    What Following Jesus Really Costs | With Craig Filipponi

    What if following Jesus is supposed to feel hard, and still be the lightest thing we ever carry? Rob has a burning question: why do so many of us who say we follow Jesus go quiet when it comes to the work of following Him? In this conversation, Rob sits down with Craig Filipponi, a tax professional who learned to hand his deadline-season pressure over to Jesus out loud. Together they look at what repentance really means, what it costs to take up our cross daily, and why the work of following turns out to be the work of learning to love. You'll hear: Why Jesus' first word, "repent," means changing the way we thinkHow Craig handed his tax-season results to Jesus, and what changed for his workload and his familyWhy Craig's expectations of himself were higher than God'sWhy anxiety shuts down our capacity to love, and how denying it opens that capacity upWhy there is no work to receive grace, and why everything after saying yes to Jesus is workHow "your will be done on earth as it is in heaven" works as a test of God's willWhy time alone with Jesus, using our imagination and hearing His voice, is oxygenWhat the gym teaches us about denying ourselves so we can love someone else Journal prompts Jesus, where is the work that I need to lean into? What's the work of the kingdom that I am not practicing self-denial for, that I'm not sacrificing myself for? What is that work? Show it to me. About Craig Filipponi Craig is a tax professional who credits TMP (The Master's Program) and 100xLife, along with meditation and time in Jesus' word and silence, for dropping his work stress.

    The Blind Spot Jesus Warned the Church About

    What if the way we see people is the very thing limiting our ability to love? In John 9, Jesus heals a man born blind, and then the Pharisees, the ones who were sure they saw, ask Him, “Are we also blind?” His answer is one of the most unsettling lines in the Gospels. In this coaching session, Rob walks through why Jesus came into the world for judgment, what it means that “your sin remains,” and how the habit of seeing other people as less than quietly shuts down our ability to love. Then he gives you a simple way to start weeding it out this week. You’ll Hear Why Jesus said He came so that “those who see may become blind”What the word “remains” in John 9:41 really means, and why it’s the same word as “abide”How judgment becomes the blind spot of people who are doing everything rightWhy being right about someone’s sin doesn’t free you to condemn itHow hearing Jesus’ voice, like Mary at His feet, weeds judgment out of your heartWhy judgment will come to mind in the next few days, and what to do when it doesScriptures: John 9:35-41, John 1:29, Luke 6:37, Luke 10:38-42 Journal Prompts Ask Jesus: Where does my judgment remain on people? Show me. Journal His answer in first person.Ask the Holy Spirit: Give me the power and show me how to remove this judgment. Journal His answer in first person.📘 100xLife Book → https://www.100xlife.com/book 🔥 Become a 100xLife Coach → https://www.100xlife.com/coaching 🚀 Take the 62 Day Challenge → https://www.100xlife.com/challenge

    What If Repentance Isn’t Just Turning Away From Sin? | With John Van Lenten

    What if repentance isn't just turning away from sin?This week we're replaying one of our favorite conversations, recorded in the middle of the 62-day challenge. Rob sits down with his good friend John Van Lenten, who shares how Jesus changed the way he thinks about repentance, and how training his body has become training to follow Jesus. If you've been working through repentance and the stories you tell yourself, this one is for you. YOU'LL HEAR- How John went from thinking of repentance as only turning away from sin to repenting toward Jesus- Why John asks the Holy Spirit, the author of Scripture, to apply the verses he already knows- Why "regulate how you see" is bigger than protecting your eyes (Matthew 9:36)- The spin bike story: how one thought made Rob's legs quit- John's "following Jesus muscle" on the hill climb- The prayer John prays before he falls asleep, and why Jesus doesn't take the wheel- The thankfulness switch that puts John on the Jesus track instead of his own JOURNAL PROMPTS1. Holy Spirit, what do you want me to repent toward right now?2. Father, where am I treating someone like an obstacle instead of taking a difficult situation with that person and seeing it as a gym opportunity, a time for training my ability to change the way I think? ABOUT JOHN VAN LENTENJohn is Rob's longtime friend from Calvary Church Santa Barbara. He is passionate about discipleship and abiding in Christ (John 15), and he was in the middle of the 62-day challenge when this conversation was recorded. SCRIPTURE MENTIONEDJohn 15:5 and 15:7 | Matthew 9:36 | Romans 8:6 | Psalm 121 | Psalm 63:6 | Psalm 91 | James 1 and 1 Peter 1 (consider it pure joy) LINKS📘 100xLife Book → https://www.100xlife.com/book🔥 Become a 100xLife Coach → https://www.100xlife.com/coaching🚀 Take the 62 Day Challenge → https://www.100xlife.com/challenge

