    Abide - Ep. 32

    Ep. 32 - Rocky and Josh wrap up their Book Club covering The Presence Centered Life , taking on Chapter 12 and the Epilogue. They explore what it means to truly abide in Christ, grounding their hearts in His abiding presence as they reach the conclusion of the book series. Rocky also shares powerful reflections from an 11-hour road trip spent in the Bible Project’s series on God's character and anger. He breaks down how biblical anger is tied to God giving humanity over to the consequences of their own choices—allowing the "chaos waters" to surge—and how Christ stepped in as the ultimate intercessor. Drawing from the stark contrast between Barabbas and Jesus, Rocky explores atonement as a rich mosaic where Jesus physically and cosmically takes our place to defeat death. 🎵 ⁠⁠⁠⁠Grace Jams: Christian Song of the Week Playlist ⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🔗 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📰 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🟦 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📸 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📧 ⁠Email⁠: thegracenotespodcast@gmail.com

    Follow Him - Ep. 31

    Ep. 31 - Rocky and Josh dive into Chapter 11 of The Presence Centered Life , unpacking what it means to radically follow Christ and join Him in what He's doing. Rocky also walks through Matthew 18, pointing out how Jesus redefines true greatness through the humility of a child, the character and heart of the Father leaving the 99 for the 1, and the stark hypocrisy of unforgiveness in Christians in light of the cross—highlighting how God always leans toward mercy, while His anger (natural reaction to sin) is slow and held back (slow and patient in His character, ’Erek ’Appayim in Hebrew). 🎵 ⁠⁠⁠⁠Grace Jams: Christian Song of the Week Playlist ⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🔗 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📰 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🟦 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📸 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📧 ⁠Email⁠: thegracenotespodcast@gmail.com

    Be Filled - Ep. 30

    Ep. 30 - Rocky and Josh dive into Chapter 10 of The Presence Centered Life, exploring what it truly means to be filled with the Holy Spirit. Rocky unpacks the rich theological blueprint of Matthew 17—from the Exodus parallels in the Transfiguration to Jesus being the ultimate meeting place between God and man. The conversation breaks down why seeing God's glory isn't enough on its own, how true faith requires heart-level belief over sight, and how Jesus’s death and resurrection pave the way for us to live in true Sonship with God. 🎵 ⁠⁠⁠⁠Grace Jams: Christian Song of the Week Playlist ⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🔗 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📰 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🟦 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📸 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📧 ⁠Email⁠: thegracenotespodcast@gmail.com

    True Repentance - Ep. 29

    Rocky and Josh explore Chapter 9 of The Presence Centered Life, unpacking what it genuinely means to deny oneself, pick up one's cross, and turn back to God. Rocky breaks down the literary and spiritual journey in Matthew 14–16, tracing the movement from the chaos of sin into new creation, and showing how Jesus’s compassion breaks through hypocritical tradition to overflow into the lives of all who seek Him. 🎵 ⁠⁠⁠⁠Grace Jams: Christian Song of the Week Playlist ⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🔗 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📰 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🟦 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📸 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📧 ⁠Email⁠: thegracenotespodcast@gmail.com

    Communing with God - Ep. 28

    Ep. 28 - Rocky and Josh explore Chapter 8 of The Presence Centered Life, discussing what it means to practice unceasing prayer, read Scripture experientially, and meditate (hagah) on God's Word throughout the day. They break down practical ways to slow down in prayer—from morning and evening habits to unhindered prayer and secret place communion—so that the Holy Spirit actively shapes our daily filter. 🎵 ⁠⁠⁠⁠Grace Jams: Christian Song of the Week Playlist ⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🔗 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📰 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🟦 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📸 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📧 ⁠Email⁠: thegracenotespodcast@gmail.com

    Drawing Near - Ep. 27

    Ep. 27 - Rocky and Josh dive into Chapter 7 of The Presence Centered Life, exploring the vital discipline of cooperating with the Holy Spirit and maintaining a daily, check-in prayer life. They unpack what it means to be as close to God as we choose to be, reflecting on how easily the world draws us away and why fasting, spiritual renewal, and pursuing God’s glory over the daily grind are essential. 🎵 ⁠⁠⁠⁠Grace Jams: Christian Song of the Week Playlist ⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🔗 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📰 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🟦 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📸 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📧 ⁠Email⁠: thegracenotespodcast@gmail.com

    His Coming Presence - Ep. 26

    Ep. 26 - Rocky and Josh continue as a dynamic duo for Episode 26: His Coming Presence, turning their attention to Chapter 6 of The Presence Centered Life.
