Jimmy’s Table Podcast

I believe the world is changing. And the world I grew up in from the 1980's isn't going to be the world I die in. The global "world order" is being shaken. In today's podcast, I take a look at apocalyptic passages in the Bible, and how they challenge us to think about living our lives in a world that's changing.

In this podcast, I explore my journey through dark times, what it's like to experience joy in the midst of suffering, and ultimately, what it means to have your joy made full.

With every election season, someone famous will inevitably say, "If so and so gets elected, I'm going to move to another country." In this podcast, I explore the angst behind these sentiments, and what the longings of our hearts concerning the outcome of elections ultimately teaches us...

We live in a world that suffers from a deficit of joy. As a result, we make a lot of really bad decisions to try and fill up in what we lack. In this podcast, I look at the joy that is ultimately available for everyone....

In today's podcast, I attempt to look at both sides of the conflict in light of its greater historical context, as well as what I believe how some of the final words of Jesus Christ on the cross should shape our hearts and minds, as we try to understand this war as Christians.

According to pastor J.D. Greear, the church has become a "religious show." An irony, that many noticed, was lost on him as he preached from a giant platform with cameras and massive TV screens surrounding him. In today's podcast, I want to talk about the recent sermon clip that went viral, and what the church can learn from it...

Are aliens real? Have UFO's visited us? And what should we think of the testimony of Airforce Major David Grusch and his testimony before a house oversight committee stating that the U.S. Military has been in possession of UFO's since the 1930's? And what implications does the existence of aliens have for our faith as Christians?

Among political conservatives, "owning the libs" might be a favorite activity. But it's not exactly a Christian behavior. In this podcast, I examine the toxic "own the libs" DNA that exists among the political right, and propose a bold alternative to this mentality...
