E865 | Wild at Heart Stories - T.J. Greaney & Kids Outdoor Zone

Our stories borrow their shape from the Gospel story, and the Gospel story is rife with betrayal. In this world, all of us will experience some form of betrayal. Our ability to process and recover from it will define the health of our families, churches, communities, and hearts. John, Blaine, and Allen kick off this series by describing the three major forms of betrayal, how it differs from ordinary hurt, the erosion of the fabric of trust, and what to do when you're betrayed.

When we pursue growth in our relationship with God and others, the expectation is life will get better—not harder. Yet greater maturity often comes with greater opposition. If we believe hard things are bad, then we'll assume either we're blowing it or God is holding out. That's not true. The answer isn't to make a peace treaty with what's coming against you to return to simpler, easier times. In this pivotal message, John and Allen unveil who Threshold Guardians are, what their strategy is, and how God invites us into greater intimacy with him in the challenges we face.

To celebrate the release of Stasi's new book, The Ladder of Love, she joins John to offer more insights into the distinct ways we can see, know, and love Jesus and God—and in return, be seen, known, and loved by them.

In this podcast, John and Allen answer viewer and listener questions on a wide variety of topics—from how concerned we should be over AI's unrelenting expansion and whether the unseen realm can influence AI, to what it means to be a modern Desert Father or Mother, whether people could choose to rebel in the coming Kingdom, if God cares where we go to church, what the Eclipse of God warfare is, and if miscarriage is ever God's will.
