From Nothing to Something: Family Matters Oct 15, 2024

Flawed family legacies have lasting impact on all who are associated with them, like King David's family. Looking at King David's life, let's reflect on our own families and the role that faith plays in navigating through these relationships. Let's bless our families instead of adding to the crazy cycles. True familial love may require tough choices, especially when family values clash with faith.

From Nothing to Something: Choose Your Outlet Carefully Oct 01, 2024

When you go from nothing to something there are outlets the world encourages you to tap into. This episode challenges you to evaluate the outlets you're choosing and figure out the why. Looking at Saul who went from being a man of low status to becoming a powerful king, we share common reasons today for choosing bad outlets. King Saul's life serves as a cautionary lesson on how harmful outlets ruin us and the importance of choosing them carefully.

From Nothing to Something: To Seek Vengeance Or Not Sep 24, 2024

Think of a time when someone wronged you or mistreated you. When you've come from nothing to something, this hits especially hard because you don't want to go backward. Is the satisfaction that vengeance brings enough to keep you being "something"? Often, the reasons we want vengeance are rooted in the wrong mindset. David and King Saul give us a snapshot into the dos and don'ts of seeking vengeance. The sweetest vengeance is highlighted, and it's something we all need to focus on in this episode.

Do Skeletons Control You? Jul 30, 2024

We all have skeletons in our closets (things we're ashamed of, embarrassed about, things we want to bury and act like they never happened). If you think you don't have any skeletons, I can guarantee you that someone close to you does. Our skeletons are disgusting, but how we deal with them shapes our view and walk in life. They may lead you to think you're a fraud or that you are better than you are. This episode looks at someone who became an expert at dealing with skeletons and will show the importance of having some go-to anthems to turn to.

Beyond Comics & TV ... This Is Real & Better Jul 23, 2024

Who doesn’t love a good movie, TV show, or book? It’s entertaining, it keeps our attention, and it oftentimes gets us to place ourselves in a character’s position. The Bible has this same effect (if you actually read it). The book of Judges is one of those books of the Bible you may not be very familiar with, but it contains a collection of historical events that record superhero-like men and women empowered by God. It’s better than a comic book or a great TV show, and it contains events that really happened! Like all the greats, it contains impactful lessons.

That Ain't Love: Wrestling With Culture, Scripture, and Compassion Jun 25, 2024

It is a major struggle to balance personal beliefs with societal expectations, particularly regarding “love is love.” This episode challenges the notion of accepting behaviors that contradict biblical teachings, emphasizing the importance of standing firm in one's faith and adhering to the commandments of God.

Satan Doesn't Make You Bad, but the Spirit Makes You Good Jun 18, 2024

On a scale of 1 to 100, 100 being the best, how would you rate yourself in goodness? The phrase "He/she is such a good person" is pretty common, and there is usually a common understanding when it is said about someone. But what makes someone "good" in God's eyes? Sometimes we blame the devil for tempting us into not being good when we should be looking at some commonalities we share with every single person on earth. Looking at those commonalities can give us a new appreciation for God's great grace.

New Age Golden Calf Jun 11, 2024

God's Old Testament people, the Israelites, chose to create an idol in the form of a golden calf and worship it. This may sound stupid to us, but at times we are just like the Israelites. History repeats itself all too often. Our culture has made an idol out of having fun and getting lit; the Israelites could relate. Is getting lit the new golden calf? What golden calves are you creating in your life? This episode discusses why we create idols and the consequences of them.

REPLAY: Rule #2: Stop Planting Garbage Dec 26, 2023

Here's a personal favorite episode from C.L. that first ran in November 2022. Enjoy while we're on break!

Another passage from Galatians 6 that C.L. has a tattoo of is a reminder to stop planting garbage. Destruction comes when we plant the wrongs things and our focus is in the wrong place. Weeds can grow almost anywhere; and especially in our culture, they will be prevalent. Godly growth takes time and intentionality.

