Cast the Word

This message has been heavy on my heart recently, and I am thankful to be able to share it with you. In this episode, we discuss the importance of seeking God's face more than seeking His hands. We should aspire to know more of Him rather than only approaching God when we need something from Him. I hope you find this episode encouraging in your walk with Christ.

Fear can be such a stronghold in our lives. It can take your eyes off of God, and put them on your circumstances. Fear allows anxiety, stress, and even depression to seep in. God understands the crippling effects of fear, which is why I believe we read so much in the Bible to "fear not..." In this episode, we discuss the topic of fear, and what the Bible has to say about overcoming this issue.

In this episode, we discuss a few of the many concepts surrounding the magnitude of Jehovah God. God is so much bigger than we can truly understand, rationalize, or comprehend with our limited minds. But one thing is for sure; we serve a big and mighty God. The question is how big is God to you?

As a believer, facing spiritual battles is inevitable, but we never face them alone. We face giants every day that take shape in many different forms. The Bible instructs us how to handle these battles, and as hard as it may be from time to time, we must strive to follow the instructions outlined in the word of God. There is so much encouragement offered in the word on how to handle these battles and what we should do. Never forget that you are not alone in the midst of warfare! Listen to hear more!

We are honored to have guest Pastor Brian Seidel from Boise, Idaho join us in this episode where we discuss the importance of Revitalizing Your Christian Walk. As a believer, it is imperative for us to stay on fire for God, and to prioritize our spiritual development and growth. Now is not a time to be complacent or stagnant, so check out this episode and listen to us have this conversation with Pastor Brian Seidel from Oregon Trail Church in Boise, Idaho.

In this episode, we're diving into the story of Peter and his denial of Christ when Jesus was arrested. This story runs so much deeper than many of us might consider. The fact remains, that Jesus is still in the redemption and restoration business, and this story highlights that fact. So, if you are in need to hear that you, yes, 'Even You!' still have a purpose in the Kingdom of God, then be sure to tune in to hear more!

COVID-19 has wrecked havoc on our world, our nation, and the church. In this episode, we partner with fellow Christian podcasters, Donovan and Ashley McReynolds from BLOOM The Podcast, to discuss how COVID-19 will ultimately either positively or negatively impact church growth, attendance, and overall, the body of Christ.

In today's episode, we welcome Pastor Paul Ahnert and Pastor Eric Warren from The Fringe Church in Knoxville, Tennessee. Jesus teaches us to go and make disciples of all nations. This is The Great Commission. It is incumbent upon us, as believers, to do what we can to be Kingdom builders in our life. But how do we go about that? What can we do to be Kingdom builders in our lives? And do we have to be pastors or evangelists to be successful in this endeavor? These are some of the topics we address in today's episode. Check it out to hear more!

According to the Bible, there are rewards to them that overcome and endure through to the very end. In this episode, we discuss what it means to be an overcomer, and how we can all be overcomers according to scripture. The time has come to answer the question: Are you an overcomer or not?

Last night, 8/10/20, Cast The Word conducted our first live stream episode. We had a great time, and thank you for those who were able to join. We know many others were unable to join, and after much consideration, we decided to publish this live show as an episode for all to hear. The world today needs to see the love of Christ that dwells in your hearts. Rise up, believers, and let the light of Jesus shine through you in this dark hour! God bless.

In the last episode of our Spiritual Fitness series we are discussing the topic of flexibility. Flexibility and stretching is very important for physical fitness especially for specific workouts and sports. However, in this episode we are tackling this topic from a different perspective compared to our last four episodes, and we are addressing the question on the role of flexibility in our spiritual fitness. This is part 5, and our final episode, in our Spiritual Fitness series.

As we continue our journey discussing Spiritual Fitness, in today’s episode we will be discussing the importance of being stoic as a believer.

Check it out to hear more! This is part 4 of our Spiritual Fitness series.

As we continue focusing on our Spiritual Fitness series, this episode dives into the importance of Christ centered, Biblical, spiritual meditation. Psalm chapter 1 tells us that we should meditate in His word day and night. Meditation is necessary to maintain a strong spiritual fitness journey, and it builds upon the lat two episodes where we discussed spiritual strength and endurance. This is part 3 of our spiritual fitness series.

Endurance is necessary to continue pushing through despite the difficulties and hardships in the natural sense. The same is true spiritually. We must have a strong level of endurance to face the battles that life will inevitably throw our way. In this episode, we discuss the importance of spiritual endurance, and some tips you can apply to improve your spiritual endurance as well. This is part 2 of our spiritual fitness series.

Spiritual strength is the cornerstone in maintaining strong spiritual health, and building spiritual strength is necessary in order to achieve a healthy spiritual fitness level.

In the beginning, we read in Genesis about the creation of the heavens and the earth and how God planted man in the Garden of Eden; a perfect paradise created for man to have dominion over throughout his life. But we all know the story of Adam and Eve and the temptation from the serpent to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil - an act that God forbade, which banished them from the garden. And ever since then, man has suffered from the darkness of sin, and we have all have since been banished due to our iniquity. But it is God's desire to restore us to the Garden of Eden, and this time it will be better because we will not face temptation and sin in our future glorious home. In this episode, we discuss Eden Restored and outline what God has planned to restore us to his original master plan. As we end Part III of our Past, Present, and Future series, we are focusing on the Future in this season titled Fast Forward. In this season, we are looking forward in our walk with Christ and the spiritual realm.

