Abolish Abortion With a Constitutional Amendment | More Than Just a States' Issue
Episode #266
On this episode, Ryan explains why abortion is more than just a states issue and calls for a Constitutional Amendment to Abolish Abortion. Ryan draws parallels to the ending of slavery in the US, and the granting of voting rights and due process. Abortion is a matter of human rights and must be addressed with the same weight and urgency. There were no exceptions for slavery and there should be no exceptions for taking the life of the unborn. This episode goes beyond the societal norms to share the truth about what has been normalized. This episode will equip you to answer the question of what our nation must do when it comes to abortion. We must uphold biblical principles and respects every human life.

You Are God's Masterpiece
Episode #263
In this episode, Ryan dives into the meaning behind Ephesians 2:10 - that we are God's masterpiece. He explains how God uses the circumstances and challenges in our lives to shape us into something great for His glory. Though we may not understand it in the moment, God has a purpose and plan to use everything to prepare us for the good works He has already laid out for us. Ryan encourages listeners to look back and see how God has developed their character and trust that the process isn't over yet.
God is interested in who we are becoming, not just what we are doing. Ryan compares it to an artist fashioning a beautiful sculpture out of a rough block of wood. The finished masterpiece will point to the artist, not itself. Similarly, as God fashions us through life's difficulties, the process transforms us and brings Him glory. Ryan reminds us to trust God's good plans during hardship and continue becoming more like Christ.
Ephesians 2:10 – For we are his workmanship (masterpiece), created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.
2 Corinthians 3:2-3 – You yourselves are our letter of recommendation, written on our hearts, to be known and read by all. And you show that you are a letter from Christ delivered by us, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.
