Fatherhood has been one of the greatest gifts and blessings of my life. As I prepare to celebrate Father's Day this weekend and soon enter a brand-new season as an empty nester, I've been reflecting on the journey of raising three incredible kids over the last 23 years. The truth is, there's no playbook for being a parent. No manual. No perfect formula. You learn by diving in, showing up, making mistakes, and loving with your whole heart. In this heartfelt episode, I share the lessons, memories, and wisdom that have shaped me as a father—from those 4 a.m. newborn moments with Luke sleeping on my chest, to coaching my kids on the field, to preparing to watch all three of them spread their wings and chase their dreams. Whether you're a dad, mom, grandparent, coach, mentor, or simply someone who values family, this episode is a powerful reminder that the greatest impact we make often happens at home. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why every season of parenting deserves to be appreciated and embraced. How becoming a parent deepens your purpose and changes your perspective forever. The power of creating meaningful experiences and memories with your family. Why the daily routines, values, and habits you instill matter more than any vacation or milestone. The bedtime affirmation that shaped the Durkin family culture for nearly two decades. How coaching your kids can strengthen your relationships and create unforgettable moments. Why volunteering, mentoring, and being involved in your children's activities matters so much. The life-changing lesson Todd learned from his father about the value of time. How "special time" with your kids can leave an imprint that lasts a lifetime. Why fathers and mothers play an irreplaceable role in shaping future generations. The emotions, excitement, and gratitude that come with entering the empty-nester chapter of life. A powerful reminder that time is our most precious commodity—and we can't afford to waste it. Fatherhood or parenting isn't about being perfect. It's about being present. It's about showing up day after day, creating experiences, building character, teaching values, and loving your kids through every season of life. As I look back on 23 years of being a Dad, what stands out most isn't the accomplishments, the awards, or the milestones—it's the moments. The conversations. The trips. The routines. The laughter. The lessons. The time. And as I prepare for this next chapter with all three of my children now pursuing their own dreams, I'm reminded that our role as parents isn't to keep our kids close forever—it's to help them grow wings and fly. If this episode spoke to you, please share it with a father, mother, coach, mentor, or someone who has made a lasting impact on your life.

Where does your tithe actually go? How should Christians think about money, generosity, and stewardship?In this powerful message, Pastor Zion shares a transparent, behind-the-scenes look at how manages finances, supports ministry, and invests in the next generation. From biblical principles of stewardship to a detailed breakdown of church budgets, missions, outreach, and building expansion, this sermon reveals how generosity fuels life change.You'll discover: • 10 Biblical principles of stewardship • Where church tithes and offerings go • How 2911 Church practices financial transparency • The vision behind the “For the Future” campaign • Why generosity impacts generations to come • Incredible testimonies of God's provisionThis message is a call to dream for the Kingdom, trust God with your resources, and be part of something bigger than yourself.“Lord, if You place it in my hands, I will place it in Yours.”Key Scriptures: • Psalm 24 • Proverbs 11 • Ephesians 3 • Matthew 25 • 1 Corinthians 4
The Kingdom Impact of a Mother 2 Timothy 1:1-7 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise of life which is in Christ Jesus, 2 To Timothy, a beloved son: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord. 3 I thank God, whom I serve with a pure conscience, as my forefathers did, as without ceasing I remember you in my prayers night and day, 4 greatly desiring to see you, being mindful of your tears, that I may be filled with joy, 5 when I call to remembrance the genuine faith that is in you, which dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice, and I am persuaded is in you also. 6 Therefore I remind you to stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands. 7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. Discipleship Creates Kingdom Impact 2 Tim. 3:15 “From childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. Acts 16:2 He (Timothy) was well spoken of by the brothers at Lystra and Iconium. Genuine Faith “Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall” (Prov. 16:18).
This Mother's Day sermon from Chandler Street Church of Christ explores how God's kingdom often comes through small and hidden beginnings. In Matthew 13:31–33, Jesus compares the kingdom to a mustard seed and leaven. In John 6, a boy brings five loaves and two fish, something that looks too small for the need, but Jesus uses it to feed thousands.Sometimes we think our small acts of faithfulness do not matter: showing up, praying, serving, sending a text, making a phone call, encouraging someone, or taking one step outside what is familiar. But small does not mean insignificant. Hidden does not mean inactive. Slow does not mean God is absent.This message also reflects on Mother's Day, Praise in the Plaza, and what it means for the church to become a people who bring what we have to Jesus and trust Him with the increase.Sermon Text: Matthew 13:31–33Supporting Text: John 6:1–13Series: The Flow ReleasedSpeaker: Lane BrownChurch: Chandler Street Church of Christ#SmallStepsRealKingdomImpact#MustardSeed#LoavesAndFish#KingdomOfGod#ChurchOfChrist#Sermon#ChristianSermon#MotherSunday#Faithfulness#JesusCanUseIt#BringWhatYouHave#Matthew13#John6#ChristianEncouragement#ChandlerStreetChurchOfChrist

