Discipleship has suffered in America because of the barriers created by rituals and skewed theology in the broken systems of church.  Today John passionately discusses two reasons discipleship has almost been done away with in America.

Many bring their thoughts and opinions to God, but we must place our trust in what he has done and will do rather than think we have it figured out. This episode goes through the judgment parable of the "The Ten Coins." The Parable before Jesus enters Jerusalem.

As Jesus goes to see Lazarus we learn the meaning of resurrection and the implications for on now. Good News? You bettcha!

The series on God's Judgement and Grace continues. Jesus is under fire as he heads towards Jerusalem. On the way he does something unheard of and the hope he brings those with authority want to destroy. In the process we find a surprise witness to the truth of Jesus as the truth, resurrection and life. John our host hen recaps God's Judgment as seen through God's eyes.

Many did not understand the good news of Jesus during his earthly ministry. That was because he did something the world would not think to do. He lost to win. Check out what this means and why God's grace was God's judgment.

The good news of the Gospel challenges the law and even more so overcomes it by Grace. In the same way, grace challenges the idea of judgment as punishment vs. reward. In light of what Jesus has done what does God's Judgment mean then? Join us in the good news of God's Judgment as we look to see what it truly means..

Is the the cross just about God's wrath? In this episode we find Jesus willing to not only to descend into darkness but to confront the root of our human nature.  Light exposes not just our sin but the reality of what informs who we are. 

The wrath of God is often spoken of concerning the work of Jesus. However, is it possible Jesus took the cross for even a more glorious reason than to satisfy Gods wrath?

So many of us walk in a season of doubt or crisis. In a time of holding or confusion what does the Lords Prayer say to us? Join me as I unfold the Lords Prayer and explain its meaning.

Society has a default to use institutions as a default for change. America is rejecting the industry and system of church while Christians have clung onto it as an agency of uplift. This dependency towards religious activity and utopian ideas has put the freedom we have in Christ in someone else's hands or worse in our own. In no case when freedom has been outsourced toward a system or a person has it worked or been achieved. You cannot give up agency in this manner and gain freedom. Yet, it's freedom we have been given in Christ. The life of Good news starts in Christ, but the question we will have to answer as his children is this, "In light of this grace how shall we live in this freedom we have been given?"
