Nobody Special 138 | Mandalorian Season 2 and The Enemy
Caleb and Danny talks about the Mandalorian Season 2 and catch up on all things Disney Plus. Then we talk about the enemy and who Christians should actually view as the main enemy. Mandalorian is back and this time, its very much like the previous season. Still good and we loved it. It continues the story of the Mandalorian’s journey to reunite Baby Yoda with the Jedi. In this first episode, the people of a small town in Tatooine must unite with the Tusken Raiders to defeat a dragon. Then we talk about who the enemy in our spiritual battle is and how we should not turn on one another. There is a spiritual battle and it is not against flesh and blood. Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. (‭Ephesians‬ ‭6:10-13‬ ‭ESV)We want to hear from you!

Nobody Special 137 | Spooky Movies and Masks
Caleb and Danny celebrate the spooky season by talking about our favorite Halloween movies. Then we talk about the idea of wearing spiritual masks and approaching God in honesty and sincerity. Everyone to some extent struggles with wearing masks while we try and approach God. Yet, it is God who tells us to approach Him in confidence and understanding that when we come to Him, we can come as we are while not staying there. God wants us to come to Him and He will care for us and reveal Himself to us for His glory. Christ is even in the struggle. “Come, everyone who thirsts, come to the waters; and he who has no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Why do you spend your money for that which is not bread, and your labor for that which does not satisfy? Listen diligently to me, and eat what is good, and delight yourselves in rich food. Incline your ear, and come to me; hear, that your soul may live; and I will make with you an everlasting covenant, my steadfast, sure love for David. Behold, I made him a witness to the peoples, a leader and commander for the peoples. Behold, you shall call a nation that you do not know, and a nation that did not know you shall run to you, because of the Lord your God, and of the Holy One of Israel, for he has glorified you.” (Isaiah 55:1-5, ESV)We want to hear from you!

Nobody Special 136 | Trusting in God
Trusting in God can be difficult, but it often times puts us in the place that we need to be. Caleb and Danny talk about what it means to trust in God and in his presence. Also we talk about ropes courses and what is up with those. Trusting in the Lord comes from being humble, understanding that the things we can do are a grace of God to do them and the things we cannot do are a chance to glorify God by trusting in Him. It is through God that we can do anything and everything we can do comes from trusting Him. Caleb and Danny tell the stories of trusting in God and where they have needed to have faith in Him the most. “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord , and turn away from evil. It will be healing to your flesh and refreshment to your bones.” (Proverbs 3:5-8, ESV)We want to hear from you! Ask us questions or just say hi!

Nobody Special 135 | Stress, Anxiety, and Crash Bandicoot
Crash Bandicoot gives Danny a fair amount of stress and anxiety. Good news is that the Bible has something to say about that. Stress and anxiety. Not Crash Bandicoot. Join us in an open and candidate discussion of stress and anxiety. It seems that this culture is struggling with anxiety and stress. Even Caleb and Danny are not immune to the struggles and difficulties that come from stress. On this episode we talk about anxiety, how we notice it in ourselves and how we deal with the pressure we face. In our experience, so much of our reaction comes from centering our vision on the Lord even in the middle of difficult times. “Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice. Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand; do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.”(‭‭Philippians‬ ‭4:4-8‬ ‭ESV) “For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ, being ready to punish every disobedience, when your obedience is complete.”(‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭10:4-6‬ ‭ESV) We want to hear from you!

