Do you ever wish you could just ask someone about all the random stuff you go through each week and get help? That's what I'm going to do.
Each week I'm bringing a real, live situation up to Kyle Ranson, a mentor of mine who's gone through all this stuff. I'm not just looking for the typical answer—I'm looking for a better answer through a faith perspective, and that's what he's going to help me with.

053 - Are You Tired??
It's pretty easy to get overwhelmed with all the things we have to do or say yes to. And it's even harder to see a way out, sometimes! Yet God promises to give us rest? This week we're talking about how we bridge that gap. Listen in!

052 - Can You Hear God? Also, Does God Discipline Us?
You probably hear people talk about "hearing" from God or doing something because God told them to. But how do you know if it is actually God or not? While there are a whole lot of things to avoid here, this is what we're focusing on today as well as how God as a loving Father corrects us so we can stay on track! Listen in!

051 - Can People Change?
Can people change? Like, really change? It's a question you may ask about others or even yourself. This week we're diving into that question and discussing lasting, true, inward change. Listen in!

050 - The War for Your Mind: Lies & Truth
Whether consciously aware of it or not, there is a war for your mind. Jesus calls the devil, the "Father of Lies" (John 8:44), whereas Jesus is called the Truth. Satan would have you believe false things to oppress you and Jesus would have you believe truth to set you free (John 8:32). So what is this battle like? How do we fight? How do we win? That's what we're talking about. Listen in!

049 - Living Fully Alive: Rejecting Numbness ft. Justin Mosteller
God wants us to live fully alive. If you want to live fully alive, something you will have to wage war against is numbness. Which means actively making moves to cut out and reject activities or thought patterns that make us numb out and feel nothing. In other words, living half asleep. Jesus promised abundant life (John 10:10) and this is one of the barriers that'll keep us from it. Listen in!

048 - Living Fully Alive: Real Friendship & God ft. Justin Mosteller
Building off last week, we are discussing what it looks like and what active decisions we can make to build real, honest, enjoyable, life-giving friendships. On top of all that, living in this helps us experience and enjoy God in a new way. He created us to be deeply connected to others. Listen in!

Better answers to the God questions we all want to ask
Found this podcast on the Crossroads app, listened, and was amazed. I’ve been looking for a podcast like this for a long time. Kyle and Nick are fun guys. The interaction is perfect. Nick brings the questions from his own life. Crossroads pastor Kyle Ranson answers them with incredible wisdom. He knows the Bible in and out. Pretty much binged the whole series in one weekend so now I have to wait.
Fresh perspective that is simple and practical. Great podcast.
The hosts do an excellent job of highlighting common challenges in most of our lives, while exposing powerful but approachable paths to addressing these challenges. More importantly, they expose ways (or The Way) to a much better life. I found this podcast to be fun, fresh, and enjoyable, and look forward to listening to more.
