    Righteousness, Peace, and Joy: Decoding the Signals of God's Presence ❖ 295

    The River, The Referee, and The Voice with Rev. Dr. David ChotkaHave you ever sat in the quiet—or in the middle of a chaotic Monday morning—and wondered: "Is that an interior thought from my own mind, or is Jesus actually giving me a tap on the shoulder?" In this episode of the Interviewing Jesus Podcast, host Kristen Wambach welcomes author, international speaker, and founder of Spirit-Equip Ministries, Rev. Dr. David Chotka. Moving far past surface-level church performance and dry academic theology, Pastor David breaks down the practical, everyday mechanics of hearing God's voice and recognizing the subtle signals of His presence. Together, Kristen and David unpack how Holy Spirit uses the ebb and flow of Righteousness, Peace, and Joy (Romans 14:17) as an internal compass. You’ll discover why God’s peace isn't just an emotion—it is an active "referee" (Colossians 3:15) that sifts your decisions, gives loving warnings, and confirms when you are standing on solid ground. 🔥 Key Takeaways & Highlights in This Episode: The Anatomy of the "Tap on the Shoulder": How God primarily speaks through the increase or withdrawal of His presence in your spirit. Decoding Romans 14:17: * Righteousness: A sweet, un-distracted walk with Jesus. Peace: Internal serenity acting as the arbiter and referee of your soul.  Joy: An explosive internal celebration alive inside you, regardless of external circumstances. The Greek Lexicon Discovery (BDAG): The Greek word behind "rule" in Colossians 3:15 (brabeuō) and how ancient referees, arbiters, and judges blow the whistle on our choices. Stories of Divine Accuracy: How David learned discernment after walking away from a job with no peace.  The miraculous story of the $108 cash gift given to two friends at 4:00 PM on a Friday.  Kristen’s $800 farm debris pile and the precise ways God meets personal needs. The Banks of the River (Practical Activation): How building a simple 5-minute daily devotional habit creates the structural riverbanks for living water to flow without overwhelm. 🎶 Music Video: The Banks of The River, The Referee, and The Voice by Kristen Wambach 👉 SUBSCRIBE TO KRISTEN'S YOUTUBE CHANNEL NOW 👈✅ INTERVIEWING JESUS SHOW NOTES: GUEST LINKS AND LISTENER RESOURCES👏 Purchase How Good is God (AMAZON) (BARNES & NOBLE) (USA DIRECT FROM KRISTEN)➡️ Connect with Kristen on Social Media 🌲 LinkTree💌 Want to be a guest on Interviewing Jesus?

    Unsubscribing from Urgency: Why Jesus Isn't Grading Your Faith with Jessica Morris ❖ 294

    Are you secretly exhausted from trying to get an "A" in your spiritual life? In this laugh-filled reunion on the Interviewing Jesus Podcast, host Kristen Wambach welcomes back theological researcher and spiritual director Jessica Morris to dismantle the performance-driven engines of modern devotion. Together, they dive into Luke 9:23 to help you trade the legalistic courtroom of religious perfectionism for the effortless living room of grace. Pull up a chair to learn how to drop the burden of striving, step into a continuous spiritual flow, and find radical peace by unsubscribing from urgency. Key Conversation Breakthroughs: The Mirror of Spiritual Direction: We break down the quiet mystery of holding space, revealing why a spiritual director isn't there to fix your behavior but to help you drop your guard and rest in the Father's presence. Balancing Trauma Excavation with Grace: We wrestle with inner healing, sharing how to prevent deep soul-work and "dying to self" from becoming a performance-based chore, anchoring you in wholeness instead. Moving from Broken Cisterns to Absolute Peace: When people inevitably fail us, we explore how to anchor your inner stability solely in the unshakeable nature of Jesus. The Paradigm Shift: From "Use" to "Flow": We challenge the idea of being a tool "used" by God, shifting instead to a blueprint of becoming open channels for the Holy Spirit to flow through effortlessly. Luke 9:23 and Your True I Amness: Leaning into the Mirror Translation, we explore the liberating truth that His cross is your cross—fully finished so self-effort can finally stall out. Jesus Isn't Grading Your Faith: Jessica shares a personal story that shatters her own religious scorecard, offering the profound relief that God isn't grading your performance. Unsubscribing from Urgency: (Music Video) We unpack a live testimony from a recovery circle that redefines what it means to live in the "now." Learn how to identify frantic timelines as a trauma response and step firmly into the unhurried timing of a gentleman Savior. 👉 SUBSCRIBE TO KRISTEN'S YOUTUBE CHANNEL NOW 👈✅ INTERVIEWING JESUS SHOW NOTES: GUEST LINKS AND LISTENER RESOURCES👏 Purchase How Good is God (AMAZON) (BARNES & NOBLE) (USA DIRECT FROM KRISTEN)➡️ Connect with Kristen on Social Media 🌲 LinkTree💌 Want to be a guest on Interviewing Jesus?

