A Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsWhat are Biblical Values and Laws?I hear people say that they want our country's laws and values to be influenced by Christianity, by what the Bible says. Well, let's take a look at that. What might the Bible (and Jesus!) have to say about the bills being passed by Congress and the laws being broken by ICE?2025-07-2940 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsMuch Ado About IsraelHave you ever wondered why Christians and the United States has such a strong tie with Israel? What are we to make of that amid all that is happening in the Middle East, and especially Gaza? Let's explore a bit of this with Bob Ekblad and see how it gets tied into "end times" thinking that isn't as biblical as we might think.2025-07-0455 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsRevival in Bellingham?Is there a revival going on among young people?

What do they mean? Is it true? Does it feel true? If it is true, what does it mean?

If you are longing for more, Larry is a great guide. Let's explore.2025-05-0253 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsBe Subject to Authorities? Exploring Romans 13As we continue to explore the terrain of North American Christianity, including Christian Nationalism, one of the questions that has come up for me is what to do with Romans 13 regarding how we are to relate to governing authority, especially authority that we disagree with. How are we to understand this?2025-04-1840 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsInherent Identity with Tyson BradleyIf you and Jesus walked into a room full of people, how would he introduce you? Are we able to believe and receive the goodness of what Jesus would say? I'd like to introduce you to my new friend, Tyson Bradley, as we explore some of this identity work of the Holy Spirit. On our way to hearing what God wants to say to us about who He has made us to be in the world, we will also explore some prayerful grounding exercises that can help us be more present to God and our own selves as we...2025-04-0451 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsDealing with Our IdolatryAs we continue our exploration of Christian Nationalism, I believe what lies at the heart of it is an idolatry of nation. Yet, in the process of digging into that, we will uncover our own idolatries. Where are you feeling fear these days? Or anger? What feels threatened? It may be that there is an idol hidden in the basement of our hearts.2025-03-2140 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsPowers, Principalities and Renouncing the Idolatry of NationalismWe are doing a deep dive into the Scriptures with Bob Ekblad as we cover a lot of biblical terrain regarding what are called "powers and principalities." The path leads us to some key scriptures where Paul describes idolatry as serving the creature instead of the Creator and Jesus saying we cannot serve two masters. As we discern how we are to respond to powers and principalities, the first step for all of us must be to renounce the idolatry of nationalism. Unless we break with our brand of nationalism and are born from above, we will not see...2025-03-0751 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsSpiritual Self-Care in a Season of ChaosI am finding that my spiritual life is taking more time and intention these days. As I wrestle with what is going on in the world around me and not living from a place of constant reactivity, I hear Jesus calling me to set my mind on things above where He is seated at the right hand of God. And to not set my mind on things on the earth. How do we do this without just burying our heads in the spiritual sand? Let's explore.2025-02-2140 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsWhat IN THE WORLD is the Holy Spirit doing in Latin America!Join me with Dr. Paul Olver, the Director of Operations for Impact Latin America as he shares about what the Holy Spirit is doing in Latin America and we reflect on our recent trip to Uruguay.2025-02-1456 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsBiblical Prophets Speak Truth to PowerAs we continue to discern whether the prophetic voices promoting Christian Nationalism are speaking God's heart and God's kingdom priorities, it is important to take a look at what the prophets were doing and saying in the Bible. We don't have to look very far to see that they were not political "yes-men" but regularly challenged religious and political leadership for their idolatry and neglect of the poor. What can that tell us about what we are seeing in Christian Nationalism? Let's take a look.On a separate note, if you are interested in...2025-02-0740 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsThe Need for Discernment in the Prophetic Movement, Part 2I want to continue a conversation about something heavy on my heart concerning the need for greater discernment in the prophetic movement in the United States. My concern is that Christian Nationalism and the way it is being validated and promoted by the prophetic culture portray a twisted misrepresentation of Jesus and the kingdom of God and use the gifts of the Holy Spirit to do it. How are we to discern what is from the Holy Spirit in these confusing times?2025-01-3145 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsSigns that Make You WonderWhen the Apostle Paul talks about the Holy Spirit in 1 Corinthians 12, he distinguishes the gift of healing from the gift of miracles. In other places we read phrases that include "signs and wonders." What is Paul or Jesus talking about, where do we see those happening today and what is God doing through them? Join me with my friend, pastor Rich DeRuiter, as we talk about healing, miracles (signs that make you wonder) and why the gathering of God's people helps to bring a completeness to the works of the Holy Spirit.2025-01-1744 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsHearing and Discerning God's VoiceWith the New Year, we are revisiting some teaching from almost two years ago on the importance of discernment when we are listening for God's voice. Jesus tells us that he is the good shepherd and his sheep hear his voice, and he also warns us that there are other voices - the stranger, the robber, and the thief who comes to steal, kill, and destroy. Let's explore how to recognize God's voice amid all the clutter.2025-01-0340 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsHearing God in PrayerI am revisiting some foundational stuff for me in prayer - that hearing God's voice changes everything. Maybe your experience feels more like silence and praying to the ceiling, but I want to encourage you that there are many ways you are already hearing from God, and they all count. Let's explore together and then practice.2024-12-1340 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsWhat IN THE WORLD is the Holy Spirit doing?When I was in my 20s and 30s, if we talked about the Holy Spirit at all, it was regarding rumors of miracles that seemed to happen in Africa. Most of this podcast has been to help us become more aware of what the Holy Spirit is doing right here among us. But today we get a glimpse of what the Holy Spirit is doing in Africa as we are joined again by our friend, Andy Ekblad.

