2021-01-2326 minFaithfully FitThe Purpose of Faithfully FitAcross the world we have many cultural barriers to overcome in terms of the communication of ideas. Even within America we have many of those same boundaries caused by geographical, idealogical, and historical differences. Our exposure to differing ideas is often shaped by media (ideas that come across social media or ideas derived from movies and television). This almost always does not portray the true spirit of the idea at hand. I've found this true with the ideas I espouse in Faithfully Fit.

2020-08-0341 minFaithfully FitDoes the Bible say God won't give us more than we can handle?When it rains it pours. That's especially true in times like these where one issue can lead to the next. However, we often put God in the indefensible position of being the author of the bad in our lives. If that's the case, do we have the chance to experience his goodness? In this episode I give you my perspective on what troubles mean and we take a look at a group of verses that have been taken out of context that have led us to believe God gives us only what we can handle.
