Everyone experiences transitions in life. Some we choose while others are forced on us. Some are larger than others, but every transition creates distractions that can derail us. That’s why we must be intentional on key rhythms in our life, that keep us moving in the right direction. And that’s what…

In Episode 023, we talk about the third and final part of our conversation called “Marriage on Mission.” Without an agreed upon mission to pursue, and values that define your marriage, it’s very easy for both spouses to pursue their own unspoken mission and values, which will create more conflict th…
In this episode, we get very real and raw as we keep talking about sex with some tips to thriving sexually in marriage. Before listening to this episode, if you haven’t yet, you may want to go back and listen to Episode’s 018 – 021. In those episodes, we talk about “Marriage on Mission” and then div…
In this episode, we start to tackle the subject we’ve been teasing about since we started the podcast…sexual intimacy. We’ve titled this episode, “Let’s talk about sex, baby!” If you know the song, you know! Sex is awesome! It is a good gift from God. But like every good gift, our enemy the devil wa…
In this episode, we pick up where we left off last time talking about living our lives on mission. If your marriage is not focused on the right mission, then your mission will become only about your marriage. If you haven’t yet, make sure and listen to Episode 018 of the podcast. We start talking ab…
I am frustrated with today’s politics, so much so that I feel a bit politically homeless. I don’t fit in their camp and I don’t fit in their circle. Anyone else feel that way? “I’m a Christian who is theologically conservative & socially compassionate, too conservative for progressives & too progres…
In this episode of the Naked Weekly, I talk about how leadership is overrated. What do I mean by that? Well, it’s been said that “everything rises and falls on leadership.” While I understand the sentiment and do believe that great leadership is needed in this life, when it comes to the Church an…
In this episode, we tackle the practice of creating, maintaining, and pursuing a bucket list (life goals, dreams list, etc.) “You don’t have to retire to live your dreams!” A bucket list is simply a list of places you want to go, things you want to do, or something you want to accomplish, and they d…

In this episode, Jeff and Sabrina continue their series on “not going back to normal” by finishing out their conversation concerning our spiritual health. We intended to have this be a part of the conversation with mental health in Episode 004 but the Lord took us another direction and the result wa…
Truth = I’m worth it! So many times in life I start to believe the lie that “I’m not worth it.” I’m not worth the blessing I receive. I’m not worth the position I have. I’m not worth my wife, my kids, my job, whatever it is. The biggest one is that I’m not worth being saved. Do you ever struggle wit…
What is wisdom? I propose that wisdom is not what we think it is. So often, especially in our faith, we view wisdom as this thing that helps us make the right decisions. That’s partially true. God can and does give us the wisdom to make very difficult decisions in life. James 1:5 says “If you need w…
Labor Day. Most of us view it as the “three day weekend for no reason,” right? Or the last “holiday” of the summer before everyone gets back into the groove of school and business. Most kids know they are out of school and many businesses get an extra day off, but do you know where it came from? Lab…
Truth: I’m standing in the name of God! I added a new Declaration of Truth to my list based on last week’s sermon at @elementchurch.life. Any time I can teach or inspire these declarations of truth in a sermon I always try to do it. Truth statements have become one of the key spiritual disciplines w…

Be holy because you’re made holy! Leviticus 20:7 Keep all my decrees by putting them into practice, for I am the Lord who makes you holy. Notice, we aren’t made holy by what we do. However, because we’ve been made holy there are certain things we should do. There’s a fine line there, right? It’s so…
I am who God says I am! That one Truth has been revolutionary in my life. We often allow ourselves to be defined by what we believe about ourselves, what other people say or have said about us, or the lies our enemy (satan) whispers to us. That’s such a dangerous place to be, but it is also such an…
Are you seeking success, or are you seeking God? This is a question we must all ask ourselves, and its an important question. As a Christian, I don’t believe there is anything wrong with being successful. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with desiring to be successful. God doesn’t want us to des…
Living in the light is a choice we have to make, not an advantage to our faith. I sometimes think in our faith; we can become complacent, thinking that just because we believe in Jesus, it will be easy to walk in the light. But walking in the light doesn’t just happen; it’s a choice. 1 John 1:7 says…
Here is a declaration of Truth I say over my life. Truth statements have become one of the key spiritual disciplines which help me replace the lies of the enemy with the Truth of God’s Word. Every one of my declarations is rooted in Scripture: Psalm 73:28 (CSB) But as for me, God’s presence is my go…
Every obstacle in life is an opportunity. What if we viewed life that way? Now, I’ll admit. I have a long way to go in being really good at this. But I do believe that every obstacle in life is an opportunity. The first opportunity we have is an opportunity to grow. In fact, there is no growth witho…
Here is a declaration of Truth I say over my life. Truth statements have become one of the key spiritual disciplines which help me replace the lies of the enemy with the Truth of God’s Word. Every one of my declarations is rooted in Scripture: Proverbs 29:25 Fearing people is a dangerous trap, but t…