She will draw you in with her the passion of her lived relationship with Jesus and open the door to a new way of entering into intercession for others. You are in for a treat.2024-11-1551 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsKingdom Unity and the ElectionFriends, I release this podcast the day before the election, out of my regular release sequence. I bring you this sermon I preached Sunday, November 3 in Bellingham, as a word to refocus us on where our hope lies, Jesus and His Kingdom. We may be divided at the ballot box but let us be united in a vision of Jesus crucified and risen and in His Kingdom. Jesus is our King. This is where our hope lies.2024-11-0440 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsThe Need for Discernment in the Prophetic MovementWe are back with Bob Ekblad to discuss the critical need for discernment as we listen for what God is saying, and especially as we listen to voices in the North American prophetic culture who claim to be speaking for God. As we listen for God and to others, how do we discern what we are hearing from the echo chamber and idolatry our own cultural and political bubbles?2024-11-0157 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsHearing and Following the Holy SpiritAs a teenager, Mitchell Senti wrestled through the disconnect of what he was reading in the Bible about the Holy Spirit speaking and the fact that his church wasn't saying anything like this.

We start with the foundation of being a beloved daughter, a beloved son.

It was the centerpiece of Jesus' teaching and he tells us that we "must be born again if we are to see the Kingdom of God." If the Kingdom is what we are "saved" and born again for, what is Jesus talking about? Has our model of church in North America somehow missed it?

Why? Because the Holy Spirit was poured out on the Church for the Church, not simply on individuals. As long as our approach is just "me and Jesus" we will see limited fruit. So, what are some ways we can begin to grow together as we seek the ministry of the Holy Spirit? Listen and we will see.I will be taking a short break on content development in July and August (for the first time since...2024-06-2138 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsInner Healing PrayerToday I talk with my friend, Kathy Crosby, about her journey with the Holy Spirit in receiving and co-operating in inner healing prayer. Physical healing is much of what we see in the scriptures, though I would argue that inner healing is happening as well. They differ from one another in that physical healing has to do with our bodies while inner healing has to do with soul and spirit hurts that have kept us from flourishing in the ways God intends.

So says my guest, Alison Millikan, as she shares her journey through some of her obstacles to the Holy Spirit - not wanting to be duped or emotionally manipulated, and her fear of being out of control. 2024-05-1048 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsWhen We Pray and Healing Doesn't HappenAs we begin to believe for more, there can be a greater experience of disappointment when the more doesn't happen in the way we want or desperately need.  We continue our conversation with Andy Ekblad as he talks about the already and not yet of the Kingdom as he saw miracles and answered prayer all around him but not in his daughter. 2024-04-2649 minFire & RiceFire & Rice#028 - Warfare & Deliverance w/Mike NeelleyWarning: this episode may be uncomfortable to hear for those that don't believe in the spiritual realm.

Of all the things Jesus cries out from the cross, the most anguished may be the cry of dereliction, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" We have been told that in this moment of terrible suffering, the Father turned his face away from the Son as the wrath of heaven is poured out on sin. But is it true? Is that what is happening?2024-03-2940 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsHelp, Hope, and Healing in the Holy SpiritMeet my friend, Rebekah Cancelosi, as she shares her journey with the Holy Spirit through knowing the Holy Spirit as Helper in her 20s, as Hope in her 30s, and as Healer in her 40s.

Please delete it and try this one one.2024-03-1141 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsAuthority to Calm the StormWhen we are in crisis, we often cry out, "Jesus, don't you care that we are perishing?!" And Jesus responds with what can feel like a harsh question: "WHERE is your faith?" What kind of faith is Jesus expecting of us? What if he wants us to walk in his authority to calm the storm?2024-03-0943 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsLoving Enemies and Christian NationalismJesus call to love our enemies cuts across partisan lines and there is much that can be said about the failure to love on all sides. However, I feel the need to address a form of religious extremism happening in the church in America because it promotes a hatred of enemies and threat of violence as though these are compatible with being a follower of Jesus. We rarely win arguments by pointing out what is wrong with the other, but maybe we can point to Jesus. 2024-02-2340 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsExploring the Prophetic with Kitsy Gregory"The prophetic is a gift. It's not an award or a reward, or something you can earn." So says my friend, Kitsy Gregory.

