Today on the podcast we’re talking about insecurity. When we feel like we’re “not enough,” we start comparing ourselves to other people—and that’s where things get dangerous.

In this podcast you’ll learn that:

• When we feel insecure we try to cover it by overstating ourselves
• Our insecurities lead us to judge others to make ourselves feel better
• Often what we don’t like about another person is something we project onto them.

Today on the podcast we’re talking about Jesus’ transfiguration on the mountain, witnessed by the apostles Peter, James, and John. The lesson is that Jesus was always the light; on the mountain the apostles’ vision was changed, and they were able to see His divine majesty.

In this podcast we’ll learn that:

• It’s not how you climb the mountain that matters, it’s how you walk down and do the work
• The transfiguration reminds us that we are all invited to join the Kingdom of God
• If you struggle with change, ask Jesus to help convert your heart

In today’s podcast, we’re discussing the impact that virtue can have on our lives. Many of us are searching for ways to be heroic and change the world, but we overlook the opportunities to practice virtue in ordinary moments.

Today we’re talking about the conflict that arises when we feel called to serve God and share the Word of Christ, but worry that we aren’t worthy messengers. By using examples from the Bible, we see that God doesn’t always pick perfect people to be His messengers. 

In this podcast we’ll learn that:

• The Devil loves it when we fixate on our limitations and use them as excuses to give up hope
• God is waiting on us to bring our needs before Him and ask for grace
• We have limitations but God does not
