Episode 89: The Four Lies Satan Told Eve: Do We Still Believe Them Today?

Episode 91: What Is the Cure for Spiritual Anxiety?

Anxiety is one of the most universal struggles of our time — and if we're honest, it doesn't always loosen its grip just because we've been born again. We try to manage it. We schedule it away. We work out, we scroll, we talk to a therapist, we set 6PM rules. And sometimes those things offer a little relief. But relief and cure are two very different things. In this episode, Kimberly and her dad John are tackling what's actually at the root of spiritual anxiety — and more importantly, what God says the cure is.  The world has plenty of tools for managing the symptom. But God went after the cause. And the cause — that gaping, restless, relentless thirst that no routine, no relationship, no therapy, and no amount of willpower can fully satisfy — is a soul that was made for relationship with God and is trying to survive without it. Romans 1 makes it clear.  But here's what keeps coming up in this conversation: the cure is not a technique. It is God. And He's already extended the invitation. The question is whether we will accept the invitation and revel in the relationship daily, not just when it suits us or we are in crisis mode.

Episode 90: The Church: A Nation Without Borders

No matter where in the world you're listening from — whether you're in New Zealand, Nigeria, France, or right here in North American — you know what it feels like to belong to a nation. You know your flag, your food, your music, your history. That sense of belonging runs deep. It's who you are at your core. But here's what the Word of God lays out so beautifully, and what just lit me up when I first heard it taught by Dr. Kenny Francis: the church is literally called a nation in Scripture. Not a metaphor. Not an analogy. A holy nation — with its own language, its own culture, its own attitudes, its own music — and a belonging that outlasts every border and every flag that's ever flown. In this episode, Dad and I dig into what that really means — from the seismic shift of Pentecost to the structure of the local church community, from First Peter to Philippians. We talk about what makes us recognizable as citizens of this spiritual nation, and why that identity has to be the deepest one we carry. This isn't just theology. This is your story — and mine.

Episode 89: The Four Lies Satan Told Eve: Do We Still Believe Them Today?

Y'all, this one is good. John and Kim examine one of the oldest con jobs in history—the four lies Satan told Eve in the Garden of Eden. And here's the kicker: He's still running the same playbook today. Not a single update. Same lies, same MO, and the same enemy trying to keep us from God’s greatest blessings. Satan didn't show up with horns and a pitchfork. He slithered in with questions about God's character, planting just enough doubt to get Eve to make a decision that plunged the entire human race into a broken world. And here is a point that is VERY illuminating: Satan has to lie. He can't tell us the truth and expect us to follow him. What he has to offer would never tempt us away from what God gives us anymore than we would EVER prefer to eat rotten fruit over fresh fruit. John and Kim lay out all four lies straight from Genesis 3, break down what God actually said, and then get real about whether we're still believing and following these same lies today—in our universities, our culture, our churches, and honestly, in our own heads. Truth Bomb: Many times we are! But the good news? We don't have to.

Episode 88: The Most Incredible Investment Opportunity in the World

What if we told you there's an investment opportunity out there with a guaranteed 10,000% return — and everybody qualifies? No loading fees, no commissions, no minimum balance required. Sounds too good to be true, right? Well, this opportunity comes straight from the mouth of Jesus himself. In this episode, Kimberly and John discuss what might be the most overlooked financial principle in the Bible: The heavenly bank account God opens for every single born-again believer. Inspired by a sermon from pastor Lon Solomon, Kimberly lays out the remarkably commercial language the Apostle Paul uses in Philippians 4:17 — words like karpos (profit), plionazomta (abounding interest), and logon (ledger account) — to show us that God's investment system is more tangible and more generous than anything Wall Street has ever dreamed up. This isn't the prosperity gospel. Not even close. This is a biblical investment principle rooted in the condition of our hearts — and the return doesn't just show up as a check in the mail. It shows up as peace, purpose, joy, wisdom, strength, answered prayers, and yes, sometimes finances too. God knows exactly what we can handle and when we can handle it. They also talk honestly about what it looks like to bury your gifts — and how that retirement lifestyle of TV, golf, and vacations with no eternal purpose leaves people feeling exactly as empty as you'd expect. Spiritual bankruptcy is terrible! Whether you're chasing toddlers or you're retired, whether you're giving out of abundance or out of poverty like the widow with her two mites — your account is open, your deposits count, no one else can make deposits in your account and… nobody can rob you bank!

Episode 87: Is God Fair?

Have you ever looked at a situation that seemed just plain unfair and found yourself questioning God? You're not alone. In this episode, Kimberly and John look at one of the most common questions people wrestle with: Is God  fair? And the answer might just flip some things you thought you knew about God—upside down. Starting with God's Word, they discuss what the Bible actually says about God's nature — that he is infinitely righteous, just, and loving — and how that matters when we're tempted to judge God by our own limited, human perspective. But here's the twist: When you really look at what Jesus has done for us, there is only ONE who hasn't been treated fairly in this whole story. Jesus paid a debt he didn't owe, for people who didn't deserve it, and then on top of that, he offers us eternal life, rewards, and the fruit of his Spirit. That's not fair to HIM— but it is lavish, extravagant grace to the entire human race. And…He loves us so much, He thought we were worth the weight of unfairness He took in order to reconcile us to Himself. Hallelujah, what a Savior!
