What kind of agreements are you making every day—through your thoughts, actions, and even your inactions?

Could it be that the way you live is either aligning you with God’s covenant or with a counterfeit system?

What would change if you saw salvation not only as a gift but also as an invitation to steward God’s inheritance on earth?

Every day, agreements are being made—whether we realize it or not. Our choices, habits, and e...

Do you know what agreements had to be in place before Elohim spoke light, life, and the foundation of the world into existence?

Do you know the difference between an unconditional covenant and a conditional covenant?

Could understanding God’s view of time reshape how we interpret pain, waiting, and our human experience?

In this episode, we explore the profound truth that God made agreements with Himself before the world began—agree...

Why did God create the world—and what does that reveal about who you are?

What if your identity was written into Elohim’s strategic creation plan from the very beginning?

How can looking at creation through the lens of strategy and purpose change the way you live today?

In this episode, we pick up where Part 4 left off—exploring who God really is, who you really are, and why He created. Through a strategic planning lens, we’ll un...

Have you noticed recurring “systems” in your life that look like truth but keep producing fruit of oppression?

What if the gospel you inherited was more about fear, control, or tradition than the Kingdom Jesus actually preached?

As we’ve unpacked counterfeit systems in health, wealth, relationships, and religion—what shift is God inviting you into right now?

 

In this episode of The Life Budget Podcast, we pause to reflect on the j...

Have you ever heard a sermon, read a quote, or scrolled past a post that triggered fear instead of drawing you closer to God?

This episode exposes the counterfeit system of fear-based religion. I share how a social media post about “probation ending suddenly” revealed just how deeply the gospel of fear has wounded so many believers — and how Jesus’ actual teaching points us back to love, intimacy with God, and Kingdom alignment.

It’s not enough to just know what a Kingdom filter is—you have to assess if yours is aligned with God’s truth.

The fruit of your health, wealth, and relationships reveals the condition of your perspective.

Reflection is not just a pause—it’s the pathway to transformation when done through God’s Word.

In the second half of this two-part episode (and parts 7 & 8 of the Counterfeit Systems Series), we move from understanding the K...

The enemy has been running counterfeit systems since the beginning, and without a Kingdom filter, you could be drinking from them without even realizing it.

 

Not all filters are created equal—religious practices, cultural traditions, and even “good” habits can still leave your life contaminated if they’re not rooted in God’s truth and His Spirit.

 

The fruit in your life reveals your filter. If you’re seeing more anxiety, confusio...

Free will is so powerful that even a perfect being could choose imperfection.

If your life is yielding confusion, captivity, or lack—it’s a sign of misalignment, not God’s design.

God’s gifts are not delayed or rationed; they are already available—you just need to learn how to receive and sustain them.

In this episode of the Counterfeit Systems Series, we explore why origins matter—why God created us with free will, why He allowed...

Have you ever left a church, walked away from religion—or even from God—because the pain of disappointment felt unbearable?

What if the wholeness you long for isn’t about doing more to “earn God’s approval,” but about shifting your perspective of who He really is?

Could the story of Joseph teach us how to move from trauma, betrayal, and waiting… into humility, forgiveness, and trusting God’s timing?

Many believers know God through the lens of religion, but still feel like something’s missing. Success feels incomplete when our life’s purpose isn’t connected to the One who created us. And it’s not enough to know that God loves us — we need to understand the depth of why.

In this episode of The Life Budget Podcast, I share how God healed me from anxiety and showed me His love in a way that changed everything. That miracle became ...

Hey Kingdom BFF!

1. Have you unknowingly embraced a blended belief system that’s distorting God’s truth?

2. Could your loyalty to culture or tradition be limiting your ability to hear from God?

3. Is it possible that your “normal” is actually rooted in oppression?

In Part 3 of the Counterfeit Systems series, we’re shifting gears and peeling back deeper layers of deception—specifically, how syncretism quietly distorts our faith ...

Hey Kingdom BFF!

  1. Has religion become a substitute for real relationship—with God or with others?
  2. Is your willpower carrying more weight than your spiritual alignment?
  3. Are you living from the inside-out—or just trying to hold it all together on the outside?

 

In Part 2 of the Counterfeit Systems series, we’re getting honest about what religion can’t do for us. I’m sharing my personal journey of trying to do all the "right...

Hey Kingdom BFF!

What if your beliefs about God, life, and success were shaped long before you were ever conscious of them?

Could systemic oppression be influencing more than just politics and policy—but also your faith, your mindset, and even your relationships?

Are you trying to align with God’s will using tools that were never designed to bring you into true freedom?

In this powerful kickoff to our new series on Systemic Oppres...

Hey Kingdom BFF!

Do you really know who controls the systems you depend on every day — Like agriculture, medicine and even education?

What if the very charities and philanthropists you admire were helping to keep you bound?

How can believers break free from cycles designed to keep us dependent—and why does Kingdom influence matter?

 

In this episode, I’m uncovering how systemic oppression has been reinforced through education, agri...

Hey Kingdom BFF!

Did you know you hold the keys to the Kingdom? Yes — I’m talking about you!

You’ve probably heard the phrase “there’s nothing new under the sun.” Well, that applies to spiritual warfare and oppression too.

Here’s something you may not have realized: the pressure to “live like the wealthy” is actually one of the ways believers remain trapped in systemic oppression.

In this episode, I’m debunking the ideology that h...

Hey Kingdom BFF!

Have you ever felt blindsided — even bamboozled — by God?

Have you ever been in a season where it felt like everything was falling apart, like you couldn’t take one more piece of bad news?

Hey Kingdom BFF!

Do you ever wonder if your plans line up with God’s plan for you?

Have you achieved some level of success, but know deep down something’s still missing?

Is your version of wealth built on the world’s standards—or God’s? Do you know the difference between the two?

Hey Kingdom BFF!

Do you believe in God’s promises conceptually — but wonder why they haven’t fully shown up in every area of your life?

Maybe you're thriving in one area, like career or ministry, but struggling in your health, finances, or relationships — as if they can’t all flourish at the same time.

Or maybe life has just hit too hard… and you’ve started to wonder if true abundance is even possible for you.

If any of that sounds...

    Cardiac Cowboys

    The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
