How often do you feel the need to think about what you're thinking about? That's the premise of Pastor Mike's new upcoming sermon series, What Was I Thinking? Pastor Mike and Amber dive into this four-part series that looks at whether what we're thinking matches with what God's thinking. In their always-interesting dialogue, we discover what are Pastor Mike's Monday blues and how he combats them, that Amber tells Satan to shut up all the time, one thought that's still hard for each of them to shake even though they know it's not true, why some of the lies we tell ourselves are so dangerous, and why Amber needs blunt friends.BONUS!

Does Your Faith Seem Stuck? Do you ever feel like you're not growing in your faith the way you're supposed to? It turns out, there are forces working against you--threats to your faith--trying to keep you from flourishing in your relationship with God. One of Jesus' parables--in fact, the one that gets the most space on God's sacred pages--deals with this very issue. It's the story about the sower, the seed, and the soil (Matthew 13). Just as a farmer doesn't toss seed on the ground to get rid of it, God never brings you into contact with his Word for no reason. A farmer wants fruit, and God wants to help you experience more joy, peace, love, etc. Mike Novotny is on today's episode talking about his book, What's Big Starts Small. In today's episode we chat about the six threats Jesus lists in the parable of the sower and the seed--pride, pain, worries, wealth, wants, and not waiting--and the corresponding strategies to overcome them. If you're wondering why your faith isn't working in some aspects of your life, today's episode is for you. Connect with Mike: Time of Grace.org

There are some questions and objections that keep skeptics from seeking faith. You may have asked those questions privately yourself. So if people are asking those questions, that's even more reason to tackle them head-on. Pastor Mike is joined by Time of Grace Creative Media Director, Nhia Yang, to give a sneak peek at July's TV message series, "Skeptical Faith." Nhia, a former skeptic herself who became a Christian in college, fires a few tough questions at Pastor Mike as he dives into the series. They also mention this month's resources, "More Tough Questions and How the Bible Answers Them" and "Tough Questions, Reasoned Answers." With biblical insight and practical wisdom, these two books show you how to communicate what Christians believe while also inviting others to meet the loving Savior whose truth sets us free.

What should be your main focus this summer? C.L. looks at a summer insect you'll probably come into contact with sooner or later to show us how we should be embracing this summer. The change of season is looked forward to by a lot of people for many different reasons, and sometimes summer is the best time to catch up on sleep. However, we have to be intentional about making the most out of our summer or it will just pass us by.C.L. mentions the new book by Time of Grace lead speaker, Pastor Mike Novotny, titled "What's Big Starts Small."

C.L. gets that what's cool and acceptable now, may not be cool and acceptable tomorrow—and most importantly, may not be what's best.Hit up C.L. on Twitter or Instagram: @ChampionLife23"The Nonmicrowaved Truth" is a Time of Grace production.

Pastor Mike shows how our relationship with Christ is key in how we behave toward those who have wronged us.If you have questions and want to know more about God, like what does he think of you, what exactly was Jesus all about, how do you get “saved” and just what exactly does it mean to “get saved,” and what you should do next, we want you to download this free resource Pastor Mike wrote called, The Basics: God.

Where do you start the journey of forgiveness? Is forgiveness a "one and done"? Or is it a process we need to deal with daily? What the Bible has to say about forgiveness is not only helpful and powerful; it's shockingly offensive.If you have questions and want to know more about God, like what does he think of you, what exactly was Jesus all about, how do you get “saved” and just what exactly does it mean to “get saved,” and what you should do next, we want you to download this free resource Pastor Mike wrote called, The Basics: God.

Why is it so hard to forgive? Here's a double whammy for you: not only is forgiving hard; it is offensive. It feels so offensive to let it go when someone sins against you and they deserve payback—but instead you're supposed to love and not seek revenge. So . . . how do you forgive? Pastor Mike and Dr. Bruce Becker from the Time of Grace team give you a sneak peek at the month of June's TV message series, "Freedom in Forgiveness." They also discuss the difference between forgiveness and reconciliation (spoiler: You CAN forgive without reconciliation), why Pastor Mike thinks we struggle so much with forgiving others, and how it is incredibly arrogant to say, "I can't forgive myself." Pastor Mike mentions this month's new resources, the "Freedom in Forgiveness" book AND journal, which invite you to take actionable steps toward healing through forgiveness. These resources were created with guided questions, learning prompts, and biblical truth to help you walk intentionally with Jesus through the process of forgiveness.

Churches today face the temptation of believing they are faithful while subtly compromising their values, especially when it comes to biblical sexual morality. It's an uncomfortable topic that needs to be addressed, Pastor Mike says, in order to enjoy God's gift of sex, to understand the consequences of falling to sexual temptations, and to see how God helps us through it all.Get a free download of Pastor Mike's book, "The Basics: God.

It's tempting to think that being a good enough Christian will lead to a good life. But Jesus warns us that because of our faith in him, we will suffer and have to endure pain. That begs the question: Then why risk everything for Jesus? The answer lies in a short letter from Jesus to a small first-century church suffering unimaginable persecution. It's an answer that still holds true for us today as we hold on to our faith while battling through the hard times.Get a free download of Pastor Mike's book, "The Basics: God. You. Jesus.
