On this weeks episode we discuss Bullying. Last week Pete and I got in a lot of trouble from Charlotte about our shenanigans so we decided to tone it down and have a deeper discussion to show we can, kind of. plus I (Luke) was unwell lol. We talk our childhood and how we was bullied growing up and how we handled it and the lessons we learnt. We hope you enjoy and thank you all for the support on this journey as the honesty continues.

Big Waz regales us with stories epic, historical tales of canoe voyages. We chat about kissing and I (Luke) write a book called “It’s savage, absolutely savage” which is about bleeding from the rectum.
In this episode, I (Luke) discuss the sovereignty of God over politics. I try and lay a theological framework for thinking about the election. I also seek to encourage all to go and be Christ's witnesses throughout the world. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/luke15/support
This is a talk I (Luke) gave at Icthus, the student ministry I was involved in when I went to MSU when I was down there a few weeks ago. I spoke about our restoration and where it is found. This is content I have been wrestling with for a long time, and I hope this message is able to provide freedom to those who listen as it has for me.
Mark 4:1–20What can we learn?Is Jesus saying, only 1 in 4 get it or that the work is cut out for us? in other words we’ve got work to do.Reminds us that as Disciples we have the call to: prepare, plant, and water (1 Cor.3:6-9).6 I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God made it grow. 7 So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow. 8 The man who plants and the man who waters have one purpose, and each will be rewarded according to his own labor. 9 For we are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, God’s building. The seed is good!So what is the purpose of the seed? To Bear Fruit. What does it mean to bear fruit? What does fruit give us? Healthy lives, energy, refreshment, revitalizesWe’re not just to Bear Fruit but MUCH Fruit!John 15:8, This is to My Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be My disciples.Fruit is KARPOS – action, posterity, of enduring value The soil is the issue. (Mark 4:13-20 MSG):**All of these soil types can be prepared/changed.Our tendency is to look at others, but first, you need to ask, which soil am I? (Luke 6:41-41, Mt 7:3-5 “Log in your own eye…”)1. Am I interested in what the seed is supposed to do in my life?2. What are we doing about it? {Us vs Others}PathAm I just going through the motions?Seed cannot germinate without planting, watering and good soil.RockyHow does it make me feel?Wrapped up in emotion as long as things are going well then it’s okay, but as soon as difficulty comes then they cut and run.ThornyWhat will it do for me?Just not giving God a chance to do the work.Ready (good soil) {that means someone else has already done the preparation – I’m trying to prepare soil} Conclusion:Is it possible that Jesus is telling us, think about what we are doing? Why we are doing? How we are doing? What’s our role? All of it is determined by Who we are doing this for.Which one are We?
Warriors 24Knights 20The Warriors season is still alive – just.If there was ever a game they had to win it was this one, especially as Newcastle were missing almost half their starting XIII.They did, but made extremely hard work of it, with the result only confirmed by a Sam Lisone try with five minutes to go, to clinch a 24-20 victory.The away-game result will be a massive relief for everyone associated with the Mt Smart club, as a defeat in the circumstances would have been almost terminal.The Warriors were edgy all night, but showed great resolve to fight back after a flat first half, where nothing went right and they were down 12-2.Ken Maumalo capped a superb display with two tries, while the Auckland team were also bereft of luck, with at least two crucial refereeing calls going against them.There is still a lot to work on – and a better team would have punished for their first half display – but the team showed glimpses of their best in the second half with some compelling attack.But we can't forget that the Knights were severly weakened, with five players on State of Origin duty, including David Klemmer, Mitchell Pearce and Daniel Saifiti, while Kalyn Ponga was out injured.The Warriors worked hard in the first half, for no reward, but the biggest problem was the predictable nature of their attack.It's been an issue all year; little variation, change of angles or second phase, just sweeping side to side moves against a set defensive line. It also didn't help that there were the usual range of errors and poor execution.The Warriors spent most of the half camped in the Knights half but rarely came close, while Newcastle scored with their first real opportunity.There was some doubt over the try – and there will probably be an apology from the NRL forthcoming – as the officials seemed to miss a clear Mason Lino knock on.But aside from that, it continued a pattern from this Warriors season; lack of urgency from a fifth tackle rebound, followed by a poor defensive read, as a Lachlan Fitzgibbon offload put Sione Mata'utia over.The Knights soaked up the pressure, their team of greenhorns gaining confidence with every set, which also kept the vocal crowd in the game.David Fusitu'a came close after soaring for a Green bomb, before Fitzgibbon scored for the Knights on the hooter. There was an element of luck – as Fusitu'a failed to ground a Connor Watson grubber – but the Knights were rewarded for chancing their arm.Thankfully, the Warriors snapped out of their slumber after halftime, with three tries in space of 12 minutes.Peta Hiku grabbed the first – after a Blake Green double round – before the centre set up Maumalo with a wonderful no look pass at speed.A Knights penalty – one of several conceded by Jazz Tevaga – briefly stopped the comeback – before Maumalo was over again, following nice work from Kodi Nikorima and Hiku.Maumalo looked to have his hat trick in the 65th minute, with another spectacular diving finish, but the bunker claimed that the 24 year-old had lost the ball, when the end on replay suggested he regained control.That mistake was accentuated moments later when Mata'utia crossed near the posts. That try was also contentious, as the officials ignored the plight of Hiku, who was concussed on the ground, though the try also exposed poor Warriors defence.But Lisone was the late hero, as he showed great poise to scoop up a Green grubber and dive over.Warriors 24 (K Maumalo 2, P Hiku, S Lisone tries; I Luke 3 cons, pen)Knights 20 (S Mata'utia 2, L Fitzgibbon tries; M Lino 2 cons, 2 pens)Halftime: 12-2
Burnout is a big deal and people in the entrepreneurial space are particularly susceptible to it, Both Jonathan and I [Luke] have been there - more than once. In this episode we tackle the topic and how to avoid it and how to recover when you do experience it.

