• Tweaking God: The Danger of Doing It Our Way EP. 240
    Jun 1 2025

    Tweak God: The Danger of Doing It Our Way. In this episode, I tackle a tough but essential question: Does the end justify the means? Using biblical accounts from Abraham and Sarah’s plan with Hagar to Moses striking the rock, the Tower of Babel, and the tragedy of Nadab and Abihu, we unpack the dangers of tweaking God’s commands for the sake of expedience, emotion, or modern relevance. It’s easy to rationalize disobedience when things “work out,” but does God see it that way? The answer is a sobering no.

    God isn’t impressed with our programs, personalities, or polished presentations, He wants obedience. And not just obedience when it's easy or convenient, but especially when our human logic says, “There’s got to be a better way.” In this episode, I urge listeners to resist the cultural tide that celebrates relevance over reverence. This is about more than tradition, it’s about holiness, trust, and a willingness to do God’s will, God’s way.

    Whether you’re wrestling with church trends, your role in ministry, or tough personal decisions, this message is a challenge to build a “book, chapter, and verse” foundation in every part of life. Because no matter how good the goal looks, if we abandon God’s path to get there, we’re just building our own Babel.

  • Does It Really Matter What You Believe? EP.239
    Jun 1 2025

    In this episode, I ask a piercing question: Does it really matter what you believe? It’s not about picking fights or stirring controversy for its own sake, it’s about grounding our lives in something more stable than feelings, tradition, or popular opinion. We often hear well-meaning ideas like “just be sincere,” or “all roads lead to heaven,” but Scripture points to a different standard; one that demands clarity, conviction, and a return to book, chapter, and verse.

    I take you through a series of biblical passages that reveal the dangers of drifting, the insufficiency of sincerity, and the false comfort of modern spiritual pluralism. I’m not the judge, Christ is, but I’m here to report what the Judge has already said. Whether we’re talking about morality, denominationalism, or what it means to truly follow Jesus, this episode calls us back to Scripture as the final word.

    If you’ve ever wondered why so many different “Christian” teachings contradict each other, or if you’ve felt pressure to “just get along” at the expense of truth, this is your invitation to reconsider. Because yes—it absolutely matters what you believe.

  • Trading the Hamster Wheel for a Rock-Solid Life EP.238
    May 25 2025

    In this episode, we dig deep into Hebrews 4:12 and the piercing power of God’s word. I reflect on the kind of peace that’s more than just poetic, it’s foundational, transformative, and steady even in life’s hardest storms. We explore the tension many feel: they want a better life, but see the Bible as too strict, too burdensome. But what if the true burden is running the hamster wheel of modern life with no deeper joy or direction?

    I’m not offering quick fixes or shallow encouragement here. Instead, I’m urging persistent progress, not perfection. From baby steps of self-discipline to meatier challenges of the heart, God’s word shapes us if we’ll let it. This episode walks through what it means to build a life on Scripture, not as a Sunday ritual, but as a 24/7 transformation. We tackle doubt, grief, purpose, and growth, through personal examples, Scripture, and some real talk about what Christian maturity actually looks like.

    If you’re tired of surface-level spirituality or looking for something deeper than routine religion, this one’s for you. Let’s talk about building not a shack of belief, but a mansion of faith.

  • Guardrails of Grace: Living Set Apart in a Blurred World EP. 237
    May 25 2025

    In this episode, I dive deep into one of the most foundational, yet increasingly controversial, teachings in Scripture, God’s call for separation. Using 2 Corinthians 6:14–7:1 as our anchor, we explore what it means to live a life that is truly set apart, not in isolation from the world, but in distinct fellowship with Christ. I unpack the spiritual boundaries God draws, not as barriers to our freedom, but as guardrails to our joy, peace, and holiness. We talk about how the lines that once defined morality and truth have been blurred by decades of compromise, and how Satan’s subtle erosion still creeps into churches and families today.

    This isn’t a message about condemnation, it’s about clarity. About living intentionally on the straight and narrow, not to impress the world, but to honor the God who calls us His sons and daughters. I share the hard truths about unequal partnerships, the danger of softening biblical lines, and the beauty of walking in holiness without losing compassion. If you've felt tension between loving others and standing firm in truth, this episode is for you. Let’s get real about compromise, and recommit to being a light that doesn’t dim under pressure.

