The Bible records many accounts of angels interacting with people in both the old and new testaments - so where are they now? On this week’s episode we talk about what angels do, how they help us and share some of our stories of our interactions with the angelic over the years. Plus we answer a listener’s question about mental health and christian culture. Good times!
With the news of the outpouring at Asbury hitting main stream and social media and with pockets of revival breaking out across the globe, it seems everyone has an opinion on what is and isn’t revival. On this episode we offer six things we’ve learned from being in situations where the Holy Spirit breaks out to help you navigate through the noise of opinion and seek the Lord with clarity. Plus Alyn has an artificial intelligence crisis and we answer a listener’s question about why sometimes things aren’t as easy as we’d like them to be when we pray for breakthrough.
Anxiety sucks. But it’s such a part of life that Jesus instructed his followers on ways to deal with it. On this episode we talk about anxiety from a spiritual, emotional and neurobiological perspective and then offer six different approaches to dealing with it.
Stephen James is the founder and executive director of Sage Hill Counseling and the creator and CEO of The Leadership Lab. But he’s also a generous man, a brilliant thinker, someone who tells the truth and is fiercely curious - even when those things may get him into trouble. Which means he’s a perfect guest for our show. This week we unpack things like hope and grief, stress, addiction, trauma and the human experience of feeling stuck.
Our dear friend and SOSL Pastor, Shannon McLaird joins us this week to share her testimony of escaping her childhood trauma when she met Jesus and healthy community. This episode is marked explicit because of the subject matter of sexual abuse and we've marked certain chapters of the episode with warnings if this topic may cause secondary trauma. Shanon's story ends well and will be a huge encouragement for everyone, no matter your background.
We used to despise our limitations. Limitations were for losers, after all we can do all things through Christ! But we've since learned to love our limitations as they point to areas where we need self care. In this week's episode we discuss five things to help you love your limitations and answer a listener's question about tithing as a business owner.
Inner healing is just a fancy name for the work the Holy Spirit does to conform us into the likeness of Christ and yet in some parts of the church it’s greatly misunderstood. This week we share five things we didn’t know as we stepped into more and more understanding. That and a Christmas miracle(?) is afoot in the Jones household.
We’ve been on a journey toward the transformation of the inner man. Having started with a paradigm of inner healing and deliverance the last few years we’ve explored therapy individually and in groups. Here’s five things we didn’t know about therapy that we do now!
To some, boundaries are nothing more than the tool of entitled jerks. To others they are a gateway to relational health and fruitfulness.

Dr. Chip Dodd is a feelings expert. He literally wrote the book on it. For the past 10 episodes we've explored what he wrote in his breakthrough book, "The Voice of the Heart". This week we were thrilled to sit down and ask him your questions on feelings. Join us on this wonderful, meandering conversation with a brilliant man with a beautiful soul!
So we've talked about all 8 feelings. Now what? Well that's precisely what this episode is all about.
And we're back to talk about gladness - the feeling everyone wants to feel! However, there's some fine print to feeling glad which is why so few people truly do! Tune in to find out why.
Out of all of the 8 feelings, this one is the most straightforward to talk about, probably because it's the one that we're so familiar with given the human condition. So here it is: guilt.
Out of all the feelings, this was the one that had the most impact on our understanding of ourselves. On this week’s episode we unpack why shame is actually a blessing (something that would previously been an anathema to our thinking), leads to a glorious gift and has two fairly horrible impairments. As a bonus: we breakdown an argument we had last week and show how shame played a role in it.
Fear is not as scary as we've been led to believe. This week we talk about the gifts and impairments (plural!) found in fear. Also we discover wrestling!
This week has given us plenty to be angry about and on this episode Alyn gets to demonstrate what anger looks like, AJ tells you what the gift is and we get to explore all sorts of misunderstandings regarding what is - and isn't - anger.
This week we talk about sadness. Not sadness as a concept, but our own sadness and what we’ve done with it in the past and how that’s worked out for us. We also talk about reconciling sadness with the goodness of God. Recorded after a week of deep sadness, we love how this turned out. Let us know what you think!
This week we’ve had proper sleep so we’re on our A-game. Sort of. We talk all about the feeling of loneliness which is the feeling that as humans we try to avoid the most. We talk about the gift that’s found in the feeling of lonely and most importantly update you on the celebrity world of Animal Crossing.