    THE LIVE FEED: Finding Strength, Perseverance, Bathed in Peace: Not Settling for Less Than What He Has Offered by His Own Flesh ❖ 293

    What if the most restrictive walls in your life aren't made of stone, but are built entirely from man's discord? In this powerful episode of the Interviewing Jesus Podcast, host Kristen Wambach dives deep into the profound reality of modern, invisible confinement—the suffocating pressure to perform, the weight of expectations, and the unexpected circumstances that threaten to shrink our world. When our immediate instinct in the friction is to beg for a supernatural jailbreak, we often miss the grander invitation of the Gospel. Through His own flesh, Christ did something far more radical than merely smashing open exterior doors: He tuned our inner frequency to His own. He offered us an inheritance of strength, perseverance, and a life completely bathed in peace, immersing us into an incorruptible, immortal liberty that never requires permission from our surroundings to exist. By shaking out the scriptures from Paul's prison epistles and contrasting his strategic sovereign rest with Peter's miraculous jailbreak in Acts 12, this episode shifts the paradigm of true Christian spiritual growth. You will discover that when you are fully unified with Him, freedom is no longer a destination you are running toward—it is the very atmosphere you carry right where you are. Stop settling for less than the absolute liberty He already purchased for you, and learn how to live spiritually brave in the middle of any environment. What You Will Discover in This Episode: The Architecture of the Invisible Cell: Recognizing the universal spiritual confinement created by performance culture and modern anxieties. Tuned to His Frequency: How Christ’s sacrifice harmonized our mortal frame into the unchanging frequency of divine immortality. Peter’s Escape vs. Paul’s Choice: Shaking out the text to see why Paul chose to stay behind bars to weaponize his confinement and broadcast the immortal Word. Living Wide Open: Practical insights on bridging heaven and earth to carry absolute liberty as your daily atmosphere. ➡️ Connect with Kristen on Social Media 🌲 LinkTree⊕ More conversations on Romans 8:2  👏 Purchase How Good is God (AMAZON) (BARNES & NOBLE) (USA DIRECT FROM KRISTEN)👉 SUBSCRIBE TO KRISTEN'S YOUTUBE CHANNEL NOW 👈 💌 Want to be a guest on Interviewing Jesus?

    “SUBJECT TO, NOT CENTRAL:” Dismantling the Performance Engine with Mick Wienholt ❖ 292

    Every day we ask, "What would Jesus do?" But what if the deeper question is: "Who does Jesus say that I AM?" On this episode of the Interviewing Jesus Podcast, host Kristen Wambach sits down with international podcaster Mick Wienholt (host of Coincidence or God) to dismantle the high-achieving performance engine we bring into our faith. Mick unzips his history, showing how physical facts were overridden by supernatural reality. From surviving an avalanche in 2000 to the full-term stillbirth of his son, Luke, in 2012, Mick details how deep trauma shattered his pride and forced an absolute surrender. He exposes the exact moment in 2023 when the Holy Spirit delivered a specific pattern interrupt to his corporate career: "Because you are a created being, you are subject to, not central in, your own life." Discover how to move from a comfortable, seated religion to a visceral, face-in-the-floorboards prayer encounter. Learn to stop functioning like a bucket trying to force control, and start living as a pipe that lets the Father's grace flow effortlessly on a practical Monday morning. It's time to lay down your targets and live Spiritually BRAVE! 💡 KEY TAKEAWAYS Dismantle the Performance Engine: High-capacity believers easily use prayer as a checklist to fund their own ambitions. True sonship requires shifting focus from what you can execute to who He says you are apart from your performance. Subject To, Not Central: Real intimacy begins when you realize your logic, targets, and desires are entirely subject to the King—He is the center of the template, not your personal provision metrics. The Blueprint Precedes the Trauma: Naming a child "Luke" (Light-giving) while actively hating God proved that an eternal signature was already rewriting Mick's family tree. Postural Surrender Breaks the Ego: Moving from a comfortable, seated prayer position to physically dropping to your knees with your face in the floorboards unmasks pride and deepens reliance on Holy Spirit promptings. Be a Pipe, Not a Bucket: When you experience God as a loving Dad, you stop acting like a bucket hoarding control and become a pipe letting His inherent grace flow effortlessly to the world. 👉 SUBSCRIBE TO KRISTEN'S YOUTUBE CHANNEL NOW 👈✅ INTERVIEWING JESUS SHOW NOTES: GUEST LINKS AND LISTENER RESOURCES👏 Purchase How Good is God (AMAZON) (BARNES & NOBLE) (USA DIRECT FROM KRISTEN)➡️ Connect with Kristen on Social Media 🌲 LinkTree💌 Want to be a guest on Interviewing Jesus?

This isn't an academic lecture on doctrine or a political debate—it is a practical path with raw stories, prayer, and simple activations designed to wake up the entrepreneurial dreamer inside of you. Kristen breaks down our unalienable, God-given rights not as abstract rules, but as the deep roots of a great tree that empowers you to self-govern, innovate, and safely pursue true happiness. Tune in on this landmark July 4th to discover how your personal transformation, business ventures, and spiritual maturity compose a beautiful symphony of brotherhood. Your dreams are the ceilings of your reality.

    GOD, What am I Missing: with Heather O'Brien ❖ 289

    Awareness is not the problem. The problem is that we don't know what to do with what we are aware of." — Heather O'BrienWhat happens when a believer who knows all the right spiritual language is secretly battling a roaring tiger of anxiety?

If your prayers have felt ineffective or you are tired of throwing generalized words at the ceiling, this conversation will completely reset your communication with God.
