May is Mental Health Awareness Month! This one is for you! Resilience is an action men need to adopt in the body of Christ because it is a powerful weapon against the enemy!

We unpack a lot of truths and discuss man's need to be a part of a tribe! Zach also opens up to Trey about losing his best friend Armani and how that was the hole in his heart that opened up all the other holes. Trey gives advice on how to heal from past traumas and experiences while sharing what dissociation disorder looks like in our world today.

In this powerful SOLO episode, I'm sharing vulnerable truths with you Birds! - I made the podcast my IDOL for a season. - I humble myself and get a part-time job at a familiar place. - I share my story of how I believed God for great provision but found myself looking to the world for it instead. - I repented, and God showed me that true peace and fulfillment come from Him alone not the success of a podcast. -I'm sharing struggles with emotional trauma and childhood wounds that need to be healed. - I give perspectives about the Tom Brady Roast & the Kendrick Lamar Vs. Drake Beef This episode is a raw, honest look at my journey, and I hope it will inspire you to prioritize your faith in God and seek healing and restoration in your own heart, soul, and body. This episode led to a divine blessing from the Lord and I can't wait to share that with you in due time! ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Support our ministry and show below 👇🏼 👇🏼 Texas friends come celebrate with me in person for our 4-year anniversary live audience show this Friday, May 24th, 7pm at Launchbox Collective in Fort Worth!

Ai, Aliens, and the antichrist are some buzzwords we need to look into today as Christians! There was no better guest to have on our show to do so! In this episode with Bishop Alan Didio, we cover these questions: What should Christians do about AI? Will AI benefit the AntiChrist? Are Aliens real? Why are they calling them something different now? Bishop Alan Didio comes on I Like Birds and drops wisdom about AI being an all-knowing technology that resembles what we saw during the "Tower of Babel" times. He encourages Christians to utilize it to spread the gospel. We also dive into the importance of Christian Media and how he and his team are reaching millions of people online for the sake of the Gospel! Pastor Troy Brewer connected us and this conversation fascinated me and somewhat stumped me due to Alan's brilliance on the subject! Powerful episode!

Roseann Schaub became the brownie queen of New York while committing crimes that would have likely ended up being a life sentence in prison if God didn't save her. She went from being a gang leader in NY and worshipping satan to becoming radically saved by Jesus when she cried out to the Lord. Roseann was involved in a revival that swept through her city. During this revival, she was asked to go into a prison and minister to the people imprisoned there. By His grace, he gave her a life sentence to go into the prison to share his love, healing, freedom, and forgiveness she received on the outside. To this day she is ministering at a prison in Bridgeport Texas!

Ben Fuller blesses the I Like Birds Podcast with his story of going from a suicidal teen to giving God glory in every lyric he writes! Ben went from being addicted to cocaine to being celibate, sober, and radically married to Jesus! His music reflects this new reality as every song is a testimony unto the Lord. We also discuss his tour life, encountering fans in a spiritual way, and leading men to the cross! It all started with one dinner and a church invite and now Ben is inviting people to his table to break bread and talk about Jesus! We laugh, we go deep, and we pray on this one! Powerful convo with my new friend  @BenFullerOfficial ! It was an absolute blessing considering how much I love his music!

My first-ever mission trip to prison was with a friend of the show Charlie Owens! Who went Viral on TikTok for 3 reasons: 1. God has anointed his ministry 2. He's a walking Bible & drops nuggets you never heard 3. Because he's a storyteller who draws you in & brings you closer to Christ! Come join us by the campfire and hear a deeper layer of Charlie's story. We dive into his heart for prison missions as he and I reflect on the first one we did TOGETHER in Bridgeport Texas. From there we unpack deeper truths about Jesus, Barnabas, and the thief on the cross who had a name! We also unpack the time Charlie tried to hang himself in a cell and the tough days he experienced in the psych-word after losing his mom, his wife, and his son in the same year while incarcerated. Charlie also opened up about 9 churches kicking him out before he found a church that would accept him for who he was NOW in Christ and not who he was before Him. A powerful reminder and reflection of the POWER of JESUS in a man's life! Don't miss this one! You could have seen this episode 2 weeks early if you were on our Patreon!

Neana Willis drops by the Throne Room to shine the light on the darkness that she's kept quiet about for decades. After being molested and sexually assaulted at a young age her addictions to sex and food brought her to a place of complete surrender to God. She gave her life to Christ and three months later she met her husband, who valued her in a way she's never been valued before. The two of them have battled through their own spiritual strongholds but have kept each other accountable along the way. Now Neana is shining the light on the darkness while encouraging others to do the same to experience healing, deliverance, and FREEDOM! Neana Willis is a licensed counselor who recently launched her own counseling business after 10 years of being a school teacher. She proudly holds a master's degree and gives all GLORY to God for where she is in life now!
