Podcast appearances and mentions of Max Lucado

Pastor and bestselling author Max Lucado joins the Built Different Podcast to talk about his newest book, Tame Your Thoughts: Three Tools to Renew Your Mind and Transform Your Life, which released August 12th and is now available wherever books are sold. We discuss what it means to take every thought captive (2 Corinthians 10:5), renew our minds (Romans 12:2), and dwell on what is true (Philippians 4:8). Max shares how Scripture can become a filter for truth, helping us identify and replace the lies of our thoughts and emotions with God’s promises. Trust me, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss. Resources & Links:

Hello, my friend. I hope you're having a good day. Anxiety. It's an all-too-common part of our lives. The statistics, especially among young people, are staggering. I know there are legitimate concerns in our world that need attention. And I know there are times clinical intervention is the solution God provides to those who struggle. But I also know peace is possible.

Are you an overthinker? Do you think about something way longer than anyone else would? I know I do. I sit there and ruminate over things that most people would have let go of after just a couple minutes. This is the struggle I have- maybe you have this same struggle. So I was so excited when I came across this book this summer. It is a brand-new release by Max Lucado called *Tame Your Thoughts: Three Tools to Renew Your Mind and Transform Your Life. After seeing it, I bought this book immediately and read it in one day- it is so good! It is full of some truth and practical advice to help. I am going to share some of my favorite takeaways from his new book as well as from an older book called *Anxious for Nothing by Max Lucado. I highly recommend these books!

Week 2 of the Series The Only One. a Message by Max Lucado.

Disclaimer: This episode was filmed prior to the assassination of Charlie Kirk. But Glenn believes Max's message is needed now more than ever. The political world is divided, constantly at war with itself. In many ways, our own lives are not much different. Why do we constantly focus on the negative? Why are we in pain? Where is God amid our anxiety and fear? Why can't we ever seem to change? Pastor Max Lucado has found the solution: Stop thinking like that! It may seem easier said than done, but Max joins Glenn Beck to unpack the three tools he describes in his new book, “Tame Your Thoughts,” that make it easy for us to reset the way we think back to God's factory settings. In this much-needed conversation, Max and Glenn tackle everything from feeling doubt as a parent to facing unfair hardships to ... UFOs?! Plus, Max shares what he recently got tattooed on his arm.  Sponsors: Relief Factor Tired of pain controlling your life? Try Relief Factor's three-week QuickStart for only $19.95.

Glenn announces he has started a fundraiser for Charlie Kirk's wife and children. In major news, President Trump announced with a high degree of certainty that the alleged assassin has been captured and is in custody. Glenn argues that we should stop referring to Charlie Kirk as a conservative activist. Instead, we should call him a civil rights leader who was martyred because of his influence. Just the News CEO and editor in chief John Solomon joins to discuss what we know about the man who is in custody for allegedly assassinating Charlie Kirk. Glenn and John also discuss the dangers of using this atrocity to implement bad legislation. Glenn speaks with his viewers about their thoughts on Charlie's assassination. Stu reveals some of the information about Charlie's alleged assassin. Reports indicate that Charlie's alleged assassin was radicalized by the belief that conservatives are fascist. Oak Hills Church teaching minister Max Lucado joins to discuss Charlie Kirk's assassination and how to process this horror without losing ourselves to the darkness. Glenn discusses the importance of having compassion for the parents and family of Charlie Kirk's alleged killer.  If you are able, please donate at https://www.givesendgo.com/912Project.

