    Ep. 309 - Why You Don’t Need to “Find Yourself”: A Biblical View of Identity

    Many say they need to find themselves, but what does that mean? Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar talk about how when we look within ourselves for meaning, we walk away disheartened. The truth is, we find ourselves by losing ourselves in Christ. Believers don’t need to find themselves; they need to forget themselves. When we keep our eyes on the Lord, the opinions of others won’t bother us. Only when we realize that Jesus is all we have do we understand He’s all we need.What we think about ourselves...

    Ep. 308 - Is the American Dream Destroying Your Faith? The Idolatry of Success

    The American dream, often defined as life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, has increasingly become intertwined with the pursuit of money and success. Many politicians refer to this idea, yet it doesn’t reflect the reality for much of the world, where many are just trying to survive. While it’s not wrong to be financially well off, the American dream often replaces God’s kingdom with idols. Success can become an idol competing with God’s rightful place in our lives. Our hearts are prone...

    Ep. 307 - Why Millennials Are Leaving the Church: The Hard Truth No One Wants to Hear

    Millennials leaving the church raises important questions. Some may wonder if their departure reflects a lack of genuine faith. Faith based on other people rather than a relationship with God can easily falter. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar encourage believers to stir one another up in the faith while many are becoming disillusioned with the church in our current culture. The failure of church leadership, fallen pastors, and hypocrisy have turned many against Christianity. At the same time, soci...

    Ep. 306 - Finding Peace in the Character of God

    Jonny Ardavanis joins Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar to discuss finding peace in the character of God, as explored in his book, Consider the Lilies. Though he never initially saw himself as a pastor, he now serves full-time in Tennessee, driven by a desire to offer hope in an anxious world. In full time ministry Jonny observed widespread struggles with anxiety and depression, prompting him to explore these issues from a biblical perspective. He emphasizes that anxiety isn’t limited to young peopl...

    Ep. 305 - When Politics Becomes Idolatry

    As election season approaches, it's important to reflect on how we should engage with politics. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar remind us that politicians are human and flawed, and while we may support certain candidates, it’s essential to remember a believer’s ultimate citizenship is in heaven. Israel was instructed to contribute to society while in exile but also warned not to assimilate with the culture. Likewise, we should engage but avoid political idolatry, as our hope lies in God’s kingdom,...

    Ep. 304 - The Hidden Dangers of Celebrity Christianity: Are We Idolizing Our Pastors?

    Many church services are centered on entertainment, which opens the door for celebrity pastors. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar talk about how the focus of many churches has shifted from preaching the gospel to getting more people in the doors. This man-centered approach leads churches to prioritize charisma over genuine spiritual leadership. The goal should be to live, preach, and be forgotten, magnifying the Lord rather than the individual. True pastoral leadership is about shepherding souls, no...

    Ep. 303 - How to Reach Muslims With the Gospel

    Jay Smith, a missionary with extensive experience ministering to Muslims, sits down with Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar to talk about how Christians can more effectively witness to Muslim people. Jay was born in India and initially had no interest in witnessing to Islam people.He learned that so few missionaries were reaching out to one of the largest religions in the world, and this spurred him to begin evangelizing to Muslim people. One issue he addresses is the Muslim claim that the Bible is c...

    Ep. 302 - Why You Should Never Follow Your Heart

    Have you ever questioned the wisdom of following your heart? We venture into this profound inquiry, contrasting the cultural encouragement from figures like Steve Jobs and Oprah Winfrey with the cautionary tales from biblical teachings in Galatians and Romans. The discussion begins with a personal story of a spontaneous act of kindness during a flight from Ecuador, illustrating life's unpredictability and the spiritual battles we face daily. This episode invites you to reflect on the tension ...
