I've been wrestling with this voice of the enemy in my head. It's been telling me that I am too incompetent; I don't have what it takes to handle what God has put on my plate. Many of us hear this same voice everyday. In this episode, we address the voice head on.

There are some of us that woke up this morning and skipped prayer and God time because we think we are too dirty for God. If you are one of these people, or ever have been, let's take time to remember what Jesus Christ did for us. We are going back to the basics because it is the foundation. We cannot build up without it.

This entire week is about love as we commemorate the UA's 3rd anniversary. Many of us see our suffering to indicate that God has left us and no longer loves us. However, this is not the case. Suffering is expected in the life of all human beings, and our comfort doesn't come from them being absent. It comes from our faith in God being present. #DTDOYY21

Even us Christians can confess to being discontent in life. Does this mean that God is not enough for us?
God told us, " man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the Lord doth man live." Let's break down what that means.

Today we answer a question submitted to Ask Churchboy: Hey "...How do you think us, children of God, should approach differences in opinion within our own church? Different generations have different lenses when it comes to how proactive we should be within our community battles and political conversations, especially when comes to about speaking on racial and gender injustice. Should we speak up or brush it under the rug?"

Caring too much about what people think is an underrated issue. In fact, I think this issue is one of the most relevant for our generation. Fact of the matter is: this issue has the power to keep people from living out their lives as an offering to God. In this episode I'll explain how.

PULL OUT THAT BIBLE. Tbh I didn't expect for this one to be this heavy but whatever. There's been too much confusion in our generation, so I believe its time to slow it down and cover one of the fundamental doctrines of our faith: The Divinity of Jesus. I pray this message ultimately encourages you see the importance of studying the Word, asking questions (to the right people), and taking your walk in Christ more seriously than you are right now. Love yaw, let's get into it!

Should I trust God for a miracle or should I make things happen on my own? Do we work hard because we don't trust God? Are we mediocre because we expect God to give us a miracle? Hope episode gives some clarity.

Many young Christians of our generation are so scared to be problematic. We're scared to be cancelled and we are scared to be seen as a bad person. Our addiction to praise has finally exposed itself, as we are so much more concerned with being an amazing person in the eyes of the world than we are serving and representing Christ. Today I'll unpack all this and I hope that you DON'T feel attacked but enlightened.
