This week's discussion features Judah Thomas, Lenny Salgado, Johnny V., Mike McHugh, and James Gowell. Edited by: Tim NicholsonBonus: 1980's Martial Art MoviesJoin us for our new study on the Book of James, wait a minute, we have a theme going here, the brothers of Jesus. James kicks us off again this week by sharing scripture that stood out, "religion that God our Father sees as pure and faultless is this, to look after orphans and widows who are in distress and to not be corrupt by the world". He shares of the Holy Spirit working in and through us and having eyes to see and ears to hear those that are hiding or struggling in the shadows.Judah then brings up the line just before this verse about taming the tongue and how this overlaps with modern day, taming our thumbs.Lenny shares an experience prior to the start of Thrive Church where he was struggling looking at himself in the mirror. He had to learn to love himself, before he could love others.Mike jumps in and shares about not just reading or listening to the Word, but being a "Do'er" of the Word. He shares the importance of being quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger.Judah then shares how certain people, famous people, famous pastors, have a following of people are quick to slam them when they mess up and forgetting that we are all broken, sinful humans. Instead, approaching things with gentleness and kindness. Again, controlling our tongues and or thumbs.We wrap up pretty quickly, however for those loyal listeners, there is a solid 10+ minutes of our pre-podcast recording where we are chatting about old 1980's martial arts movies.Enjoy and we appreciate you listening.We encourage you to read James with us and comment on what has been sticking out to you?Have a blessed day.For more information visit: www.thrive.churchIf you would like to give financially you can do so here: www.thrive.church/give/If you need prayer email us at prayer@thrive.churchThis is a presentation of Thrive.Church©All Rights Reserved

Summer AnthemIn part one of this sermon series, Pastor Josiah explores the concept of 'magnifying' God in our lives. Just as David wrote this psalm while fleeing from his own son, we too can choose to bless the Lord at all times, even in our darkest moments. This summer, let's make magnifying God our anthem, transforming our outlook and approach to life's ups and downs.Join us for Thrive Church In person (more info here) or Online Sundays 2:30PM (MT) on Youtube Want to partner with Thrive Church: https://www.thrivecalgary.ca/give-onlinehttps://www.thrivecalgary.ca

Stretch In part three of this series, Pastor Josiah explains how  we often find ourselves yearning for God's clear direction, much like the dramatic signs and wonders of the Old Testament.  This message reminds us that God's voice today is often a gentle whisper.

StretchIn part two of this powerful series, Pastor Josiah challenges us to examine our spiritual maturity through the lens of personal preference versus kingdom purpose.  We're called to let go of our own way and take up our cross, just as Jesus did in the Garden of Gethsemane. This letting go is not just a one-time act, but a continuous process of spiritual growth. This journey of faith asks us to align our priorities with God's, even when it's uncomfortable or inconvenient. It's a call to live out Matthew 6:33, seeking first the Kingdom of God in all aspects of our lives.Join us for Thrive Church In person (more info here) or Online Sundays 2:30PM (MT) on Youtube Want to partner with Thrive Church: https://www.thrivecalgary.ca/give-onlinehttps://www.thrivecalgary.ca

Stretch:In part one of this message series, Pastor Josiah challenges us to 'stretch' our faith and step out of our comfort zones. We're encouraged to let go of past failures, victories, and even personal preferences that might be holding us back from God's upward call. Just as Paul speaks of forgetting what's behind and reaching forward to what's ahead (Philippians 3:12-14).God's plans often require us to stretch beyond what's comfortable, but it's in this stretching that we grow and bear the fruit of the Spirit.Join us for Thrive Church In person (more info here) or Online Sundays 2:30PM (MT) on Youtube Want to partner with Thrive Church: https://www.thrivecalgary.ca/give-onlinehttps://www.thrivecalgary.ca

God's love isn't silent – it actively speaks into our lives, shaping our identity and purpose.

