the way we live our life is in opposition to what we profess to believe?

-COULD IT BE THAT Our lives should ALWAYS reflect what we say we believe... COULD IT BE THAT - It’s the way you live, not the way you talk, that counts.

-In this episode of Keep It 100, we will talk about how to handle dishonor when it comes at your personally, what does honor look like in a day-to-day lifestyle and we will also hear from Cherie Bolz, and a wisdom window with Pastor Rich Wilkerson Sr.

"Conquering a Culture of Dishonor Pt.1" S2 Ep11 May 25, 2021

Show notes

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.

We live in a culture where demeaning and debasing are virtues instead of vices…the landscape of modern culture is littered with victims of dishonor…yet it’s clear that hating and defaming is not the culture of the kingdom, but the culture that causes Jesus to bounce...meanwhile, we have a mandate from heaven to honor. Making room for people according to the god-given honor they deserve…it is the currency of elevation...how you live this out does matter! In this episode of Keep It 100, we will cover the surrounding culture of dishonor, highlight the ultimate magnet of mighty works, and talk about how God shows up at a place of honor.
