Bible study reflection solo or with friends is an inspirational segment for Johnathan as a result of getting together for bible study with friends Erik and Jennifer and still having more to say. Thus far, the segment is about unpacking different passages of scripture read in bible study and feeling the need to explore it even more deeply. This week however it was a scripture in Bible study that had me thinking deeply. It actually was two conversations I had with friends that inspired me to wanna have this conversation. This week I also provided extended stories on how the Lord blessed in hopes to inspire you to pay close attention to the details of your life and how the Lord shows up. You will be surprised how often we overlook God's appearance daily. Tune in and hope the conversation today is a blessing to all those who press play. If so, tell a friend thank you.
"The Truth Of The Matter Is"  Podcast is all about providing an honest, contextual, historize, political,  psychological, and philosophical view of the Bible through the use of Hermeneutics, while sharing some personal experiences from Brothers Johnathan, Daniel, and on occasion our special guest. In faith we believe our listener's will leave with an open perspective, desiring  biblical truth, and practically applying God's WORD to everyday life. Today I brought on Carrie E. Pierce who has been writing professionally for over twenty years. She understands that in this day and time period, there's a real need for wholesome, quality literature that should be enjoyed by parents and grandparents and should be safe enough to read out aloud. Carrie began prayerfully crafting quality stories from the heart that contain important life lessons; written in a style that doesn't talk 'down' to children. stories always contain age-appropriate themes - free of agendas and teach wholesome, important life lessons. Having experienced heartbreak and tragedy firsthand and seeing many of her dreams come true, Carrie speaks with a rich insight into the human heart and an honest voice holding nothing back. Tune in to learn about her testimony and what she is doing for the kingdom of God.
The day after Resurrection day Johnathan begins by acknowledging that everyone will not acknowledge Resurrection day because everyone does not believe that Jesus has risen. They don't believe that Jesus lived, so  they prefer Easter. The truth of the matter is as believers we need to keep in mind that everyone is entitled to believe what they want our jobs as believers should be to honor their choice of belief. As we continue with the Gospel of Matthew series Johnathan  discusses Matthew 9:35-38 and reviews the text and notices how Jesus has done some interesting things that many people today have embraced and have modernized and taken it to a different  level today. Tune and hear those similarities in approach today and how it was stolen from the past. Take a close look at marketing and how it hasn't changed much. Take a look at  propaganda, teaching and selfishness has plagued people's ability to grow and be the best versions of themselves. See why telling the truth is what will save people and why nothing else will.
This week Johnathan made a conscious decision to take a deep dive into the Word of God from a  Philosophical approach in the Gospel of Matthew specifically chapter 9 verses 32-34. The intent was to dig deep from a biblical and Philosophical perspective. What made him decide to do this is because he felt the need to speak on this portion of scripture. Without question he had questions and thoughts and figured why not  explore some things and see what the Word of God had to say about things such as: biblical historical events, miracles, and prophecy and why was Jesus rejected when it came to him helping others as evidence of God sending Him. He found himself being kind of mind blown with what he discovered while confirming some things he knew. See if you agree or disagree after taking a listen. The goal of course is to explore the Word of God honestly and with the intent to learn and strengthen your faith in Jesus Christ. The more you learn about your savior the more equipped you will be to discuss Him with believers and unbelievers.

