À propos de ce contenu audio

Through Uncomfortable Grace, I create space for honest, Spirit-led conversations that challenge the Church to return to truth, unity, and holiness. Each episode confronts the hard stuff... sin, division, lukewarm faith and invites listeners into deeper surrender, practical discipleship, and a revived relationship with Jesus. This isn’t about surface-level inspiration... it’s about transformation.

    • When the Church Makes Peace With Death: Abortion, the Death Penalty, and the Gospel We Keep Avoiding
      Feb 10 2026

      Send a text

      When compassion gets confused with killing and dignity is used to dress up death, it’s time to slow down and ask what God has actually said. We trace a straight line from Genesis to the Gospels to show why human life is sacred, how the image of God grounds dignity beyond productivity or autonomy, and why death is never a solution in the kingdom Jesus announced. Along the way, we take on the hard question many Christians avoid: can a pro-life ethic make peace with the death penalty? Drawing from a Wesleyan lens, we wrestle with justice, protection of the innocent, and the space grace needs to work, even behind bars.

      You’ll hear a clear case for choosing life that isn’t about party lines or slogans. We name how a culture of death takes root—by making worth conditional, calling killing care, and treating dependence as weakness—and we contrast that with Jesus’ pattern: moving toward the sick, raising the dead, and defeating the grave through resurrection. We address common pushbacks around compassion, choice, and judgment, and show how biblical compassion never ends a life to ease pain. Instead, it bears suffering with people and refuses to trade a person’s future for our present comfort.

      Our goal is not to win arguments, but to call the church back to faithfulness where truth and mercy meet. If resurrection is real, death is the enemy, not a tool. Join us as we challenge easy narratives, repent of failures, and commit to protecting every life—unborn, disabled, elderly, incarcerated, and even guilty—because Jesus is Lord of life and death doesn’t get the final word.

    • Guarding Scripture In A Heated Debate About Immigration
      Jan 27 2026

      What happens when politics borrows the language of the pulpit? We open the door on a hard conversation: immigration, slogans that sound compassionate, and the subtle ways the church can trade theological depth for quick applause. Our aim isn’t to inflame, but to shepherd—calling out misused scripture while holding fast to mercy, order, and the lordship of Jesus.

      We dig into the claim “Jesus was an immigrant,” exploring why the heart behind it matters and why the history doesn’t fit modern categories. From there, we challenge the assumption that empathy justifies lawlessness, tracing a biblical thread from creation’s order to Israel’s laws to the early church’s discipline. Grace doesn’t dissolve boundaries; it transforms people within them. Along the way, we ask why easy slogans spread faster than truth and how repentance, not affirmation, keeps the gospel alive in our hearts.

      Drawing on a Wesleyan lens—Scripture as primary authority, with tradition, reason, and experience in their proper place—we offer a path to love immigrants without twisting texts. We unpack how turning Jesus into a political mascot silences his lordship, and how weaponized compassion, however well-intended, distorts the gospel’s call to holiness. The final charge is simple and demanding: love the stranger, pursue justice, resist cruelty, and refuse to bend Scripture to our instincts. Uncomfortable grace is still grace, and truth spoken in love still stands.

      If this conversation helps you think more clearly and love more faithfully, share it with a friend, subscribe for more thoughtful theology, and leave a review to help others find the show.

    • When “More Loving” Becomes Less True
      Jan 27 2026

      Send us a text

      A single line from Matthew 7 can steady or shatter the soul of a preacher, and it’s the line that drives this conversation: not everyone who says “Lord, Lord” will enter the kingdom of heaven. We wrestle with how a “more gracious” gospel can sound compassionate while quietly redefining obedience, minimizing repentance, and removing the shape of discipleship. Instead of abstract theology, we trace concrete consequences—how words from the pulpit form consciences, how silence can masquerade as kindness, and why Jesus reserves his sharpest warnings for those who mislead the vulnerable.

      We unpack a crucial distinction: grace doesn’t lower God’s standard; it lifts the sinner to it. That lens reframes familiar debates about holiness, self-denial, and the narrow gate. Drawing on James’s charge that teachers are judged with greater strictness and Ezekiel’s watchman imagery, we consider the weight of pastoral responsibility. We also revisit John Wesley’s vision of transforming grace and social holiness, clarifying how the Wesleyan quadrilateral only holds when Scripture governs experience, tradition, and reason—not the other way around.

      Across these themes, one thread holds: sincerity isn’t safety. Paul’s warnings about “another Jesus” and “another gospel” are not relics; they are pastoral guardrails for a church tempted to trade revelation for affirmation. The goal here isn’t outrage but reverent clarity. We invite you to test everything by Scripture, let love speak truth without flinching, and recover the courage to warn because warning is love. If this conversation makes you tremble, you’re standing in the right place. Share this with a friend, subscribe for more, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway so we can keep the dialogue honest and hopeful.
