"Lost (Week 1)" • Written & Illustrated: Part Four
2w ago00:38:36Tap to summarizeWe often think we have to get our lives together before we can come back to God. Change first. Clean ourselves up. Become someone better.But Jesus tells a different story.No matter how far you've wandered, your Father isn't waiting with crossed arms—He's waiting with open arms. He isn't asking you to fix yourself before you come home. He simply wants you.Because His grace is greater than your past, and His love never runs out.

3w ago00:30:42Tap to summarizeWe're all building something with the way we live.Jesus invites us to live with eternity in mind—to use our time, gifts, resources, influence, and the way we treat others to bring a glimpse of God's kingdom into the world around us.The choices we make today may seem ordinary, but they have the potential to leave an eternal impact.
Transcribe →"Strong Feelings" • Written & Illustrated: Part Two
4w ago00:32:42Tap to summarizeIt's easy to focus on what someone has done to us. But Jesus reminds us that on the other side of the hurt is a person deeply loved by God—someone with a story, struggles, and a need for grace, just like us.Forgiveness isn't just for their sake—it's for ours too. When we choose empathy over resentment, we make room for healing, freedom, and relationships that reflect the heart of Jesus.

Jul 1200:31:00Tap to summarizeWe tend to overlook the small things. The small decisions, brief conversations, simple acts of kindness, or moments that seem insignificant at the time.But Jesus often pointed to ordinary things to reveal extraordinary truths. A mustard seed may seem small, but it carries the potential for far more than anyone would expect.Sometimes the things that feel insignificant today become the very things God uses in a significant way tomorrow. Because when God is involved, small beginnings can lead to something much greater than we can see.

"Sold" • Skipped: Track 05
Jun 2800:42:06Tap to summarizeRelationships in this life often feel transactional. We bring something to the table, prove our worth, and earn our place.But Jesus paints a very different picture. One that isn't built on what you can do for Him, what you've accomplished, or what you have to offer. The invitation of Jesus is surprisingly simple: come as you are. Not with a perfect track record or an impressive résumé, but with your whole self. Because what He wants most isn't what you bring—it's you.
Transcribe →"Dissed" • Skipped: Track 04
Jun 2100:36:22Tap to summarizeSome passages make us pause. They seem confusing, uncomfortable, or hard to reconcile with the God we know. Sometimes what first appears harsh or confusing reveals something deeper when we stay with it long enough. And maybe that's true of some seasons in life, too.Maybe you're waiting for an answer, a breakthrough, or a prayer that feels unanswered. While things don't always unfold the way we hope, we're reminded that God is still good, we can trust Him, and one day all things will be made right.Until then, there can be purpose in the waiting.
Transcribe →"Uprooted" • Skipped: Track 03
Jun 1400:33:54Tap to summarizeFaith can feel intimidating when we think it requires certainty, confidence, or having it all figured out.But Jesus points to something much smaller—a mustard seed. A reminder that faith isn't about how much we have, but where we place it.Sometimes we struggle to believe that change is possible, that God can work in our circumstances, or that He can do something meaningful in us. Yet Jesus sees more in us than we often see in ourselves. He specializes in taking small beginnings and doing what seems impossible.Because sometimes all it takes is a mustard seed of faith to trust that God is still at work.
Transcribe →"Denied" • Skipped: Track 02
Jun 700:37:59Tap to summarizeFollowing Jesus often sounds inspiring—until we come across a teaching that feels costly.If God is truly good, if He is for us, and if He can be trusted, then His invitations aren't leading us away from life—they're leading us into it. Sometimes the hardest teachings of Jesus begin to make more sense when we view them through the lens of God's character rather than our fears.Because trusting God means believing that what He asks of us is ultimately for our good, even when we don't fully understand it.
Transcribe →"Hated" • Skipped: Track 01
May 3100:39:06Tap to summarizeYou know those passages we highlight, memorize, and come back to again and again. And then there are the ones we skip. The verses that confuse us, make us uncomfortable, or seem impossible to reconcile with the God we know.When we come across a verse that doesn't seem to fit, it's important to remember what we already know to be true about God: He is good. Sometimes understanding a difficult passage begins not with having all the answers, but with holding firmly to that truth as we continue asking questions and seeking understanding.

"Complaining" • Word Problems: Part 7
May 2400:37:09Tap to summarizeIt’s easy to focus on what’s frustrating, disappointing, or not going the way we hoped. Complaining can become so normal that we don’t even notice how much it shapes our perspective.But Jesus invites us to hold firmly to the good—to live with gratitude, grace, and an awareness of what we’ve already been given.Because what we continually focus on doesn’t just shape our attitude… it shapes the way we experience life and the people around us.