There are few verses in the gospels that spell out the challenge of what following King Jesus means more than when he tells us to "love our enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you..." As we seek to be Kingdom people, today we are going to explore what it might look like to "bless those who curse you."...2024-01-2640 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsSpiritual Warfare - The Battle WithoutWhether we are aware of it or not, we live in a war zone. While armed conflicts between various nations are all around us, the reality is that there are only two kingdoms - the kingdom of our Lord Jesus and the kingdom of darkness - and they are at war. Jesus has won the ultimate victory but the battle continues. When we become aware of that battle, we are becoming aware of what is called "spiritual warfare." Today James Kearny and I will explore some of the ground level tactics of the enemy and how we can walk...2024-01-121h 08A Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsFoundations of Spiritual AuthorityIn this episode I want to step back into our conversations about Holy Spirit empowerment and look at how it intersects with the humanity of Jesus and the concept of spiritual authority.

It doesn’t return to him empty. But there is waiting. In the story of Zechariah and Elizabeth we see how their long awaited prayer was finally answered but it was part of a bigger story, and God was just getting started. Maybe the prayer or prophetic word you are waiting on is part of a bigger story?2023-12-1540 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsHoly Spirit and AdventWe are in the season of Advent and while it is meaningful to us in many ways, we often treat the Holy Spirit supernatural activity more like a children's book than actual events. There is no section of the Bible given to more Holy Spirit activity than the conception and birth of Jesus. Let's explore and discover that the Bible isn't just a story of what God did then, it is what God is doing now!2023-12-0140 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsGod Speaks Through DreamsMeet my friend, Ruby Tanaka. Some may say that she's a dreamer; but she's not the only one. In fact, dreams and visions are mentioned as a way that God communicates over 200 times in the Bible. And part of the prophetic promise from Joel 2 is that when God's Spirit is poured out on everyone, they will dream dreams! The question then becomes, how do we pay attention and understand and interpret what God is trying to tell us? Let's explore together.2023-11-1754 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsGod's Pursuit of Us with Lorinda ConleyLorinda's journey with God is one that highlights God's pursuit of us as described in Psalm 139: "Where shall I go from Your Spirit? If I make my bed in Sheol, You are there! If I take the wings of the morning and dwell in the uttermost parts of the seas, even there your hand shall lead me and your right hand shall hold me." While she shares some of the big moves of God in her life, it is the smaller ones over a long period of time that show how God has held her.2023-11-0347 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsSelf-Deliverance with Bob EkbladWe dive back into the topic of deliverance from a new angle. How cano we engage with our own places where we are stuck?

Usually someone is trying to give some sense of meaning to a hard situation, at other times there is a sense of resignation or fatalism. And while the thought that everything happens for a reason may feel like it offers some solid ground in the midst of chaos, if we believe in God it ends up saying that God is the reason for EVERYTHING that happens. There is theology that says just that, but is it true. Let's explore.2023-10-0643 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsContending in Prayer with Wendy Bents PattersonAs we are learning to partner with and cooperate with the Holy Spirit, there are times when we can get excited about what God is doing, while at other times prayer takes more effort. The answers we are asking for don't come immediately (or at all). What does it mean or look like to persevere or contend in prayer? Meet my friend Wendy, who is a prayer warrior, and if there is anyone I want to talk to about this topic, she is the one.2023-09-2251 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsA Spectacle of GraceTrigger warning: this episode contains content regarding drug addiction and attempted suicide. Jonathan Oliviera shares his story of redemption from being a young, fatherless, addict who tried to end his life to an unlooked-for encounter where Jesus claimed him as his own and set him on a new trajectory. 2023-09-0848 minFire & RiceFire & Rice#016 - Wrecked by Worship w/Euntae Yi, Justine Lin & Mike NeelleyFor the tired & weary: It's time to pause, rest, receive, release, renew, and celebrate.

Beginning with honest prayers and moving toward praying for others, the Holy Spirit has been empowering  Charlie in beautiful ways. 2023-08-2546 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsEveryday with the Holy Spirit, with Sara ShihIf the conversations with about the Holy Spirit have felt like riding the rapids, let's wade into the deep, quiet waters where the Spirit hovers over the chaos of everyday life and the larger issues. Sara Shih operates out of a place of devotion that flows out of an experience of God's faithfulness in spite of her disobedience, a heart posture of regular dependence, out of which she participates with God's presence in the world, as she raises four girls and works with a global non-profit.2023-08-1144 minA Church Without WallsA Church Without WallsDisappointment with GodAs soon as we start believing and expecting the Holy Spirit to do miraculous stuff, we run into all sorts of places where our expectations aren't met.
