We built a Lego centerpiece with over 800 pieces on this week's show at 28:00. As well as introducing the show's new co-host. We have in-depth conversations about what scripture tells us about holding our tongue and why Legos are better than puzzles. To add more context, we talk about what a bit is for a horse around the eight-minute mark, why they are essential, and how a captain steers a ship. This is truly one of our best conversations, and we hope you will give the whole thing a listen and subscribe. If you need a Bible, just let us know in the comments and show your most recent Lego build. Next time, our co-host will try and complete a puzzle within the length of the show. You won't want to miss it.

He challenges believers to embrace trials and temptations, recognizing them as opportunities for growth and perseverance. James understands that through our trials, our faith is tested and refined, ultimately leading to spiritual maturity. In the face of trials, James encourages us to seek wisdom from God, who generously grants it to those who ask without doubting. This call to trust in God's wisdom reminds us that we are not alone in our struggles. God is ever-present, ready to guide us through life's challenges if we humbly seek His guidance. Throughout this chapter, James also emphasizes the power of self-control, particularly in relation to our speech. He encourages us to bridle our tongues, recognizing that our words have the ability to build up or tear down. By harnessing our speech and using it to spread love, encouragement, and truth, we can positively impact those around us and foster healthy relationships. Thank you for joining us on this journey.

In this week's topic, we delve into the idea of evangelism and our responsibility to spread the good news of Jesus. Should we boldly proclaim the gospel to others or only do so if we feel convicted by the Holy Spirit? Who is supposed to evangelize, and is it a biblical concept or a man-made doctrine? We explore these questions more as we examine the Great Commission in Matthew 28:16-20.

We're diving into one of the most significant issues that strong men face in today's society: the lack of emotional vulnerability. Men are pressured by societal pressure to "man up," not show emotions, and be tough. This can lead to burying emotions until they become too heavy to bear. But we're here to break that cycle and discuss the importance of leaning on each other with a Biblical perspective. We're all created for a purpose; living that out starts with vulnerability. While it's not easy, the work to get to a place of emotional vulnerability is worth it. Your friends and family will thank you, and most importantly, you'll be able to break free from the weight holding you back and walk in the light Jesus has called you to. If you're ready to join a community of like-minded individuals also seeking emotional vulnerability, our men's group is open and ready to meet you. Shoot us a DM on IG or FB @lightyourlamp. Let's break free from the weight together. emotionalvulnerability #mentalhealthawareness #menandmentalhealth #breakthestigma #mentalhealthrecovery #selfcare #mentalwellness #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthsupport #mentalhealtheducation

As we dive into John 19 and talk about the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, were pulling out three things that really stood out to us. The first being of Pilate; as he struggles with finding Jesus guilty of anything, he is overcome by the pressure of the thousands gathered telling him what to do. The next is that Jesus ensures that His mother (Mary) is cared for by the one he loves. Lastly, we will discuss "it is finished" and the statement's impact on us. We know there is a lot to unpack here and talk about, and we cover it all, but these three things are what we feel the Holy Spirit is leading us to share. No chatbot script, straight from the Spirit. If you get to the end, you will see that Ben needed to take a moment to sit and collect himself before closing out. Also, don't forget our Bible studies are now on Tuesdays. We look forward to diving into scripture with you and can't wait to hear how God is moving in your life. Let us know in the comments.
