The Perry and Shawna Podcast: Real life conversations reminding you that you’re Abba’s child and that you’re blessed to be a blessing and loved to share Jesus’ love.

    10 Million Dollar Day

    10 Million Dollar Day

    How would you feel if you were offered 10 million dollars? What if it meant you wouldn’t wake up tomorrow? You’d probably pass. Another day of life is more valuable than 10 million dollars. So what are you going to do with this priceless day?

    Perry bragged about himself yesterday. He wanted to impress Ben. He finds it so easy to boast in himself. But he’s learning is to boast in the only one who’s worthy—King Jesus. When we boast in him we begin feel the pleasure of why we’ve been created!

    God’s love for us is always a reality but sometimes we need to be reminded of its truth. Shawna shares how an unexpected text that reminded her of another truth completely changed her outlook for the day.

    In the journey with Jesus, he leads us into humility. He reveals to us, more and more, a deep awareness of our sin. You see this in Paul who went from “I’m faultless before God,” to, “I’m the greatest sinner who ever lived.” How do we handle this descent without becoming devastated? 

    Shawna hates having a sliver dug out. She’d rather pretend it’s not there. She realized that she does this emotionally too. What are the consequences of denial when we leave unwanted feelings just under the surface and try to pretend they aren’t there?

    Last, when Perry struggled with sin as a teenager, he was afraid to come to God with his mess. The only thing he could say was, “Lord help me with my problem.” Why do we run from God and not to him?

    “Destroy Them All God!”

    “Destroy Them All God!”

    Have you ever so blatantly disobeyed God that you actually did the opposite of what God told you to do?

    Pastor & author, Steve Norman of Winning at Home, joins us to talk about what we can learn about God and about ourselves from the story of Jonah in the Bible.

    God told Jonah to go to Nineveh and warn them to turn from their sin but Jonah rebelled and ran the other direction. He hated the Ninevites!

    As Jonah was running we see how God used even Jonah’s disobedience to turn others toward him when the pagan sailors began to worship the true God.

    God’s compassion is enough for all of us—Jonah experienced compassion in the belly of a fish even though he was running from his mission. And Ninevah experienced compassion through Jonah’s preaching even though he still longed for the people to be destroyed!  

    Then, in the day in and day out we may not see transformation, but God is working. Shawna’s friend Cheryl realized how she was different from who she used to be when she took a road trip to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.  

    Have you ever felt overwhelmed by your love for God? Todd, a listener, texted to share with us an incredible moment he had with the Lord – a moment that made him want to burst into dance!

    Then Perry shares, “There are moments when something will trigger a painful memory of one of my worst sins.” That happened to Perry last week. He shares his default mode to deal with the shame. Maybe you’ll relate.

    I Was T-Boned at the Intersection of Life

    I Was T-Boned at the Intersection of Life

    Alone.

    After losing his marriage, his ministry, his job – all the things that were his identity, Dave McIntyre, Director of Set Free Global, was invited to enter the process of becoming a contestant on the survival show Alone.

    And he was one of 10 selected to be left alone in the rocky, wet terrain of the north end of Vancouver Island, British Colombia.

    His heart was full of regret and revenge. He had lost 35 pounds. He was hungry. He was miserable. And he had no one and nothing to distract him from it.

    Thirty or so days into his time “alone” he had to face his own sin and the sin of those who had grievously harmed those he loved the most.

    What happened? How did it impact him?

    Dave joins us to share his incredible story of coming to the end of himself and to the beginning of freedom in Christ.

    The Sex Talk You Never Got

    The Sex Talk You Never Got

    In our sex-obsessed world, it might seem ironic that men need more talk about sex. But in reality, sexuality is one of the most neglected conversations for men.

    The message Shawna grew up with was “Men want sex all the time. They can’t help it.” Where’s God in that? There must be more to the story.

    Christian counselor and trauma therapist, Sam Jolman, who specializes in men’s issues joins us to talk about his new book The Sex Talk You Never Got.

    Perry, Shawna and Sam talk about pornography, shame, struggling alone, how to have conversations about sex at any age, and God’s good plan for our sexuality.

    So, married or single, The Sex Talk You Never Got will help men discover the joy of their God-given sexuality and invite them to celebrate  - rather than struggle against – the gift of sexual desire.

    One day you will stand before God, faultless, blameless, without a single sin or stain. What the heck? How is that even possible? Because even the most godly person still has faults right up to their final breath.

    Lastly, in the late nights, full days and vacations of summer how do you maintain regular time with Jesus? Shawna shares some of her favorite ways to sneak away with her first love in the summer months.

    Look Up To God

    Look Up To God

    Who did you look up to as a kid? Maybe a celebrity or professional athlete? Maybe there’s someone you look up to now. What if that person was unable to meet your expectations or if they weren’t here anymore?

    Psalms 146 reminds us that people will fail us but God never will. He holds the world in His hands and He is present with us to give us the wisdom we need for life, real time.

    Ever stress out about God’s will for your life?  Scott shares how he did earlier in life and what insight from Chuck Swindoll helped him to relax and realize that it would all be okay.

    Pride is something people struggle with.  Ben shares a recent struggle with pride, and how he reacted to how the Lord made Ben feel about his pride.

    Did God Create Death?

    Did God Create Death?

    Perry asks “If God created everything good, why has my suffering friend had to suffer all his life?” And Jeff, a Perry and Shawna listener asks similarly, “If God made everything, why is there death?”

    Dr. J joins us to answer Bible questions! Dr. Jeremy Grinnell earned his PhD in Systematic Theology from Calvin Seminary in Grand Rapids, MI, and taught graduate level theology for nearly 15 years.

    He answers the following Bible questions (including above) from listeners like you.

    When we’re reading the Bible how can we know if the promises we’re reading are for the people they were written to, or for us? Jeremiah 29:11 for example.

    Perry shares, “God put a passion in my heart for God’s word when I was 16, but I never grew in the word cause I didn’t read it till I was 18! So Jeremy talks about why reading the word is such a big deal.

    Then how the scripture transforms us inside out. And Jacqueline asks, “Is the Sabbath meant only for the Jews or is for us as well?”

    Next, “What does it mean in Jeremiah that God is married to the backslider?” (It’s a beautiful window in to the astonishing grace of God). And Ronda asks, “Who was the first Jew, Adam, Eve, Abraham??”

    What does true Biblical repentance look like? And last Ed asks, “Were humans more wicked before the flood than we are now? And if God judged the world so severely back then and he will destroy it again with fire, what really is God’s heart toward us? I thought he’s a God of love!!”
