    Level Up Talk - Balrog, Gandalf, and Jesus

    Level Up Talk - Balrog, Gandalf, and Jesus

    One of the best moments in LOTR is when Gandalf faces the Balrog in Moria. Even though he dies, he comes back leveled up in power. That's pretty intense. But what stands out is the trash talking he does to the Balrog. It kind of reminds me of how Jesus is able to tell off a bunch of demons (more like a Legion) to get out the man in front of him. So how does that connect with me and how can I be more like Gandalf/Jesus?

    Level Up Talk - Proud Hobbit Feet and Sharing Jesus

    Not may people are proud feet and you would think a Hobbit would be the least of all people to be proud of them considering how hairy they are. However, there is something about these feet; they can go anywhere. those feet helped saved Middle-Earth; kinda reminds me of another pair of feet that didn't look great at all, but brought the best message humanity could ever have!

    Level Up Talk with Wilson - JJK Curses and Sin

    Jujitsu Kaisen is a rising anime that bring us an interesting use of curses. Apparently, in the show, curses can be used for both good in evil. However, we see a different view on that Biblically and how that effects not just us, but people around us. Join us as we Level Up in our lives/faith in understanding what sin is, how it impacts us and the world around us, what Jesus did about it, and what do we do about it while following Jesus.
