Episode 45 - Motives, Gamestop, justice and finding truth - Discussion

In this episode: Jayson, Bryan, Caleb and Tommy tackle a recent letter sent by a recent investor in Gamestop who risked his finances out of defending his dad.  We take on this discussion based on the previous episode of Finding Truth.  We examine our world today in the difference of seeking vengeance and standing for justice based in truth. We also address the question, "How does God feel about these matters and are they relevant to ones spiritual life?"
We also explore how our world has eliminated a face to face discussion that allows for debate while maintaining a relationship with the one you are debating.
This and more in this episode.

Episode 44 - What is truth? - Discussion

In this episode, we take on this question and address the cultural issue of the relativity of truth.  We begin with the Rudyard Kipling poem - IF.  Using this as a backdrop of what happens to an individual who is established in truth and how does that affect the world around you. We see this in Jesus interaction with pilot who originally posed this question, What is truth?  Then proceeded to wash his hands of the responsibility of it.We also discuss: personal truth, group truth and the Truth.  This will begin a series around this idea as how can you discover you true identity without a foundation of truth in which it is built.Please comment or ask questions:outboundlife.orgtelegram.com/outboundlifetelegram.com/mission300

Episode 43 - In search of hope and finding courage

In this episode, we continue around the idea of finding courage with the emphasis around a need for hope.  Not just a natural hope of situations changing, but an internal hope that takes you beyond the circumstances into a new reality.  We utilize the most profound speech in Lord of the Rings, The Two Towers, to highlight this idea. Tommy and Caleb bring out most of the discussion from a young college students perspective.  We also bring back the conversation to the principles of Identity and Strength that build an inner fortitude regardless of what is placed against you.

Episode 41 - Jepthah - A man God's integrity

In this episode, Jayson and Bryan dive into the world of Jepthah and what Jesus saw when He read of him.  A deliverer from the book of Judges that has taken a lot of criticism for an unfortunate conflict that came about due to the integrity to his word.
He was a man of valor, but born of a prostitute, kicked out of his family and inheritance.  The result left him to roam the land with his band of worthless men.  What we are sure of is that he was righteous and a man of integrity.
In this discussion we discover is something more powerful, that our God and Father, will not break his word or promise even to His own hurt.  The picture of Jepthah also reveals the what happens to a people that ignore integrity and pursue their own interests without regard to their promises.

Episode 40 - The Bible is irrelevent...concede and shut up

In this episode, Jayson and Bryan tackle the modern day pressure to conform to the loudest voices.  We explore how the truths of the Bible are OK, to the powers that be, as long as they do not go against the masses.  This is taking place on a grand scale in every area of our lives. Asking questions is an important part of who we are, yet it is not always welcomed.  How should we respond?  What is the "Christian Way"? Shouldn't we just go with the flow?  We also show the actions and response of the characters of the Old Testament, New Testament and Jesus respond to this kind of actions.We welcome your comments!outboundlife.orgfacebook.com/outboundlifetwitter.com/myoutboundlifeparler.com/outboundlife

Episode 39 - Learning to see what you have never seen

In this episode, Jayson and Bryan explore the idea of what is like to see for the first time, whether physically, mentally or spiritually.  How it changes our reality and the interaction with truths we have not understood. Our world looks to change the truth. However, t is not the truth that changes, rather, our position towards the truth. This comes off the observations of the first blind man healed.  This episode sets the stage for the upcoming episodes where we are going back into the biblical characters of old and discovering what Jesus and the Father observed in them. We may be shocked that we have assumed a wrong conclusion.outboundlife.orgfacebook.com/outboundlifetwitter.com/myoutboundlife

Episode 38 - Jesus offers the first red pill

In this episode, Jayson and Bryan explore the first red pill (a play on words off the movie Matrix) offered to the first blind man ever healed. When we peel back the layers on this miraculous event, we see that what was the most liberating experience for this man was also naturally a great loss as well. Job loss, family rejection, and community excommunication also came from this eye opening experience.  We see a family that was more concerned with saying the right words than speaking the truth out of fear of the community leaders. 
We explore this and share stories on the transformation and cost of having your eyes opened.
