“I Spent Every Easter Bullying Pastors For Fun” (Ex-Gangster Admits) | #055
In this episode, I break down why treating Easter as a one-day tradition is destroying your daily discipline, and how true Christian freedom means learning to fight from victory instead of fighting for it.

Ex Gang Member Turned Pastor Meets The Man Changed His Life | #054
Mark Laita, the creator of Soft White Underbelly, sits down with me to reveal why he dumped $3.5 million of his own money into interviewing people on America's most dangerous streets, and the dark parenting truths he learned along the way.

Today, I had to give you guys the hard truth about why God actually keeps Satan alive on a leash to expose your hidden idols and completely shatter your self-righteousness.

How to Stop Intrusive Thoughts Without Fighting Them | #053
I open up about my dark past as a manipulator to reveal the spiritual truth behind why God actually allows us to suffer from intrusive, negative thoughts. We dive deep into the dangers of performative Christianity, explaining why fighting your own mind is a losing battle and how true freedom only comes when you stop trying to manufacture your own holiness and surrender completely to God's grace.

Every Christian Has This Hidden Monster Inside Them (Do You?) | Discord Stage #39
Guys, I have a confession to make: I recently almost crashed out on one of my best friends over a joke, and God used that exact moment to show me that we everyday Christians are just as sensitive and corrupt as the elites we love to judge. In this livestream, we’re getting brutally honest about killing our egos, why trying to stop your own sinning is actually a trap of self-righteousness, and how true freedom only comes when you admit you’re entirely helpless and let Jesus take over.

Your Pastor Won’t Tell You This About Faith, So I Will | Discord Stage #38
I expose the toxic "good Christian" delusion and explain why begging for forgiveness every time you sin is actually an insult to Jesus's finished work on the cross. We dive into the true meaning of the Pool of Bethesda, the story of a death-row inmate who understood grace better than most churchgoers, and why trusting your own feelings is essentially calling God a liar.

Why Does God Bless Others Instead of You? | #051
I’m showing you why your "butt hurt" over someone else’s blessing is actually God’s way of exposing your heart's comparison before it turns into pride. I'm breaking down the "Wait vs. No" formula to prove that when God closes a door or subtracts something from your life, He’s actually just making room to multiply you in His perfect timing.

God protects the vulnerable and asks us to trust Him even when we do not understand, reminding us that coming back to Him matters more than never struggling.