Happiness Is Overrated Nov 28, 2023

Chasing happiness can have you bouncing from one thing to another. How strong is your desire to be happy? The book of Philippians has some outstanding lessons and shows us there is something greater than happiness. Believe it or not, we as Christians can see why happiness is overrated and where to find something greater than worldly happiness.

Improve Your Conversations the Jesus Way Nov 21, 2023

Observing different types of conversations is interesting. Sometimes people talk too much, and others want to avoid talking to them. Sometimes people seem as if they don't know what to say at all.

This conversation can help you notice some things about yourself.

Should This Person Be a Pastor? Oct 24, 2023

Do you know what qualifies or disqualifies someone from being a pastor? "A pastor is to be above reproach." What does this mean? Is someone disqualified from being a pastor if they've had a crazy past, gotten a divorce, or have a wild family? Our culture has opinions, messages, and feelings on who should be a pastor, but we have to look at God's Word to give us the truth. This episode looks at some biblical truths and cultural untruths around the qualifications for being a pastor. This month is Pastor Appreciation Month, and we thank God for the awesome leaders we have in these positions.

There are some characteristics that seem to be common in God-fearing women and one characteristic ALL should strive to emulate whether you are a woman or a man. This episode examines those characteristics and highlights how Jesus, the perfect man, shared commonality especially with one of these traits.

Bruh, Be a Man! Sep 19, 2023

You don't have to be a man to appreciate this episode, but think about what characteristics you think make a man. What does a REAL man look like? There are some characteristics and traits that are up for debate. Regardless of that, a Christian man should have characteristics that are different from a "worldly" man. Of course, we can always learn something from the most manly man ever—Jesus.

Listen Up! What Would Paul Say to Us? Sep 12, 2023

The apostle Paul was known for sending letters to churches and people. His letters called them out, encouraged them, and spoke on cultural issues. Some have said that America could use a letter from Paul reminding us of a few things. What do you think Paul would say to the churches in America and to people who claim to be Christians? This episode takes a guess at what Paul may have said to America based off what he wrote to other churches and people.

Silent Killers Sep 05, 2023

Don't let your faults define you. Don't try to justify your wrongs. Instead of acting like your negative behaviors, responses, and choices don't exist, be aware of how they can be silently killing you. This doesn't have to be the case and should NOT happen to any follower of Christ no matter how bad or ugly the crime or offense was. There is a compelling reason we can thrive as Christians despite our failures, traumas, and appalling actions, and it starts with our God and Savior.

They Want You to Keep It on the Low Aug 15, 2023

The media would rather publicize something other than Jesus. As Christians, should we follow this trend? If we want to get rid of our blindness and see the truth, we will need to take lessons from a beggar who knew keeping it low key was not the answer to his problems. Striving for spiritual growth along with finding confidence in the message proclaimed in the Bible gives us the confidence to move away from low key.

Fueling on Feelings Aug 08, 2023

Being fueled by our feelings can lead us astray. Feelings are a part of life, and it's beneficial to be in tune with them properly. But for Christians, there is something we can be inspired by that is more trustworthy than our feelings.

Oh, So That's What You Calling It Aug 01, 2023

The world has changed the name of certain sins to try and make them seem like they are not sins. Switching names is a tactic used to confuse and manipulate people to act a certain way.

The worst kind of friend is one who is really an undercover enemy. A person may be a friend in one aspect and an enemy in another, but how do you distinguish the difference?

Socially Contagious Jun 13, 2023

Is it OK to build a relationship on lies? Well, I guess it depends, because people are now being pressured to call a man a woman and vice versa if that's what a person wants. Culture wants to dictate our feelings and attitudes and will go to great lengths to do this. There are some movements that are geared toward making us allies with the wrong groups and distancing us from our most valuable and important relationship. God wants to dictate our feelings and attitudes as well, and this episode reminds us of the great lengths that he went through for us all.

Christphobic Jun 06, 2023

LGBTQ+ Pride Month is here. This group has done an effective job of gaining more rights, standing proud for what they believe in, and pushing their agenda. This has gone so far that many people do not want to be called homophobic. At the same time, more and more groups and agendas are trying to get rid of Christ and the gospel. Believe it or not, there's something people should fear more than being called homophobic, and that is being Christphobic.

