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

Show notes

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.

About "The Nonmicrowaved Truth":
How fast do you have to have "IT"? Our culture tells us to find a microwave to speed up the process. C.L. Whiteside, a man who sees and hears multiple perspectives through his life of coaching sports, serving in education, and attempting to conform to Christ, searches for the nonmicrowaved truth. C.L. gets that what’s cool and acceptable now, may not be cool and acceptable tomorrow—and most importantly, may not be what’s best.

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

Show notes

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

Show notes

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

Show notes

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. Is there such a thing as too much grace?

Cuz I'm Happy Oct 04, 2022

Show notes

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

Show notes

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?

Broken or Puzzle Pieces ... Sep 20, 2022

Show notes

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 episode dives into the fact that although we are all broken, that is not our final fate or form.
