One Ask Away -- Ep 20 -- 10-30-21

Life Beyond the Summit -- A Faith Journey Podcast for... ·

2021/10/30

During his closing remarks, one local pastor encourages his congregation to consider that many are simply “one ask away” from coming to know God. He encourages his congregants to invite a friend to church, that is not currently going. Jim was just that guy! Jim had a friend tell him about the church, so he decided to attend. When the pastor finished his presentation, Jim responded to the Pastor’s invitation to come to know Christ. Jim had been raised in a church, was familiar with God, but did not

Doubt is a difficult thing. We see many struggle with the unanswered questions life presents. Why we experience things as we do, suffer loss, experience pain, struggle with purpose and direction. We find answers to life's questions fleeting and at times left unanswered. Faith calls us to a higher place of understanding that we will not always be able to see clearly, but provides us with a "conviction of things not seen." The Bible states "we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then I (we) shall

Experiencing Change -- Ep 18 -- 10-06-21

2021/10/07

For many, change is difficult. It requires discipline and determination. A vision of life beyond our circumstance. A willingness to consider an alternative perspective. Sometimes the familiar can render us frozen, unable to consider another way -- we can find ourselves "stuck." Without a sense of deep purpose and perhaps going through the motions. The Bible provides for an answer like none other. In Romans 12:2, the apostle Paul reminds us to "... not be conformed to the pattern of this world, but

Talking through and reflecting upon our past is valuable to the extent that we learn from our mistakes. The greatest mistake is to allow ourselves to continue down paths that lead us no where. A scripture that lends itself well with this concept is Proverbs 14:12. This scripture says that "there is a way that seem right unto men but in the end it leads to destruction." Our only hope to discovering all that God has for us is to find ourselves spending time in His word and believing his word over our

Take Hold of His Teaching -- Ep 16 -- 9-19-21

Life Beyond the Summit -- A Faith Journey Podcast for... ·

2021/09/19

A frequently quoted verse, familiar to many, is John 8:32, in which Jesus spoke these words -- "... you shall know the truth, and the truth will set you free." We do not as frequently hear what Jesus spoke in advance of these words. The complete phase includes John 8:31, Jesus said -- "If you hold to my teachings, you are really my disciples, then you will know the truth and the truth will set you free." Yes it is a free gift, but our freedom is attached to our willingness to consider the full

Harvesting Fruit -- Ep 15 -- 9-13-21

Life Beyond the Summit -- A Faith Journey Podcast for... ·

2021/09/13

Jesus used the parable of sowing seed and reaping the harvest, referencing farming to demonstrate what a relationship with Him was intended to be like. Sowing into a relationship with Him, through prayer and His word (the Bible) is what produces life changing results, results that provide for both abundance in this life as well as eternity. Paul exhorts all to forgot what lies behind, strain to what lies ahead, and press on to win the prize for which God has called us heavenward.

The Power of Words -- Ep 14 -- 9-04-21

Life Beyond the Summit -- A Faith Journey Podcast for... ·

2021/09/05

Words can either build us up or break us down. Proverbs 18:21 states that "...the power of life and death are in the tongue." Proverbs 12:18 offers an alternative voice to words -- "...speaking rashly is like a piercing sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing." Words become reality when they are reinforced through self playback or repeated use. Unlike words spoken by man, God's word is eternally settle and speaks of the purest form of truth. Replacing reckless words from our past with God's

When speaking to a new group of men, I often ask for a show of hands, those raised in a dysfunctional home. A guess as to the numbers would suggest at least 90% of hands are raised. When asked a second question -- "How many of you believe that in one way or another the dysfunction you experienced has affected your life?" -- nearly the same number raised their hands. When asked a third question -- "How many of you are open, honest, and willing to discuss your childhood experience?" -- only a few

Digging Deep -- Ep 12 -- 8-16-21

2021/08/17

In Luke 6:48, Luke gives his account of words spoken by Jesus. Jesus speaks of a man building a house, who "dug down deep and built his foundation on the rock." Spiritually speaking, are we willing to go to dig deep into ourselves, remove the masks, and allow God to do a new work in us? Are we willing to "lay aside every weight" and the past that "so easily besets us?" Are we willing to do what Jesus asks of us?

There is no other rock upon which to build. Jesus represents the rock, the solid foundation, the cornerstone, whom we can trust, rely, and depend on with our very lives. Trust the Lord with all your heart, lean not on our own understanding, but in all our ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your path – Proverbs 3:5

In Matthew 7:24 Jesus metaphorically refers those who "hear" His words and put them into practice, to the man who "built his house on the rock." He goes on to say that neither rain, rising water, or high winds will prevail against the man's house, because it "had it's foundation on the rock." What is it that you trust in, is your foundation sure, strong, and able to endure the storms of life and challenges that confront you?

In what is famously referred to as the "Sermon on the Mount," the book of Matthew Chapters 5-7, speak to what faithful obedience to knowing God looks like. In Matthew 7:24, specifically, Jesus spoke these words: "Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man ho built his house on the rock." Do we hear? Are we listening? Are our lives being transformed?

What is "Life Beyond the Summit?" Life Beyond the Summit is a ministry dedicated to seeing men break through the hardships of life and experience the "peace" and walk in the "freedom" that Jesus Christ came to offer. We define the "Summit" experience to be that of coming to know Jesus on a personal level, to accept the free gift of salvation as the "pinacle" of life's decisions. But what is next, what does life have in store for us once we have committed to following Him?
