TWO AM IGreg Ryan: The unimaginable secret that led to a new direction and purposeEpisode 6: Greg Ryan Greg Ryan carried an unimaginable secret for 54 years. It was one he was embarrassed to share. One that didn’t allow him to plan ahead. One that resulted in a life of shame, social stigma and intense mental health difficulties. And one that would eventually lead him into a dark place, and then out again, and inevitably to where he was meant to be. Greg was born without an anal opening, a congenital abnormality known as Imperforate Anus. And it was finding ‘his tribe’ that propelled him on a mission to establish the ONE in 500...

2023-11-1937 minSo I Was Reading...Is God Even Listening?Pastor Greg delves into Psalm 5 and talks about David’s trust in the Lord even when it seems – at least at first glance – that God might not actually be paying attention to his plight at the hands of powerful foes. David – like many people today – asks God if he has His ear, but – unlike many today – David shows that he knows the answer to his own question.
2023-11-1412 minSo I Was Reading...Don't Forget GodIn this week’s episode, Pastor Greg reflects on King David’s sickness in Psalm 38, and discusses David’s lament that, when deathly ill, he is unable to stand against his enemies – and ultimately those who oppose God - who attack him for no reason. Greg equates the situation to Jesus’ trial and execution, as well as to the attacks we face when we are weakened by sickness, whether physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual.
2023-10-2413 minSo I Was Reading...The Way Is the Way Is the Only WayIn episode 33 of the “So I Was Reading” Podcast, Pastor Greg is told to read Romans 5:1-11 where he is reminded that we have gained peace with God through His Son, our Lord and Savior Jesus. Throughout history, men and women have tried to introduce obstacles to block us from approaching Jesus, our Christ, our Way to the Father, and Greg notes that these obstacles are unbiblical and are actually denounced by scripture which clearly reveals Jesus as the Way to the Father, and that we need no other way to reach Jesus.
2023-10-1713 minSo I Was Reading...Why So Many Choices?Today’s scripture reading of Deuteronomy 13:1-4 prompts Pastor Greg to consider the questions, If the God of the Bible is really the One, True God, then why are there so many options out there? and then the logical follow up, What exactly does it mean to “love God” anyway?
2023-10-1012 minSo I Was Reading...So Where Is Your FaithIn today’s podcast Pastor Greg reads Luke 8:22-25 to address Jesus’s questioning of His disciples’ faith as they faced a literal life-threatening storm, then poses the same question of faith to us as we each encounter the sometimes literal, sometimes figurative storms in our own lives.
2023-10-0310 minSo I Was Reading...So What's the Skin For?Pastor Greg reads Deuteronomy 10:12-22 and contemplates the meaning of “circumcising the heart,” the reason for the practice of covenantal circumcision, and how the physical act of circumcision is an incredibly fitting symbol for a life – male or female - committed to God and to His kingdom.
2023-09-1913 minSo I Was Reading...To See or Not to See, That Is the QuestionThis week’s podcast “focuses” on Mark 5:21-32 and discusses the chief priests’ and scribes’ statement that they would believe that Jesus is the Christ if He save Himself from the cross. Pastor Greg takes us on a walk through Isaiah and Leviticus to show that this statement makes no sense in the context of the very scripture they know and teach, and that sometimes we may be guilty of doing the same thing – of demanding a “proof” that wouldn’t be a proof at all.
2023-09-1216 minSo I Was Reading...When You Pray for the Answer You AreIn episode 27, Pastor Greg looks at the story of Ruth and learns that sometimes God’s answer to our prayers is actually right in front of us in our own mirrors.
2023-09-0511 minSo I Was Reading...Why Did God Answer My Prayer That Way?In today’s scripture reading of Deuteronomy 7:16-26, Pastor Greg looks at one of the different ways God will sometimes answer prayer and recognizes that, because of His omniscience and our limited view, we just have to trust that He knows what He’s doing even when we don’t understand what He’s doing, and He knows why He’s doing it the way He is even when we think we have a better way.
2023-08-2913 minSo I Was Reading...Oh, Say... Can You See?In the first episode of Season 2 of the “So I Was Reading” Podcast, Pastor Greg dives into the book of John, his favorite book, and looks at chapter 14, verses 15-27. He looks at the question of how it is that Jesus reveals Himself to His followers but not to the world, and why ‘the world’ doesn’t understand that Jesus does still reveal Himself to His followers even though they, the world, can’t see it... It should all make sense after you listen.
2023-08-2214 minSo I Was Reading...Hearing the Voice of GodToday’s podcast recounts the giving of the Ten Commandments to the Israelites as retold by Moses in Deuteronomy 5. Greg reads verses 22-29, and looks at the Israeli response to hearing God’s voice, and then briefly discusses what it means to hear His voice today.
