Found a lost episode on my computer and it was so good I had to upload it even though it's six months old! The fall and winter have been incredibly busy for L & P (separately, not together), but we still love our listeners! In this, episode, we began the second of two series(es?) that we hooooope to continue soon! The last episode was Emotionally Healthy Spirituality part 1, and this one is "The LIST" part one. What list? Listen to find out!
In Peter Scazzero's landmark book, "Emotionally Healthy Spirituality: It's Impossible to Be Spiritually Mature, While Remaining Emotionally Immature" we find a wonderful list of hallmarks of emotional spirituality. This episode, along with lots of fun, we discuss just a few of these characteristics. And just let me (Phil) say, Lucas totally kills in this one! Such great insight for such a young dude! Listen, like, and share!
Jesus didn't die to get us into heaven, but to get heaven into us! Join the conversation!
What happens when we abide in Christ? How are our lives different? Lucas and Phil talk about several ideas in this final conversation in our series about abiding in Christ. Join us!
Lucas and Phil talk openly about their individual experiences with Spiritual Gifts, their value and importance in the life of the believer and of the church body. Join the conversation!
What does it mean to abide in Christ? What does it mean to be a branch of the Vine? And why are pork shoulders called pork butts? Find answers to these and other burning or not-so-burning questions. Love and pancakes to all of you!
John Piper recently tweeted "Can we reassess whether Sunday coffee-sipping in the sanctuary fits? “Let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe." (Hebrews 12:28) Lucas and Phil respond from very differing viewpoints, and as always, have lots of fun along the way! Join the conversation!
You don't want to miss this episode!
Do you have cell-phone depression? Yes, that's a thing, and we talk about it in this episode, as well as Lucas' strange dad adventures and Phil's moment of curmudgeonry! This episode is anything but mid! Listen in!
Jesus took responsibility for our sins—is that how He wants us to forgive each other? Join the conversation! And the GenZ word of the week returns with a twist or two—and could it possibly be MORE FUN? You be the judge!
"Forgiveness is setting a prisoner free and realizing the prisoner was you." What do you think about this quote from Lewis B. Smedes? We have lots of fun in this episode, maybe more than usual because of all the weird things Lucas says. But mostly, we talk about forgiveness. Join the conversation!
Heard of the "growth mindset?" Well, now you have, and we discuss that, how it relates to faith, and some other serious and not-so-serious stuff. Have a listen! And share it with a friend! Please!!!
Preachers love to tell us what to do, but how many of them tell us how to do it? How are we supposed to overcome temptation and sin in this life? We've found a secret, and we bet you don't know it! Listen in!
We've been told what to do way too many times, and we're sick of it, aren't you? We think it's time someone told us how! Shout out to Major Ian Thomas, author of many books, including "The Indwelling Life of Christ," which we discuss in this episode. Thomas explains so well how to experience the reality of Christ living His life through us rather than trying to live the Christian life on our own. Join us as we dive in and process this idea and ask some of the same questions we hope you might ask!
It's our Father's Day Special! We want to send out a special shout out to all the dads out there because you don't get enough credit! If you haven't thanked your dad, do it now...or right after you listen to this episode...definitely do that first, and then call your dad...after you listen. Love and Pancakes!
Part 2 of our insightful conversation about the intersection between faith and the Enneagram with our good friend, Andrew Layden! We talk about how to be the best version of ourselves, regardless of our personality types or motivations. FYI, we don't talk about spiritual prostitution in this episode!
Hey, everyone! Lucas is a little under the weather this week, so we are replaying one of our favorite episodes today! This is part one of our conversation on uniqueness in the body of Christ with special guest, Andrew Layden. We talk about the image of God, identity in Christ, lay a foundation for our discussion of the enneagram, and have lots of fun in the process! That it is!
Well, as much as I hated talking about it and typing it into the title of the last episode, I had to do it again because the actual discussion of the "p**p knife" cultural phenomenon is in THIS EPISODE! So sorry to those of you who were frantically searching through that last one for this bizarre topic! But besides that and possibly other weirdness, in this episode Lucas and Phil discuss the importance of having hard conversations and a growth mindset in faith, life, and relationships. Definitely worth a listen!
Plenty of frivolity, heart-warming stories, and wisdom from Lucas & Phil. In this episode, we ask the question, "What are the three most helpful pieces of advice you could give to someone?" Join us, we're glad to have you!
