32 True Self vs False Self, Which One is Living Louder? with Brett Vaden

32 True Self vs False Self, Which One is Living Louder? with Brett Vaden

Today I have a conversation with Brett Vaden, an author and associate pastor at The Journey West County. We explore what it means to have a true self and a false self and why it’s important. Who am I? How do I define myself? Why is it easier to be a pharisee than we think? What is the difference between being loved even though I am broken vs being loved for my brokenness?

Today’s episode we cover John 14:6-14 and discuss the high view of humanity that God has, his immeasurable kindness in that He wants to lift us up and make us more like him, how Jesus is the way, truth, and the life, and how that fact is still valuable 2000 years later!

29 Why the Law is Freedom John 13:31 - 14:5

29 Why the Law is Freedom John 13:31 - 14:5

It's easy to see God's law as frustrating or limiting. It can be easy to see God as a cranky control freak instead of understanding the underneath human flourishing of many laws. Some laws we may not see the flourishing aspect, this side of heaven. We also dive into the incredible practical forgiveness that God calls us to - although it can be very offensive to our sinful nature.

28 Washing the Feet of Your Enemies - Yikes! John 13:18-30

28 Washing the Feet of Your Enemies - Yikes! John 13:18-30

#97 on Bible Podcasts on Feedspot.com: https://blog.feedspot.com/bible_podcasts/ Man, Christ is challenging. We want to hate our enemies - which sounds great, right? This is the contrast between the kingdom of heaven and sin. Our sin feels justified in hating our enemies but this is not the way of God. This is so challenging, convicting and yet to know Christ means we must ask the Holy Spirit to transform us. We are missing out on the glory and goodness of Christ if we don't understand these upside-down mysteries.

18 The Tale of Two Diciples (John 12:1-19)

18 The Tale of Two Diciples (John 12:1-19)

We see a contrast between two disciples Mary and Judas and how their relationship with Jesus leads to drastically different values. We then see the Triumphal entry of Jesus, also known as our Palm Sunday celebration. This leads to an excellent and unexpected discussion on Poverty, Betrayal, Politics, and Jesus Changing my Racist Heart - which would have been a subtitle but it's too long.
