Can You Lose Your Salvation?

Welcome back to Finding God Again — the place for those of us who grew up in church, drifted away, and are now rebuilding a real relationship with Jesus as adults. Today, Tim and Zack dive into one of the most debated, misunderstood questions in Christianity: 👉 Can you lose your salvation? This isn’t a theology class. This is a real-world conversation between two guys who’ve walked away, messed up, felt shame, came back, and learned firsthand how powerful God’s grace really is. Together, they unpack questions like: — If salvation can be lost… does that mean we earned it? — Why do believers sometimes feel shame, distance, or drift? — What’s the difference between conviction and condemnation? — Why does the closer you get to God, the more you notice your sin? — How does grace transform our desires instead of giving us a “free pass”? — What does Jesus actually mean when He says no one can snatch us from His hand? Tim and Zack share their own stories of running from God, numbing out, feeling unworthy, trying to “clean themselves up” before coming back to Him… and the moment they realized: You don’t get clean and then go to God — you go to God to get clean. You’ll hear honest talk about shame, addictions, drifting seasons, sanctification, free will, the Holy Spirit’s conviction, and why true salvation always results in a changed heart — not perfection, but direction. If you’ve ever wondered: “Did I mess up too much? Did I walk away too far? Is God done with me?” — This episode will breathe life back into your faith. Because the God who chases the one lost sheep is the same God chasing you. Lean in. You’re not beyond Him. You’re not too far gone. And if you still feel that tug in your soul… that’s proof He hasn’t let go.

Could Ed Gein Be a Christian?

This episode of Finding God Again explores the provocative question: could Ed Gein, one of the most notorious serial killers in American history, have been a Christian? Tim and Zack discuss this from a biblical perspective, emphasizing that Christianity teaches no one is beyond redemption regardless of their past sins. They highlight Romans 10:9, which states that salvation is available to anyone who confesses Jesus as Lord and believes in His resurrection. The guys explain that sin is sin in the eyes of God, whether it’s a minor wrong or a horrific crime like Ed Gein’s. They mention the biblical example of the thief on the cross who was promised paradise despite his criminal past, illustrating that no one is excluded from grace if they genuinely repent and believe.

This Makes Religious People Nervous...

No amount of prayer, quiet time, or “being good” changes how much He loves you.They talk about: • Why religion often confuses grace with performance • How to stop trying to “get right” before coming to God • Why obedience flows from love, not for love • The danger of thinking good behavior equals divine favor • What Romans 5:8 and Ephesians 2:8-9 really meanIf you’ve ever felt unworthy, ashamed, or stuck in a cycle of “doing better” to make God proud, this one’s for you. Grace isn’t something you unlock. It’s something you accept.📖 Key Verses Mentioned:Romans 5:8 — “While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”Ephesians 2:8-9 — “For by grace you have been saved through faith…”1 John 4:16 — “God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God.”🙏 Subscribe for more conversations that help you rediscover faith, purpose, and grace.👉 Comment “#FoundAgain” if you’re finding your way back too.

The Old You MUST Die to Find Your New Identity

We grew up in church, drifted, and are finding God again. Today we talk identity: why piling on responsibility (kids, houses, business) didn’t crush Tim—and what changed when Jesus actually became the center. We cover: • Pressure vs. depression and why identity matters • Tim’s 18-month 180° from ego to Christ • Marriage order: God → spouse → kids (and what happens when it’s not) • The #1 tool of the enemy in marriages: offense → bitterness • Practical first steps if Christ isn’t at the center Scriptures mentioned: 2 Corinthians 5:14–17, 1 John 4, Romans (bitterness), Ephesians 5 (marriage picture). If you’re carrying the weight alone—you don’t have to. 👇 Comment topics you want next and share with a friend who’s rebuilding faith.

Don't Worry About the "Perfect" Prayer. Just Start Praying!

In this episode, Tim and Zack get real about prayer — what it means, why it matters, and how to start again even when it feels awkward, rusty, or forced. We talk about: • The importance of prayer from the Book of Daniel • Why God wants the little things and not just the big crises • How doubt limits God’s power (James 1) • The reality that even Jesus wrestled in prayer • The danger of comfort and distraction in modern Christianity • How to rebuild a real, consistent relationship with God This conversation is for anyone who’s ever thought, “I want to pray more, but I don’t even know where to start.” 🎙️ What you’ll learn: • Why prayer is a muscle, not a moment • How temptation can be proof of progress • Why God’s “no” often protects you from something worse • Practical ways to build prayer into daily life • How to pick where to start reading your Bible again (hint: the Gospels) 🙏 Key takeaway: Prayer changes your life — not because you’re eloquent, but because you’re honest.
