In this episode, I sit down with Brenna Blain for one of the most honest conversations I've had on the podcast. We talk about what it really looks like to follow Jesus while still battling mental illness, trauma, and temptation. Brenna shares her powerful story from growing up in church as a pastor's kid, abuse, same-sex attraction, and deep seasons of depression. We talk about what it means to suffer well, how motherhood can actually disciple us, and why God's goodness doesn't always look like the comfort we expected - yet we hold fast to the promise that God heals always, even if it's not on this side of eternity. If you've ever asked, “Can I still love Jesus and feel this broken?” this episode is for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this continuation of last week's episode, my mom, Ms. Yvette and I move past trials we've faced together and into the transformation we've witnessed.

In this deeply personal and long-awaited Mother's Day episode of In Totality, I sit down with one of the most important people in my life - my mom. This conversation is raw, honest, and full of the kind of love only a mother and daughter can share. We open up about our journey together - how my mom came to know Jesus, how our relationship has evolved over the years, and the very real struggles we've faced as a family. I share openly about my battles with mental health, and my mom shares how she leaned on the Lord's strength and wisdom to walk with me through some of the darkest moments of my life. This is a story of faith, perseverance, and the kind of love that covers even the hardest seasons. Whether you're a mother, daughter, or someone in the middle of your own healing journey, I pray this conversation brings you hope and reminds you that God truly meets us in every valley.

In this week's episode of In Totality, I'm back with my dear friends, CD and Melody Fabien, for Part II of our powerful conversation on purity, obedience, and trusting God in the waiting. If Part I stirred something in your spirit, this next part goes even deeper.We're talking about what it really looks like to walk out a set-apart relationship—one that honors God even when it's countercultural. From setting boundaries to choosing obedience over ease, this couple shares how their faith shaped their love story beyond just waiting for marriage.I pray this episode encourages you to lean into God's process, even when it feels slow or misunderstood.

When God writes your love story, it looks different from the world's version — and it's worth the wait.In today's episode of In Totality, I sit down with two of my dear friends, a married couple whose very first kiss was at the altar on their wedding day. We talk about their individual journeys of salvation, the seasons of preparation God led them through, and the faith it took to trust Him every step of the way.Their story is powerful, but it's important to remember: while this may not be exactly what God is specifically calling you to do in your waiting season, He is calling all of us to live lives of obedience, faith, and consecration.We dive deep into what it means to honor God not just in dating, but in every part of our walk with Christ. If you've ever wondered if it's still possible to live set apart in relationships today, this conversation will remind you: it is, and it's beautiful.Whether you're single, dating, or already married, I pray this episode encourages you to trust God's timing, obey His leading, and believe that His plans for you are better than anything you could write on your own.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this compelling episode, Pastor Karl dives into Romans 14, exploring what he calls "Applied Christianity." This chapter challenges both seasoned and new believers to navigate the balance between personal freedom in Christ and public restraint for the sake of others. Pastor Karl unpacks the concept of spiritual maturity, emphasizing private liberty and public restriction as biblical principles rooted in love. He addresses the tension between those strong in faith, who live in the freedom of grace, and those weak in faith, who adhere to stricter rules, using the historical context of meat sacrificed to idols to illustrate disputable matters. Through practical examples like alcohol, Halloween, and homeschooling, Pastor Karl highlights how non-essential issues should not divide the church. He introduces the "law of love," urging listeners to prioritize others' faith over personal freedoms, and explains the Bema Seat judgment, where Christians are rewarded for their sacrifices, not judged for salvation. Join Pastor Karl for a thought-provoking discussion on living out faith with grace, love, and unity.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 9:00am & 10:30am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

