Churchboy Confessions with Emmanuel Iheke

Why You Can't Afford to Be Silent About Jesus in 2025

From MAGA culture to church scandals, the reputation of the Church is in the gutter and the image of Christianity in America is in crisis. Instead of making disciples, it seems the American Church has made more apostates than ever.
In this episode, I talk about what it really means to represent Christ well in a time when faith is often confused with politics, hate, and hypocrisy. Instead of staying silent, Believers who see the issue have a responsibility to show the world who Jesus really is—through our love, our compassion, and how we treat others.
This is a call to action to every believer. Be louder than them!

Why You Can’t Stay Consistent with God—and How to Fix It

Are you tired of falling off in your relationship with God? You start strong, but then you slip up, and the shame hits hard. You know you should be spending time with God, but guilt makes you feel unworthy to even try. If that’s you, this episode is for you.
In today’s episode, Emmanuel breaks down why staying consistent with God is so difficult—and how it relates to our sinful nature and the shame we carry. More importantly, he shares how to break the cycle of inconsistency by shifting your mindset: Intimacy > Routine.
You’ll learn:
Why shame is one of the biggest threats to your spiritual growth
How to stop expecting perfection and start pursuing God more honestly
Practical tips for reconnecting with God and making Him a real part of your everyday life
Consistency with God doesn’t start with trying harder—it starts with needing Him more. Let’s talk about it.

Discerning Between Godly Ambition and Selfish Ambition

Being a Christian can be challenging when personal ambitions conflict with serving God. Sometimes our ambition aligns with God's will, promoting true spiritual growth, while other times it leads us astray. Let's explore how to discern between godly ambition and selfish ambition.

When Will God Reward Your Faithfulness?

Have you ever been frustrated with God for not giving you what you feel like you deserve? You've been good all week, or year. You've been serving faithfully and enduring hardship, but your breakthrough hasn't come and your bank account is empty. In this episode I hope to encourage you in this time of waiting, and also warn you about the common deceit those who are waiting often fall into.

Is There Really a ‘Christian Choice’ in Politics? | Exposing Spiritual Manipulation

In this episode of Churchboy Confessions, I ask the hard question: What does it mean to be the 'Christian choice' in politics? No, this isn't a political podcast show. However, as Christian nationalism seems to gain momentum in America, we believers need to have a talk about the difference between alt-right, conservative nonsense and true Christianity.
Today, spiritual manipulation, political pandering, and misplaced endorsements are corrupting the Church and damaging our witness — especially among young Christians. 
If you're wrestling with how to navigate faith in a polarized political climate, this conversation will challenge you to rethink what it truly means to follow Jesus over any political agenda.

Why So Many Men Feel Worthless – Redefining Christian Masculinity

Many men today feel like they’re not enough—like their worth is tied to success, money, or how much they can provide. And when we aren't winning in one of these areas we begin to feel like we're worthless.
In this sermon, we dive into what the Bible actually says about your identity, worth, and manhood. Whether you’re feeling lost, unmotivated, or just tired of the pressure to "have it all together," this message will remind you that God called you valuable long before you were “useful.” 
While this episode is centered around men, this message if for everyone.

I got laid off.

"Man plans and God laughs." It's a popular saying to explain those moments in life when God completely shakes things up, or allows them to fall apart. In this episode of the pod, my 10-month hiatus comes to an end with a story of how I got laid off last April, my call to full-time ministry, and the journey of humility I've had to walk with God ever since. What do you do when God allows a shake up in your life? How do you respond when His call challenges your reputation in the eyes of others?

How to Be a Christian During a Solar Eclipse

Let's face it, we've all fell down the rabbit hole of an end time conspiracy at some point in our lives by now. Or maybe instead of a conspiracy, we sat through the a false teacher or prophet preaching a whole lotta of anti-biblical nonsense. Realistically, we will never be able to escape with the frenzy of conspiracies, false prophecies and heresies that drop every week on the internet. Nevertheless, it's important that we not be deceived, and the Word of God is here to guide us through all the lies and deception.
