    Can Repentance Bring Healing? (January Revisit – 3-Minute Clip)

    January Revisit: A Favorite Moment Worth Hearing Again Throughout January, I’m sharing short clips from past episodes of Honest Christian Conversations—moments that deeply impacted me and continue to resonate. Today’s minisode features a 3-minute clip from Part Two of a two-part conversation centered on repentance, healing, and spiritual freedom. In this episode, I speak with Beatty Carmichael as we explore the power of strategic repentance and how confronting past sin can lead to profound healing and newfound peace, inspired by Proverbs 28:13. Because this conversation unfolds over two episodes, I strongly encourage you to listen to Part One first, followed by the full episode of Part Two, to fully grasp the depth and heart of this message. Whether this is your first time hearing this discussion or a reminder of a truth you’ve encountered before, I invite you to revisit both episodes prayerfully. Sometimes God uses a familiar call to repentance to bring lasting healing and freedom. 🎧 Original Episodes:• Can Repentance Bring Healing? — Part One• Can Repentance Bring Healing? — Part Two –––––––––––––– Was this episode meaningful to you?

Today’s minisode features a 3-minute clip from a previous episode centered on breaking free from religious legalism and finding true peace in Christ. For many years, I was personally steeped in legalism, and the aftermath was painful and lasting.

Whether this is your first time hearing this conversation or a reminder of truth you’ve already encountered, I invite you to go back and listen to the full episode.

    A New Year, A New Direction: Letting God Stretch Our Faith Through Honest Conversations

    As we step into a new year, I’m sharing some significant changes coming to Honest Christian Conversations—and the personal journey God has been leading me through to get here. After a season of deep reflection, conviction, and prayer, I realized I needed to grow in boldness, humility, and love—especially when it comes to engaging with people I disagree with. This episode is an honest look at what it means to let God stretch our faith, challenge our comfort zones, and call us into deeper obedience. If you’re entering this year sensing that God is calling you to grow, change, or step into something uncomfortable, you are not alone. Let’s walk this journey together and allow Him to transform us. –––––––––––––– Was this episode meaningful to you?

    Are You Following the Real Jesus? Intimacy, Scripture, and the Cost of Knowing Him (MINISODE)

    As the year comes to a close, I invite listeners to examine whether they are following the real Jesus or an airbrushed version shaped by culture and assumptions. This minisode unpacks true biblical intimacy—being fully known and still chosen—and why Scripture is essential to knowing who Jesus really is. A sobering, hope-filled call to begin the new year rooted in God’s Word. Looking to see how you can discern the true Jesus from the airbrushed?

  6. Airbrushed Jesus vs. the Real Jesus: A Conversation About True Faith

    Airbrushed Jesus vs. the Real Jesus: A Conversation About True Faith

    Have you ever wondered whether the Jesus you follow is the real Jesus or a version shaped by your upbringing, culture, or personal expectations? In today’s episode, we’re peeling back the filters and confronting one of the most important questions in our walk with God: Do I know who Jesus truly is? I’m joined by Pastor Phill Tague, co-founder of Ransom Church in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, and author of Jesus Be the Centerfold: Choosing Covenant Faith Over Airbrushed Christianity. Phill shares openly about growing up in a legalistic home, wrestling with sin and shame, running from his calling, and realizing he had created a cleaned-up, airbrushed version of Jesus who fit his expectations but not the Jesus revealed in Scripture. Together, we dive into: Why so many Christians unknowingly create their own “version” of Jesus How legalism, performance, and perfectionism distort our view of God The difference between happiness and joy Why surrendering to God often starts with discomfort How vulnerability breaks spiritual chains Phill’s book and how it became a journey of honesty, courage, and obedience This is a conversation for anyone who has ever felt like they weren’t “doing faith right,” anyone who has wrestled with doubts or hypocrisy, or anyone who senses there must be more to their relationship with Jesus than what they’ve experienced so far. If you’ve ever said, “I want to know Jesus… but sometimes I’m not sure I really do,” this episode will encourage you, challenge you, and invite you closer to the heart of God.

This week's guest, Mark Osborne, is a perfect example of letting go of yourself to find Christ through the power of surrender and humility, two things foreign to human beings, but being the very nature of God.
