  • Fitness: Stewarding the Body God Gave You - Day 4
    Feb 21 2026

    You pray for strength.

    But are you stewarding the body carrying your calling?

    In Day 4 of the 7-Day Life Realignment series, we confront a truth many believers avoid: your body is not separate from your spirituality.

    1 Corinthians 6:19 calls your body a temple of the Holy Spirit. That means neglect is not humility — and obsession is not identity.

    In this episode, we unpack:

    • The spiritual consequences of chronic exhaustion • Why burnout is not biblical • The difference between stewardship and vanity • Self-control as a fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22–23) • Rest as obedience, not weakness • How physical discipline strengthens spiritual longevity

    If you feel tired, stretched thin, constantly overwhelmed, or running on fumes — this is not about six-pack abs. It’s about sustainability.

    Your calling requires stewardship.

    Faith first. Fitness stewarded.

    Tomorrow: Finances — because alignment includes how you manage what God entrusts to you.

    Listen now. Reset your rhythm. Strengthen your vessel.

  • Family: Ministry Starts at Home - Day 3
    Feb 20 2026

    You can be strong in public… and absent in private.

    You can build influence… and slowly lose connection at home.

    In Day 3 of the 7-Day Life Realignment series, we confront a truth many leaders avoid: your greatest ministry may never be on a platform — it may be in your living room.

    Using Ephesians 5–6, Deuteronomy 6:6–7, 1 Timothy 5:8, and Psalm 127, we unpack what it means to steward your family instead of neglecting it — and how to lead spiritually without control, guilt, or performance.

    This episode addresses:

    • Emotional absence masked as busyness • Public success with private strain • Outsourcing spiritual formation • Breaking generational dysfunction • The difference between family stewardship and family idolatry

    If you’ve felt stretched thin, distracted at home, regretful about missed moments, or unsure how to lead spiritually — this message is not condemnation. It’s invitation.

    You can’t rewrite yesterday.

    But you can realign today.

    Tomorrow: Fitness — because you cannot sustain your calling if you neglect your body.

    Listen now. Lead differently. Build intentionally.

  • Faith: When God is No Longer First - Day 2
    Feb 19 2026

    Faith: When God Is No Longer First (7-Day Life Realignment – Day 2)

    You didn’t walk away from God.

    You just got busy.

    In Day 2 of this powerful 7-Day Life Realignment series, we confront a hard but healing truth: you can believe in God… serve faithfully… even lead publicly… and still slowly drift from putting Him first.

    Drift is subtle. It doesn’t feel rebellious — it feels responsible. It looks like productivity, pressure, and self-reliance replacing prayer, surrender, and intimacy.

    Using Matthew 6:33, John 15:5, Revelation 2:4, and Hebrews 11:6, we unpack what happens when Faith is no longer first — and how to return without guilt or shame.

    If you’ve felt spiritually dry, overwhelmed, distant, distracted, or exhausted… this episode is your invitation back to alignment.

    Faith first changes everything.

    Tomorrow: Family — because public faith means nothing if private responsibility collapses.

    Listen now. Realign. Return.

  • "The Devil Tempts: You Decide"
    Feb 17 2026

    Spiritual warfare is real. The enemy whispers. Temptation is powerful. But what if not every struggle is an attack?

    In this bold and compassionate episode of The Cornerstone Shield and Shelter Podcast, we confront a hard truth many Christians avoid: the devil can tempt you — but he cannot force you. At some point, you make the decision.

    If you’ve ever blamed “spiritual warfare” for repeated sin, poor discipline, financial chaos, relationship drama, or emotional reactions… this episode will challenge and empower you.

    We break down: • The difference between temptation and responsibility • What James 1 teaches about desire and choice • Why victim theology keeps believers stuck • How trauma and habits influence decisions — but don’t remove your authority • The way of escape God promises in 1 Corinthians 10:13

    This is not condemnation. This is clarity.

    Because if you’re responsible, you’re redeemable. If you chose it, you can choose differently. And the Holy Spirit inside you is stronger than the pressure around you.

    If you’re ready to grow in spiritual maturity, accountability, discipline, and true Christian freedom — this message is for you.

    Listen now and step into empowered faith.

  • Please Don't Give Up: Hope for Depression & Suicide
    Feb 16 2026

    What do you do when your own mind tells you to quit?

    In this powerful and compassionate episode of The Cornerstone Shield and Shelter Podcast, we confront one of the most painful realities of our time — depression, suicidal thoughts, and spiritual despair.

    More than one million people worldwide die by suicide each year. Countless others silently battle hopelessness, anxiety, trauma, and emotional exhaustion. If you or someone you love is struggling with depression or thoughts of giving up, this message is for you.

    In this biblically grounded yet deeply compassionate sermon, we answer difficult questions:

    • What does the Bible say about suicide? • Is suicide an unforgivable sin? • Can a Christian struggle with suicidal thoughts? • Where is God when despair feels overwhelming?

    Through Scripture, truth, and pastoral care, we dismantle the lie that your life has no future. We address the difference between sin and suffering, the reality of mental health struggles, and the hope found in Jesus Christ — even when you cannot feel it.

    This episode speaks directly to those battling depression, anxiety, trauma, emotional burnout, and spiritual darkness. It is a message of Christian hope, suicide prevention awareness, and the reminder that your story is not finished.

    If you are in crisis in the United States, you can call or text 988, the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, https://988lifeline.org/ is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You are not alone. Or you can call me 513-259-3949

  • Church Hurt or Wounded Pride?
    Feb 15 2026

    Was it spiritual abuse… or wounded pride?

    In this bold episode of The Cornerstone Shield and Shelter Podcast, we tackle one of the most uncomfortable conversations in modern Christianity. Not every correction is control. Not every conviction is abuse. And not every painful moment is trauma.

    Learn the biblical difference between church hurt and personal offense, accountability and manipulation, discipline and domination. If you’ve struggled with leadership conflict, leaving churches, or feeling spiritually wounded, this message will challenge your perspective and strengthen your discernment.

    It’s time for clarity. It’s time for maturity. It’s time for truth.

  • "Posting It Before Praying It?"
    Feb 14 2026

    Posting It Before Praying It: Prayer Before Platform

    Before you post it… have you prayed it?

    In a culture of instant expression and constant sharing, many believers process emotions publicly before surrendering them privately. We vent before we intercede. We react before we reflect. And sometimes we post what should have first been brought to God.

    In this powerful and culturally relevant episode of The Cornerstone Shield & Shelter Podcast, we examine what Scripture says about prayer, wisdom, and the order of response. Through Matthew 6:6, James 1:19, Philippians 4:6, and the example of Jesus, this message challenges believers to put prayer before platform.

    You’ll discover:

    • Why oversharing can invite the wrong voices • The difference between vulnerability and exposure • How prayer reorders emotion before public reaction • Why Jesus withdrew before He went public • How to respond with maturity in the digital age

    If you’ve ever posted while emotional, vented before praying, or sought validation instead of surrender, this episode will speak directly to you.

    Prayer doesn’t silence you — it sanctifies you.

    Christ is our Cornerstone, our Shield in the fight, and our Shelter in every season.

    Listen now and learn to pray it before you post it.