In today's world, should we be quiet about our allegiance to Christ? Is it easy for others to see that we are followers of Jesus? Some of us are quiet about being Christian—we're "in-the-closet Christians" because we don't want to "offend" anyone or be canceled, even though we may say or think we've been hiding in the closet for legit reasons. Let's take a real look at if you've been an in-the-closet Christian.

True or False? "I Can Do All Things . . ." May 16, 2023

Philippians 4:13 is a popular passage: "I can do all things through him who strengthens me." But it's also an often misunderstood passage and ends up being misused, leading many to rely on themselves. To understand, we need to focus on who is meant by "him" in the passage. And you might be surprised to learn where the biblical author was when he wrote this sentence and why he was so content.

True or False? This Is Prescription, Not Description May 09, 2023

How do you know if something is a description or a prescription? This can be confusing to decipher in the Bible. But believe it or not, most people determine if it's prescription or description based off a lack of understanding or a hope to do something that actually goes against God's Word. The Bible tells us what is good and what is bad, but we have to actually look at what it says to confirm these facts.

And especially for those trying to make a name for themselves and capture people's attention, it's hard to navigate through a gate that is small.

Black History Month: No Whitewashing, Just Facts Feb 28, 2023

The way America decided to tell the story of how the country was built and discovered would be deemed as being "whitewashed." The final episode in this four-part series for Black History Month examines how the recording of American history compares to God's Word and its history—there are glaring differences.

Black History Month: "They" Get All the Good Credit Feb 21, 2023

One of the beefs with Christianity is that some feel as though ONLY European fingerprints are all over today's version of Christianity and that only white reformers and theologians have a say. Should Martin Luther, who happened to be of European descent, receive as much credit as he does? This episode explores and challenges the idea that Europe is the only influence for Christianity. Spoiler alert: It's not! There's something we all need to be aware of that we receive credit for.

Black History Month: It Starts With Those Closest Feb 07, 2023

This is the first in a four-part series in honor of Black History Month. Let's not shy away from this but use God's Word to reflect, challenge, convict, and liberate us when needed. No matter our race or ethnicity, there are some major lessons to learn from America's history. Be leery: we do not repeat history by commission or omission. We should not only look at American history but also at the Bible. The problems we face are oftentimes a lot closer and intimate than we may realize.

Highlight Reel This Jan 31, 2023

Social media has made it even more apparent that we are fascinated with highlights. We can't just blame it on this era though, because it's something that has always intrigued our human nature. It's time to check ourselves to make sure we are not coveting or envying; this would make us undercover haters. The highlights aren't going anywhere, but we can get a better grasp of how to handle them by looking at a young man in the Bible.

Which Side Are You Picking? Jan 24, 2023

Family over everything is a motto many of us are taught to follow, but what if our family members are wrong? Do we have to side with them? To add to this, picking a side isn't always easy—especially when it goes against the culture or against the majority. The Bible has some examples of both—of those who picked incorrectly and correctly. The idea that a person has to pick Christ is examined, and we look at who really does the picking.

Who Looks Out for the Strong? Jan 10, 2023

Too often those who are deemed as strong get overlooked and don't have many places to turn to when they are dealing with a lot. Who counsels the counselor? If you are often leaned on, you have to know how to recharge. If you want to be stronger, take a look at how the strongest person ever, Jesus, continuously and intentionally became stronger.

You Expect This From Who? Jan 03, 2023

New Year's resolutions are built on expectations, and expectations change everything. Ever seen someone who holds everyone else to the fire but then makes excuse after excuse for themselves? Or how about those who just have no clue what "good" actually is? Both these thought processes ingrain our minds from time to time. The Bible has some great lessons on what to expect from ourselves and shows us what our expectations should be.