The Warriors' season is back on track, after an emphatic 30-10 win over the struggling Panthers.There's a long way to go in 2019, but the manner of this performance will warm the hearts around Mt Smart way.They were almost perfect on defence, repelling a staggering amount of Penrith pressure at their own end, and attacked with precision and power.The Panthers didn't help themselves, with their lack of confidence evident in a ton of errors, including some you probably won't see again in the NRL this season.It was a strong all round performance from the Warriors, led by the men in the engine room. Kodi Nikorima showed his value with another eye catching display, while Blake Green had his best game of the season.Penrith has always been a tough trip for the Warriors, who have had a bleak run at the foot of the Blue Mountains. Not one of the Warriors' 17 who took the field on Friday night were present the last time the Auckland club tasted success at Panthers Stadium, back in 2012. It's been mostly misery; the 62-6 humiliation in 2013, the 22-6 loss in 2014 to miss the top eight on points differential and the damaging 36-4 thumping last year at the hands of the 'baby Panthers'.Issac Luke was a late change for the Warriors, as Nathaniel Roache failed to recover from a back injury, while veteran Adam Blair missed the cut.Penrith were desperate. One of the pre-season title favourites, they had held a series of crisis meetings during the week, but to no avail as the Warriors made an impressive start.After defending their line for four consecutive sets, the visitors made the most of their first opportunity, with the mercurial Luke showing his value with a strong solo try. They extended their lead on the following set, after a 50 metre burst from dummy half by Nikorima, underlining the value of his raw pace. That stretched the Panthers, and Herbert powered over after Roger Tuivasa-Sheck had held up the defensive line.After a positive beginning, the Panthers looked in disarray, with 22 missed tackles recorded in the first quarter alone and Dallin Watene-Zelezniak dropped the ball cold with the line open to sum up their plight. After going ahead, the Warriors then slightly lost their way. They forced their hand, pushed things, instead of earning the right to play. Penrith still looked out of sorts, with a collision between two players as they tried to field a Green kick demonstrating their confusion.The highlight of the night was Nikorima's try in the 57th minute, as he dummied and stepped through for his first four pointer in Warriors' colours. Peta Hiku left with a suspected concussion early in the final quarter, but it didn't matter, as the result was sealed with 20 minutes to play. The Warriors had repelled more than 40 tackles, before Liam Martin finally crossed in the 71st minute. Agnatius Paasi had the final say, bulldozing over for his second try in two weeks, before Viliame Kikau's late consolation.Warriors 30 (I Luke, P Herbert, K Nikorima, A Paasi tries; P Herbert 7 goals)Panthers 10 (L Martin, V Kikau tries; N Cleary goal)Halftime: 14-0
We've taken you outside your religious world, now we're going to let you into our personal world. In this episode we get as real time as we ever have. I(Luke) went with my gut as we sat down to record this episode and asked Christa how she was feeling in the moment. What comes of this raw, vulnerable conversation is a couple choosing to find healing, transformation and awakening through infidelity, heartache, ownership, dedication and trusting that there is always light to be found within darkness.
The votes are in! The results are clear! I hear you all, shouting for more Jacey! I (Luke) am way stoked to share this episode of my buddy @ProfessorPFM 's podcast Nilbog's Tavern as everyone's favorite sorta Halfling. Jacey has a drink with a little goblin fellow, then is followed by Luke and Pat IRL talking about D&D and other nerd gunk. Be sure to check out Pat's shows and episodes as well. Also, keep looking for other collaborations with @ProfessorPFM. We might have something else in the works...
With Jacey locked in Vajevo Keep, the Goat Pimps are (for some reason) again called upon to right some terrible wrong! The crew must fend off not one, but two competing bands of bandits, causing almost as much mayhem as themselves! During our break, I give a special shout out to both our new friends with the @rolllikeagirl podcast and @ProfessorPFM with the @SeaDogsPodcast. I (Luke) was able to guest as Jacey Lakims on a speical #NilbogsTavern episode, which was lots of fun! Check both of these shows out!

Ever wonder if jellyfish and other fish have assholes? Yeah, me too...but don't worry, we learned all about it in this episode! Also, Derrek had some stories to tell about his trip home to the boonies, we learned that Devin has a "dangerous something", and I (Luke) ranted a bit about how much I hate frozen bread. News stories covered on this episode include Rodney King's death (also a look back at the LA riots and how they changed the world), a man who killed a man who was trying to rape his 5 year old daughter (listen to hear the outcome), and Adam Carolla's recent comment about how women aren't funny (how much truth is there to that and who are some funny female comedians?). I'd say that this episode will "rock you like a hurricane", but I think that's trademarked, so instead we'll rock you, but not TOO much...but a bit...like a blustery day...with high winds.

While Luke's gone the girls will play. Lisa, Tina and Belinda chit chat about the 10,000th episode of One Life to Live and do a bit of drooling and gushing over Nathan Fillion and Dan Gauthier as the reminisce about the "good old", and I (Luke) do mean "old", days of One Life to Live.