In this episode, I sit down with JD Bauman to talk about how we can truly use our careers and businesses to make a meaningful impact for God's Kingdom. We unpack the idea that your career is actually one of your biggest mission fields (we're talking 80,000+ hours of your life), and how being intentional about the problems you solve can completely change the level of impact you make. JD shares powerful insights on "earning to give," why strategic generosity matters, and how we can steward our time, talent, and money in a way that actually saves lives and creates lasting change. We also dive into the realities of global poverty and how to move from good intentions to real, measurable impact. __________________________________________________________ Ready for more?

James Waters, founder of Kingdom Impact and leader in development of the Christian Impact Framework, joins Cody and Kealan to share how God reshaped his life from personal loss and restless success into a calling at the intersection of research, mission, and stewardship. After encountering Christ during university and later witnessing both the beauty and brokenness of global development work, James began asking deeper questions about how Christians can pursue meaningful impact without losing dependence on the Holy Spirit. Through his work, James now helps ministries, businesses, and givers think more clearly about spiritual and social impact, building frameworks that bring clarity without replacing prayerful discernment. He explores the tension between faithfulness and fruitfulness, showing how wise measurement can strengthen stewardship, deepen relationships, and ultimately give glory to God. At the same time, he acknowledges the challenges of pride, misplaced identity, and over-reliance on systems, pointing back to humility and obedience as the foundation for Kingdom impact. Consider how combining prayerful discernment with thoughtful strategy could reshape the way you pursue lasting Kingdom impact. Major Topics Include: Balancing faithfulness and measurable fruitfulness Stewardship through thoughtful impact measurement Tension between strategy and Holy Spirit dependence Defining and clarifying spiritual impact outcomes Avoiding noise by focusing measurement priorities Humility and teachability in Kingdom work Relational generosity versus transactional giving Identity, pride, and the savior mindset in giving Integrating prayer with strategic decision-making Diversity of callings in Kingdom impact QUOTES TO REMEMBER “Measure the impact and give Him all the glory.” “If you measure everything, you kind of measure nothing.” “We're called to be accountable for our faithfulness, but true fruit comes from abiding in Jesus.” “There's a tension between faithfulness and fruitfulness, and that tension should lead us to humility.” “We need to be on our knees, and thinking, planning, and being diligent.” “The bigger trap for the giver is the savior mindset, which is ultimately rooted in pride.” “If an organization is not willing to learn, that's a bigger red flag than not having impact.” “There are Kingdom principles that can lead to a hundredfold return.” “I also believe that God celebrates wild sacrifice that looks like a complete waste.” “Success is just being obedient to what God has told you to do.” LINKS FROM THE SHOW Kingdom Impact Christian Impact Framework Accord Network EIDO Research Eagle Venture Fund (see our interview with General Partner Wes Lyons) Hope International (see our interview with founder, Jeff Rutt or CEO, Peter Greer) BIBLE REFERENCES FROM THE SHOW 1 Corinthians 3:6 | God Gives the Growth I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth. John 15:5 | Abiding Bears Fruit I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. Ephesians 3:10 | Manifold Wisdom Displayed So that through the church the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly places. Matthew 22:37 | Love God Fully And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.” Matthew 26:7–13 | The Alabaster Jar John 15:8 | Fruit That Glorifies God By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit and so prove to be my disciples. TAKE A STEP DEEPER On the Finish Line podcast, we are all about stories, seeing how God draws us into generosity over a lifetime. But sometimes these stories can leave us thinking, “What's that next step look like for me?” That's exactly why we've launched a whole new podcast called Applied Generosity which explores the full landscape of the generous life across 7 different dimensions of generosity. Applied Generosity helps make sense of the hundreds of stories we've shared on the Finish Line Podcast to help you find that best next step. If you've been inspired by these stories and want to take things to the next level, check out Applied Generosity anywhere you listen to podcasts or at appliedgenerosity.com.
Scripture reminds believers that we are ambassadors for Christ, entrusted with a divine mission that extends beyond ourselves. This message presents evangelism not as an obligation, but as the natural outflow of a genuine encounter with Christ. It emphasizes that the call to share the gospel is not reserved for a few, but given to every believer.Evangelism is framed as disciple-making, rooted in the understanding that the harvest is supernatural and must be approached as such. The message highlights the role of prayer and dependence on God, showing that if we truly believe the gospel, it should be evident in our willingness to share it. Faith is not only confessed, it is expressed through action.It also brings clarity to the purpose of the power received through the Holy Spirit, not for performance, but for service, for strengthening the local church, and for witnessing. Kingdom impact, therefore, is not passive. It calls for intentional participation from every believer, with lives that reflect both the message of the gospel and the power by which it is carried.

