A life unleashed is a life where you are released in your pursuit of purpose. It means you've grabbed hold of God AND released what was holding you back. It is a life of boldness, adventure, and greatness and it is who God made us to be. Unfortunately, the default we often find ourselves in is frustrated, fearful, stuck, and lacking purpose. In this episode we look at what it means to be unleashed, how to become unleashed, and also what are the most common "leashes" we tie to ourselves. We look ...

The world needs great men. Men were made by God to pursue, protect, and provide but it is unfortunately uncommon to meet a man who understands his role and fulfills it. Why is that? God's design for the world was family. Kids are meant to learn their identity, values, and responsibilities from their parents. A father's job is to tell his kids who they are and show them what it means to bear their last name. Kids are designed to learn by watching. America leads the world in fatherless homes. If b...

We all know that we reap what we sow, but how often do you think about the nature of what you sow. The nature of what you sow will determine the motivation and fulfillment of what you reap. So often we sow our time, effort, and talents towards things that we think will fulfill us only to come up empty. That's because we are sowing towards cravings from our soul rather than the only eternal part of us which is our spirit. The spirit craves purpose and divine connection. In fact, purpose is the ca...

We've all been deceived at some point in our lives. For some of us, it was something small and for others, it was a deep betrayal. The truth is that many of us are still being deceived even now and we just don't know it. The deception process starts with desire, then it encounters deception/negativity and becomes twisted desire. From there the twisted desire incubates and eventually gives birth to terrible decisions and sin. It is literally how people end up doing things that destroy their own l...

Christianity is often what we associate with Jesus, but Jesus spent all His time teaching about the Kingdom. If you spend time reading the parables about the Kingdom, it can be confusing.
