How do we fight against spiritual warfare, and why is it so important for us to practice our spiritual disciplines in this time even if we don't feel like it? If you've had to deal with intrusive thoughts trying to rule over your life, let's talk about it.

This week, I uncover episode 99, where I discussed how following God's way can sometimes look like you are missing "opportunities." Please remember, God does not miss anything, nor does He cause us to miss anything that was indeed meant for us. When living a life led by His Spirit, we never need to carry regret.

This week, I dove into the archives to recover an episode withNatalia Casiano. I invited her onto the podcast to have a very touching conversation about her struggle with homosexuality, her story of coming to know Christ, and the role that a loving "Christian community" played throughout the entire journey.

For many of us who found Christ at a young age, every now and then we might wrestle with the thought of us missing out on living a "full life" in our youth. For us, our days have consisted of service, sacrifice and responsibilities that can all be quite challenging and tiring. So...did we make the right choice to serve Christ or are we just missing out on all the "fun?"

There i was... scrolling down Tik Tok, when I stumbled upon a Tik Tok Creator that had some interesting things to say about Yahweh. She argued that God was egotistical; why else would He be forcing us to worship Him and give Him all the glory, honor and praise? I'm sure many of you might have asked this question before...so let's answer it.

There's so much art and media out there in the world...and for some reason not many of them have something positive to say about Christianity. Are people just being "creative" or is there a deeper explanation to what could be going on?

This one might be a touchy topic, but it's one that needs to be spoken on nonetheless. Many of us carry physical "flaws" that make us hate ourselves, and it's time for us to understand that our flaws do not warrant self-hatred. Let's unpack.

This might sound weird, but I don't believe in Jesus because all the evidence points to Him. Although there are archaeological findings and logical arguments that testify of Jesus, I can't say that, that's why I follow Him. If I can admit this, then what is my reason for following Him? Do I have a reason, or am I just a fool?
