Churchboy Confessions
Hosted by Emmanuel Iheke Jr, “Churchboy Confessions” engages young adults with a series of monologues and conversations communicating God’s Word with the utmost vulnerability. For many, the churchboy/churchgirl archetype represents someone who has it all together. But the reality is that we’ve all sinned and fallen short, and we don’t get better by avoiding conviction and hard conversations. Instead, we have to have them. Join Emmanuel and the UN-ASSOCIATED family to discuss the real struggles and challenges that accompany the faith walk and how Jesus is the answer to them all. New episodes on Mondays.

#askchurchboy: I have doubts on my salvation...how do I know if I am truly saved?
Today I answer what it means, and looks like to truly be saved. As elementary as this topic may be for some, it is the most important message that I could ever preach on - as being sure of salvation is the most important thing in all of our lives!
I honestly don't preach about this enough. But the key takeaway from this message is that we are saved by faith in Jesus Christ. He has paid the price, washing away our sins, and when we surrender our lives to Him and make Him our Lord, we secure salvation and go through a real transformation. I wish this experience on every human, I pray that as you listen to this message the Holy Spirit convicts you to be sure of your salvation. This episode will either make some feel more comfort or make some feel more discomfort - either way, GOOD. Love you all, enjoy!

Just because God has called you to something doesn't mean you won't face opposition. In fact, 9/10 you should expect opposition, as satan works hard everyday to get you to doubt God by sending you messages and circumstances that contrast everything God has told you. In these times it's important for us to stick to God's word, know who we are, hold the line.

My fear of failure was actually a fear of embarrassment. Have you ever been embarrassed even though no one else was in the room? What does the Bible say about embarrassment and how we can carry on past it? We need to know this because - let me tell you - that embarrassment makes me want to quit sometimes.

When God places us on a seat at the table, we can expect there to be people (or even our own thoughts) that try to convince us we don't belong there. However, when God places us on a seat, we need to hold onto that seat until He - and only Him - tells us to get up. That's that.

It's not every time a storm comes that our main prayer point should be for God to deliver us out of the mayhem. Sometimes the storm needs to run its course. Times like these are when we need to know what it means to endure.

At first, the idea of turning 23 only left me with panic and fear of the future. So many of us are currently in positions we never saw ourselves being in? What do we do with all of these built-up emotions and uncertainty for the future?
(I think this is an episode that could really change a life.)

Social media. A world of endless content - a wonderful platform to share the gospel. However, in the same way it has become a tool of the enemy to spread false doctrine and feed our addiction to attention. It's time to go a bit deeper and call out the dangers of these apps, and figure out what we each can do better as individuals.

One thing 2020 showed us all is that this world is truly unpredictable. After what was such a hard year for many of us, should we even try to expect big things or anything good to happen this year? If you're having trouble deciding on whether to be optimistic or skeptical about this new year, please listen.