God Ain't Santa Dec 27, 2022

The idea of Santa Claus is intriguing and loved because Santa is all about giving us what we want. God, on the other hand, is not like this; God's desire is to give us what we need. With Christmas passing us by, C.L. takes a look at some mindsets and desires we want to check. The wrong Christmas "spirit" can have us in a Christmas funk. Our God/Savior > Santa Claus

Put the Bible to the Test Like You Think You Do Other Things Dec 20, 2022

There is a good amount of frustration, distrust, and misunderstanding surrounding the Bible. The Bible has some very intriguing warnings and insights though. There are some common reasons people don't trust the Bible that C.L. addresses. Have you ever put the Bible to the test and actually read it so you can't be manipulated, tricked, and/or lied to? We put so many other things to the test, but for some reason, we don't do this with the Bible and wrestle with what is actually true.

Everyone Can't Be Batman Dec 13, 2022

"You need to be a leader!" is a message we hear all the time in our culture. Lots of people don't even know when to lead or when to take a back seat. All of us have different roles and different hats we wear. As you listen to this episode, evaluate your ability to handle these different roles by looking at some people in the Bible who thrived and struggled with their leadership and sidekick roles. You'll quickly realize that everyone can't be Batman and there are times each of us needs to take a different role.

Another passage from Galatians 6 that C.L. has a tattoo of is a reminder to stop planting garbage. Destruction comes when we plant the wrongs things and our focus is in the wrong place.

Rule #1: Show No Love, Love Will Get You . . . Nov 15, 2022

How much do you love things of this world? What do you love about this world? Our culture promotes and encourages us to become "worldly." Not falling prey to that concept is so important to C.L. that he has a Bible verse tattooed on him that focuses on not showing love to the wrong things. Listen to why he is leery about falling in love with something most are not even concerned about. This is the first of a three-part series dissecting the Bible verses C.L. has tattooed on his arm.

Does the Book of "Me" Match the Bible? Nov 08, 2022

There are many reasons why people don't give the Bible a chance. One reason is that their first encounter with the Word of God is not with actual Scripture but with those who claim to follow Jesus and his teachings in the Bible. If someone interacted or looked at you, would they see the Bible in you? This episode explores why some may or may not view you as a Christian.

I Don't Recommend . . . Nov 01, 2022

What's the price you're willing to pay in order to hear a sermon that relates to you and keeps your attention the entire time? C.L. gathers information from spiritual leaders of different backgrounds and denominations to see how they would respond to a person who thinks the sermons are boring and unrelatable. C.L. has noticed that pastors rarely recommend other spiritual leaders for their members to listen to. Why is that? This episode looks at the reason why.

Is There Such a Thing as Too Much Grace? Oct 25, 2022

Have you ever thought to yourself, "I wouldn't mind if this person burned in hell"? The recent Netflix series on a serial killer has made this a talked-about topic. It's easy to feel like you are a lot better than a serial killer, but there is a monster inside all of us. Even Jeffrey Dahmer wondered if God could forgive him.

How self-aware are you as an individual? Self-awareness may be the greatest characteristic people lack today. It's to the point where some people are flat-out delusional.

Cuz I'm Happy Oct 04, 2022

Our culture consistently tells us to pursue happiness. There is a godly happiness, and then there is a worldly happiness. We often get the pursuit of pleasure mixed up with the pursuit of happiness. There's a noticeable difference in earthly happiness and godly happiness; godly happiness is a fruit of the Spirit that is noticeable especially in difficult situations.

Riches to Rags Sep 27, 2022

The American Dream is all about going from rags to riches. The story of Joseph in the Bible is one of those feel-good narratives we love becaue he ends up being wealthy and prosperous despite some major hardships. Moses, on the other hand, lost his royalty and ended up being blessed in other ways—he went from riches to rags. Which life would you rather have when comparing these two men?

Is your life broken and lost? Or is your life part of a bigger plan? Too many people answer based off their past, when in reality God has shown he can take any type of past or background and use it for his glory.

This is the final episode in our three-part series on the Parable of the Lost Son, which is found in the book of Luke.

However, the love of the father can change lives and bless us in a way that the world wants us to overlook.

