Btw, I didn't realize I wasn't subscribed. I follow you on Spotify. You have 100 Subscribers congrats 🎉!!!!

Great tips, I'm not so wasteful with my time but I lack organization. My family and I heard most of this on the way to church in the morning via Spotify. I think where we're most dysfunctional is our sleeping patterns. Thanks for the gentle guidance.

Great job! This is my first time hearing your podcast on Spotify, and I’m really glad to know there are people out there feeding the sheep and helping others get closer to Christ. I appreciate how you bring things in a way that’s easy to understand for the average person. Dr. Dustin recommended your channel, and I’m thankful you're on Spotify so I can listen while driving. I also agree with your thoughts on angels and marriage - the scripture wasn’t meant to cover everything about human futures but gives context to the question. Keep up the good work!

Thanks so much for doing this podcast and pointing toward the biblical view of God--The father alone is God.

Loved the video thanks for doing this!

Thanks for your detailed presentation of Jesus.

Thanks for the encouragement to find balance with worthwhile hobbies. I hope others watch this and find the wholeness it can bring them.

New here, and I’m glad I stumbled upon this video. I’m a 37 year old Christian woman and grew up very Baptist. My dad was a Baptist pastor and I went to Liberty University. My dad *hated* tradition, absolutely hated it. He believed that unless something was spelled out in Scripture, it was man made and therefore completely invalid. (He left the church in 2010 after having an affair and embezzling church money, so it’s not like I value any of his religious teachings BTW.) As an adult, I’ve always gone to nondenominational churches. I’m married and have two kids (5 and 1). Since Covid started, I have felt like something is hugely missing from my walk with God, and specifically from my church experience. Week after week, I’d go to church and leave completely unfulfilled. I wasn’t learning anything new. I wasn’t being challenged. I’d walk into a dark sanctuary, sit through a rock concert where everyone else was swaying and jumping up and down and having these emotional experiences, followed by a message where the pastor cherry picked Bible verses to fit into their feel-good sermon. Everyone left on their merry way and had nothing to do with each other until the next Sunday. There were no other services, infrequent small groups, no service opportunities, nothing. And this wasn’t just one church. This was every church I went to. A while back, I started watching Matt Whitman’s channel, where he visits churches of different traditions (Catholic, Anglican, Orthodox, Lutheran, and others), and they walk him through what a typical service looks like and then they talk theology and traditions. So interesting. But that made me realize that everything I’ve known about Christianity and church was through the lens of the Baptist and evangelical churches and university I’ve attended. I *never* learned about the church calendar or church history or why other churches do things differently, apart from being told how wrong they were. One common thread I’ve seen in many of these videos, which has resonated with me, is the importance of tradition. As I said, my dad and Baptists in general, tend to be against religious traditions, seeing them as sort of “added to the Gospel.” But, I see so much beauty in it. I see value in the reminders of what we believe and why and who we’re serving. I see value in repetition and tradition. I see benefits to having a strong sense of community and fellowship with one another. I’m so done with this “show up 5 minutes late to the concert and bolt the second it’s over” version of church. I’m still figuring things out and figuring out where I belong. Anyway, thank you for this informative video.

Good thoughts! One recommendation: Excise the “yet” at 7:09 (from your thoughts)…ie recognize that not all marry, so single people are not “not married YET”; we are “not married.” This is important for recognizing and treating us as real adults, real Christians, true and regular people…not half-baked “almost there” overgrown teenagers;).

If one is interested in living in accordance with a liturgical calendar, one might be interested in Maria Von Trapp's "Around the Year with the Von Trapp Family." She was prompted to write it because the sense of liturgical time that was normal in her native Austria was absent when she and her family escaped to the United States. The book is currently in print and available on Amazon. It was written after the significant alterations to Holy Week under Pope Pius XII but before the rather more revolutionary changes following the Second Vatican Council, but since it is about Christian culture within the home rather than liturgical minutiae, I assume it is still applicable for Western Christians interested in their own tradition.

Thank you for your helpful and encouraging tips to bring order to the chaos of life.

Thanks for this episode. I'm glad that season two is kicking off. I found your discussion about ministry opportunities helpful and encouraging. I especially found useful the reminder that quality of ministry is more important than quantity. Thank you for the good tips, applications, and I hope the pregnancy goes smoothly. Welcome back!

I'm looking forward to your next ten episodes. Good job on all the work you put into these episodes.

I really like the wisdom behind your suggestion to "keep the good, but get rid of the rest." Social media can be used for good (to share truths, encourage, congratulate, etc.), but it can also encourage depression, anxiety, and the wasting of time. Thanks for your relevant and important message. Keep up the good work!

Another great and thought-provoking episode. Thanks for all your hard work you put into this each week.

I kept checking the blog to see if you had already finished your statement of faith. I was glad to hear in this episode that you are still working through it (I won't look again until you mention that you have it completed). No use rushing something that important, right? As for this episode's main topic, it got me thinking about seeking first the kingdom of God (Matt 6:33) as a rule of life for Christ-followers. Thanks for the stimulating episode and for all the good work you put into this. I appreciate it.

Just got around to listening to this. Very important work being done here. I do hope listeners take your call to action to heart. It is important to know what we believe and why we believe it. It is also important to dialogue respectfully with others regarding a different in beliefs (maybe they have some truth that I need to hear).

What if my brain is so cluttered… that I just throw myself away… check and mate

It would be neat to see an upcoming episode where you lay out your practical theology, thus giving an example to your listeners on how to do this important act. I do wonder about how to rightly balance the need to be faithful/obedient while not sliding into legalism. You mention both, and it is clear that you encourage the former over the latter. Overall, good stuff. This is one of your better episodes and I personally will be eager to see the forthcoming episodes in this series. Thanks.

John 6:53

I ask myself this question daily.

If this is your content I feel bad for you. No one cares

You are beautiful ❤

Another solid episode with loads of helpful tips and advice that can be easily integrated into practical living.

This was a great episode that doubles as a full-length sermon. Its applications are worthwhile during any month of the year, not just here in February. Thanks, Cayce, for the excellent and motivating content.
