97: Henry & Alex Seeley

Henry & Alex lead The Belonging, a church in Nashville that started with 7 people meeting in the basement of their house. Two years later, they are fast approaching a congregation of 2,000 people. We sat down with them and asked about their journey which looked more like despondency and desert than dreams or destiny. Be encouraged as they share their story about what it's like to sell everything you have, move across the world following God while everyone else thinks you've taken a misstep.

96: Dreaming with God

Poor AJ is sick, but she managed to croak her way through this episode with tremendous results. Find out where we're going in June, how much weight we've lost in the last 40 days and more importantly seven helpful things to put into place while dreaming with God.

95: Relationships

Alyn discovers he's a freak as AJ breaks that news to him gently, we test drive a Tesla and nothing is working in our recording studio. This week we talk relationships, friendships, verbal processing, how to steward favor in relationships, things that break connection and discover tea. While there are crackles, there's also laughs.

94: Listeners' Questions

This week's episode reflects the change of pace we've had at this week. So instead of a topic, there's several as we answer our listeners' questions. Topics range from depression to spiritual discernment and from dreams to soaking music. Plus we ask you a question! It was a fun episode to record.

93: Life Hacks

Goodness gracious me. We spend some time talking about the things we've put in place to reduce friction (and thus stress) in our lives. From automatic light switches to floor cleaning robots - we cover it all. Plus, Alyn reverts back to his Scottish accent, AJ gets a new grill and we answer questions about experiencing the presence of God and why Bethel Church isn't a cult. Join us for this packed to the gills episode.

92: Happy Future

You and I have a glorious future, yet too often we can't see it because we're focussing on the wrong things. This week we get distracted by a new game, get revelation from our kids and talk exciting date nights. But most of all, we talk about the nature of God, His eternal optimism and our happy future.

Feb 29, 201627 min

91: Hungry

What a glorious week! We catch up on some Gary & Sarah stories after their radical time with us, talk about lunch boxes for grown ups and share our latest restaurant find. The main topic however is hunger for God; why it's good, why it's God and how it gets satisfied.

Feb 22, 201631 min

90: Gary & Sarah Morgan

In preparation for this week's episode we suggest you watch this youtube clip first. Gary & Sarah have been friends of ours for 10 years. They are wonderful parents, incredible leaders and tremendous fun. We designed our podcast with the goal of getting to interview them and now, some ninety episode later, we've done it. If you want to hear straight from a prophet about how he hears from God, this is the episode for you.

89: Perseverance

There's no fast track to greatness. Everyone who is someone has endured something. This week we look at the topic of perseverance and share four things to help you stay strong when things are going rough. That and how we started our day with a "fight".

Feb 08, 201633 min

88: Wonderful Women

A great week with sad moments. We said goodbye to our friend Justin, Alyn taught at The Belonging on women in ministry and we ate great pizza and great meat. In this week's episode we talk about the women who had major impact on our lives. Also, School of Supernatural Life ministry applications are now open.

Feb 01, 201636 min

87: The Thin Line

We'll be honest, this was a hard week with a very rough ending. Pneumonia, winter storms and the death of a friend. As a result this isn't your normal podcast. We say hi for sure, but you'll forgive us for not sharing, instead you get to listen a message Alyn preached called The Thin Line. Or, you could just listen to last week's episode which was astonishing. We'll be back next week with regular programming.

Jan 25, 201657 min

86: David Wagner

This is more than an hour of solid gold Holy Spirit goodness. On this episode we ask David to share the story of how God transformed him from a suicidal alcoholic schizophrenic into the cuddly loving mercy prophet we have today. If you're not encouraged after listening to this episode, have a bag of skittles and try listening again.

Jan 18, 20161 hr 11 min

85: Sowing & Reaping

This one's a winner. You've got AJ's whistling nostril, AJ's story of how she started smoking and some talk about the most disbelieved verse in the Bible. Also, stories of how you can kick start blessing in your life and we answer a listener question about soaking.

Jan 11, 201627 min

84: Do it

The difference between people who do and people who don't, is that people that do, do. And the people that don't, don't. In this episode, Alyn talks about his realization that most of what he thought was wisdom has been fear and the dramatic effects that has on following God. Also, AJ is now Lady of Catan.

Jan 04, 201624 min

83: A Few of our Favorite Things

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens, bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens, brown paper packages tied up with strings, none of these are our favorite things. But if you listen to this episode you'll find out a few of our favorite things from 2015. Also, we see Star Wars (but talk spoiler free) and have a brush with a tornado.

