Failure to Plan

Struggling for Purpose ·

2020/02/29

Failure to plan has been the biggest hurdle in my podcasting “career”. I’m not sure you can actually call it a career, but, I think you know what I mean. What happens when I fail to plan is that I end up recording an episode of my podcast by myself the morning it needs to be released. If I’m being honest with myself, I expected this to happen and subconsciously planned to record an episode by myself about failing to plan. If hearing me talk about how I’ve

7 Ways I’ve Failed at Podcasting Since 2005

Struggling for Purpose ·

2020/01/30

Failure is an option. Yes, you read that right. Failure is an option. We often hear the opposite, that failure isn’t an option, and this gives Christians and podcasters (like myself) a skewed view on life, faith, and success. The Bible is full of accounts where “the faithful” failed. While many Christians are familiar with a few of these stories, most don’t embrace them. We forget that books like Lamentations, Job, Jonah, and Ecclesiastes are there for us to

So, without further ado, here are the 12 Books of Christmas! 1. Haunted House Flipper Ray is a friendless realtor who stumbles on some supernatural tools,

2019/12/20

‘Tis the season to take a break from podcasting. Many podcasters, including myself, tend to get a little lazy around this time of the year. In keeping with that tradition, I present to you a brief little podcast that includes content from Truce, by Chris Staron. I interviewed Chris when he started Truce and I’ve become a huge fan of the podcast. He was kind enough to share a segment with the Christian Podcasters Association that members could use in their podcast. I hope you