2023-06-0615 minSo I Was Reading...The Temple of GodIn this week’s episode of “So I Was Reading,” Pastor Greg reads Ephesians 2:21-22 and looks at the Temple of God, both the brick-and-mortar version of the temple and the living-stone version. If you don’t know what that means, then today’s podcast is probably for you.
2023-05-3015 minMid Life AthleteS3E12 One Man's Quest to Lift 200 Elephants!Jason and Greg are back interviewing amazing mid life athletes. In this episode we chat to Matthew Forgham, who was part of a team of 6 men shifting 1 million kg of weight in 24 hours. The challenge was to raise awareness and funds for endometriosis, a condition that affects one in ten women, (176 million women globally). Matthew was the only mid life athlete. The challenge involved using free weights (weighted squats, deadlifts, barbell rows and bench press) to move the 1 million kg. The weight is the equivalent of lifting and moving 200 fully grown elephants!You can donate here: https://w...
2023-05-2750 minSo I Was Reading...Going 'Your Own' WayMark 10:46-52 relates the tale of Blind Bartimaeus, and Pastor Greg contemplates Jesus’ instruction to him to “Go his own way,” as well as what this command means to us today.
2023-05-2310 minSo I Was Reading...One Body, One IdentityIn this episode of “So I Was Reading,” Pastor Greg reads Colossians 3:1-17 and contrasts how the world wants to divide us with how Christ, who is our Life, wants to unite us and give us an new identify as one in the image of our Creator.
2023-05-1615 minSo I Was Reading...The Sin of Not Doing StuffPastor Greg reads Malachi 3:14-18 and looks at the sins of pride and arrogance that are natural by-products of spiritually idle hands and feet.
2023-05-0914 minSo I Was Reading...I Think - Sometimes It Is Better to ReceiveToday, Pastor Greg reads Mark 9:33-37 and talks about what it means to do things “In Jesus’ Name,” and why it is so important to do things “In Jesus’ Name.”
2023-05-0214 minSo I Was Reading...When to ShareIn todays podcast, Greg reads 2 Timothy 3:1-7 and 4:1-5 and discusses the imperative of sharing the Good News of the Gospel whether anybody—even you—wants you to or not, because someday “too late” will be a reality.
2023-04-2513 minSo I Was Reading...A Good Day to DiePastor Greg revisits his thoughts on Romans 6:8-11 that he shared at FBC’s Easter Sunrise Service, discussing the importance and meaning of what it means to truly die—and, conversely then, what it means to truly live—as exemplified by Jesus Himself.
2023-04-1810 minSo I Was Reading...Misplaced ShameIn this episode of “So I Was Reading,” Pastor Greg looks at Mark 8 and Jesus’s warning about where we place our allegiance: on the actual Christ, or on some false-christ of our own creation that is only loosely based on the actual Christ.
2023-04-1114 minMid Life AthleteS3E11 How to approach strength trainingIn this episode, Jason and Greg discuss the importance of strength training in maintaining health and athletic performance, and provide advice on how to create a structured strength training program. We talk about the need to have specific goals and how understanding the principles of specificity, overload, and progression are important in creating an effective program. We outline seven steps to consider, including conducting a needs analysis, selecting exercises, and determining training frequency.If you would like to access the detailed notes behind this episode then please subscribe to our paid Substack posts....
2023-04-081h 11So I Was Reading...Is "Love" Always Love?We’ve probably all heard the phrase, “Love Is Love,” but a quick glance at a dictionary shows it’s not quite that simple, and a deep dive into Greek shows it’s not that simple at all! Join Pastor Greg as he looks into the meaning of the love of 1 Corinthians 13.
2023-04-0413 minSo I Was Reading...Living on CrumbsPastor Greg reads Mark 7:27-29 and contemplates the eating habits of children, noting that maybe we share a bit more in common with the dogs under the table than we previously had realized.
2023-03-2812 minSo I Was Reading...The Danger of Denial & DisbeliefThis week Pastor Greg reads Mark 6:1-5 and discusses Jesus’s visit to His home town and observes the simple reason why He couldn’t do amazing and wonderful things while He was there.
2023-03-2112 minMid Life AthleteOur own Greg Ryan & Nick Gibbins chase another burpee world recordListeners may have heard Greg talk about his latest challenge - an attempt at the 24 hr team relay burpee world record. Instigated by Nick Gibbins a team of 3 men and 3 women will attempt to do over 12,000 burpees in a 24 hr period to raise funds for Motor Neurone Disease.

2023-02-0111 minMid Life AthleteS3E8 The respiratory & circulatory systemsJason and Greg discuss the respiratory and circulatory systems and how they work together to support the body.

The respiratory system, which includes the lungs, alveoli, and diaphragm, is responsible for breathing and facilitating the transfer of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the air and the blood.

The phosphagen system is the primary energy system used during short-term, high-intensity exercises such as sprinting or weightlifting. Glycolytic system uses lactate from the muscles and glucose from the blood and stored glycogen to provide energy to the muscles. The oxidative system is slower than the phosphagen and gl...
