Counterfeit Preacher: Why Critics Can't Disqualify You From God's Calling

Counterfeit Preacher: Why Critics Can't Disqualify You From God's Calling

If you are someone who had a colorful past and has been told that you are disqualified from ministry and feel discounted by the church, this episode is for you. 2 Corinthians 5:17 tells us that our old self is dead and gone as we step into a new identity in Christ, so pick your head up, ignore the noise, and focus on the cross. Critics cannot disqualify you from what God has called you to. Take every thought captive as you walk in your purpose and trust that God’s plans will never lack His provision.

Why I Stopped Posting Shirtless Devotionals

Why I Stopped Posting Shirtless Devotionals

Part of spiritual formation is developing both biblical understanding and a definitive level of self-awareness. As someone who has a high-achiever personality, I believed the gateway to acceptance was earned through achievement and aesthetics. If you were (or are) like me and have wrestled with self-worth and pride — which can only be overcome through dying to yourself and becoming more humble — this episode is for you. 

I hope that you enjoy this honest, open, transparent conversation about my journey as I grow in my relationship with Jesus.