The Word of God is filled with promises that are available for us both in the present and in the future. In this episode, we discuss just a few of these promises. Remain encouraged that God is not through with you yet, and no matter your past, God has a plan for your future. As we continue with Part III of our Past, Present, and Future series, we are focusing on the Future in this season titled Fast Forward. In this season, we are looking forward in our walk with Christ and the spiritual realm.

In the last episode we discussed the reality of Hell as a literal place, and in this episode we are discussing the glorious hope we have to look forward to in Heaven.There are a lot of misunderstandings about Heaven, and in this episode we hope to dispel some of these misunderstandings by sticking to what the Word of God has to say. This is part 2 of the Heaven and Hell episode. As we continue with Part III of our Past, Present, and Future series, we are focusing on the Future in this season titled Fast Forward. In this season, we are looking forward in our walk with Christ and the spiritual realm.

As we start Part III of our Past, Present, and Future series, we are focusing on the Future in this season titled Fast Forward. In this season, we are looking forward in our walk with Christ and the spiritual realm. We are starting by discussing the reality of Heaven and Hell. There is a lot of content to cover in regards to these two places, so this episode will be split into two parts. In this episode, we are focusing on the reality of Hell, and in the next episode we will focus on the glory of what is to come for believers in Heaven. This episode is a little heavier than previous episodes, but it is important to discuss all aspects of what the future holds for both believers and non-believers. I hope you find some encouragement in this episode that Hell was not meant for us, and that we do not have to go there so long as we accept Christ in our life, and live according to the Word of God.

New season starts this Wednesday. Part III of our 'Past, Present, and Future' series. In the next few episodes we will be focusing on the 'Future' in a season titled 'FAST FORWARD'. Listen here for more details.

Wisdom and faith are the two badges we should proudly wear every day of their life. As we continue focusing on the present, we can’t talk about Christian life and growth without discussing the topics of wisdom and faith. The book of Proverbs is the wisdom book and it offers so much information to us on how we should walk in wisdom in our lives today. Faith is equally as critical as it took faith for us to believe the work Jesus accomplished on the cross. I believe wisdom and faith go hand-in-hand and they are both critical tools we need to live a life of peace and prosperity. In part 3 of our PLAY/PAUSE season, we continue discussing the ‘Present’ in our ‘Past, Present, and Future’ series by discussing aspects of the Christian walk in the here and now.

In this episode, we break down the 3rd member of the Trinity and outline the major role the Holy Spirit plays in our life. The Holy Spirit is critical in our Christian walk. But we cannot receive the Holy Spirit in our lives until we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and savior. In the last episode we discussed the story of salvation, and in this episode we discuss who the Holy Spirit is and what He can do to help us in our journey through life. In part 2 of our PLAY/PAUSE season, we continue discussing the ‘Present’ in our ‘Past, Present, and Future’ series by discussing aspects of the Christian walk in the here and now.

Salvation is undoubtedly the best moment in the Christian journey. And there is no way we can obtain salvation on our own; we need the blood of Jesus for the remission of our sins. Salvation comes when we confess our sins, and believe in the accomplished work of Jesus Christ. There is no other salvation in this world except accepting Jesus as your Lord and savior. Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6). As we start Part II of our Past, Present, and Future series, we are focusing on the Present in this season titled PLAY/PAUSE. In this season, we are focusing on the important parts of the Christian walk in the here and now.

New season starts this Tuesday. Part II of our 'Past, Present, and Future' series. In the next few episodes we will be focusing on the 'Present' in a season titled 'PLAY/PAUSE'. Listen here for more details.

In this episode, we conclude Part I of the 'Past, Present, and Future' series. And there is no better person to end this season with than Moses. The life of Moses and the Exodus story has a lot of lessons for us to learn from in today's world. In this season finale of our REWIND segment, we continue discussing the ‘Past’ in our ‘Past, Present, and Future’ series by reviewing classic Bible stories, and the spiritual lessons that are available for our lives today.

Each of us have purpose in our lives. We may have went the wrong way, or made some wrong choices in our past, but there is still hope for all of us today. The story of Jonah offers a lot of hope for us, but in order to fulfill God's purpose in our life, we must obey Him and not ghost Him like Jonah initially did. Don't ghost God and end up in the belly of a fish like Jonah did! In part 3 of our REWIND season, we continue discussing the ‘Past’ in our ‘Past, Present, and Future’ series by reviewing classic Bible stories, and the spiritual lessons that are available for our lives today.

So many believers today live in a perpetual cycle of defeat. The story of Judges shows us how the nation of Israel too once lived in a similar cycle. But there are things we can do to break the cycle of defeat, and I believe the story of Samson offers some great spiritual advice and examples. In part 2 of our REWIND season, we continue discussing the 'Past' in our 'Past, Present, and Future' series by reviewing classic Bible stories, and the spiritual lessons that are available for our lives today.

Today, we start our new 3 part series titled, 'Past, Present, and Future'. In the first part of this series, we will be discussing the 'Past' in a season we are calling 'Rewind'. In this episode, and in future episodes to come in this season, we will be diving into classic Bible stories, and drawing spiritual truths that are applicable for us today. Abraham and Sarah found in the book of Genesis teaches us the power of faith and believing in the impossible. I hope you find encouragement in this episode!
