You probably wouldn't say it out loud—but deep down, something's off. The goals you're chasing feel hollow. The highs don't last. And no matter how much you tweak your life, you keep running into the same restlessness. In this episode, we explore why self-centered living feels so natural yet leaves you exhausted—and why surrendering to Jesus might be the only way out that actually makes sense.
Ever notice how bad thoughts seem louder, heavier, and way more powerful than the good ones? You're not crazy—and you're not stuck. In this episode, we explore why negativity takes over our minds so easily and what Jesus actually says we can do about it. Whether you're skeptical of faith or deep in your walk with God, this talk breaks down a practical and surprising way to win the battle in your head—and start living free.
“Do not be anxious about anything.” Sounds impossible, doesn't it? In this message, we unpack one of the most misunderstood (and triggering) verses in the Bible—and discover it's not a guilt trip, it's a rescue plan. But Jesus doesn't shame you for your spiral… but He does want to step into it.If anxiety runs your life—or even just your week—this episode is for you!
What if the thing holding you back spiritually isn't trauma, doubt, or fear… but your spending habits?This episode unpacks one of the most ignored teachings of Jesus—the way money quietly replaces God in our lives.It's not about guilt. It's about freedom. And it starts with asking a hard question: Do I actually trust Jesus to take care of me?
You might not realize it, but entitlement could be the one thing keeping you from peace, purpose, and real happiness.In this message from our series on Philippians—Finding Deep Happiness in a World of Stress—we unpack why so many of us feel anxious, bitter, or disappointed even when our lives are full of good things.This isn't a guilt trip. It's a look at something deeper. Because when you finally see what you actually deserve—and what Jesus offers instead—it changes everything.Whether you're religious or not, this episode might surprise you. And it just might be what your heart's been looking for.
