    When Success Becomes A Burden E11

    Send us Fan Mail Welcome to TangibleTalks! In this episode of our Third Seed Series, we're discussing "When Success Becomes a Burden." Our culture tells us we can have it all, achieve it all, and do it all—but what is the emotional and spiritual cost of chasing that promise? Through the wisdom of Joshua Becker and the teachings of Jesus, we'll explore how the relentless pursuit of more can distract us from what truly matters. We'll discuss why true success often requires saying "no," choosing contentment over accumulation, and seeking God's kingdom above earthly treasures. Join us as we discover how letting go of what doesn't matter creates space for the life God intended us to live.

    Hidden Idols of the Heart E10

    Send us Fan Mail Welcome to TangibleTalks! Today we're exploring "Hidden Idols of the Heart"—the desires we often don't recognize that can quietly take God's rightful place in our lives. While we may not bow to carved idols, things like control, approval, comfort, security, power, and position can become objects of our worship when they consume our hearts. Drawing from Scripture, including the parable of the sower, Ezekiel's warning to Israel, and 1 John 2:16, we'll discuss how these hidden idols grow unnoticed, deceive us, and ultimately shape our thoughts, choices, and actions. Join us as we uncover how to recognize these subtle heart idols and redirect our worship to God alone.

    Achievement vs. Abiding E9

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of TangibleTalks, Jana and Reata explore the relationship between achievement and abiding, using John 14:6–14 as the foundation for their discussion. Reata honestly reflects on her tendency toward achievement and how abiding can sometimes seem passive, while Jana highlights the importance of maintaining a healthy balance between the two. Looking at Jesus’ example, they discuss how He first demonstrated what it means to abide in the Father before inviting His followers to abide in Him. Rather than simply giving instructions, Jesus modeled the process, showing that fruitful achievement flows from a place of connection and dependence on God. As part of the ongoing Third Seed series, the conversation examines how the distractions and pressures of life can crowd out this vital relationship, challenging listeners to pursue accomplishments that are rooted in abiding rather than striving alone.

    The Comparison Trap E-8

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of TangibleTalks, Jana and Reata discuss "The Comparison Trap," the habit of measuring our lives, families, and worth against others. They explain that comparison steals joy, energy, time, and purpose, often fueled by social media and envy. Drawing from John 21:21–22, they emphasize that comparing ourselves to others distracts us from the unique purpose God has for our lives and our responsibility to follow Him. They also reference Matthew 7:3–5, which teaches the importance of focusing on our own growth and shortcomings before judging others. Ultimately, the episode encourages listeners to reject comparison, embrace their God-given path, and find contentment in who God created them to be.

    What Are You Really Living For? E7

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of Tangible Talks, Jana and Reata explore one of life's most important questions: What are you really living for? Drawing from Psalm 51, they discuss how true fulfillment is not found in outward success or appearances, but in the condition of the heart and our innermost being. They examine how honesty with ourselves and with God lays the foundation for discovering truth, wisdom, identity, and purpose. When these foundational desires are aligned with our Creator's design, we experience joy and meaning; when they are not, life can feel empty and directionless. Join the conversation as they unpack what it means to live with purpose and pursue what truly matters.

    The Subtle Grip of Worry and Anxiety E5

    Send us Fan Mail In Episode 5 of the Third Seed Series on TangibleTalks, Jana and Reata explore how the "cares of this world" quietly take over our lives through worry and anxiety. Drawing from Matthew 6 and Philippians 4, they discuss the subtle process of chronic worry, how it chokes out our joy, and how to find divine peace in the middle of life's daily battles. The Subtle Danger of Worry - Worry and anxiety rarely take over all at once. Instead, they creep in through a subtle, gradual process. If left unaddressed, dwelling on future unknowns or reliving past hurts will consume your daily life. As Jesus warned, these worldly cares will choke the life right out of you and leave you producing nothing. #tangibletalks  #tangibletakeaways Tangible Talks podcast conducts conversations about applying the teachings of God in everyday situations that reveal Jesus.  Show Music:  "Brand New Day" by Reveille Show Credits:  Creative Producers & Hosts - Jana Hunt, Reata Strickland Editor - Jana Hunt  Sound Design & Graphic Artist - Reata Strickland  Website: https://www.tangibletalks.org/ Instagram: @tangibletalks Facebook: tangibletalks Contact: tangible@tangibletalks.org #tangibletalks #tangibletakeaways

    When Good Things Become Ultimate Things E4

    Send us Fan Mail The subtle danger of letting possessions, success, and worldly cares take ownership of our hearts, explored through the New Testament Parable of the Rich Young Ruler. What happens when the pursuit of success and wealth shifts from a blessing to a burden? In this episode, we dive into Matthew 19 to explore the story of the Rich Young Ruler. It’s a compelling look at a man who seemingly "had it all" and kept the commandments, yet walked away from Jesus in sadness. We discuss the moment our possessions begin to possess us, how worldly cares can dull our hearts, and how Jesus turns an impossible human dilemma into a message of divine hope.
