Nobody Special: The Podcast

Nobody Special 015: Four Ways To Keep on Sinning

Everyone panic! There is a solar eclipse coming up.  Is it a sign of impending doom and judgment or just a reason that people use to consume alcohol midday.  Caleb and Danny talk about the struggles of temptation and sin and consider the different ways to get out of sin.  Or, we talk about how to stay in it.  

Also, Game of Thrones is very popular right now, but neither of us are watching it so instead we give our various theories on how Westeros connects with the Marvel Cinematic University.  Is Tyrion Lannister a member of the Guardians of the Galaxy?  We are not sure, we only saw half the movie.

Pariah: Persecuted For Your Faith

Pariah: Persecuted For Your Faith

Jesus Christ is an allergy to the earthly desire.  When two incompatible things compete with one another, only one can remain.  The other will be destroyed or leave.  When we put our faith in Jesus Christ, we are not immune from the same persecution he faced.  While the world makes us a Pariah for following Christ, we Yet, we can take heart and hold to the confidence rooted in our allegiance with the God who is victorious.  

Pariah: Places Your Friends Won't Take You

Pariah: Places Your Friends Wont Bring You

When two things are yoked together, they direct the path of the other one.  This only works when the two are moving in unison together.  When they are not, it is a source of conflict and tension as the two cannot go in different directions.  For the believer and the unbeliever, our flesh still craves to go the direction of sin, running counter to our new life. 

The Gospel of Luke 3:1-20

Luke 3:1-20 A Faith Worth Boldly Living

John the Baptist speaks with a strength and faith that surpasses even the strongest of the Pharisees and religious leaders of his time.  He wastes no time and directly piercing the heart with his strong rhetoric and direct preaching.  He calls the religious leaders a brood of vipers for failing to see the story of faith unfolding right before them.  As difficult as this may have been, John was able to speak with clarity and boldness as one who spoke empowered by the faith in Jesus Christ.

Where Is God

Where Is God In The Loneliness?

Sadly, everyone will experience a time of loneliness. Friendships will become strained. Family will move. For me personally, these have been the times I have sought God the hardest. When everything around me seemed to disappear, I cried out for God asking where he is.

Where Is God Through The Distractions?

There will be distractions and difficulty by a world that does not want us to see God, but we sit still, waiting on the gentle whisper of the Lord to comfort and sustain us.

Where Is God

Where Is God In The Storm?

During some time in all our lives, we will ask the question “Where is God?”  We will be seeking to hear from God yet go through the time that St John of the Cross described as “the dark night of the soul.” This can be a particularly difficult season of life for all who go…