  • Sacred Places: Restoring the Temple Within EP. 236
    May 18 2025

    In this episode, I dive into one of the most striking moments in Jesus' ministry: the cleansing of the temple. We often picture Jesus as gentle and compassionate, and rightly so, but here, we see a Savior with a whip in hand, turning over tables and driving out corruption. Why? Because His Father’s house had lost its purpose. What began as sacred space had become a marketplace, a shell of what it was meant to be.

    But this isn't just about first-century Jerusalem. It’s about us, our lives, our churches, our hearts. We too can get so busy doing religious things that we miss the heart of God. Jesus doesn’t just drive things out; He makes room for what’s meant to be there, things such as prayer, healing, holiness. So, I ask: What would Jesus drive out of your life if He walked in today?

    This episode calls us to honest reflection and bold restoration. We’re not just avoiding sin, but we are building something sacred. Something fruitful. Something real. Because in the end, it’s not about looking alive, it’s about being alive in Christ. Let’s restore the temple.

  • How Satan Attacks Experienced Christians EP. 235
    May 18 2025

    In this episode, we shift our focus from how Satan targets young Christians to how he wages war on those of us who have been in the faith for decades. This message is for the seasoned saints, the veterans of the walk, the ones who have logged decades in church pews, Bible studies, and daily devotionals. I’m talking to those who might think, “I’ve seen it all” because that’s exactly where the enemy slips in.

    We explore seven strategies the devil uses against mature believers: sowing pride, reopening old wounds, promoting isolation, eroding our love for Scripture, replacing devotion with duty, breeding cynicism, and stealing our hope. But we don’t stop there, next we fight back. With humility. With healing. With community. With Scripture. With passion. With love. And with an unshakeable hope that looks beyond the grave to the eternal.

    This episode is about finishing well. Not limping across the line, but crossing it with joy, purpose, and a victory that echoes into eternity. If you’re feeling dry, discouraged, or just drifting, this one is for you. Let’s give the devil a headache. Let’s thrive, not just survive.

  • If ChatGPT Were the Devil EP. 234
    May 12 2025

    This week, we dive deep into a powerful and sobering discussion: what if ChatGPT spoke as the devil? What schemes would it use to pull young Christians away from Christ? Using a thought-provoking AI-generated list as a springboard, I explore Satan’s timeless strategies repackaged for the modern era: twisting identity, glorifying distraction, promoting self-expression over self-control, and sowing seeds of doubt in biblical authority. We examine how cultural messages of “follow your heart” and “live your truth” often disguise the same old lies, only now they come wrapped in viral trends and seven-hour screen time averages.

    But this isn’t about demonizing technology or condemning culture, it’s about staying spiritually alert. I share Scripture-rich insights to help families recognize the traps and fight back: helping our kids remember they are made in God’s image, embracing truth as a path to freedom, and walking the narrow road that actually leads to joy. Whether you're a parent, youth leader, or simply concerned about the next generation, this message is a call to wake up, stand firm, and pass on a grounded faith that lasts. Because if we miss heaven… we really do miss all there is.

  • A Mother's Love EP. 233
    May 11 2025

    In this heartfelt episode, I reflect on the powerful, often unsung influence of mothers. From the sleepless nights to the deep spiritual imprint they leave on generations, moms embody a sacrificial love that mirrors God’s own. Drawing from scriptures like Isaiah 66, Proverbs 31, and 1 Corinthians 13, we explore how a mother’s compassion, wisdom, and endurance shape not only children, but entire communities. I don’t claim perfection for moms, but I do argue that motherhood is a sacred calling. We look at how society undervalues the role of mothers, yet God honors it, and so should we. Whether you're a mother, had a great one, or are still working through a complicated relationship with yours, this conversation offers grace and perspective. Mothers aren't just raising kids, they’re forming souls and sowing seeds that bear fruit for generations. From the daily routines to the lifelong imprint, a mother’s work is holy work. So today, and every day, let’s rise up and call her blessed. This is more than a Mother’s Day sermon, it’s a celebration of divine design, enduring love, and the quiet strength that changes the world.
