What If We Keep It Real

It's no secret that life often throws us curveballs, distracting us from the mundane tasks that need our attention. But here's the truth: mastering consistency is the key to achieving greatness in every aspect of our lives. From personal growth to professional success, it all begins with the commitment to do the little things consistently.

In a world where phrases like "Only God Can Judge Me" and "You Can't Tell Me Nothing" have become mantras, the concept of accountability seems to be fading away. But here's the thing: accountability is not about judgment or restrictions; it's about empowerment and growth. Here we explore the power of personal growth through accountability. We raise a crucial question: How can we cultivate relationship circles that foster personal development through accountability? We'll explore the importance of holding ourselves and others responsible for our actions and choices, and how it ultimately leads to positive change

Is love enough to build a lasting marriage? Is love enough to build long-term relationships? Is love all we need?

But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people. They are the kind who worm their way into homes and gain control over gullible women, who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires, always learning but never able to come to a knowledge of the truth. Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so also these teachers oppose the truth. They are men of depraved minds, who, as far as the faith is concerned, are rejected. But they will not get very far because, as in the case of those men, their folly will be clear to everyone.

Is it possible to have a successful marriage with an unbeliever? And be happy if married to an unbeliever? What is the difference between a happy marriage and a holy marriage?

How we react to danger can determine a lot of outcomes for Christians. Is danger a sign to flee or is danger something exciting? When you encounter danger, do you flee or do you dance with it?

Christians are often encouraged to forgive and forget, but is this even possible? Maya Angelou said, "People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you make them feel" How does one even begin to forget an impactful feeling like hurt? In this episode, we're exploring the concept of forgiveness, and what it should look like for us Christians. If this is your first time listening.

Tomorrow is not guaranteed. All you have is right NOW. How are you stewarding your NOW?

We talk about all things purpose and destiny.

Most of us want to be successful. Most of all fear failure. Unfortunately, not all of us succeed. Unfortunately, many of us fail.

One who has unreliable friends soon comes to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.

The impact of unmet expectations has the potential to kill every relationship you'll have.

So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Simply put. It's hard being a Christian man in the 21st Century.

But if they cannot control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.

We were criticized for our first two episodes on this series, and we invited our critics so we have an open conversation.

Our first conversation was not sufficient, so we invited Sia to add substance to the conversation.

Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin[a] a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body. - 1 Corinthians 6:18

Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness? What accord has Christ with Belial? Or what portion does a believer share with an unbeliever? What agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God; as God said, “I will make my dwelling among them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Therefore go out from their midst, and be separate from them, says the Lord, and touch no unclean thing; then I will welcome you, and I will be a father to you, and you shall be sons and daughters to me, says the Lord Almighty.”

The Bible does not discuss masturbation explicitly or mention whether or not it is a sin. Yet masturbation is a pandemic that has crippled millions of Christians across the world. In this episode, we candidly share our journeys as recovering masturbators, hoping that our testimonies will help you take a step forward in your recovery journey.

When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come. (John 16:13)

“But now I am writing to you not to associate with anyone who bears the name of brother if he is guilty of sexual immorality or greed, or is an idolater, reviler, drunkard, or swindler—not even to eat with such a one. 12 For what have I to do with judging outsiders? Is it not those inside the church whom you are to judge? 13 God judges those outside. “Purge the evil person from among you” (1 Corinthians 5:11-13).

We all suffer from comparison. If you don't, then STOP listening to this episode. But if you do, this episode could potentially change your life.

Can we build brands while remaining authentic?

Then Elijah stood in front of them and said, “How much longer will you waver, hobbling between two opinions? If the LORD is God, follow him! But if Baal is God, then follow him!” But the people were completely silent. - 1 Kings 18:21

“And to the angel of the church in Laodicea write: ‘The words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of God's creation. “‘I know your works: you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were either cold or hot! So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth. For you say, I am rich, I have prospered, and I need nothing, not realizing that you are wretched, pitiable, poor, blind, and naked. I counsel you to buy from me gold refined by fire, so that you may be rich, and white garments so that you may clothe yourself and the shame of your nakedness may not be seen, and salve to anoint your eyes, so that you may see. ...

Are material blessings mutually inclusive with salvation? Or is it suffering that is mutually inclusive with salvation? Why is the common 21st century Christian exclusively associates material blessing with a relationship with God? These are some of the questions we grapple with on this episode.

All of us fall somewhere on the spectrum of realness. On one end of the spectrum is an unwavering commitment to be real and on the other end is a paralyzing fear of being real. But our Fear of being real has a price, our IDENTITY. And authenticity has a price, OUR PLACE IN SOCIETY. We believe real change, growth, and transformation happens when we choose to be authentic. And as for our place in society, we believe it is better to have an authentic sense of belonging than otherwise. Join us on this journey of transformation as we engage in authentic conversations.