When my son was diagnosed with autism at age two—and later with Fragile X syndrome—I entered a kind of grief I wasn't prepared for. It wasn't loud or dramatic. It was quiet, slow, and deeply sacred. It was the grief of letting go of the life I imagined and learning to embrace the one God was writing.In this deeply personal episode, I open up about the pain, surrender, and beauty that come with raising a child with special needs while clinging to faith in Jesus. I talk about the silent ache of broken expectations, the sacredness of honest lament, and the unexpected closeness of God in the middle of it all.Grief doesn't always come from death—it often comes from the loss of an idea, a dream, or a version of life we thought we'd have. But even there, God is present. Even in our most unspoken sorrows, He is faithful. And even when healing doesn't look the way we hoped, He still gets the glory.If you've ever carried a grief you didn't choose, or wrestled with faith in the face of life's hardest questions, this episode is for you. May it remind you that you're not alone—and that hope still lives here, too.Listen now on all audio platforms.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode of In Totality, I'm talking about what it means to truly live as a sacrifice for God.As Christians, we love the idea of purpose, calling, and blessing, but what about surrender? What about the moments when obedience costs you relationships, opportunities, reputation—or comfort? Scripture tells us to offer our lives as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God… but are we really willing to endure suffering and persecution for His name's sake?Whether your walk with Christ means walking away from what's easy, what's popular, or what makes sense to the world — it's worth it! If you've ever wrestled with obedience when it's hard, or felt the weight of standing firm in your faith, this conversation is for you!Tune in and be reminded: He is worthy of it all!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode of In Totality, I had the pleasure of speaking with Carl Lentz for a vulnerable, honest, and meaningful conversation about grace, redemption, and what a renewed faith looks like.This is Carl's first time on the podcast, and we didn't hold back. We talked about the power of God's correction, and the process of rebuilding faith, and what it means to live fully dependent on God — even in the private, hidden places too.If you've ever felt disqualified, distant, or unsure of how to move forward with your faith, I pray this episode reminds you: God still calls, covers, and invites us to walk with Him toward wholeness.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Have you ever felt on fire in your faith, only to wake up one day and feel like God is distant? I know I have. It can be confusing, discouraging, and even a little scary. But here's what I've learned—these shifts aren't random. They're part of the faith journey.In this episode of In Totality, I'm diving into the spiritual cycles of consolation and desolation—those seasons when God feels incredibly close and those when He seems silent. Why does He allow these shifts? What is He teaching us in them? And how do we keep trusting Him when we don't feel Him?I want to remind you: God is just as present in the silence. If you've been walking through a dry season, questioning where God is, or just trying to hold onto faith when things feel uncertain, this episode is for you!

In this episode of In Totality, I share how stepping away from podcasting exposed where my trust in the Lord actually was… and where my pride had been hiding. I had to confront the uncomfortable reality that I was leaning more on my own strength than on God's strength.Through fasting and prayer, seeking His face daily, and surrendering to His way, I learned that faith isn't just believing in God—it's trusting Him completely, with everything, even when it's hard to do.If you've ever struggled with self-reliance, or the fear of letting go of control, this episode is for you!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Welcome back to In Totality! Have you ever found yourself so caught up in the busyness of life that your time with the Lord becomes more about what you need from Him rather than just truly centering Him? That's where I found myself at the end of last year, and I knew I needed to step away. In this episode, I'm sharing why I took time off from social media and the podcast, what God revealed to me through a week of prayer and fasting, and how He's calling us to a daily dependence on Him. Fasting stretched me, refined me, and renewed my heart—and maybe it's something God is calling you to as well. What would it look like to truly depend on the Lord daily? Tune in and let's talk all about it. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

How could it be true that God withholds no good thing from those who walk uprightly? I spent years trying to make God's ways align with my definition of goodness, but nothing ever seemed to click. Finally, I realized I actually needed to redefine what goodness meant to me. It was not an easy process, let me tell you, but it has formed me for the better. My friend Lysa has been on the same journey of redefining everything in a life that has upended every expectation she had. While our pain has taken completely different forms, she is my sister in suffering whose extraordinary character has been formed by hardship, not in spite of it. No one is more qualified to coach us on identity formation than Lysa TerKeurst. I'm inspired and challenged by who she is today and who she is still becoming, and I think you will be too.

