What if the real reason we don’t have revival… isn’t God—but us?In this convicting episode of the Eyes on Jesus Podcast, Tim and Drew confront the uncomfortable truth many believers avoid: we say we want revival, but we resist the surrender it requires. Drawing from the bold teachings of Charles Finney and real-life ministry experience, this conversation exposes how passivity, fear, and hidden sin quietly block the move of God in our lives. From the tension between God’s sovereignty and our responsibility to the danger of “waiting on God” as an excuse for disobedience, this episode will challenge how you think about revival.You’ll also hear a powerful breakdown of why revival starts personally—not corporately—and why small acts of obedience matter more than hype moments. If you’ve ever felt stuck spiritually, struggled to follow through on what God is asking, or wondered why revival feels out of reach, this episode will hit deep. The truth is simple but piercing: you don’t need more information—you need activation. Revival isn’t coming to your church until it starts in you.Check out our merch store! https://eyesonjesuspodcast-shop.fourthwall.com/Get all our links in one easy place! https://linktr.ee/eyesonjesuspodcastGet the Eyes on Jesus 90 Day Discernment Devotionalhttps://a.co/d/3v8963sJoin our Group on Facebook- Eyes on Jesus podcast community https://www.facebook.com/groups/eyesonjesuspodcastEmail feedback, questions or show topic ideas to eyesonjesuspodcast@outlook.comFor more information on Drew Barker: Follow Drew on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/pastordrewbarkerDrew's church's website https://yes.online/For more information on Tim Ferrara: Get all his links in one place- to his social media, all 3 of his books, and more at https://linktr.ee/discerning_dad

What if your spiritual life is struggling… not because you don’t love God—but because you lack discipline?In this episode of the Eyes on Jesus Podcast, Drew and Tim get brutally honest about something most Christians avoid: spiritual and physical discipline. From gym habits to prayer habits, they unpack how consistency—not motivation—is what actually transforms your life. If you’ve ever made excuses, struggled with routine, or felt stuck spiritually, this conversation will hit close to home. As they say, “there’s a thin line between excuse and disobedience.”This episode challenges the way we think about fitness, faith, and everyday habits. Are we treating our bodies like temples—or ignoring them? Are we feeding our spirit—or just scrolling and consuming? From practical routines like prayer rhythms and Scripture habits to deeper conviction about what we watch, listen to, and prioritize, this is a wake-up call for believers who want more than surface-level Christianity. If you’re ready to stop drifting and start growing—this one is for you.Originally aired April 26, 2023Check out our merch store! https://eyesonjesuspodcast-shop.fourthwall.com/Get all our links in one easy place! https://linktr.ee/eyesonjesuspodcastGet the Eyes on Jesus 90 Day Discernment Devotionalhttps://a.co/d/3v8963sJoin our Group on Facebook- Eyes on Jesus podcast community https://www.facebook.com/groups/eyesonjesuspodcastEmail feedback, questions or show topic ideas to eyesonjesuspodcast@outlook.comFor more information on Drew Barker: Follow Drew on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/pastordrewbarkerDrew's church's website https://yes.online/For more information on Tim Ferrara: Get all his links in one place- to his social media, all 3 of his books, and more at https://linktr.ee/discerning_dad

What if the biggest thing holding you back spiritually… isn’t sin—but religion? In this eye-opening episode of the Eyes on Jesus Podcast, Drew and Tim expose the subtle but dangerous spirit of religion—a mindset that keeps believers busy doing for God while missing intimacy with Him. From striving instead of abiding to choosing comfort over obedience, this conversation confronts the patterns that leave Christians feeling dry, critical, and disconnected—even while they’re active in church. If you’ve ever felt stuck in your faith or frustrated with church culture, this episode will hit deep.Drawing from real ministry experiences and biblical truth, this episode challenges you to examine your heart: Are you pursuing Jesus—or just maintaining a religious routine? Why do churches divide over preferences? How does comparison rob your joy? And how can you break free into a Spirit-led, alive relationship with God? This isn’t about attacking the church—it’s about calling it back to life. If you want revival in your heart, your family, and your church… this is where it starts.Check out our merch store! https://eyesonjesuspodcast-shop.fourthwall.com/Get all our links in one easy place! https://linktr.ee/eyesonjesuspodcastGet the Eyes on Jesus 90 Day Discernment Devotionalhttps://a.co/d/3v8963sJoin our Group on Facebook- Eyes on Jesus podcast community https://www.facebook.com/groups/eyesonjesuspodcastEmail feedback, questions or show topic ideas to eyesonjesuspodcast@outlook.comFor more information on Drew Barker: Follow Drew on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/pastordrewbarkerDrew's church's website https://yes.online/For more information on Tim Ferrara: Get all his links in one place- to his social media, all 3 of his books, and more at https://linktr.ee/discerning_dad
