What does following Jesus and bootcamp have to do with one another?
The parallels may shock you - or at the very least entertain you!
In this episode we dive into the weapons and strategies needed for battle and explore our FREDDOM.
Freedom in Christ
It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery. Galatians 5:1
The power of opening our homes and serving a meal is beyond what we usually consider.
That day about three thousand took him at his word, were baptized and were signed up. They committed themselves to the teaching of the apostles, the life together, the common meal, and the prayers. Acts 2:41-42
They followed a daily discipline of worship in the Temple followed by meals at home, every meal a celebration, exuberant and joyful, as the...

How do we know if it's Spiritual Warfare or a war of lies?
We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ, ~ 2 Corinthians 10:5 (ESV)
Consider the Source
Test it Against God's Word
Consider the Fruit
Often times obeying God goes against the norm, we get weird looks and are ostracized from even our closest friends.
And sometimes - we have to quit something good to make room for something that's even better.

Matthew 22:37-40
Jesus said, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your passion and prayer and intelligence.’ This is the most important, the first on any list. But there is a second to set alongside it: ‘Love others as well as you love yourself.’ These two commands are pegs; everything in God’s Law and the Prophets hangs from them.”
This is one of the most challenging actions Jesus calls us to take. It requires a lot of grace, humi...

He lifted me out of the slimy pit,
out of the mud and mire;
he set my feet on a rock
and gave me a firm place to stand.
Psalm 40:2 (MSG)

This episode proves scripture is always teaching us, never grows old or goes out of date, journals are excellent tools and the Spirit opens our eyes to new wisdom if we sit and listen.
I know! I know! We just had a podcast on this scripture a few weeks ago, but there's more. Why am I so surprised?
Mark 2:1-5 - After a few days, Jesus returned to Capernaum, and word got around that he was back home. A crowd gathered, jamming th...
Jesus has two temple clearings in the Gospels.
John 2:13-17 (earlier in His ministry) and
Mark 21:12-14 - Jesus went straight to the Temple and threw out everyone who had set up shop, buying and selling. He kicked over the tables of loan sharks and the stalls of dove merchants. He quoted this text:
My house was designated a house of prayer;
You have made it a hangout for thieves.
Now there was room for the blind and crippled...
Jonah 1:15-17 - They took Jonah and threw him overboard. Immediately the sea was quieted down. The sailors were impressed, no longer terrified by the sea, but in awe of God. They worshiped God, offered a sacrifice, and made vows. Then God assigned a huge fish to swallow Jonah. Jonah was in the fish’s belly three days and nights.
What happened to Jonah and Asa that weakened their faith? How do we respond is tough times? How do we kee...
Matthew 10:21-23 “When people realize it is the living God you are presenting and not some idol that makes them feel good, they are going to turn on you, even people in your own family. There is a great irony here: proclaiming so much love, experiencing so much hate! But don’t quit. Don’t cave in. It is all well worth it in the end. It is not success you are after in such times but survival. Be survivors! Before you’ve run out of o...
We and scripture often talk about slowing down, listening, and being still. So are there any places in scripture where it tells us to hurry up?!
*We should hurry when we are in harm's way (Genesis 19:14-15)
*We should hurry to reconcile and forgive (Matthew 5:25)
*When should hurry to obey God's commands (Psalm 119:60)
Today we are talking about navigating life's uncertainty.

Luke 5:18-20
Some men came to the house, carrying a paralyzed man on his bed pallet. They wanted to bring him in and present him to Jesus, 19 but the house was so packed with people that they couldn’t get in. So they climbed up on the roof and pulled off some roof tiles. Then they lowered the man by ropes so he came to rest right in front of Jesus.
20 In this way, their faith was visible to Jesus.
Jesus (to the man on the pallet): My ...
So, religious scholars, judgment will come on you! You’re supposed to be teachers, unlocking the door of knowledge and guiding people through it. But the fact is, you’ve never even passed through the doorway yourselves. You’ve taken the key, left the door locked tight, and stood in the way of everyone who sought entry. Luke 11:52 (The Voice)
Jesus was calling the religious scholars out for muddying the scriptures with their own inte...
