So if evil is real, how exactly does it work? Better yet, how does it work in your life today? In this message, Jeff draws from scripture and classic theology to show how subtle and clever Satan can be in his activity. Once you recognize his strategies, you can defeat his strategies—in your life and in the world.

So is evil real? Is there a personal power of evil at work in the world? Is it a power that you as a human being can tap into, intentionally or unintentionally? And what happens when you do? We explore those questions and more in this message.

Let’s get practical about parenting. Brett shares about major cultural shifts shaping our kids and how to parent intentionally in our cultural moment. He opens up a treasure chest of thoughts on helping kids with anxiety, screen time, exposure to pornography, stages of parenting, and a host of other topics.

U.S. statistics say that 70% of people will experience a major traumatic event in their lifetime and that 20% will develop PTSD. Sadly, in our broken world, many people experience trauma and aren’t able to process it—and, in turn, they often hurt the people around them. In addition, every day our screens alone bring us to live feeds of events that can be too much for any human being to bear. What does scripture have to say about all of this? How does Jesus want to meet us in our trauma?

What does the medical profession say about the connection between mental health and spirituality? And how do we handle the rising mental health crisis in the lives of the kids we love?

As we survey the world around us, there are many tools and resources to help, but what about the spiritual side of anxiety?

Burnout seems to be an epidemic these days. Almost everyone seems overwhelmed, overcommitted and overworked. It’s not just killing us, it’s nowhere close to the way God wants us to live. We’ll look at why burnout is running so rampant, and how to ensure you get out of it and stay out of it. 

What’s the conversation you have in your head with yourself about yourself? Whether it’s on the golf course, at work, at home, or in the car, you can at times find yourself overwhelmed by this internal conversation—and in particular, your inner critic. In this message, we’ll be looking at why your internal conversation is so important, where your inner critic comes from, and what to do about it.

In this podcast Jeff Brodie will dispel myths about mental health and share some of his own personal story.  He’ll also share a framework for how we can handle whatever comes our way by paying attention to our soul.
