#049 - Jonathan Philby | What Worship Is & What It Isn't Sep 13, 2021

Show notes

What exactly is worship?
Do we have to worship as a group, or can we worship alone?
My friend, Jonathan Philby, joins us today to talk about the bigger topic of worship. Jonathan recently co-led a multiple week class on the subject of worship and brings much of his study to our conversation today.
With the HOPE of Jesus Christ, we can freely worship Him, and Jonathan provides some great insight into some potential misunderstandings of worship.

#048 - "Never Forget" - 20th Anniversary of 9/11 Sep 10, 2021

Show notes

Do you remember where you were on 9/11/2001?
I do. I was working for an airline and we had just sent out the first flight of the day. It was a normal day, until it wasn't. You know the story.
That was 20 years ago. America has seemed to lose its way since then.
My prayer is that we will heed God's warning to Israel from 2 Chronicles 7:14.
Please share this podcast. Like it & review it. I want to spread the HOPE of Jesus through my podcast as far as I can--with your help.

#047 - Autumn Lucretia & Karrah Windau | "The Checklist to Get to Heaven" Aug 29, 2021

Show notes

Autumn and Karrah, lifelong friends, join us in this episode and they will be sharing about how they worked so hard, and stressed so much, about fulfilling their mental checklist of things that will get them to heaven.
It wasn't until they both met a co-worker who shared about God's grace through faith in Jesus that will get them to eternal life--not works, that they found true freedom from the bondage of works and guilt.
Autumn and Karrah both had a background in Catholicism, yet they couldn't explain why they did the things they did in Catholic school and Catholic mass. Then they found that they could go directly to the Word of God themselves to see what God had to say to them.
You will want to be sure to listen to this episode and share it with everyone you know!

#046 - Shannon Bream | Hear “The Women of the Bible Speak” Apr 17, 2021

Show notes

Shannon Bream joins us for a Conversation of Hope about her new book, “The Women of the Bible Speak.” Shannon writes about sixteen women in the Bible ranging from a prostitute to a murderer—from a queen to the mother of Jesus. Each woman has a unique, and often outrageous, story of how God used them as a part of his plan. Some are even a part of the lineage of Jesus Himself.
Have you ever felt like God couldn’t, or wouldn’t, use you because you were not up to His standards? Well, the women in Shannon’s book are proof that God looks at the heart.
Listen in and hear Shannon discuss “The Women in the Bible Speak.”
Shannon Bream is the host of “Fox News @ Night with Shannon Bream,” author of two books, and legal correspondent for the Fox News channel.

#045 - Michael McDowell | NASCAR 2021 Daytona 500 Winner Apr 10, 2021

Show notes

In the final lap of the first race of the 2021 season, Michael McDowell's strategy was to wait for Brad Keselowski to make his move on leader Joey Lagano. When that happened, Michael made his move and avoided their crash to take the checkered flag at the 2021 Daytona 500.
Racing has been a big part of Michael's life since he began with BMX bikes. He has a conversation with us about the careful balance between his NASCAR career and his marriage and family.

#044 - Dean Inserra | The Unsaved Christian Mar 13, 2021

Show notes

Our nation is "a nation under God" in word and many consider themselves "Christians", yet know little about the saving grace of Jesus Christ.
My guest is Pastor Dean Inserra, author of the book, "The Unsaved Christian". Dean is the founding and lead pastor of CITYCHURCH, where he leads the vision and preaching.
In this episode, we talk about Cultural Christianity and truly following Christ. There is a distinction between the two and the differences are eternal. Going to church, holy communion, being a good person, treating others well, and even volunteering at church does not send you to heaven.
The Bible makes it very clear that there is nothing that WE can do to earn our eternity with God. Sin separates us from God (since Adam & Eve) and sin's effect on us is death. Only One with no sin can redeem us from hell, and His name is Jesus.
Be sure to listen to my conversation with Dean Inserra!

#041 - Zach Tinman | Perseverance in Your Calling Feb 13, 2021

Show notes

College basketball is winding down and soon, March Madness will be here! In this episode, our guest, Zach Tinman, shares his love for the game of basketball. His dream was to one day play college ball, but he first needed to overcome some obstacles. Lack of playing time and his height were just a couple of those obstacles, and year after year he needed to make a big decision--persevere and follow his calling, or quit. The latter seemed the easiest, but Zach wasn't willing to give up on his dream.
Today, Zach is playing college basketball. He joins us to share the struggles as an athlete and how he refused to allow daily challenges to define him.
Although we are discussing basketball in Zach's story, this message is for anyone who is tired of the challenges, disappointments, and frustrations in life. This story is about perseverance and trusting that God's calling in your life is there for a reason---and don't give up!

Show notes

When Belinda Ernst took her first medical mission trip to Haiti, she had no idea how God would use that trip to change the trajectory of her family.
