Research proves that getting way outside of your comfort zone with friends can reorient your perceptions about life and change your core belief systems, so Jeremy had an idea... What if we found the cheapest possible plane tickets to a foreign country and spend 24 hours there trying to live fully alive to the experiences and people God brings our way? This week on our summer bonus episode we spend 24 hours in a very unique country. Join us as we discover what living fully present in unfamiliar territory can do to our brains, our friendships, and our daily lives.

Connecting with people who are different than us can be awkward. A few weeks ago on the show Mia challenged us to get lunch with someone who is super different than us. Mia joins us on the show again as we talk about what happened when we stepped out of our comfort zone to engage people who believe, act, and see the world differently than us. It was an interesting experiment for sure and it taught us more about how to enter the world of others the way Jesus did.

11 - Off To Memphis To Honor MLK

Do you have a spidey-sense that flairs up anytime someone tells you that they have heard directly from God? Many people struggle with understanding how to hear from God. Does God really speak to us today? And if so, how can you tell the difference between if it is just your own thoughts or if God is really speaking to you? Explore the resources and means for getting clarity about when God is speaking to you and how He does it.

10 - God Is That You?

How does God use us to speak blessings into the lives of other people? Learn how to hear God's voice on behalf of other people as we join Chad on campus at UCF. We draw on Chad's experience of being intentional in conversations to learn how we can bless the people around us during the day. What are the right things to say? What questions should I ask to show that God cares for people? If Evangelism is bringing good news to people and God wants us to use us to speak His message, then let's learn together how to share specific blessings into the lives of others.This can be summed up like this: God wants us to learn how to listen to Him, allow Him to connect with us, and then to help us. Listen Connect, and Help

09 - Hearing Gods Voice pt 2

If you’ve ever struggled to hear from God, or if you aren’t sure that God really talks with us, we created this discussion with you in mind. A lot of times Christians can go through seasons where we don’t really know how to differentiate from God’s voice and the other voices around us. Was that God’s voice I just heard, or was it just my imagination?Jesus says, “My sheep know my voice.” and this means that we have it on good authority that God is actually communicating with us in a way that we can hear Him. This is good news!In this episode, we learn more about how the Holy Spirit is the One who to help us hear from God. This is the first of a two part series with our friend Chad Johnson, who shares with us from a robust experience of daily interaction with the Holy Spirit. We learn about how God is a communicating God, and that He is communicating with us.Chad Johnson was the A&R man for Tooth and Nail and discovered many popular bands such as Underoath, Copeland, and Anberlin, and Chad is the founder of Come&Live! In this Episode, Chad shares how to actually hear the voice of God in our everyday lives. We discuss a lot of our experiences together.Come&Live! is an organization that provokes and inspires artists to proclaim the revolutionary message of Jesus.Chad Johnson’s new book: One Thousand Riskshttps://www.amazon.com/One-Thousand-R...Listen to the Music: “Too Soon // Too Late” by Native Culture nativeculturefl.com

08 - Lost Art of Hearing Gods Voice

The idea of Listen, Connect, and Help is a powerful plan for making meaningful connections with people so that they can experience God's love through us.Mr. Rogers was a man who really understood the power of Love, and he helped people experience the kind of Love that God has for each of us.Christians have been confused over the years about evangelism, with popular sayings like "come out and be ye separate" and in turn thinking that we shouldn't associate with sinners. But Paul makes it clear in 1 Corinthians 5 that any separation we should do from people is NOT from everyday people in the world, (These are the very people we should RUN towards and love with everything we've got.) but rather we should separate ourselves from church-going people who claim to be Christians who are also intentionally immoral when they are confronted and do not begin to take on more of the Jesus kind of life.Have you ever made this clear distinction and let it inform your approach to people who do not yet know Jesus?

07 - Evangelism With Mr Rogers

In the gap between how we feel and what is true, we have a choice. Will we choose to live out of the truth God provides us, or will we settle for living based on our feelings? On this episode we answer some calls, get real about some circumstance in our life, and Jeremy rips off his mic leads us on an adventure out of the studio.

06 - And The Pigs Went Off The Cliff

The question we wrestle with today defines our lives whether we spend adequate time processing it or not. Join us as we seek to turn the responses from church-goers young and old into a clear picture of hope.We mention a video of a scene from The Bible Series about the Pharisee and the Tax collector, and here is the link. https://youtu.be/39fHwaR2P40

05 - An Outrageous Question

Do you remember the first time you saw a magic trick that you could not explain? Like how it made you feel that anything was possible? But then at some point your realized that it wasn't real. And you didn't know what to believe anymore. Now imagine that happening to a whole city. This is a story of Lost Magic, where the revival ends and faith disappears.
