Episode 424: The Secret to Having a Faith on Fire Mar 15, 2022

Show notes

The first question that needs to be asked when speaking of perseverance is, "what am I persevering toward?" Is it toward God, and all that he has for me, or is it toward my own ambitions and ideals?
In this final part of the mini-series, Ben talks with Luke and Chad about perseverance in the life of a Christian; the need to 'repeat' the application of the principles in this series.
How do we focus on daily obedience, while keeping the big picture in mind?

Episode 423: Why Playing it Safe Kills Your Faith Feb 22, 2022

Show notes

Do we really believe in the gospel if we never take risks and act on it? Is there a possibility that a lack of spiritual risk in our lives is pointing to a false sense of faith - or at least a lack of it?
In this episode Ben and the regulars discuss the factors around spiritual risk. What it says about us, and what it does to us if we continue to play it safe.

Episode 422: Why Can't I Seem To Change? Feb 15, 2022

Show notes

Growth is absolutely necessary in our spiritual lives. In 1st Corinthians 3, the apostle Paul speaks of the need to move from "milk to meat" as we grow in our faith - it's not enough to simply stay where we are when the current of the world pulls us in the opposite direction.
In this episode the regulars (minus Luke, who is embarked on a journey) discuss and dissect the idea of growth and how it will play out for us if we embrace, or turn from it.

Episode 421: Your View of God Changes Everything Feb 08, 2022

Show notes

Author and pastor A.W. Tozer famously said, "what comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us."
In part two of our mini-series we continue discussing how we can have a faith that's on fire and how are view of God as a whole is often not where it should be, as is evidenced by the strange, irreverent way of talking about God often found in our christian culture.

Episode 420: Do I Have a Cultural Faith? Feb 01, 2022

Show notes

How do we know if our faith is authentic, or simply the synergistic result of those around us in a Christian culture? What happens when we assess our convictions, and realize that what we've been holding onto is not what we thought it was - that we're really "just riding the wave", so to speak.
This is the first of a multi-part series where the regulars discuss how we can have a faith that's on fire. They discuss the need to examine our own, individual walks with Jesus, and to approach God with complete honesty if your own faith is not where it should be.

Episode 419: Why We’re Losing the Battle Against Porn - W/ Jay Stringer Jan 25, 2022

Show notes

We often approach the problem with pornography in the church from an angle of either sin management, or shame management. Both seem to be ineffective in their results, and so it begs the question: is there a third way this issue can be addressed?
In this episode Ben and Luke talk to therapist, author, and speaker Jay Stringer about his book "Unwanted: How Sexual Brokenness Reveals Our Way to Healing."
Jay speaks about how unwanted sexual behaviors can actually serve as a roadmap, and as keys to finding restoration and breakthrough from habits and addictions in this area.