Dec 28, 201534 min

82: Rest

In response to a listener's question we talk about the steps to resting in life. Plus fake Christmas, real Christmas, leprechauns and AJ gets a bike. Also, we float the question, "if you could listen to the live recording of the show, would you want to?"

Dec 21, 201533 min

81: Hard Work

To quote Stephen King: "What separates the talented individual from the successful one is a lot of hard work." This week we look at the wisdom in working hard right now for your future you (despite right now not looking anything like what you want to be doing in the future). Also, Alyn gets a bicycle and AJ's ready for Star Wars.

Dec 14, 201522 min

80: Questions & Answers

We answer listeners' questions about sexiness, once saved always saved, alone time and hearing God's voice. Plus Alyn's thinking about getting a bike and wants a pastry named after himself. All in all, a pretty normal week.

Dec 07, 201544 min

79: Thankful

And we're back! Thanksgiving is over but not forgotten. This week we think through the three things we are most thankful for. AJ gives a quick review of the iPad Pro, Pencil and Smart Keyboard and Alyn prays for an impartation of the kindness of God.

78: Happy Thanksgiving

We're taking a rest this week and enjoying some downtime with family for thanksgiving. While we're away from the normal schedule, we have some very special guests to talk to you about the wonders of Thanksgiving. We'll see you next week!

77: Life Languages Part 2

Our friend and certified Life Language Trainer stopped by Jones HQ to record with us and share more insights on Life Languages. Learn more about each of the Life Languages and listen to an expert share not only from her training, but also from her life. Also AJ's birthday celebrations, the new iPad Pro and power tools.

Nov 16, 201558 min

76: Life Languages Part 1

This week we talk about the best communication profile we've come across and the traits of the life languages we are most fluent in. That made no sense? Don't worry, we explain it this episode. Listen to save money off your own life language profile. We've marked this one explicit because we talk about sex for, like, 2 minutes, but we didn't want you to get a shock if you were at work (or your kids were around).

Nov 09, 201537 min

75: Awe

If we told you that this episode featured someone who speaks 17 languages (15 of which were given to him supernaturally by God) and is familiar with a life of miracles would you believe us? What about someone who has seen eight people raised from the dead? What about - and stay with us here - someone who was murdered and then came back to life by the power of Jesus? For our 75th episode, we've gone all out and got some of the most crazy miraculous stories you're likely to hear today. Featuring P...

74: Future Proofed Marriage

Recorded a few hours after performing a wedding, we talk about how to future proof marriages and the key ingredients in staying married. Alyn has a father-daughter Nintendo moment, AJ finds a restaurant she doesn't like and we talk sex (don't get too excited).

Oct 26, 201525 min

73: Healing

It's crazy, we've done over seventy episodes and never talked about healing. This week we remember the turning point in our lives for seeing healing happen as a normal by product of being in relationship with Jesus.

Oct 19, 201534 min

72: Language of Heaven

God is always speaking; the trouble is, we're not always perceiving. Learning the language of Heaven is imperative if we're going to learn to hear His voice. This week, we talk about our experiences of growing (and failing!) to understand what God is saying. Also, new restaurant reviews and fantastic fish tacos.

Oct 12, 201527 min

71: UGBs

What you think about determines the outcome of nearly every decision you make. Ungodly beliefs (or UGBs) are nasty little suckers that sound true, but are actually false and are designed to steal life from you. This week we announce a jingle winner, talk through UGBs and answer listener questions.

Oct 05, 201534 min

70: Forgiveness

We can't actually believe we haven't talked about this before as forgiveness is key to the healing we've experienced in our lives. This week we talk about misconceptions about forgiveness, the importance of forgiveness and the power of forgiveness. Also, answers to listeners' questions about relationships and people who call themselves prophets.

Sep 28, 201530 min

69: Connection

Relationships are built on connection. When we allow our connection to degrade, our relationships suffer. This week we talk about the three most important life skills you need for establishing and maintaining healthy relationships. AJ gives a shoulder update, Alyn has a new Mario game and AJ (still) wants a jingle.

Sep 21, 201527 min

68: Times & Seasons

Life has a funny way of moving in and out of seasons. Sometimes those seasons are fantastic and other times they require huge amounts of patience. God is good in every season and this week we talk about how to live in different seasons and transition through them. Also, jingle competition!
