It's good to be back. Join James as he checks in after a few weeks and a few life interactions later. Are we working hard enough? Should we be worrying and planning for the future? Do you have anxiety over your life that is NOT founded in the heart of God for you? Let's get into it.

I just felt like sharing a real moment of grace, redemption, and sweetness. Joined me as I talk about the struggle of being the disciplinarian verse the safe place. Sometimes one must lose.

We've been told to love the Church. We've been told love is not a feeling. Join James as he dives into Scripture to see what the Word has to say on this highly debated issue. What does Jesus and the Bible actually say on the matter?

Join James as he dives into why we stop making friends later in life. Is it because we have our core 4? Or are we afraid to risk it... again? After many years of using the mantra "We must be a Safe Place", James is still digging into why it's so hard to do this. After experiencing a powerful online community, he has some new insight. We hope you find it helpful!

If you're anything like me, you struggle with Church. Maybe you have some church hurt from poor leadership, gossip, money grubbing, or the barrage of other ways sinful people mess up what God intended for good. I'm not here to tell you to join a church, but I am here to tell you not to do it alone. The local Church just happens to be the most convenient way to do that. So let's take a look in the Word and see what God desires our gathering to look like.

As humans, we are well acquainted with disappointment in others. Maybe even our own Dad's. What if we truly let God father us? In the midst of an imperfect life with imperfect people who love us imperfectly, can we let Him fill the gap? Do you believe He can? Does your soul need restoration... or just... rest?
Join James as he shares some hurt, and hang-ups, but chooses to turn it back to The Lord. There is a power there that your heart desperately needs to feel complete.

James recalls a recent story of encouraging another, while feeling as though he was preaching to himself. We do this don't we? The Spirit is gracious to remind us of verses for the edification of the body... but often ourselves as well.

James recounts some discouragement, isolation attempts from the enemy, and how to push through it. It is easy to feel devalued when you feel like an island. Press into Jesus when this happens, stay a part of the body, and God will surprise you! You are a valuable part of the body of Christ... but sometimes that means you feel different than others. That's ok. God made you that way!

These 2 episodes were first called "what is spiritual warfare?" due to the nature of Satan's involvement. However, this one particularly speaks to the divisive nature of the Enemy. James digs into speaking life into each others differences. We must stop tearing down the church. We call out false gospel's, and speak truth to lies always, but we cannot deny the power of 1 Pet. 4:8, to love deeply the harder it gets. Therefore, spiritual warfare, and seeking unity among His people are very, very closely linked. We hope you enjoy it and feel encouraged. You are not alone, no matter how much Satan wants you to think you are.Please follow, like, and share! Contact: [email protected]

Join James as he dives into some practical and situational attacks from the Enemy, how to fight the lies, what the Bible says about it, and how to aim for unity over discord. This is a hard topic to cover succinctly because of how nuanced it is. Satan can take any opportunity to tell you that you don't matter. James talks about loneliness and isolation, sex, age, gifting, and various other moments that temptation and lies can seep in.
Please check out Pt.2 as well for closure. Also, if you heard this already and it was cut off, make sure it is 44min. The first upload didn't have the back 10min before.

Have you ever met that Christian that acts like all Christian's are perfect, pleasant, and good for you? Church hurt often begins this way. Leaders trusting leaders and never giving you a voice? We need to be honest about the human factor of humanity. Christian's still sin and still need Jesus just as much as the day they got saved! What about the differing versions of Christianity? What does it mean to be "born again"? Let's get into!

Join me as I discuss the new format of the show! For just a few minutes I'll touch on a few fun topics each week before the main topic. Today we got into the staying nature of One Hit Wonders vs this quick fix culture, how The Food Babe, Vani Hari, is saying things all parent's should be paying attention to, and even some of my PTSD adventure after the death of a mentor.

Ever wondered why Catholics go to confession, worship Mary, or believe in "last rites"? Once the Veil was torn, access was granted! Or was it? Do Catholics try to fit a square peg in a round hole, or do they know something we don't?
Ever wanted to hear a Biblical argument for or against this? Join James as he takes a bold dive into the major dividers of Catholicism and Protestantism. If we're suppose to live a Jesus+ life, then let's be sure He's not enough!
This is James' first official video. So we're aware it's a bit rough. Thanks for watching while we grow in different mediums and platforms.
Verses:
Matt 12:46-50 (not my mother)
Matt 16:19 (bind and loose)
Matt 18:18-20 (in His name)
Matt 27:51 (The Veil!)
Luke 1:28 (favored one)
Luke 1:46-47 (Mary needs a Savior)
Luke 15:7 (99 for 1)
Luke 24:46-48 (repentance)

Join me and my boy, Dash, as we tackle some devotional questions together. What better way to get into the mind of a child and their walk with God, than to ask them questions!
Katy Boatman wrote these kids devo's and they're fantastic! We have never met, and she did not sponsor this show. Perhaps she'll come on the show after we get into some of these awesome questions she came up with! Thanks Katy!

My greatest teacher, Nav Director, and landlord of 8 years passed away unexpectedly last week. Dave Wirgau is a giant of the faith and of mine personally. His passion for community and one-on-one discipleship became the blueprint for my theology. Please join me as I share my story with Dave. Hopefully more to come.
I promised the Harvest series in the shownotes. So here it is! Enjoy and share!

This was a fun one. I barely scratched the surface on the power of Scripture, how it's living, and how to read it in context. I cover the meaning of water, how to misinterpret, what to watch out for, translations, and more. I hope you like it!

Yes, I love Transformers! Don't you love that phrase, "more than meets the eye?" Sounds like "don't judge a book by it's cover" doesn't it? But I'm not referring to judging. I'm referring to the hidden. This episode is all about how obvious truth and facts seem foreign to others. Could it be something supernatural is afoot? Ephesians 6 would have us believe, yes!
