The 2 Greatest

Are there any reminders of death around you?  Is that a good thing or a bad thing?  This episode talks about the positive benefits of being reminded of our own mortality.  

You might be surprised to learn that God is very happy!  He is joyous!  His name is Jesus.  There are ways you can increase YOUR joy by intentionally taking joy seriously.

Is there a way to never diminish the reality of pain in our lives and at the same time embrace joy?  I think there is. 

Mr. T said it, but scripture said it first.  What is a "fool" and how should you respond to that person's foolishness?  Well, scripture says...that depends!

Information has never been more available and more confusing.  Who do you trust to tell you the truth?  Whose voice are you listening to?  

Do you like to be "in the know?"  I do!  Sometimes it's being curious, but sometimes it's out of fear.  I think, I better know so I can prepare for the worst or try to change it before it happens.  But God seems to give us information only on a "need to know" policy!

When you hear the word "religion" what comes to mind?  Is it a positive or negative word and why?  What if I told you religion can be "pure" and scripture already tells us what that looks like?  It might not be what you think!

There is something powerful about music that moves our soul.  Music is fixed to our memories.  Music is transformational.  What have been the great songs in your faith journey?

There are countless books, articles, blogs and more being written everyday.  Most aren't worth reading.  Some are good.  Others are great.  But a FEW stick around and change the world!

You just call out my name and you know wherever I am, I'll come running to see you again.  Remember the words to that song.  They stick because we ALL need and want strong friends like that!