Nobody Special 134 | Rooster Teeth and Christian Fame
Vice Presidential Debates, Universal Studios, and Internet Entertainment Company Rooster Teeth. What do all these things have in common? Caleb and Danny talk about them on this week’s episode of Nobody Special. It’s a potpourri of topics today people. Caleb and Danny got to spend some time in Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida where we learn Danny’s true feelings on roller coasters. Also, we touch on the vice presidential debates and what happened and why is no one yelling, this is a debate! Finally we talk about Rooster Teeth and the recent allegations and drama that has occurred with this internet superstar company (albeit definitely not Christian content, full disclosure). We look at the problems of fame and whether the Christian should even pursue fame as a means of living. “Now concerning brotherly love you have no need for anyone to write to you, for you yourselves have been taught by God to love one another, for that indeed is what you are doing to all the brothers throughout Macedonia. But we urge you, brothers, to do this more and more, and to aspire to live quietly, and to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, as we instructed you, so that you may walk properly before outsiders and be dependent on no one.” (1 Thessalonians 4:9-12, ESV)Question of the week: What are the idols in our life that we are dependent on? If you want to reach out to Nobody Special, go to Nobody Special and fill out a form at the bottom of the page.

Nobody Special 133 | Presidential Debates and Loving One Another
Breathe in. Breathe out. Andrew Steier from Student Gospel Outreach drops by to guest host. So naturally, we talk about the peaceful subject of the first Presidential Debate. Breathe in. Breathe out. It's gonna be alright. The first presidential debate has occurred and America seems to be almost in agreement, that was a dumpster fire of a debate. Andrew and Danny discuss the impact of the debate and the example being set by the leadership of both potential presidents. Then we turn our attention to what it means to demonstrate the love of Christ in this circumstance. We have an opportunity to be the light of the world to those around us by showing the world the love we have founded on the hope of Jesus Christ. When he had gone out, Jesus said, “Now is the Son of Man glorified, and God is glorified in him. If God is glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and glorify him at once. Little children, yet a little while I am with you. You will seek me, and just as I said to the Jews, so now I also say to you, ‘Where I am going you cannot come.’ A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” (John 13:31-35, ESV)If you want to support Andrew Steier or Student Gospel Outreach, or, just to find out more information, go to http://studentgo.org.

Nobody Special 132 | Truth and the Currency of Attention
On this episode, we talk about truth, where our attention lies, and what lies to our attention. Also we talk about the rash of movies coming out and apparently what the kids from Stranger Things are doing. Netflix has some new movies coming out. No, not that one. Hubie Halloween comes out this Halloween. As another Adam Sandler movie, will it be good? Probably not. Will we love every minute of it? Absolutely. Also Enola Holmes comes out this week to give a new take on a classic story. But like for teens. I guess. Danny is actually editing the show while watching this to see if its actually any good. Then we turn our attention to attention. As we gear up for a contentious election season, everyone seems to be sharing news article, fact checking them, and debating their interpretation. Attention has become the new currency for people and as Christians, we must always be aware who has our attention and allegiance the most. God is truth and anything not in Him is not truth. “Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. And you know the way to where I am going.” Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?” Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on you DO know him and have seen him.” (‭‭John‬ ‭14:1-7,‬ ‭ESV)Where do you see the battle for truth in this generation? We want to hear from you!

Nobody Special 130 | Tenet, Time, And Stewardship
We saw Tenet. In a movie theater. Twas glorious. Might as well talk about the movie and God’s sovereignty over time. So, just some light easy conversation today. Christopher Nolan’s Tenet recently came out in theaters marking the return of the movie theater. Caleb and Danny went and oh boy do we need to talk about this movie and the various aspects of it. With a movie engaging in time travel as a theme and plot we talk about the time we have been given and how we can steward the time we have been given. The Parable of the Man and Lazarus (Luke 16:19-30)Do you have any thoughts about anything we talked about today?

Nobody Special 129 | As Iron Sharpens Iron
Community. It’s not just an older show on NBC but a vital part of the Christian’s life and spiritual walk. Join Caleb and Danny as they talk about what God is teaching them in community. Also, we talk about how 2020 is essentially a mulligan of a yearThe Christian is called to a life of community with other Christians. This community provides many benefits to spiritual growth and well being. Caleb recounts what God has been teaching him these past couple of weeks with getting to be a part of community and how to engage with others in the faith. ‘Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near. (Hebrews 10:23-25)Also, we get into the idea of sharpening one another in community. “Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another.” ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭27:17‬ ‭ESVDo you have any thoughts about anything we talked about today?
