Podcast appearances and mentions of Dennis Allen

Today, I have Dennis Allen on the podcast. Dennis followed his heart to the Air Force as fighter pilot, and suddenly was hit with a life altering diagnosis that ended his military career. Propelled into the business world, he would ultimately become a consultant to guide businesses how to better address internal issues, shore up where they might be struggling, and reevaluate leadership. In his work, he began to see the similarities in the issues he was unpacking within businesses and modern Western discipleship, and the Church. Thus his book The Discipleship Dilemma: Rethinking and Reforming How the Church Does Discipleship was born. In our conversation he shares with us his personal story of God quite literally giving him a new heart and growing his heart to help leaders in churches as well as every member of the Body of Christ refresh and recapture their vision for Jesus' call to go and make disciples of all nations. We unpack what discipleship is and isn't, and how to address some of the issues going unaddressed in churches and hurting hearts who are questioning God because of their encounters with His people. Its a challenging message and conversation, but its a really really good one. I hope you'll circle up for this family meeting of sorts and dive deep with us.   There are all kinds of ways this conversation could land on you and wherever you are in life as a whole and your relationship with God or with His church. I want you to know that no matter what, there is room for the wrestling and questions, and that is part of being a disciple in fact. There is hope for redemption, friends. Above all else, there is a God who loves you dearly and made you on purpose. Seek Him, and you WILL find him. I hope this podcast can be a tool to point you to places in scripture where you can learn to know Him more, but also to resources, tools and people that could perhaps aid you in your journey. Just know that you're not alone. We're all learning. Praise God He's not finished with us. Just remember. You matter to the Lord. Your story matters.    Connecting with Dennis:  Book Facebook  Instagram Website    Episode Sponsor: Tony Crabtree of Crabtree Homes with Exit Realty Facebook Instagram  Tik Tok  Website YouTube   References: Pistol Pete Maravich Jim Fixx The Running Book  Definition of orthodoxy Definition of orthopraxy Definition of heterodoxy Young LIfe Simeon the Styllite Elder Billy Graham Theodoret (wrote about Simeon) The Bedouin world To follow a rabbi as a Jewish student Constantine's impact on Christianity (we have great episodes on this part 1 and 2)  Clericalism The word for “take heart” - Tharseo CRU Christ is the cornerstone  You have never met a mere mortal - C.S.

The New Orleans Saints schedule is out and it's clear Derek Carr, Dennis Allen, Cameron Jordan and the krewe should be a division-winning team in 2023. But what are some of the pitfalls and traps that could get in the way? The Saints avoided late-season travel to the New England Patriots and Green Bay Packers, but will have a short week off of a road trip until they host the Jacksonville Jaguars on Thursday Night Football. Bryce Young, C.J. Stroud and Anthony Richardson, three star rookie quarterbacks could be on their roster, and Foster Moreau's contract breakdown is another thing of beauty by the Saints front office.

In this episode, of NFL Total Access The Podcast I am joined by Mike Yam. We start the show discussing, the recent news of Aaron Rodgers being booed at Madison Square Garden and his comments about his introduction to the Jets facility. We explore what it will take for the Jets to turn their recent struggles into a successful season. Next, we give our predictions for the Jets' performance in 2023, including whether they have done enough to eclipse the Bills and Dolphins in the AFC East. We also dive into the Jets' Fantasy Watch, discussing whether passing on Garrett Wilson in the fantasy draft will come back to haunt us, and whether we should have taken Aaron Rodgers. Moving on, we give our reactions to the post-draft power rankings and focus on the NFC West, providing draft grades and analysis for each team in the division. We ask whether anyone except the Seahawks passed this annual draft test in the NFC West. Finally, we reflect on the Ravens and their change in drama from previous seasons to a more calm approach. We question what happened to our interest in the team now that they are drama-free.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
