The Jacob's Ladder Podcast

Join us in our 5th installment of the "Who is God?" series. What are the gifts of The Holy Spirit? They sound like superpowers — but what do they actually do? Are they rare, reserved for a few, or available to any believer? Is someone lucky to receive just one, or does the Lord use multiple gifts through one believer? Why does God partner with us for healing, prophecy, discernment, and faith? If you’ve ever wrestled with ...

In this conversation, we reflect on what it means to lose Charlie Kirk. Because his life was committed to both faith and politics how should we handle the tension and blurred lines between both? Was Charlie a Christian martyr? What does revival look like in a moment like this? Why do some mourn, and others celebrate? What about loved ones in heaven—can the saints see us? Do they witness our remaining lives? If you're wrestling ...

Join us in our 4th installment of the "Who is God?" series. What exactly is the gift of tongues? Is the day of Pentecost a spectacle of the Holy Spirits power? Or a sacred reversal when He descends and undoes Babel’s confusion by declaring the Gospel for all to understand? Are tongues only for public use?

Why does He feel distant to some and unmistakably near to oth...

This is the 2nd installment of our "Who is God?" series. We will dive headfirst into the mystery of the Trinity — not just as a doctrine, but as a lived tension between faith and reason. What does it mean to say that God is one being in three persons? We wrestle with modalism, toy with the idea of a duality between Father and Son and ultimately confront the undeniable presence of the Holy Spirit in scripture. This episode...

What does it mean to say that God is truly good and infinitely powerful? In this 1st installment of our "Who is God?" series, we dive into the essential characteristics that define the nature of God — His immutable attributes that He does not share with humanity, and His mutable qualities that He graciously shares with us. Along the way, we introduce the foundational concept of the Trinity: one God in three persons. This ...

God's revelation didn’t end when the biblical canon closed. In this episode of our God Revealed series, we explore how God continues to reveal Himself today—not just in scripture, but in the stirrings of our spirit, in the still small voice, and even in the moments when He seems hidden. What can we learn about God's nature through all this? How can we learn to listen and grow closer to Him? If you have ever wondered about t...

God’s revelation didn’t stop with the Old Testament—it reached its fullest expression in Jesus Christ. But even in the New Testament, He reveals Himself in different ways: through Christ’s teachings and miracles, through direct encounters like Paul’s dramatic conversion, and through the varied experiences of the disciples. Why does God choose such diverse methods of revelation? What can we learn from these encounters? If you ever w...

Is being a Christian just about going to church and following rules, or is it about something deeper? From the very beginning, humanity was created for a close relationship with God—a relationship that Adam and Eve walked away from. But through Jesus, that broken connection is restored. In this episode, we explore what it truly means to follow Christ, not just in belief but in a transformed life—one marked by grace, repentance, and...

I open with a question that’s been heavy on my heart: How do I have a personal relationship with God? I’m doing my best to follow His commands and live in a way that honors Him—but lately, He feels distant.

All I want is to feel close to God, but I’m having a hard ...