In this episode of the Reformed Brotherhood, Jesse and Tony dive into the topic of sacrament eligibility, focusing heavily on the theology and practices surrounding the Lord's Supper. Beginning with a discussion on the biblical foundations of worthy participation, the hosts explore the requirements for partaking in communion, emphasizing the importance of self-examination and reconciliation within the covenant community. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 11 and the Scots Confession, they unpack the critical elements of discerning the body of Christ and evaluating one's faith and relationships before coming to the table. The conversation extends to the role of church leadership in fencing the table, highlighting the balance between pastoral oversight and personal responsibility. Jesse and Tony emphasize that while the bar for participation in the Lord's Supper is not insurmountably high, it nevertheless requires maturity, faith, and a proper understanding of the sacrament. They also explore the broader implications of communion readiness, noting how it ties into the daily rhythms of Christian living and our relationships with God and others. Finally, the hosts touch on the practical aspects of preparing for communion, including the importance of ongoing introspection and pastoral guidance. They encourage listeners to approach the Lord's Supper with reverence, ensuring that it remains a time of worship, proclamation, and unity within the church. This episode serves as a thoughtful guide to understanding and practicing the Lord's Supper in a way that honors Christ and strengthens the covenant community. Key Points: The Biblical Basis for Self-Examination: The hosts discuss Paul's instruction in 1 Corinthians 11, emphasizing the need for self-examination and discernment before participating in the Lord's Supper. Reconciliation Within the Covenant Community: The importance of resolving conflicts and maintaining unity with fellow believers as part of preparing to partake in communion is explored in detail. The Role of Pastoral Leadership: Jesse and Tony highlight the role of pastors in guiding their congregations through the process of fencing the table and ensuring members are spiritually prepared. Communion Readiness Across Ages: The episode addresses the question of when children and new believers are ready to participate in the Lord's Supper, emphasizing spiritual maturity over age. The Gravity of the Lord's Supper: The hosts stress the need to approach communion with a deep understanding of its significance as both an act of worship and a proclamation of the Gospel. Questions for Reflection: How can you prepare yourself better for the Lord's Supper in your daily walk with Christ? Are there any unresolved conflicts in your life that you need to address before coming to the table? How can pastors and church leaders balance oversight with encouraging personal responsibility in fencing the table? What role does self-examination play in your spiritual life, and how does it shape your participation in communion? How can families and churches work together to teach children and new believers about the significance of the Lord's Supper?

In this episode of the Reformed Brotherhood, Jesse and Tony delve into the intricate topic of sacrament administration, focusing on who is authorized to administer sacraments within the church. The discussion is set against the backdrop of historical church practices and the theological underpinnings of the Reformed tradition. The hosts emphasize the importance of understanding both the form and function of sacraments, as well as the qualifications required for those who administer them. A significant portion of the episode is dedicated to exploring the role of ministers in sacrament administration. The hosts argue that sacraments are not merely ceremonial acts but are deeply embedded in the theological and ecclesiastical framework of the church. They discuss the implications of allowing only ordained ministers to administer sacraments, pointing out the potential pitfalls of non-ordained individuals performing these sacred rites. Throughout the episode, Jesse and Tony address common misconceptions about sacraments and highlight the necessity of adhering to proper practices as outlined in Reformed theology. They also touch upon the historical context of these practices, referencing figures like John Knox and the importance of maintaining doctrinal integrity in sacramental administration. The episode concludes with a call for listeners to reflect on their understanding of sacraments and their role within the church. Key Points: The necessity of ordained ministers in administering sacraments. The theological significance of sacraments in the Reformed tradition. The historical context and evolution of sacrament practices. The importance of proper elements and procedures in sacrament administration. Misconceptions about who can administer sacraments and why it matters. Questions for Reflection: Why is it important for sacraments to be administered by ordained ministers? How do sacraments function within the broader framework of Reformed theology? What are the potential consequences of improper sacrament administration? How do historical practices influence contemporary views on sacraments? In what ways can individual congregations ensure the integrity of their sacramental practices?