2025晨鐘課－每天，都是新的起點 以歷史智慧滋養生活，點亮2025每一天！ 借鑑過去，活在當下，展望未來！ 粵語廣播網站 (時兆出版社授權錄製) https://soundcloud.com/mediahk Podcast@靈修廣播站 9月6日 足夠的恩典 他對我說：「我的恩典夠你用的，因為我的能力是在人的軟弱上顯得完全。」 哥林多後書 12：9   人們常覺得上帝賜予的不夠，總向上帝期待超過我們所應得的。在馬克斯．盧卡多（另譯陸可鐸，Max Lucado）的《天天有恩典》中，9月6日的靈修題目是《你所擁有的》。他在文中指出，上帝在十字架上彰顯的恩典已足夠拯救我們。 「也許你已經嘗試過宗教和信仰的各種操練，卻發現自己常常是在一口枯井邊。禱告看似空洞，目標也似乎難以實現，基督教變成了一張紋路扭曲的唱片，滿是高低起伏和跑調的音符。 「難道只有這些嗎？去教堂聚會，美妙的歌聲，忠實的奉獻，金色的十字架，三件套西裝，大詩歌班，皮革封面的《聖經》。這一切都很好，但是……它的核心在哪裡呢？…… 「想想保羅在〈哥林多前書〉第15章3節中的話：『我當日所領受又傳給你們的：第一，就是基督照聖經所說，為我們的罪死了。』 「這就是答案。似乎太簡單了。耶穌被殺、埋葬、復活了。驚訝嗎？真正重要的是十字架。不多也不少。」 在我們踏上靈程，生活在這個充滿罪惡和痛苦的世界時，上帝賜予我們拯救的恩典，甚至鼓勵我們祈求更多的祝福（太7：7–11）。事實很簡單，上帝已經提供了我們得救所需的一切，我們可以確信，「我什麼時候軟弱，什麼時候就剛強了。」（林後12：10）讓我們每天都為祂無限的救恩而心懷感恩。

If you've been listening to the podcast the past few weeks, you know we're talking about finding a new way of living through better thinking. So maybe you're ready to tackle some of those specific negative thought patterns that weigh us down. Guilt is a big one – all the should haves that hound us. But here's the good news: God has given us a tool to help deal with our guilt.

Dr. Ed Uszynski (Ph.D.) is back on the podcast to speak with Tim about a provocative cultural moment: when Max Lucado issued an apology to a multi-ethnic church in San Antonio, TX, following the death of George Floyd. The incident received mixed responses, positively received as being an act of racial reconciliation to being negatively critiqued as an act of bowing to the woke mob. So, Tim and Ed practice perspective-taking in order to understand these differing responses, and they explore some of the particulars and nuances that shape a point of view on a contentious issue. Show notes and a full transcript are available.

