Valentine’s Day is almost here — and everywhere you look, love is being celebrated. But what if the version of love we’ve been sold isn’t the one that actually brings peace?

Living the Freedom Jesus Offers

Breaking the Chains of Religion: Living the Freedom Jesus Offers Have you ever felt like your faith became more about performance than relationship? Like you were trying to be a “good Christian” instead of living in the freedom Jesus promised? In this powerful episode of Beyond Belief, we explore the difference between religion and relationship — and how Jesus didn’t come to give us more rules, but to set us free. So many believers today are trapped in cycles of perfectionism, shame, and performance, believing they must earn God’s love. But the truth of the Gospel is this: Jesus came to transform your heart, not just your behavior. Through biblical teaching, personal reflection, and practical application, this message will help you: • Break free from performance-based Christianity • Understand the freedom found in God’s grace • Stop living for approval and start living in authenticity • Experience true transformation through a relationship with Jesus • Let go of shame, fear, and religious pressure Jesus didn’t come to make you look perfect on the outside. He came to make you alive on the inside. If you’ve ever struggled with feeling like you’re not “good enough,” this message will remind you that freedom is not found in religion — it’s found in Him. This episode is perfect for anyone seeking spiritual freedom, deeper faith, and a more authentic relationship with Jesus Christ.

Still Turning Back To Egypt

What do you do when you believe in God—but struggle to trust Him? In this episode of Beyond Belief, we explore one of the most honest and human spiritual struggles: knowing God is real, yet still feeling afraid, uncertain, or tempted to rely on yourself instead of Him. Drawing from the powerful story of Israel’s journey from Egypt to the Promised Land, this episode reveals why even people who witnessed miracles still struggled to trust God daily. From the Red Sea to the manna in the wilderness, their story reflects our own. We often want freedom—but when uncertainty comes, we’re tempted to return to what feels familiar. This Christian podcast episode will help you understand: • Why trusting God can feel harder than believing in Him • The deeper meaning behind manna and daily dependence on God • How fear, delays, and uncertainty test your faith • Why we create “backup plans” instead of fully trusting God • How God remains faithful—even when our trust is weak • How Jesus meets us in our struggle to trust If you’ve ever felt like God is silent, distant, or taking longer than expected, this episode will help you rediscover peace, clarity, and confidence in His guidance. Trust isn’t built in one moment. It’s built daily. This episode is for anyone who wants to grow spiritually, strengthen their faith, and learn to trust God—even in seasons of waiting.

The God Who Heals

Do we still believe that God heals today — not just in Scripture, but in real life, in real pain, and in unanswered questions? In this episode of Beyond Belief, we step into the tension between what we sing on Sundays and what we face during the week. When illness, fear, and uncertainty hit close to home, faith becomes deeply personal. This is not a conversation built on clichés or easy answers — it’s an honest exploration of hope that refuses to disappear. Drawing from Mark 9 and the raw prayer, “I believe; help my unbelief,” we explore what it means to trust God when faith feels fragile, prayers feel risky, and healing feels uncertain. This episode invites you to wrestle honestly, pray boldly, and remember that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. If you’re navigating sickness, doubt, waiting, or quiet disappointment — this episode is for you. You don’t need perfect faith. You just need honest faith. 🎧 Listen, reflect, and share with someone who needs permission to believe again.

Are You Trusting God — or Trying to Control Him?

Are you trusting God — or trying to control Him? In this episode of Beyond Belief, we dive into Acts 8 to explore a tension many of us feel but rarely name: the pull between surrender and control. When faith becomes a system, prayer becomes a technique, and miracles become something we expect on demand, something essential is lost. Through the story of Simon the sorcerer, this episode asks hard, honest questions about modern faith: When does trust quietly turn into control?Why do we try to manage God instead of knowing Him?What happens when grace is treated like a transaction?This conversation is for anyone who has ever: Felt frustrated when prayer didn’t “work”Tried harder spiritually but felt emptierWondered whether faith is meant to feel lighter than it doesFaith isn’t a formula. Grace isn’t earned. And the gospel was never for sale. Beyond Belief is a space for honest faith, deep questions, and ancient stories that still speak into modern life — without pretending everything is neat, predictable, or controllable.