    You Want Stronger Faith? It's Spelled R-I-S-K

    What if the missing piece in your faith isn't more belief, but a risk you haven't taken yet? In this episode of the 100xLife Podcast, Rob Dayton continues the coaching series with the second half of Jesus' first command: repent and believe. If repentance is changing the way you think, belief is where that change has to show up in your whole life. Rob breaks down what Jesus meant when he told people "your faith has made you well," and shows that faith is your spirit, soul, and body all moving in the same direction on one truth. He tells the story of the woman who reached for Jesus' cloak, then gets personal about his own three-year journey out of sexual addiction, when his spirit and mind said yes to Jesus but his body kept doing the opposite. He also gets honest about the areas where his faith still falls short today. From there, Rob gives you a practical path for growing faith in a specific area: retrain your brain with your imagination, then take the risk when the opportunity comes. In the kingdom, he says, faith is spelled R-I-S-K. This is a coaching session, so grab a notebook. Rob wants you to apply it this week. You'll Hear Why Jesus kept saying "your faith has made you well"What faith actually is: spirit, soul, and body aligned on one truthWhat it looks like to be double-minded, and why Jesus calls that lukewarmWhat the woman who touched Jesus' cloak shows us about faith in actionRob's story of moving from sexual addiction to purity, and what alignment looked like along the wayHow to use your imagination to retrain your brainWhy faith requires risk, and how failing is part of growing itA simple question for finding your kingdom purpose: what one thing from heaven do you want to see on earth?Journal Prompts Holy Spirit, show me an area where I'm not aligned in faith between my spirit, soul, and body.Holy Spirit, give me imaginations of how that would look in heaven. (Journal his answer in the first person.)What training is required? What reprogramming does my body need to match what my spirit and soul are saying?Missed the first part?

    The Vision Behind 100xLife, and What's Next

    What would it take to see an entire generation of Christians known for how well they love? In this episode of the 100xLife Podcast, Rob Dayton steps away from the usual format to share something more personal, the vision behind 100xLife, and an invitation to partner in it. For years, Rob and Nancy have quietly funded this ministry themselves. They still don't take any money from the book, that goes to Amazon, not to them. But as more people have asked how they can give, Rob felt it was time to explain the full vision: why this ministry exists specifically for people who've already said yes to Jesus and now want the transformation he promises, why coaches are the key to multiplying that transformation, and what's being built next, a dedicated 100xLife app, a coaching platform, and a chronological harmony of the gospels Rob has been working on. This episode is an honest, humble look behind the curtain of a ministry built on the conviction that saying yes to Jesus is only the beginning, and that the real work, and the real joy, is in what comes after. You'll Hear Why 100xLife exists for people who've already said yes to Jesus, not as an evangelism toolThe story behind the Brat House, and what it taught Rob about the reputation of ChristiansWhy coaches, not content alone, are central to how this movement growsWhat the new 100xLife app will include, and why it's being builtA preview of the 100xLife Harmony Gospel Rob is developingWhy Rob and Nancy have chosen not to profit from the bookAn invitation to partner financially in the next season of this ministryLinks 🤝 Partner with 100xLife → https://www.100xlife.com/invest📘 100xLife Book → https://www.100xlife.com/book 🔥 Become a 100xLife Coach → https://www.100xlife.com/coaching 🚀 Take the 62 Day Challenge → https://www.100xlife.com/challeng

    There Are Three Ways to Think. Which One Are You?

    There are three ways to think. Which one are you? Most of us assume our thoughts are just... ours. True by default, ours to have, not really up for question. In this episode of the 100xLife Podcast, Rob Dayton challenges that assumption directly, and gives you a framework to actually test it. Rob names three distinct patterns people fall into without realizing it: the thought predator, who treats every thought as absolute truth and slides into comparison and entitlement; the thought victim, who fears their own mind and spirals into self-condemnation; and the thought director, the one who's learned to notice a thought, question it, and replace it with something truer. Most people bounce between the first two their whole lives, never knowing a third option exists. From there, Rob walks through the actual mechanics of becoming a thought director, a simple, repeatable four-step practice: notice, evaluate, replace, repeat, drawing on Paul's instruction to take every thought captive. He shows exactly how he applies it in real time, including a personal example from a recent trip through the airport. This is a practical, hands-on episode, closer to a coaching session than a conversation, meant to be journaled through rather than just listened to. You'll Hear Why repentance means "change the way you think," not "feel sorry"The three thought patterns: thought predator, thought victim, and thought directorWhy your emotions aren't truth, they're how you imagine the truthPaul's strategy for "taking every thought captive" in 2 Corinthians 10Rob's four-step practice: notice, evaluate, replace, repeatA real example of Rob catching and replacing a judgmental thoughtWhy full alignment of spirit, soul, and body is what Rob calls faithJournal Prompts What's a dominant thought you're having that feels negative?How does this thought make you feel?Who would you become without this thought?Jesus, what thought would you have in this situation?

    A Hard Season, A Stronger Marriage | With Pete Miko

    What if the hardest season of your life could also be the one that makes your marriage the strongest it's ever been? In this episode of the 100xLife Podcast, Rob Dayton sits down with longtime friend Pete Miko, a graduate of the Master's Program and a 100xLife Coach, for an honest conversation about what happens when your marriage and your business are moving in opposite directions at the same time. Pete shares candidly about a season where his relationship with his wife has grown stronger even as his business has gone through real hardship, and how learning to see his wife the way God sees her, rather than reacting to her in the moment, has completely changed how he shows up for her. He and Rob dig into what it actually means to have an eternal mindset in marriage, why taking up your cross is often most real with your spouse, and why physical discipline (staying in the gym, literally) plays a bigger role in emotional and spiritual resilience than most men realize. You'll Hear What made the eternal mindset "the best thing anybody's ever told" Pete about his marriageWhat it means to be "in knowledge of your wife"Why business hardship and marital growth showed up in Pete's life at the same timeWise counsel for facing more than one trial at onceThe connection between physical discipline and spiritual resilienceWhy finishing strong means thinking about the legacy you leave your kidsJournal PromptHoly Spirit, why do you love my spouse so much? What is it about their design that you're particularly fond of? About Pete Miko Pete and Rob go back to the late 90s, back when Rob first met Nancy, and they've been tracking together ever since, including in one of Rob's earliest Band of Brothers prayer groups. Pete's a graduate of the Master's Program and has become a 100xLife Coach himself, still very much in the gym.