Coleton continued the series on the cultures needed in the church to see “the fame and deeds of God repeated in our time.” After exploring the **culture of the Gospel**, the **culture of pursuit**, and the **culture of blessing**, this message focused on creating a **culture of belonging**. Drawing from **Acts 2:42–47**, Coleton showed how the early church lived in deep community—devoted to teaching, fellowship, breaking bread, prayer, and meeting one another's needs. This kind of belonging allowed people to experience healing, not just through miracles, but through love, acceptance, and connection. Coleton contrasted the transformative encounters people had with Jesus—like Zacchaeus, Matthew, and the Samaritan woman. None of them were healed by dramatic miracles, but by an encounter with Jesus' love that removed shame, restored dignity, and changed their lives completely. That's what he longs for the church to embody: a place so full of love and welcome that people are healed inwardly. He explained that belonging is not passive; it requires **time, intentionality, and words of life**. Real connection happens when people are deeply known, when hospitality is practiced, and when members invest in each other with encouragement and truth. Belonging heals wounds of isolation, anxiety, addiction, shame, and self-doubt. Practically, Coleton shared how the church is aiming at this: building men's, women's, and youth connection teams and events, pursuing membership, hiring a Women's Pastor, and intentionally committing to practices like prayer, communion, and caring for needs. He challenged the church to participate by: 1. **Getting to know people** (not just surface friendliness). 2. **Doing for others what you want them to do for you** (practicing hospitality). 3. **Investing time** (because deep relationships require showing up and consistency). 4. **Using words of life** (speaking encouragement and truth that bring healing). Coleton closed with stories and research showing how **connection heals**—from addiction recovery research, to relational studies, to stories of transformation through affirming words. He called the church to embody belonging so that entering the community feels like encountering Jesus Himself. --- ## **Discussion Questions** ### **Understanding the Message** 1. Why do you think Acts 2:42–47 highlights fellowship, breaking bread, and meeting needs alongside prayer and teaching? 2. What do the stories of Zacchaeus, Matthew, and the Samaritan woman reveal about the power of simply being welcomed by Jesus? ### **Personal Reflection** 3. When have you personally experienced deep belonging in a church, family, or friendship? How did it impact you? 4. Where do you feel the greatest temptation to hide—shame, weakness, or struggles? How might belonging in community bring healing there? ### **Living it Out** 5. What's one step you can take this week to get to know someone beyond surface-level friendliness? 6. Who in your life needs to hear words of life and encouragement from you this week? What might you say to them? 7. How could you invest more intentional time into building relationships within the church? --- ## **Quotes from Authors in the Sermon** * **David Bradford, Ph.D. & Carole Robin, Ph.D.** – *Connect* > “In exceptional relationships, you feel seen, known, and appreciated for who you really are, not an edited version of yourself… Someone you're in an exceptional relationship with knows what's really going on with you because that someone really knows you.” * **Max Lucado** > “Something holy happens around a table that will never happen in a sanctuary… Hospitality opens the door to uncommon community. It's no accident that hospitality and hospital come from the same Latin word, for they both lead to the same result: healing.” * **Jeffrey Hall (University of Kansas study, 2018)** > “It takes about 40–60 hours of time spent together to form a casual friendship, it takes 80–100 hours to transition to calling each other a friend, and more than 200 hours to become ‘close' friends.” * **Brennan Manning** (Story of Larry Mulaney) > “It would be hard to describe in words the transformation that took place in Larry Malaney after that interaction… In the face of cursing and taunts his father affirmed him with a furious love, and changed the whole direction of his son's life.” * **Peter Scazzero** > “When we look for goodness and beauty in one another and speak honest words of life over one another, we become God with skin on for the other. Affirmations heal wounds, cover shame, and communicate how God sees us — as infinitely valuable and lovable.”

Dr. David Friedman speaks with bestselling author and pastor Max Lucado about his new book Tame Your Thoughts, which offers three practical, faith-based tools to help people break free from toxic thinking. Lucado explains how most of our 70,000 daily thoughts are negative, feeding anxiety, guilt, and fear—but with God's help, our minds can be renewed. He encourages listeners to practice “picky thinking,” recognize and challenge harmful thought patterns (what he calls UFOs: Untruths, False narratives, Overreactions), and replace them with truth from Scripture. Lucado emphasizes that it's never too late to change, and with God's grace, we can experience true peace and transformation.

Hi, friend. Thank you so much for joining me for the podcast this summer. I hope this series has been an encouragement to you, particularly if you're going through a difficult time. We've got some new stuff coming next week that I'm really excited about, but first we're going to put a bow on our study of the life of Joseph. If there's one thing you take from it, may it be this: we have a heavenly father who guides us with a sure hand.

Hello, friend. Welcome to the Encouraging Word Podcast. Did you know the Bible has something to say about crisis management? That might feel like a modern construct, but it's not. In Joseph's life he faced multiple crises, including an extended, widespread famine. So how did he get through it? A two-pronged approach – he approached the crisis with faith and then came up with a plan.

Week 4 of the Series Through It All. A Message by Max Lucado.

Hello, friend. I hope you're having a good day. Today's episode brings us to a pivotal moment between Joseph and his brothers. If you don't know what happens in the story, it powerfully illustrates what happens when the prince turns out to be your brother.

Max Lucado talks about his new role at Gateway Church, how to carry the trauma and disappointment of a congregation after the senior pastor has breached trust, how to know if and when you've crossed a moral line that requires resignation, and how to tame your thought life.

Hi, friend. Welcome to the Encouraging Word Podcast. If you've listened to the last few episodes, you've likely noticed a recurring theme: Joseph is resilient. He faced challenge after challenge, but kept bouncing back. How could he do that? Because he saw the bigger picture of an active, sovereign God.