We're Friends, Right? . . . Aug 16, 2022

Friends should be able to talk about the most important things in life; our Christian brothers and sisters should be in this category of friends. For whatever reason, we at times avoid discussing God's Word with our friends. Should talking about God be a point of emphasis with our friends even if we know we believe the same thing? Comfortability plays a factor, and there are ways we can all become more comfortable talking about God and his truths in "friendly settings."

I Can't Say It Jun 28, 2022

Can you admit when you are wrong? Can you say, "I'm wrong"? Or, "I confess ___"? All of us have been wrong before, and at times we will go to great lengths to conceal our wrongness. There are dangers in not seeing our faults. And although we don't desire to be wrong, being wrong can be okay because of Jesus' grace, mercy, and love.

Maximize Summer Jun 21, 2022

What should be your main focus this summer? C.L. looks at a summer insect you'll probably come into contact with sooner or later to show us how we should be embracing this summer. The change of season is looked forward to by a lot of people for many different reasons, and sometimes summer is the best time to catch up on sleep. However, we have to be intentional about making the most out of our summer or it will just pass us by.

C.L. mentions the new book by Time of Grace lead speaker, Pastor Mike Novotny, titled "What's Big Starts Small." You can order your copy on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3NUW3ZX

Mention This Sin Jun 14, 2022

"They mention this sin but don't mention that sin." Do some avoid speaking about certain sins because they're afraid, or is there a good reason not to bring up that sin? When someone is living in a particular sin, how should their sin be addressed? And how should they feel if their sin is brought to light? Jesus was masterful in addressing these issues.

S-E-X: Part 2 May 24, 2022

Since God created us to be sexual beings, does that mean pornography is okay? Porn is a taboo topic that some Christians wouldn't admit to knowing anything about. But in private, some are members of the porn community. It wouldn't be a real discussion about porn if we didn't talk about masturbation too. This is the second episode of a three-part series exploring God's nonmicrowaved truth of how to have the most enjoyable sex life. This episode discusses whether that sex life includes porn and masturbation a little, a lot, or not at all.

Our culture makes it seem like God wants Christians to be bored, to never have fun, and only to have sex to reproduce. In reality, God is very pro-sex. However, since sex permeates throughout our culture and the world's manual on how to have a good sex life is full of half-truths and lies, we should look at the facts and what God's Word says in order to have the best and most enjoyable sex life possible while also avoiding dangers and consequences of living outside his order.

Be Careful What You Call It . . . Feb 15, 2022

In our culture we are very quick to give lables and titles to things and people to a fault. Information isn't about being accurate anymore, it's about being first and sharing whatever comes to your mind.

So does that mean that if something bad happens to a minority, it was racist—not necessarily.

Lawn Care Nov 02, 2021

Special care is needed to make a lawn look beautiful because weeds can grow anywhere. That's easy to understand, but it's harder to grasp when it comes to our spiritual lawns. How we respond to the Word of God is illustrated by Jesus in the parable of the sower. What type of spiritual lawn do you have?

Food for Thought Oct 19, 2021

Our minds are being fed each and every day. Are you aware of what they're being fed though?

Arranged Marriage Oct 12, 2021

One of the craziest, most illogical relationships in this world is marriage because it is supposed to be for a lifetime despite people changing and having the ability to hurt you like no one else in this world.

Gifts From Hell Oct 05, 2021

If a gift came from your enemy, you'd be leery like most people in accepting it. In our culture we care more about the gift and less about the source of the gift though.

Titles don't matter if the story doesn't match it. If someone asked you, "Who do you worship and call god?" how would you describe him? Just because you call something god doesn't mean it's the almighty and all-powerful God (of the Bible). There are tons of gods out there begging to be worshiped.

Careful What You Ask Jul 27, 2021

There's nothing like getting what you ask for but then coming to the realization that you should not have asked for it. This regret can be avoided, and we should always be careful what we ask for. However, there's an art and a specific way we can learn from Christ on how we can carefully ask.
