As musician John Mayer wisely observed, "You find your voice when you try to be like other people and fail." This podcast explores that journey toward authentic preaching—the liberating ...
Jesus and the Power of Silence
In John 8, the religious leaders brought a woman caught in adultery to Jesus. They pressed Him for an answer. He famously said, “Let the one who is without sin cast the first stone.”
And then what? Silence.
No explanation. No follow-up. Just stillness. And in that stillness, something shifted. One by one, they dropped their stones and walked away.
That moment wasn’t filler — it was the sermon.
Ever delivered a sermon that felt powerful in the moment but seemed to evaporate by Monday morning? The missing ingredient might be simpler than you think.
From my back porch, surrounded by nature and birdsong, I'm sharing a game-changing insight that transformed my own preaching: the art of ending sermons with purpose. Drawing from a personal experience where I preached what I thought was a compelling mess...

But get this!

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.
