Don't Miss the Main Thing Mar 04, 2024

Show notes

In this week's podcast, John shares his most important message of the year. He reveals how too many believers have missed the essence of Christianity. We were created for deep intimacy with God. That alone is the epicenter of the Christian life—not spiritual disciplines, social justice, ancient theology, or community, as good as those things may be. The central invitation is to know God rather than simply know a lot about him or do a lot for him. The recovery of this daily relational intimacy was never meant to be optional. It is the essence of everything.

The "All In" Life Feb 26, 2024

Show notes

There is no way to partially follow Jesus. In this week's podcast, John and Allen reveal the danger of divided affections, or what they call the "Jesus And" life. This approach never works— because we were created for Jesus alone to be at the center of every part of our lives. Discover why many settle for less than God intended—and how we can experience more by going through the "second wardrobe door". The "All-In" life isn't just the safest place in the world, it's actually the only safe place in the world.

How to Risk the Real Feb 05, 2024

Show notes

In this second half of this podcast series, John and Allen dive even deeper into the clash between the real and the artificial, explaining how it is intensifying and why no one can remain neutral in this world of competing realities. They offer practical ways to navigate the chaos and choices before us by sharing the Five Tenets of the Real and Five Lies of the Artificial from Allen's new book, Risk the Real: How to Defy the Rise of the Artificial.
In The Matrix, Morpheus states, "There is a difference between knowing the path and walking the path." That's even more true here. Our goal isn't just greater awareness—but to actively step into the story God has created us for at this moment in time. Only then can we risk well for what matters most as we defy the artificial and pursue the real.

The Rise of the Artificial Jan 29, 2024

Show notes

Every aspect of our lives is being invaded by the artificial. Yet we miss what’s at stake if we assume it's inevitable, neutral, or simply limited to AI. John and Allen reveal how the artificial actually has roots that go all the way back to Eden, when the serpent seduced Adam and Eve with a counterfeit narrative. These ancient roots entangle us in more ways than we realize.

The more we embrace the artificial, the more we find ourselves in a "Partificial Daze"—a haze of anxiety, exhaustion, and addiction that numbs us to what matters most.

Allen's new book, Risk the Real: How to Defy the Rise of the Artificial, offers a reality reorientation. Because there is only one antidote to the artificial—a wholehearted pursuit of the real where we embrace God as the Creator of reality and align with his intentions for us.
