S6 E34 - Always Listening

2026-10-3113:16

Send us Fan Mail Our phones are always listening. I made a joke about buying a hat that says "Chill" on it so I can just point at it to make my children chill out when they get crazy. Later that night, my phone showed me an advertisement I had never seen for a hat just like that. The Lord is also always listening. To those who love him and walk in integrity, that is a comforting fact. But for those who walk in darkness, that is a terrifying thought. What kinds of things are we saying o...

S6 E33 - Simple, Not Easy

2026-10-2415:29

Send us Fan Mail I went back for another PT session, and we added many more movements to strengthen my core. They were very simple in nature, but very hard to actually do. What does God require of us in this life? We tend to overcomplicate everything. It's simple, actually, but that does not mean that it is easy. Our call to do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with our God is hard - but worth it. #SetYourMindAbovePodcast

S6 E32 - A King of Spades or a King of Spades?

2026-10-1116:12

Send us Fan Mail I was playing cards with my parents, and my dad had the option to pick a card up off the discard pile or draw another card.

The small moment reminded me of a difficult concept many struggle with: understanding the relationship between God's sovreingty and our free will. Both exist in perfect harm...

S6 E31 - The Church Needs Physical Therapy

2026-10-0312:01

Send us Fan Mail I started physical therapy this week for SI dysfunction in my pelvis & low back. The therapist stated he doesn't want me to rely on him. It's his job to equip me, and to equip me to learn how to correct it as well as strengthen the surrounding muscles. This is exactly what we are called to do as the church. Leadership is to equip the saints, not only to correct that which is out of place in our lives, but to strengthen one another so as not to fall away. #Set...

S6 E30 - Coffee With My Dad

2026-09-1912:20

Send us Fan Mail This morning came with a special surprise: an impromptu coffee date with my dad. We have not sat down together just the two of us over a cup of coffee in a long time. We talked about a little bit of everything, but especially spiritual things, and finished with prayer. The most important spiritual moments and instruction in our lives don't just come in a formal setting of worship, they happen in the most ordinary of places - like sitting down over coffee. It's how God ...
