  1. 024 - Illusion vs. Reality

    2 DAYS AGO

    024 - Illusion vs. Reality

    From the moment we are born into this world we are being marketed to. We never have a chance to actually see reality or understand it in order to make our own decisions, because we only see the illusion of what others want us to see, think, feel, and choose. These illusions use fear to create and feed habits, addictions, spending, understanding, and so much more. Industries profit from these illusions and prey on our fears to keep us coming back for more, thinking we're achieving one thing but actually accomplishing the opposite. If this is true in industries like food, alcohol, cosmetics, health, wellness, and entertainment, it's probably true in religion too. In fact, I know it to be true in our faith, and the enemy is the one to blame. In this episode, you'll learn how to spot an illusion (lie) from the enemy and see the opposite reality of God's truth. You'll learn a simple action step straight from the Bible to be able to follow the reality of God's truth instead of the illusions of the enemy. Here's the passage: ' For although we live in the flesh, we do not wage war according to the flesh, since the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but are powerful through God for the demolition of strongholds. We demolish arguments and every proud thing that is raised up against the knowledge of God, and we take every thought captive to obey Christ. And we are ready to punish any disobedience, once your obedience is complete. ' 2 Corinthians 10:3-6

    023 - Honey in the Rock

    This episode gives you a bit of an insight into my Baptist childhood and our Sunday rhythm as a family. From Sunday School to "Bus kids" and worship songs I despise to weird "Christianese" phrases, I talk about it all. By the end I unpack this phrase (also the title of a popular worship song some unnamed people despise): "honey in the rock" found in Psalm 81:16. Here's the passage: 'But he would feed Israel with the best wheat. “I would satisfy you with honey from the rock.” ' Psalms 81:16

    022 - The Problem with Sacrifice

    In John 2, Jesus gets angry and overturns the money changers' tables and drives out everyone and every animal in the temple - on Passover weekend, the biggest festival of the year in Jerusalem. Needless to say, he ruffled some feathers. But I think His anger has just as much to do with us as it did the religious leaders. Here's the passage: 'The Jewish Passover was near, and so Jesus went up to Jerusalem. In the temple he found people selling oxen, sheep, and doves, and he also found the money changers sitting there. After making a whip out of cords, he drove everyone out of the temple with their sheep and oxen. He also poured out the money changers’ coins and overturned the tables. He told those who were selling doves, “Get these things out of here! Stop turning my Father’s house into a marketplace! ” , And his disciples remembered that it is written: Zeal for your house will consume me. , So the Jews replied to him, “What sign will you show us for doing these things? ” Jesus answered, “Destroy this temple, , and I will raise it up in three days.” Therefore the Jews said, “This temple took forty-six years to build, and will you raise it up in three days? ” But he was speaking about the temple of his body. So when he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this, and they believed the Scripture and the statement Jesus had made. While he was in Jerusalem during the Passover Festival, many believed in his name when they saw the signs he was doing. and because he did not need anyone to testify about man; for he himself knew what was in man. Jesus, however, would not entrust himself to them, since he knew them all ' John 2:13-25

    021 - The God of Jacob (Psalm 24)

    This chapter of Psalms gives all of us hope, because it points to how a perfect God embraces imperfect people. Here's the passage: 'Who may ascend the mountain of the Lord ? Who may stand in his holy place? The one who has clean hands and a pure heart, who has not appealed to what is false, and who has not sworn deceitfully. He will receive blessing from the Lord , and righteousness from the God of his salvation. Such is the generation of those who inquire of him, who seek the face of the God of Jacob. Selah ' Psalms 24:3-6

    020 - Preaching Without Words (Psalm 19)

    I love how David writes this Psalm and uses imagery and nature to make a powerful point of how we should live our lives. It's such a great passage. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do talking about it. Here's the passage: 'The heavens declare the glory of God, and the expanse proclaims the work of his hands. Day after day they pour out speech; night after night they communicate knowledge. There is no speech; there are no words; their voice is not heard. Their message has gone out to the whole earth, and their words to the ends of the world... May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to you, Lord , my rock and my Redeemer.' Psalms 19:1-4,14 CSB

    019 - Unshaken: Psalm 15

    How do you go through life "unshaken"? Psalm 15 has some insight. Here's the passage: ' Lord , who can dwell in your tent? Who can live on your holy mountain? The one who lives blamelessly, practices righteousness, and acknowledges the truth in his heart — who does not slander with his tongue, who does not harm his friend or discredit his neighbor, who despises the one rejected by the Lord but honors those who fear the Lord , who keeps his word whatever the cost, who does not lend his silver at interest or take a bribe against the innocent — the one who does these things will never be shaken.' Psalms 15:1-5

    018 - Breaking the Enemy's Teeth: Psalm 3

    Have you ever felt like you were under attack? Not because you were in the wrong per se, but because you felt like the world was out to get you? This message is for you, my friend! Here's the Scripture: ' Lord , how my foes increase! There are many who attack me. Many say about me, “There is no help for him in God.” Selah But you, Lord , are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts up my head. I cry aloud to the Lord , and he answers me from his holy mountain. Selah I lie down and sleep; I wake again because the Lord sustains me. I will not be afraid of thousands of people who have taken their stand against me on every side. Rise up, Lord ! Save me, my God! You strike all my enemies on the cheek; you break the teeth of the wicked. Salvation belongs to the Lord ; may your blessing be on your people. Selah' Psalms 3:1-8

    017 - The Pursuit of Happiness: Psalm 1

    What does it take for a man to be truly happy? Psalm 1 is all about what it looks like for a man to be happy and what it looks like for a man to be unhappy. In this episode, we walk through this short chapter, explain what it means, and then apply it to our everyday life. Here's the Psalm: 'How happy is the one who does not walk in the advice of the wicked or stand in the pathway with sinners or sit in the company of mockers! Instead, his delight is in the Lord ’s instruction, and he meditates on it day and night. He is like a tree planted beside flowing streams that bears its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers. The wicked are not like this; instead, they are like chaff that the wind blows away. Therefore the wicked will not stand up in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous. For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked leads to ruin.' Psalm 1:1-6
