Being a Control Freak is Stressful

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.   Thank you for watching the episode!

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.       Thank you for watching the episode!

"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?   Thank you for watching the episode! Let's connect!!

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.   Read: Ephesians 4:11–15 (NKJV)   Resources for Reading the Bible https://www.gotquestions.org/ - Great for Bible questions https://www.blueletterbible.org/ - Get original Hebrew & Greek definitions to words used in english translations. https://www.bibleref.com/ - Get explanations on tough Bible verses https://courses.dts.edu/ - Free Bible courses from my seminary school    

Most conversations surrounding the gospel talk about the physical pain, suffering and death that Christ experienced on our behalf. Today I want to talk about something else Jesus endured for our sakes, and that's humiliation. Some people think God is egotistical, but when we really take time to consider what it meant for the Creator to humble Himself and suffer at the hands of His own creation, the "egotistical" label simply doesn't stick. Let's unpack.   Read: Philippians 2:1–8; Hebrews 12:1–3; 2 Peter 3:9   Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to UN-ASSOCIATED at https://www.un-associated.com/donate/   Sign up for UN-ASSOCIATED's virtual, Bible Studies every first Monday of each month! https://forms.gle/ra53byPArBpmYn6L8

The conversation around our individual purposes can be an exciting one or anxious one depending on who you ask. I've noticed a large amount of anxiety our generation has when it comes to this. We are in a point in our lives where we want to know our purpose, but it seems like God doesn't want to give us a clear answer to what that is. How do we continue to navigate our day-to-day, uneventful, unfulfilling lives until He answers us?   Read: 1 Samuel 16–17; Matthew 6:33–34; Psalm 118:24   Girl Chat: Panel & Discussion Sign up!: https://forms.gle/ADUfbgyyZWH3xuxt8   Give me your feedback: https://forms.gle/B7oRX192g9b9achD7   Consider making a tax-deductible donation to UA!: https://www.un-associated.com/donate/    

What are the 7 ways you can know you're depending on the Lord? Here are 4–7. (4) you work with and trust others in a team rather than trying to do everything yourself (5) You can take a day off working (6) You rely on God when you're tank is empty (7) You chase God instead of worldly things.   Give me your feedback: https://forms.gle/B7oRX192g9b9achD7  

Dependency on the Lord is an essential part of our relationship with Him. Despite this, many of us are still hell-bent on doing everything ourselves. We typically refer to this act as "trusting in the flesh". God is not a fan of this. In fact, He's cursed the Israelites for doing this in Jeremiah 17. Not only is trusting in the flesh offensive to God, it can also lead to a life of anxiety, stress, fatigue and rocky relationships. In this episode, we do some self evaluation in order to gauge where we can improve in our dependency.   Read: Jeremiah 17:5–8; Matthew 10:26–31; Proverbs 3:5–6; Philippians 4:6–7   Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to UN-ASSOCIATED at https://www.un-associated.com/donate/ Sign up for UN-ASSOCIATED's virtual, Bible Studies every first Monday of each month! https://forms.gle/ra53byPArBpmYn6L8
