Did you know the Hebrew word for “hear” is the same word as “obey”? Jesus asked many times, “Are you listening with your heart as well as your head? Is what I am saying sinking in? Is it making a difference in your life?” How would you answer Jesus if he asked you the same questions?
Jesus gave us several very clear messages, the most important of which is “I am coming back.” Will you be ready for his return? And is there a 7 year tribulation and 1000 year aspect to his return? I say no, there is not. Tune in to find out more!

Imagine you have someone in your group – be it business, social or Bible Study - who is openly defying the rules and mores of the group. Unapologetically and unremorseful. How would you handle it? Today we look at how the Apostle Paul handled just such a dicey situation in Corinth: Tough love then soft love.
Even though Jesus admonishes us not to judge others, he does ask us to “help them take the speck out of their eye.” How do we reach out to someone to help them see their blind spot? With lots of grace, sprinkled with the truth.

Who was the worst dad in the Older Testament? In our last episode, we looked at the best dad in the New Testament- the father in Jesus' Parable of the Prodigal Dad. Today we contrast the best with the worst.
In this episode, we relook at the parable of the prodigal son and focus on who it may really be about....the dad? We look at it from a different perspective as we continue in our series on judging.

October 7, 2023 - The Hamas terrorist attack was Israel's “911.” I, Sam, a Christian, traveled with 14 Jews, none of whom I knew beforehand, but all of whom I came to love, to war-torn Israel on a “solidarity“ trip. Join me as I relate my experiences with freed hostages, wounded soldiers, military officers and high ranking government officials, amidst earth-shaking artillery, and emotionally draining yet incredibly inspiring encounters with victims and heroes.
What if you could have a heart that never judges? A heart that is open, soft, free of negativity? Wouldn't that be a wonderful to live. Today you will see the ill effects of judging and how to start to free yourself from its prison.
When a couple is getting married the man typically thinks he is adding an addition to his house (i.e. his life). But the woman thinks, “We are going to have a whole house renovation for our new lives together.” When it comes to our walk with Jesus, we tend to think the same way as the man. But Jesus wants to renovate our whole lives, not just be added on as an addition.
Are there areas in your life that are holding you back from being your best self? You have tried to rid yourself of them, but they still have a mastery over you? How to free yourself? Guardrails! Today we explore why we need guardrails, where we might need them, and what they might look like.

If Jesus has become a part of your life, you will look different than your previous self, and people will notice. Yes, you will be changed, and even more so you will be transformed. Have you been?

To live the A+ Life Jesus wants for us, we want to “Bump our Trajectory.” Where and how to start? Start with just that one thing. Ridding yourself finally of that one thing that you know is not helpful, that is holding you back. Or perhaps adding that one thing you know is missing.

When I asked the men, “Do you have a problem with judging?” - one replied, “No, actually I am pretty good at it.” That about sums it up, doesn't it? Jesus warns us: “For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged ….” Who among us is comfortable being judged in the same way we judge others?