In this episode of the Reformed Brotherhood, Jesse Schwamb and Tony Arsenal delve into the theological depths of the sacraments, focusing particularly on the Lord's Supper as articulated in the Scots Confession. They explore the intricate relationship between faith and the sacraments, emphasizing John Knox's perspective on the spiritual and mystical union believers experience through the Lord's Supper. The hosts discuss how this union is not merely symbolic but a profound means of grace that assures believers of their faith and salvation. The conversation also touches on the nature of assurance in faith, as discussed in the Westminster Confession, highlighting the tension between the assurance given by the Holy Spirit and the believer's subjective experience of it. They stress that the sacraments, while ordinary in appearance, are extraordinary in their spiritual significance when apprehended by faith, serving as a means for believers to partake in the grace of God. Furthermore, Schwamb and Arsenal address the broader implications of sacramental theology within the church, including the importance of church discipline and the proper administration of the sacraments. They encourage listeners to reflect on their own experiences with the Lord's Supper, urging them to approach the sacrament with reverence and faith, trusting in the Holy Spirit's work to bring forth fruit in their spiritual lives. Key Points: The Lord's Supper is a means of grace that provides believers with assurance of their faith and salvation through a mystical union with Christ. The sacraments require faith to be effective, serving as more than mere symbols but as channels of divine grace. John Knox's theology emphasizes the importance of distinguishing between the signs and the realities they signify in the sacraments. Assurance of faith is a complex topic, with the Holy Spirit continually testifying to believers of their status as God's children, regardless of their subjective feelings. Proper administration and understanding of the sacraments are crucial for maintaining church discipline and spiritual nourishment. Questions for Reflection: How does your understanding of the sacraments impact your experience of the Lord's Supper? In what ways can you cultivate a deeper appreciation for the spiritual realities signified in the sacraments? How does the concept of assurance in faith influence your daily walk with Christ?

This week Christian is joined by Joshua Noel of the Whole Church Podcast (https://the-whole-church-podcast.captivate.fm/) and the Dummy for Theology Podcast (https://dummy-for-theology.captivate.fm/) to discuss Exodus 19. How long did the Israelites remain at Mt. Sinai? Are Horeb and Sinai the same? What does it mean for Israel to be a kingdom of priests? What is the documentary hypothesis? Why did God ask the people to clean themselves and abstain from sex? Why was Mt. Sinai holy? Mentioned in this episode:Zencastr ad. Use code LETNOTHINGMOVEYOU for 30% off your Zencastr subscription!

Can Christians lose their salvation? It's a question that *almost* all believers have asked about themselves or others at one point. Depending on what church denomination you grew up in or have studied, the answer may be yes or no. In this episode of Everyday Theology, Jacob shares with us the truth about what the Bible says about our salvation and sets the record straight. Check it out and share it with a friend or two ;) Resources: How Do I Know I'm Saved? | https://bit.ly/3WqPlT2 What Happens When We Die? | https://bit.ly/4a1iOWD See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We hear about sin. The damage and separation from God it causes. We sometimes even use it in a way that can be twisted to the positive, such as "that cake was sinful." But what exactly is sin? Why is it so damaging, and should be taking it more seriously than maybe we are? On this episode of Everyday Theology, Jacob takes us back to the basics to share with us what sin is and why we should care about it. Be sure to check it out!

Scott Aniol is back, and he and Steve discuss a common error in the church today. Namely, many churches and believers mistakenly use language as to suggest that they are receiving personal revelation, straight from God. Episode Chapters: 9:11 - Reflection on individuals claiming divine messages from the Bible, contrasting with Moses' unique communication with God. 12:33 - Challenges in interpreting divine guidance and expressions among Christians. 17:58 - The danger of relying on personal feelings over the wisdom of the Book of Proverbs and Scripture. 22:39 - The weight of claiming divine communication and the importance of aligning with biblical standards. 27:38 - Warning against insubordinate preaching and teaching, emphasizing the weight of the calling. 32:30 - The impact of embracing charismatic music in non-charismatic churches and its influence on theology and worship. 36:53 - The importance of illumination in understanding and accepting God's word for believers. 41:09 - It's imperative to correctly utilize scripture, church doctrine, and collective wisdom for theological understanding. 45:23 - Final caution against claiming divine guidance in decision-making, emphasizing credit to God but acknowledging human wisdom. End of Episode Chapters. We hope that today's episode has been helpful in your walk with our Lord. -Grounded team
