90. What Keeps People from Hearing God?
Friday Mar 29, 2024
Friday Mar 29, 2024
We've all wondered why we can't hear God's voice when we think we need it most. Why is that? Is it simply God's way? Or is it something in us? Dale and Jonalyn share their boys’ thoughts and then their own. You’ll hear several examples of what hearing from God should and should not look like. You don't want to miss Dale's metaphor of the raining cannon balls.

89. God and the Godfather
Friday Mar 22, 2024
Friday Mar 22, 2024
Many Christians believe in a polluted version of God as the godfather, looking for favors. Or so insisting that God isn't looking for favors, they demean others into shame. The emphasis always being on unworthiness and not on God's fastastic view of us and invitation for us. Learn about the most damaging abuse of scripture today called "Worm Theology" and how to befriend God without this pollution.

Friday Feb 16, 2024
Friday Feb 16, 2024
This question comes up often when people get to know us, especially since we are committed to Jesus.
The writer of Hebrews says, "Do not forsake assembling together." What does this verse in Hebrews 10 really mean? Dale shares four types of church attendees and Jonalyn explains why the first church actually shows up at Mt. Sinai.
Technical Glitch Warning: Around minute 42 we begin to have microphone difficulties. And they snow up again toward the end of the episode. But we thought this episode was too good not to share, so here it is!
