PODCAST

The bible contains several stories that are more terrifying than we might imagine by the sentiment in our modern culture. Today I look closely at Matthew 21 and some of the parables in that chapter.

Well, another end time prediction has not come true…listen in for more info.

Today we will talk about why it is important to take our moral conduct from the Bible alone instead of the culture.

On today’s walk we talk about the problems with the Church Growth movement and why it usually results in big churches that are devoid of Christian behavior.

Today we talk about why unity does not always follow in line with Christians. We are exhorted to be unified but it is not often the practice and this video discusses that problem.

Today’s daily walk we will discuss proclaiming the truth in a hostile world. Sadly the hostility of false teaching and viewpoints are becoming highly pervasive in our culture. This is an account of a confrontation from an unexpected source.

Today I address more content related to the predicted end of the world mostly in regards to people who left comments suggesting God told them exactly what the end will come (spoiler alert – one person’s date has already passed!).

There has been a little buzz about some constellation alignment later this month. A few people have asked me about it, so I talk about this current event today.

Today I reminiscence on the decline of the church from the digital revolution. Listen in for the problem and some solutions.

This was recorded a while ago when I was visiting Rock Springs, WY where I used to live. I was responding to the terror attacks in Paris the morning of this recording, but used this to talk about the calling of Christianity.

This is not a usual Daily Walk. On this walk I discuss my own time and place during the tragic and significant time of 9/11.

This walk was inspired by a recent sermon I heard focusing on missions. A lot of people misunderstand what missions are, and even worse we focus more on our own pleasures more than God. On this daily walk I discuss the problem with pursuing the American Dream rather than figuring out how to better serve Christ.

On this walk I discuss the fallacy that when we come to Christ, everything will go well for us on earth. That is not the case, and Jesus even reminds us in John 15:20 that we will be persecuted. We are commanded to pick up our cross and follow Him in Matthew 16:24. This does not mean our life will be terrible if we come to know Jesus, but that we will have everlasting Joy, especially in eternity.

On this walk I discuss what Jesus says about worry. The NASB Bible calls this section of scripture The Cure for Anxiety. Our culture tries to make us anxious. They want us anxious to sell us things to make us feel better. They make us anxious to stay fixed to the news for ratings, but Jesus tells us the cure:

Jesus Cure for Anxiety: Matthew 6:25-34

Follow along and stop worrying!

On this Daily Walk I have a look at a topic I have seen appear in a few movies and television shows: Angels and redemption. Biblically, angels do not have a means of redemption, but why does that matter in the scope of a story line? I will discuss the ramifications of this trend on this walk.

On this Daily Walk I discuss progressive thought and how our western culture is radically moving along without Christian thought and input. Listen in on the scientific breakthrough that lead me to this talk.

Here is the article I read about DNA data storage:

During this daily walk I discuss the Parable of the Laborers and talk about our modern day application.

The parable is found in Matthew 20:1-16

During this walk, I will discuss the importance of considering our influences in life. Since our heart is frequently a reflection of our life, we should be careful about what we allow in our head through our consumption of media, but we should also not be limiting ourselves to merely Christianized forms of entertainment.

Today’s Daily Walk takes us down a path of Shallow Evangelism. The American Church is very wide, but very shallow. We are very good at getting a lot of people to pray for Jesus, but our follow-through is to be desired. We should rather focus on discipleship. I give some thoughts to discipleship at the end of this walk.

We are too focused on living in Christian bubbles and we need to pop them to let the Christians out in the world. On this Daily Walk, I talk about Lecrae, the HipHop artist and his new book, Unashamed. This split is important for us to continue on our walk in Christ.
