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.

On today's Valentine's Day edition of the Churchboy Confessions podcast, we talk about romantic relationships. What is marriage about anyways and why is it a big deal? Is it just about being happy and fulfilled or is there more to it?

As Christians, should our aim be to save the world? Should we wake up every morning with the goal of making a utopian society our reality? Many of us want to save the world, but did God ever ask us to? Today, I'll discuss the reality of the future our world awaits and the role that I believe believers are meant to play.

Two days after the Poetry Jam...there's still a lot I want to process. And int the meantime, I thought it was only right to revive this archived episode from Feb. 1st, 2021 that related to a message I spoke on, on Saturday. The message is titled "Let the Storm Finish". I pray that what you get our of this episode is a new outlook on how you should respond to the trials in your life.
P.S. - Thank you so much for everyone who came out and tuned in to TUPJ4. Thank you for being apart of this.

Right now, your life sucks. Does this mean that God hates you? Why can't you just live a life where everything is a blessing and never causes you stress? Today I want to speak to anyone who has ever had these thoughts running through their heads. Why does God allow hardship, and why does His discipline seem so hatred?

Birthdays used to be a time of genuine happiness and celebration. Unfortunately for me and a lot of us, it has turned into a time where we stress about not being as far along in life as we want to be. Today, I want to talk about this, and how many of our desires in life emerge from our own sinfulness. It is when we put God first, we are able to curb this depression and walk in the path He's called us to.

A lot of us are strong and courageous enough to step up to the plate and fight it out. But how many of us are strong and courageous enough to get back up after getting knocked on our butts. There is one thing that we must grasp in order to be empowered enough to get back up after a failure...and that one thing is God's grace. Let's talk about it.

It's 2022. This year, we are focusing on following God to where He has called us. The road may not be easy, but I believe that if you have faith, you will be able to withstand and conquer any trial. I want this year to be a faith-filled year. No longer will our days be filled with doubt and self-pity. In 2022, we will keep our eyes on the Helper.

What you are is not something that you earn. It is simply what you are. In this episode I just wanted to run some thoughts about identity with you. And ultimately, I hope that as you look to strategize your approach to 2022, this episode stands as a point of influence in that process.
Best,Emmanuel Iheke

Rather than seeing our weaknesses as a platform for God's glory to stand on, we turn to being insecure individuals on a quest to be self-reliant. It is this misconception of our weaknesses that lead many of us into a life of sin. Let's expand on this...