The story of Jesus conquering death and the grave isn't just a historical event - it's a powerful metaphor for how God's love can overcome any obstacle in our lives.

"Love___" In part two of this series, Pastor Josiah delves into the story of Zacchaeus from Luke 19. Just as Jesus sought out Zacchaeus, God is actively seeking each of us, calling us by name. The sycamore tree Zacchaeus climbed represents our own efforts to reach God, but we learn that true connection comes when we 'come down' from our self-reliance and accept God's invitation to fellowship. This message invites us to experience the transformative power of God's love, which not only saves us but also changes how we see and seek others.Join us for Thrive Church In person (more info here) or Online Sundays 2:30PM (MT) on Youtube Want to partner with Thrive Church: https://www.thrivecalgary.ca/give-onlinehttps://www.thrivecalgary.ca

Living on PurposeIn part four of this message series, we are challenged to rethink our understanding of identity in Christ. The key insight is that our spiritual identity is something we receive, not achieve. we are known, set apart, and equipped by God.

Our true identity is rooted in being sons and daughters of God, made in His image and likeness.Join us for Thrive Church In person (more info here) or Online Sundays 2:30PM (MT) on Youtube Want to partner with Thrive Church: https://www.thrivecalgary.ca/give-onlinehttps://www.thrivecalgary.ca

Living on PurposeIn part three of this series, Pastor Josiah explores that in our journey of faith, we often encounter seasons that feel purposeless—our own spiritual wilderness.

Living on PurposeIn part two of this series, Pastor Josiah reminds us just as David rejected Saul's ill-fitting armor, we must discern what truly fits our unique design. While we all share the broad purpose of knowing God and making Him known, how we express this is beautifully diverse. As we serve others and seek godly counsel, we refine our understanding of our purpose, realizing it's not just about personal fulfillment, but about being a vital part of God's masterplan.Join us for Thrive Church In person (more info here) or Online Sundays 2:30PM (MT) on Youtube Want to partner with Thrive Church: https://www.thrivecalgary.ca/give-onlinehttps://www.thrivecalgary.ca

Living on Purpose: In part one of this series, Pastor Josiah emphasizes that our purpose goes beyond mere coincidence or chance - it's a divine design. God has crafted us as His masterpiece, with plans for good, hope, and a future. Just as a map is useless without knowing true north, our lives can feel directionless without the anchor of God's truth.  As we align ourselves with this truth, we're better equipped to discern and live out our God-given purpose, even in challenging seasons.Join us for Thrive Church In person (more info here) or Online Sundays 2:30PM (MT) on Youtube Want to partner with Thrive Church: https://www.thrivecalgary.ca/give-onlinehttps://www.thrivecalgary.ca

It's Not You, It's Me In part three of this series, Pastor Josiah explores the complexities of our journey through life, and how we often encounter turbulent waters in our relationships.

These are the oars that can guide us through the roughest patches. As we apply these principles, we're not just floating aimlessly, but actively steering our relationships towards healing and growth.Join us for Thrive Church In person (more info here) or Online Sundays 2:30PM (MT) on Youtube Want to partner with Thrive Church: https://www.thrivecalgary.ca/give-onlinehttps://www.thrivecalgary.ca

It's Not You, It's Me In Part two of this series, Pastor Josiah poses the question: In our relationships, are we approaching conflicts with a 'win at all costs' mentality? This powerful message challenges us to rethink our approach to disagreements. Using the vivid metaphor of a tug-of-war rope, we're shown how seeking to 'win' arguments only tightens the knots in our relationships. Instead, we're called to pursue restoration and reconciliation. By speaking the truth in love, using careful timing and tone, we can transform conflicts into opportunities for growth.Join us for Thrive Church In person (more info here) or Online Sundays 2:30PM (MT) on Youtube Want to partner with Thrive Church: https://www.thrivecalgary.ca/give-onlinehttps://www.thrivecalgary.ca
