Do you see falling as failing? It's ok. We all have seen it that way at some point as we ride the roller coaster of the highs and lows in life. But what if falling wasn't failing? What if falling led to getting back up and winning?
We live in a culture that wants to cancel people for their failures. And while no one wants to walk through trauma, trial, and tribulation when we fall, we must get back up and finish the course God has set before us. Remove the excuse to quit and keep running!
Winning is getting back up and finishing the course God has set out for you. Are you ready to conquer failure and win? Let's do this, together.
In this episode, you will hear Candace and Bianca discuss:
What it means to thrive in life, not just survive
How running a physical race correlates to running the race of life
People in their lives that embody resilience
The importance of placing people around you that will champion you through your failures

During today's conversation on Back Porch Theology we're going to explore one of my favorite pastimes, which is gathering around a table with a group of dear friends, sharing a great meal, and talking until the cows come home or someone starts flicking the lights! All too often meals in our post-post-modern culture are harried affairs that involve more staring at phone screens than looking at and listening to each other. Or else we're gobbling fast food in the car while juggling a business call on Bluetooth. But gathering and eating and talking around the table was highly valued during the incarnate ministry of Jesus Christ. Table fellowship was the centerpiece of first century culture and community in the Ancient Near East. In his book, Tell It Slant, author and theologian, the late great Dr. Eugene Peterson, puts it like this: Jesus taught in the synagogues and preached in the temple, but settings of hospitality seemed to be Jesus' venue of choice for dealing with kingdom matters. Case in point, one of the most beloved stories in the gospels - the feeding of the five thousand - revolves around a massive fish and chips miracle; the jaw-dropping salvation of a wee little man named Zacchaeus took place when Jesus invited Himself to Zach's house for lunch; and the poignant scene where a profoundly grateful woman washed His feet with her tears, dried them with her hair, and anointed them with oil from her alabaster box took place during a dinner party. Gathering around a table is often a harbinger for healing in the four gospel accounts. If you enjoy sharing a great meal with great friends - today's episode is going to fit you like a glove. More importantly, if you ache to be welcomed to a meal with a group of folk who treat you like a friend, we pray Holy Spirit uses the next forty-five minutes or so to remind you that you always have a seat at God's table. And His invitation isn't simply to share a meal, y'all - it's to move in and find your home in His unconditional love. So please grab a cup of coffee and your Bible - unless you're picking burrs out of your naughty Goldendoodle puppy's fur, of course - and come hang out on the porch with Ally, Dr. Howard, Belle and me.

In today's episode of the Max Lucado Encouraging Word Podcast, Max shares a story about a time in college when he used a shortcut to get what he wanted. Spoiler alert: It didn't work out too well for him. Jacob used a shortcut too. He was impatient, and he manipulated his family to get his way. It didn't work out well for them either. Friend, there are no shortcuts with God. He doesn't need our help to speed up his plans. Don't take matters into your own hands. Be obedient and wait on the Lord.
Max shares more of Jacob's story and God's never-ending grace in his new book God Never Gives Up on You. Visit MaxLucado.com for more information.

During today's conversation on Back Porch Theology we're going to have an absolute - albeit perhaps convicting for the busy beavers among us - blast because we're going to be exploring the biblical imperative of play. Dr. Brian Edgar, a professor at Asbury Seminary, explains it this way: Just as in everyday life work without play makes one dull, in the Christian life service without a playful relationship with God leads to spiritual dullness. Could it be that in the theological framework of school, our Creator Redeemer places as much value on recess as He does on reading, writing and arithmetic? Is it possible that enjoying something God created so much that we burst into belly laughter could foster as much intimacy with Him as Bible study? What would it look like to truly take our faith seriously but ourselves not so much? Today's convo is riddled with giggles and doesn't contain quite as many multi-syllabic theological terms as usual, but it's a seriously important issue to consider how we can better embody the authentic joy that Jesus died to give us access to. Quite frankly, I think our lack of genuine, demonstrative joy is one of the biggest blemishes on the bride of Christ today and unfortunately is one of the reasons our witness doesn't resonate with the watching world. So please grab of cup of coffee and your Bible - unless you're dusting that super gross top side of your ceiling fans, of course - and come hang out on the porch with Ally, Dr. Howard and me.

Have you ever asked yourself, "How can I know, for sure, that I'm going to heaven when I die?" So many Christians have wrestled with this question for their entire lives, which can lead to anxiety and insecurity about their eternal destination. How can you know, for sure, that you're going to heaven when you die? Most people feel like knowing for sure they'll go to heaven has something to do with their behavior-If you are good enough; if you believe enough; go to church enough; give enough.
In this episode of 12 Truths and a Lie, Pastor JD talks about how to experience true assurance of our salvation. Listen as the truths of scripture are explained in regards to knowing for sure that we have been counted as righteous. We get Christ's perfect record credited to our account. When God looks at J.D. Greear, he sees not how many times I've prayed, how sincere I was in my faith, how pure I was... but he sees Jesus' record credited to mine.
Our prayer is that you can find peace in the fact that when God sees you, he sees the perfect life of Jesus. And so he says to you, "YOU ARE MY beloved child, in whom I am well pleased."
In the next episode, Pastor J.D. will take a deep dive into discipleship - you don't want to miss it!
Scripture references found in this episode: Romans 4:1-5; 1 John 5:13; John 14:18; Genesis 15:6; 1 Cor 13:1; John 1:16-18; John 2:20-27; 1 John 3:1; 1 John 4:15; Prov 24:11
Check out J.D.'s new book '12 Truths and a Lie'
Is your quiet time with God in the morning, at night, or some other time in your day? Whenever you spend time with Him, the point is to connect. Are you turning to Jesus? He is available to you throughout your day, whenever you need Him or want to spend time with Him.
That's the meaning of the final song on Katy's Album, "Turn To Jesus." And it was placed last on the album to serve as a reminder that no matter what your day looks like or where you find yourself, you can always turn to Jesus. Tune in as Candace asks Katy all about this song, as they begin to wrap up their conversations around her album.
Also, listen to the second half of the episode as Candace and Katy answer a listener question about encouraging your children to engage in church community.

Today is our 12th and final biblical pearl for Season 1 of our Pearls Podcast. How in the world do we finish this season? What is the biblical pearl to leave you with for now? How do we end such a rich and generous season in the Word of God together? How do we get up from the biblical table and live forward into our lives today?
I spent quite a bit of time in prayer thinking through what the 12th pearl would be. What is ONE more thing in the "better than" Story of the Bible that I would want impart to you, bless you and wash you with today?
In today's final episode, our biblical pearl is located in John 14: 1-6. These are words in red - the words of Jesus given to his disciples at the Last Supper right before crucifixion and resurrection. It's about to go down and he knows it. What will some of his final words be at this final meal before the Garden of Gethsemane, arrest, trial, crucifixion and resurrection?
Today we are going to learn about the beit av - the house of the father. THIS is some of the encouragement Jesus chose to give his disciples in this final meal and final hours. The imagery and metaphor, the deep meaning that these words would have held for Jesus and his disciples 2,000 years ago speaks a WORD to us in our own lives today. The promise that Jesus speaks of in these verses are a right now promise for you and me today.
No matter what's going on in your life, now matter how high or low, how deep into sadness, ruin and loss - we are headed to the Father's House.
As we end Season 1 of Pearls, I pray these words get worked into your soul like yeast into dough. Shalom to you and your families.