In this message from Generation Church, Pastor Ryan Visconti continues the Money Myths series with a transparent and practical teaching on church stewardship and finances.Many people wonder what happens to the money that is given at church. How are tithes and offerings used? How does a church create a budget, manage debt, fund ministry, support missions, and care for people in need? In this sermon, Pastor Ryan gives a rare behind-the-scenes look at how church finances work and why biblical stewardship matters so much.Walking through key Scriptures on stewardship, integrity, budgeting, generosity, savings, legacy, and accountability, this message shows that everything belongs to God and that churches are called to handle His resources with wisdom and faithfulness.You'll also hear how Generation Church uses general funds and designated funds to support campuses, ministries, staffing, mercy outreach, foster care, food pantry ministry, global missions, and future growth. Most importantly, this message reminds us that faithful stewardship is not just about policies or procedures, it is ultimately measured by kingdom fruit.If you've ever asked, “Where does church money go?” or “Can I trust my church leaders with finances?” this message will help answer those questions with biblical clarity and practical insight.
Most podcasters chase downloads and revenue, while nonprofit leaders measure success differently. Michelle Saunders-Gottsch built the Altered Stories Ministry, reaching 80-plus countries and 160-plus women with God stories, focusing on kingdom impact rather than vanity metrics. Her measure of success is testimonies, faith transformations, marriage healing, and women feeling heard, not dollar signs.In this episode of Podcasting Secrets with host Nathan Gwilliam, Michelle reveals how childhood cult survivor story took 30 years to share becoming foundation for giving other women voices, why donations come FROM impact not the other way around when listeners in persecuted countries need hope, and multiple nonprofit monetization strategies including book royalties, fundraising events, sponsorships proving money enables MORE impact not less. Started after Focus on the Family broadcast training, Michelle demonstrates that kingdom metrics outweigh revenue metrics when building a sustainable ministry podcast.Want to build a podcast waitlist through relationships, not transactions? Focus on kingdom metrics like testimonies and transformations, not just downloads. Share this approach with ministry leaders chasing vanity metrics without measuring real change.

Join us for the 2026 National Disciple Making Forum: https://discipleship.org/2026-national-disciple-making-forum/ In this session from the DiscipleMakers podcast, Dave Buehring explains how churches can help marketplace leaders catch Jesus' kingdom vision for their vocations and live on mission where they work. You'll explore practical steps to envision, equip, and engage vocational teams, create a disciple-making culture, and mobilize professionals—teachers, doctors, business leaders, artists, and more—to reflect God's character and advance the kingdom in their spheres.
Forgiveness opens up the Kingdom of God in our lives, while unforgiveness hinders it. Rooted in Colossians 1 and 3, and the parable in Matthew 18, this message challenges us to give the forgiveness we've received. Forgiveness isn't approval of wrongdoing or pretending hurt didn't happen, it's a choice to release others and trust God to make things right, starting in our own hearts.

Our prayer is that as you listen, God would speak clearly to your heart, stir bold faith within you, and use your generosity to change lives for eternity.
In this episode of Fellowship of Kingdom Professionals, Michael Blue continues The Wisdom Prayer series by examining King Solomon's focused and unselfish request for wisdom. Drawing from Proverbs 4, Psalm 27, Isaiah 55, and Ecclesiastes 10, this teaching reveals why wisdom is more than knowledge; it is skill for living, leading, and reigning effectively. Solomon's prayer was not motivated by self-promotion, but by a desire to govern God's people with excellence, clarity, and efficiency. Using the powerful analogy of a sharpened axe, Blue explains how wisdom increases effectiveness while reducing unnecessary strain. When the edge is sharp, less strength is required—and more work gets done. If you desire a life and career that brings glory to God, good to people, and gratification to your soul, this episode will guide you in praying the wisdom prayer.
