Many people think that the song "Born in the USA" was written to celebrate patriotism, but in fact it was showing a critical aspect to America's involvement in the War. We are often Misunderstood in life. It especially happens around the holidays and in the workplace, but what should we do when we are misunderstood. Let's talk about that on "Chewing The Frat."

#1003 "10 Year Challenge"

Facebook has a 10 year challenge where you focus on your profile picture from 2009 and then 2019. It is so funny to see how we have changed in the past 10 years. Unfortunately, we can't see how we have changed internally in the past 10 years which is a lot more important than external change. Let's talk about change here on Chewing the Frat.

It is so hard to be motivated to do what we need to do. The Bible has some ideas on how we can be motivated. This week we are going to look at motivation.

#157 "You got to get it in the right order"

Which came first, the chicken or the egg? I would say the chicken, but what comes first when we want to see change in our lives, actions or attitudes. I think we can see the answer in Genesis 32 when we look at Jacob.

#156 "Count The Cost"

The saddest site in the world is a building or project that started off with great fanfare and was fueled by passion and dreams, YET was not finished because the builder ran out of money. This is often the same situation in the lives of men. We begin something but we do not finish it because of issues and the fact that we do not measure the cost. Luke has some advice for us on that.

#155 "Access"

Over 3.4 Billion people do not have access to the internet although 5G technology is being rolled out all over the world. Why is the number so high? It is because many around the world can't afford the smartphone that gives them access to the internet. The power is there, they just don't have a way to access. Let's talk about access to God, here on Chewing the Frat.

#154 "Listening to the Wrong Voice" July 23, 2019

The game of cornhole is sweeping the nation. Whether the game started 15 years ago in Ohio or in the 14th century by Matthias Kuepermann, it has provided alot of fun and enjoyment for many people. As I was playing my first game of cornhole, I listed to the wrong voice and it cost me some valuable time and points in the game. It is the same way in our lives if we listen to the wrong voices.

#153 "A Change of Mind"

Sometimes in our lives we realize that we must make a change in our lives, however you don't realize that the change must first take place in our MIND. This really is the key for success. Join us as we talk about how we change our mind from the way the world thinks, to the way Christ asks us to think.

#152 "Being civil in a world of Incivility"

In a recent Associated Press Poll over 69% of American's polled stated that they feel that Americans are less civil and more rude than 30 years ago. We have moved from the ideas of "the customer is always right," to "the customers is right only after alot of arguing." What can we do to be more civil as men in this world. Let's talk about that here on Chewing the Frat.

#151 "Forget about a Sequel, Be Yourself"

Some of the worst movies in history were sequels of great movies. From Caddyshack 2, Staying Alive to Rocky 5, movies that tried to recreate that Hollywood magic often strayed away from what made them great. If they had stuck to the original they would have been much better. God calls us as men to be ourselves. Let's talk about that here on Chewing the Frat.

#150 The Fine Art of Getting Old

There are some things in life that get better with age. Everything from Cheese to the old favorite pair of blue jeans, but don't forget that the Bible says that We get better with age. Let's look at that today on Chewing the Frat.

#123 "The Battle for TENACITY"

We are all haunted by the things that we wanted to accomplish but we quit after a few weeks or months of the process. We started out strong but we fall along the wayside. We go away and say, "I guess I don't have what it takes to be committed." This is the greatest lie that you can believe. The Bible gives us some great ideas on how to have some Tenacity. Let's talk about that on Chewing the Frat.