Today I brought on YouTuber Sam Fryer who has his own channel called "The garden tube. [https://www.youtube.com/@gardengarden]" Here's: (Part1) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_x_UevK6dI] and (Part2) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_Hhkd0sjhE]of his testimony. I brought Sam on as part of our special guest segment because I wanted to discuss several things with him relating to his journey of coming to Christ and topics concerning (the body meaning his church) as a whole. I also wanted to highlight what he has been doing for the kingdom through his YouTube page. I believe we had a fruitful discussion and hope it will be a blessing to you as much as it was to me.
Continually with the Gospel of Matthew series we come to a point in scripture where Jesus is meant by two blind men seeking to speak with him. Their desire was to see, hoping that Jesus would show compassion towards them  they cried out aloud for mercy. Jesus eventually heals them but asks a very critical question: "Do you believe I am able to do this" ? And with that question I wanted to explore the difference between belief and faith. I wanted to read scriptures and identify where God wants us to exercise faith and belief. Tune in and determine if you agree with my suggestion. The passage I read comes out of Matthew 9:27-31 ESV and AMP.
Bible study reflection solo or with friends is an inspirational segment for Johnathan as a result of getting together for bible study with friends Erik and Jennifer and still having more to say. Thus far, the segment is about unpacking different passages of scripture read in bible study and feeling the need to explore it even more deeply. This week on the segment Johnathan takes the time to introduce something he applies when reading scripture. That is the idea of letting Scripture interpret itself. Rather being philosophical he allows the Word to speak for itself and defend itself. Tune in to see an example of that and decide if you agree with the method. The passage is Psalms 86:5.
This week on the podcast I have on Branch Isole a friend. He's an Author, poet and storyteller. An author of twenty-two books Some of the topics that he writes about are: choice and consequence, accepting or avoiding personal responsibility, and the power of truth. Branch teaches corporate sales, and marketing, because he is actually a founder and partner of five small businesses .Branch graduated from Texas State University. He also did some post graduate work at the University of Houston, and holds an Oxford M.A. Theology degree from Trinity Bible College. Since we often talk a lot off the air I thought it would be a great benefit to have him on to share the things he is doing for the kingdom of God. tune in to learn some things you can apply to your everyday life and maybe you might want to purchase his books.
As believers the goal everyday should be to find ways to read, listen and praise God. Joshua 1:8 says, "Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful." Scripture being our example I challenged two of my friends to read one chapter a day in The Word of God and choose three verses that stood out to them and share it. It would be this initiative that God would be more involved in our day. Through this opportunity in faith to spend more time with God I revisited the Gospel of Luke and noticed some things I didn't see when I first read it. Reading Luke and Matthew side by side I saw some differences and received some revelation. Tune in as this episode was not what I intended to post at all. This episode is raw and fresh with only about an hour of preparing. With the raspy-ness of my voice and the unpredictability of this message. I believe God had a say in why this was posted today.
There comes a time when you read the scriptures that you are going to have more questions than answers. Does that mean you should be concerned? No. Here's why: what makes the Word of God interesting and such a mystery is that it will leave you with the opportunity to search for those answers. It will give you the opportunity to get on your knees and ask God for his to reveal things to you. Matthews 7:7 NLT says, Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you." So if you don't receive an answer at first, give it time. This episode was inspired by my story of Matthew 9 as we continue in the gospel of Matthew series. After taking a look at verses 18-26 I came out having more questions than answers. My hope in sharing this is to fill the curiosity of those who read and have questions about the text as well. It's perfectly normal to come across that and it's ok.
When it comes to the practice and tradition of fasting I think we all can agree that it's one of those actions that require intent. In episode 112 we did an episode on fasting where we thought it was important to point out that when you engage with such a practice the intent should be to receive rather than receive. Today we take a look at Matthew 9:14-17 in the ESV and unpack a response that Jesus gave to the disciples of John. Do you agree with the analysis ? Well the choice will be left up to you to consider. As always we are just making suggestions to consider and encouraging you to engage with the scriptures genuinely.
After my recovery I decided to revisit what occurred during this 4 day period where I felt emotional and physically drained due to getting sick. I wanted to understand what was the take away from such an experience and I received that response through my reflection time. I also took the time to examine positives and negatives as it pertains to those who are dealing with healthy challenges. What keeps a person who isn't well joyful in Christ Jesus?  This Bible study reflection is an episode that I am most proud of because it allowed me to look at the world much more deeply and honestly it brought me back to square one as I do my best not to take things for granted or as a given. I also believe we should  celebrate those who honor God in spite of their circumstances and remain faithful and content. Tune in to find out if you agree. There's nothing wrong with being reminded, encouraged or corrected on things you might have overlooked. Reply Forward Add reaction
The truth of the matter is podcast is all about providing an honest, contextual, historicized, Philosophical and Psychological view of the Bible through the use of Hermeneutics, while sharing some personal experiences from myself, Daniel and on occasion our special guest. This week we have two guests. Paul Granger who has a podcast called: where did you see God? [https://podcasts.apple.com/za/podcast/where-did-you-see-god/id1438136557] And Terrance Mcullen who has a podcast called: what's the value? [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/whats-the-value/id1562010603]Both of these gentlemen are good friends of mind and thought it would be an honor to have both of them in to discuss the purpose of New Year's resolutions, the importance of friendships, the definition of wisdom, the definition of love, how we could measure change and the meaning and purpose of suffering. I hope that this episode is a blessing to whoever decided to press play.
* Johnathan provides you three ways the Lord has blessed him. He hopes that this will inspire people to reflect and see how good God has been and how often he shows up in the details. Continuing with the Gospel of Matthew series Johnathan unpacks Matthew 9:9-13. Out of that passage feeling inspired and wanting to dig deep he comes up with a very interesting question: Can a saved person be associated or acquainted with an unsaved person? The truth of the matter is podcasts  believes this to be a fair question to ask and therefore  explores the response of yes and no on today's podcast episode. Providing biblical and philosophical responses. After tuning in determine which side of the argument you believe in but honestly you can't go wrong with either response we believe. See if you agree.
A week after revealing the theme of the year Johnathan opens up the podcast by giving a personal testimony of how he has been active in applying the theme. Continuing with the Gospel of Matthew series he also takes a divide into Matthew 9:1-8 tune in to hear some of his thoughts. You might be surprised at what he discovers along with an interesting process of things that could be beneficial to you. Remember reading the Word of God should be a practice and just because you read a passage once doesn't mean you have received all that it has to offer. This is a marathon not a sprint.
Happy New Year from The Truth Of The Matter Is podcast. For the last two years we have provided  themes for the upcoming year rather than  New Year's resolutions.

Johnathan will provide how God has been a blessing  to him. He will also  share several testimonials as support to why the theme should be considered and applied as we all go into the New Year.
Normally as the holidays draw near, podcast and TV shows with series tend to provide mixed versions of The best shows, re-runs with the goal in mind ito give the host, co-host, actors and actress a break, with an early vacation. However as a Uber Eats driver I know the desperate need for content. Just give me Something on the move that I can listen to that isn't music therefore I made sure to produce an episode for all those who are traveling and want to continue with the scheduled program. Who would like to have something to stimulate their minds. Those who don't want a break from listening to their favorite podcast. Today I reflect on Psalms 68:19-20 and Connect it with the relevance of the Christmas holiday. I begin with a question: Why did the son of man appear? I hope this is a great reminder for people of faith and  a blessing to you who decide to press play. Merry Christmas from The Truth Of The Matter is podcast family. Be well!

Tune to learn why it's constantly rejected. What are the bases for having peace of mind ? Well It starts with having an understanding of what you believe.
