This episode I close out our series and have a discussion with alumni guest Pastor, Wayne Kuna. We discuss the life crippling effects of worry on our peace, and how to combat it. I also share the results of a social media “social” experiment I did recently. Not only does worry impact us physically but it also guides on how we react to certain “hot” topics. If attention is the new form of worship, what has yours today? Be encouraged...

If you need a change from all of the Coronavirus talk, then Episode 30 feat. Dave Wagner is for you! Dave is…different. Besides being very knowledgeable in many things, he also holds to a few controversial topics. I’m not saying he thinks the earth is flat, I’m just saying he believes its not a globe. Yes, there is a difference! He also is the world’s leading baseball glove repairman, loves classical music (most serial killers do),...

Happy Easter! In the last month our world has changed drastically. No work, no school, no going out (wink, wink), and no services at church! Many churches quickly went to a live on-line option and others did not. Maybe the idea of going to church or watching a service on-line is a little foreign to you, so how about an Easter message podcast? No one sees you walk in, no one is tracking you on-line, and most of all guys in suits wil...

Coronavirus, Worldwide Pandemic and shelter in place! Lately our world has gone mad and the new normal is chaos, or that is what the mainstream media wants us to believe.

So, I assembled a panel of somewhat “normal” guys to discuss how they are coping with the new normal. My buddies, Dave Catris, Rick Risden...
