    In this special episode, I join Josh Khachadourian on the Raising the Standard podcast for a high-impact conversation on calling, clarity, and building Kingdom authority through your message.

We dive into the exact steps that help Kingdom-driven entrepreneurs, coaches, and leaders unlock their voice and build a message that creates real transformation. You'll discover: How to identify your core assignment and the message God has entrusted to you Why so many gifted people stay stuck in overthinking, planning, or procrastination The structure every creator needs to turn revelation into impact How writing a book can amplify your authority, open doors, and align with your Kingdom calling The "Unique Mechanism" framework Josh uses to help leaders build programs and movements The mindset shifts required to rise from consumer to creator Why NOW—not someday—is the time to step forward into your message If you sense God calling you to step deeper into your purpose—to write, teach, coach, or lead—this episode will help you break through the noise and finally take action. Ready to clarify your message, write your book, and build the platform God is calling you to?

    Do We Need Entertainment at Strong Men's Conferences?

    The picture used for this episode's publicity image or cover, depending on where you're seeing it, comes from an attempt to use AI to generate an image for me. Using a photograph of a matapalo, or strangler fig in English, known for its distinctive characteristic of enveloping and ultimately overpowering its host, as a metaphorical foundation, I asked DALL-E 3 to craft an image with the following prompt: Create an image of a strangler fig where the main tree is depicted by or symbolic of the church, being constricted by representations of entertainment, stardom, money, and fame chocking it out. The result is compelling visual metaphor—a tree at once vibrant yet ensnared by the very elements meant to augment its growth. Incidentally, that's also the main theme of today's episode, but let's back up. Does entertainment even belong in the church? In this episode of the podcast, I share some of the deep sense of disillusionment that arises when respected spiritual leaders fall from grace, citing examples a couple of high profile example figures who've irreparably ruined their earthly legacies. Listen to find out, who, besides Mark Driscoll, I'm referring to. Driscoll's recent controversies serve as a reminder of the ongoing challenges within the Christian community about leadership, integrity, and accountability as well as… what role, if any does entertainment even have in the church? Does it belong, or is the fact we're even debating this indicate other graver issues? We also discuss the dangers of distractions and idolatry, and how "killing sticks," can hinder our spiritual growth and relationship with God. I hope to challenge listeners to reflect on any aspects of their lives that may be taking precedence over their faith. Amid reflections on personal and collective failures, this episode's overarching message remains one of hope, redemption, and the transformative power of returning to the core of our faith in Jesus and an organic approach to Christianity free from the matapalo of the American Gospel Enterprise.

    Should We Expect to See an End Times Revival? | Author Roundtable

    Does the Bible teach there will be a final end-time revival right before the return of Christ? Are college campus revivals a sign we're living in the last of the last days before the Lord's return? What is the Mark of the Beast? Should we cancel dentists? This week I talk with J.D. King, author of The Beast of Revelation: Unraveling the Mystery (and audiobook narrated by yours truly -- get it on Audible here), Leo De Siquiera, founder of Hopeful Eschatolgy, and rounded out with our third guest who is the author of The Power of His Reign: An Easy Introduction to Amillennialism.  We tackle quite a few things related to the end times, including where the different view points place Israel in the scheme of things, and the importance of one's worldview and outlook and what responsibility we have in implementing the Gospel in the earth, whether we're going to be here a while, or His return is nigh. Join us for a great discussion.

    Biblical Wealth and a Good Reputation | Kris Bennett

    This week I got to talk to a long time friend I've kept in touch with over the years since we both attended Bible School, albeit having both gone on way different albeit similar journeys. Kris Bennett was the one who answered the phone when I called FIRE School of Ministry in the summer of 2001 regarding the status of my application to the school.  After all these years we're finally having a recorded conversation and discussing things he doesn't talk much about on his own podcast, The Storage Investor Show. In this episode we discuss: Imposter Syndrome and the various ways we've both faced it in our lives, education and businesses. What barrier to entry one might have in fulfilling their call; for one person that might be higher education, for another specific vocational skills The challenges of fund raising vs tentmaking and freelancing Wealth and a good reputation as outlined in the book of Proverbs The rewards of diligence in both ministry and in businesss. If you can solve someone's "bleeding neck problem", you can get paid well and never need to worry ever gain about providing for your family if you possess such skills. ...among quite a few other things.
