Hearing God’s voice is not some far off distant mystical thing reserved only for the super spiritual that takes years of fasting to accomplish. It’s available to everyone who knows Jesus and is vital for daily living. On this week’s episode we look at the voice of God in King David’s life. Plus a listener’s question on the presence of God...

God is the kindest person you will ever meet in your life. He's so good, that he answers even the smallest of prayers - the ones that are so small you might be forgiven for thinking they don't even count as thoughts let alone prayers. If that sounds too good to be true, we’ve got a bunch of stories from the Bible, our own life and even give you a 5 step process to partnering with the goodness of God.

Part 2 and a follow-up from last week’s episode. This week we are looking at the topic of slandering God; how we do it and how to stop it. Plus a listener’s question about caring for the parts of your heart that feel overwhelmed.

Who would do that, right? Well it turns out, it happens more often than we’d all like to admit. On this week’s episode we explore what it is we do that causes so much trouble in our relationships and confirm that Alyn still can’t do math.

How many of us have a thing in life we know we could do differently, but the gap between doing that thing differently is covered with landmines of more appealing, but less wise choices? Yeah us too. This week we explore a manifestation of that dynamic as Alyn is fed up being fat.

Friends are a gift from God. And there’s no better gift than this week’s guest Glenn Carter. For almost 30 years Glenn and Alyn have been close friends. Despite changes in life, vocation and location somehow they’ve kept up their friendship. On this week’s episode they talk about the secret to longevity in relationships, exploring an underground nuclear bunker and how the Holy Spirit healed Glenn’s marriage...

Many a sitcom has been written about men and their relationship with feelings. Stereotypes abound at both end of the emotional spectrum. This week Alyn sits down with some members of a feelings process group he leads, to talk about what it’s like to be men with feelings and what they do with them...

Faith is essential but what do you do when you feel like you've run out of it? What do you do when God is asking you to move forward, but you're scared? On this week's episode we talk about five simple ways to grow your faith in God.
