    It's good to be back. Join James as he checks in after a few weeks and a few life interactions later. Are we working hard enough? Should we be worrying and planning for the future? Do you have anxiety over your life that is NOT founded in the heart of God for you? Let's get into it.

    Send us a text

    We've been told to love the Church. We've been told love is not a feeling. Join James as he dives into Scripture to see what the Word has to say on this highly debated issue. What does Jesus and the Bible actually say on the matter?

    Ephesians 5:25-32
    1 Peter 4:8-10

  • E37: We're not taking applications: Why we stop adding friends
    Sep 1 2024

    Send us a text

    Join James as he dives into why we stop making friends later in life. Is it because we have our core 4? Or are we afraid to risk it... again? After many years of using the mantra "We must be a Safe Place", James is still digging into why it's so hard to do this. After experiencing a powerful online community, he has some new insight. We hope you find it helpful!

  • E36: What is the purpose of the local Church?
    Aug 25 2024

    Send us a text

    If you're anything like me, you struggle with Church. Maybe you have some church hurt from poor leadership, gossip, money grubbing, or the barrage of other ways sinful people mess up what God intended for good. I'm not here to tell you to join a church, but I am here to tell you not to do it alone. The local Church just happens to be the most convenient way to do that. So let's take a look in the Word and see what God desires our gathering to look like.

    Scripture:
    -Hebrews 10:24-25
    -1 Corinthians 12:12, 14:23-26

  • E35: Let Him father you.
    Aug 7 2024

    Send us a text

    As humans, we are well acquainted with disappointment in others. Maybe even our own Dad's. What if we truly let God father us? In the midst of an imperfect life with imperfect people who love us imperfectly, can we let Him fill the gap? Do you believe He can? Does your soul need restoration... or just... rest?

    Join James as he shares some hurt, and hang-ups, but chooses to turn it back to The Lord. There is a power there that your heart desperately needs to feel complete.

    Verses:
    -Mark 2:27
    -Matthew 11:28-30
    -Exodus 20:5, 34:14
    -Deuteronomy 32:35-36

    -1 Peter 3:18-20 & 4:8
    -Hosea 14:3
    -Psalm 119:11
    -John 13:35
    -Revelation 12:11
    -Matthew 15:8-9
