Does God seem complex and difficult to understand? Sometimes the answer seems to be yes, but the good news is that at His core, God is not complex at all Sean & Khalil discuss God's simplicity, an essential attribute of God that makes Him who He is essential good news for us. While God possesses many attributes, as discussed on this show, His nature is simple in that it cannot be divided, segmented, or broken up into different parts.

When you think about "image," what comes to mind? Grasping the importance of being made in God's image is one of our spiritual essentials but most people don't have a good understanding of what it means. In this episode, Sean & Khalil explore the biblical narrative surrounding God's Image and explore how a deeper understanding of what scripture says here shapes and changes how we live, what we live for, and how we share God with those around us. In summary, We were created for the purpose of imaging God. Sin is the failure to be righteous and to image the Creator as we were made to; it is falling short of the image of God by failing to represent His character and communicable attributes in creation. But Jesus frees us from sin and invites us back to God's original plan for his creation. resources For more conversations like this one, subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen, give us a rating and follow us on social media Follow & Support Follow us on Instagram https://www.patreon.com/wtttpodcast (Support us on Patreon)

Did you know the Bible has a lot to say about the table and how it shapes our identity? We're talking with a Messianic Jewish Rabbi to help us understand how this lost idea literally has the power to transform discipleship, shape our families, and change our lives forever. This Jewish & Christian theology of the table is actually one of the ideas that shaped the name of this podcast!

this time on the podcast we want to introduce you to one of the spiritual disciplines that most affect the development of our hearts. The Christian spiritual discipline of memorization; also known as scripture memorization. The process of memorizing scripture is so powerful because it moves the word of God from a collection of words we merely process cognitively into something that transforms our heart spiritually; it becomes deeper than knowledge, it becomes part of our very being as image-bearers. When scripture becomes a part of who we are, there is no other option but for the word of God to flow from us through our words, our actions, and our character and transforms our lives.

With so many people confused about what discipleship truly is or struggling to live it out with others, we need help to bring some clarity. Darin Poe is a discipleship specialist bringing us a framework for discipleship that anyone can live out. It's our Great Commission, some might say it's our calling. This conversation will help you start walking in new power right away!

In this episode we're introducing you to a spiritual discipline that guards your heart, renews your mind, and uplifts your spirit in the power of God. It may seem obvious, but then again it may seem overly simple. Let's learn together how a spiritual discipline (or a regular rhythm) of celebration has the power to change your life.

EEk...

Everyone seems to be in the search of "simplicity" but no one really seems to actually be experiencing it. This ancient practice has the power to transform lives, heal souls, and unlock a type of spiritual clarity that will help you walk in God's purposes with greater focus than ever before.

If you've wondered how to grow in your calling, begin walking towards vocational ministry, or help others do the same, this is a conversation for you. We're exploring the foundations of Christian calling and vocational ministry through the lens of John Zick's book Called.

With the pace of modern life, the rate of innovation, and the constant pressure to perform, silence and solitude are forgotten arts in the 21st century and a dying spiritual discipline for sure. Yet this discipline must be reclaimed if we are to experience the joy of God's presence and the spiritual renewal that God offers those who practice it.

When most people think about conflict they think of something to be avoided at all costs. The reality though is that conflict is a part of everyday life and actually plays a central role in what it means to be a Christian and can play an important part in healthy living, deeper relationships, and spiritual growth.

Continuing our walk through the Spiritual Disciplines, we discuss the essential Christian spiritual discipline of prayer. While prayer is one of the most discussed disciplines out there, it still may be one of the more neglected in daily life. A rich and transformed life begins here. Show Notes: How we learn to pray: By praying meditating on scripture praying with others reading about prayer Two Primary models for prayer: The Lords Prayer (Matthew 6:9-11) A.C.T.S (Adoration; Confession; Thanksgiving; Supplication) Follow on Instagram

James 5:16 calls us to confess our sins to one another so that we may be healed. Is it really that easy? We're talking about one of the most important aspects of the communal Christian life with our guest Jeff Gowing. While confession is critical, experiencing a community where true confessional community can take place has at times been one of the church's biggest obstacles.
