In this episode, Mark Gillmore reports from Uganda, where the gospel is breaking through long-standing religious strongholds and transforming lives. Through the testimonies of Pastor Michael and Pastor John, we see how God is raising up faithful men, establishing churches, and multiplying the truth across communities. Uganda is not just another mission field—it is a harvest field that is ready right now. Topics Discussed Pastor Michael’s journey from religious compromise to biblical conviction The cost of standing for truth, including rejection and excommunication The early struggles of preaching the gospel in resistant religious environments The transformation of Uganda’s spiritual landscape over the past 30 years Pastor John’s vision for training men to plant churches and reach rural communities The multiplication model of ministry based on 2 Timothy 2:2 The role of radio ministry in reaching people trapped in false religion The importance of training local leaders in their own language and context The need to prioritize doctrinal clarity over mere religious activity The urgency of laborers entering a harvest that is already ripe Key Takeaways The harvest in Uganda is not future, it is present. God is already at work drawing people to Himself. Obedience to truth may come at a cost, but it is the pathway to real fruit. Gospel advance depends on training faithful men who will teach others also. Indigenous leadership is essential for lasting, multiplying ministry. Religious activity without truth leaves people lost. Clear gospel preaching is still needed. God uses simple, faithful efforts to break through even deeply rooted strongholds. There is a real and urgent opportunity to be part of what God is doing in Uganda today. Do you have a story of gospel advance or a burden for a specific people group? We’d love to hear it.

In this transparent and deeply personal episode, Bobby shares a recent failure in his own life and how God met him in Psalm 51. Through David’s repentance, he unpacks the powerful truth that our sin does not permanently stain us when it is brought under the cleansing power of Christ. This episode calls listeners to stop covering sin, to embrace God’s compassion, and to experience full restoration—not just forgiveness, but renewed joy, spirit, and usefulness. Topics Discussed Honest confession and leadership transparency The difference between justice-based mercy and covenant compassion The meaning of “wash me” and “whiter than snow” Why sin is not a permanent stain for the believer The significance of hyssop and the Passover connection The role of the blood of Christ in cleansing and restoration Renewing a right spirit vs. living in discouragement or bitterness Restoration of joy and usefulness after failure The danger of covering sin and living with a “twisted” spirit Responding to conviction like David vs. resisting like Saul Key Takeaways You are not permanently stained by your sin—God can make you “whiter than snow.” True repentance appeals to God’s love and relationship, not your worthiness. Cleansing is not just positional—it restores your joy, spirit, and usefulness. Feeling dirty after confession is a faith issue, not a forgiveness issue. A wrong spirit after sin is part of the problem God wants to fix. Covering sin compounds damage; confession opens the door to restoration. God restores you so you can be fruitful again, not just forgiven. If you’ve been encouraged by this podcast, please take the time to give us a five-star rating and write a brief review.

In this Faith Talks episode, Janna and Judson Shoultz explore what it means to be a “coffee bean” in a world full of pressure. Using a simple but powerful illustration, they challenge believers not to be shaped by their circumstances, but to transform them through the life of Christ within. Through biblical examples like Joseph and Joshua, this episode shows that the very pressures you face are the opportunities God uses to make you a difference-maker. Topics Discussed The coffee bean illustration and what it represents How pressure reveals your true spiritual condition Three responses to trials: weakening, hardening, or transforming Joseph’s example of thriving in unjust circumstances Joshua and Caleb standing firm when others gave in Trusting God’s placement in difficult environments Depending on Christ to influence others Key Takeaways You are either shaped by your environment or used by God to shape it Pressure is God’s tool to reveal and refine your faith Your current situation is not a setback but a divine assignment True influence comes from Christ working through you Faith chooses to trust and act, even when it’s uncomfortable You don’t need a different situation to make a difference—you need dependence on God Faith Talks is a monthly program on the Thee Generation Podcast designed to help young ladies grow in faith and live it out daily.

In this episode, Ryan Swanson revisits Matthew 19 and the often-overlooked teaching of Jesus on the eunuch, bringing clarity to questions raised from the previous discussion on “Another Alternative.” Addressing confusion surrounding same-sex attraction and the absence of natural desires, he presents what he calls the “Eunuch Principle.” Rather than pushing listeners toward premature conclusions about lifelong singleness, the episode emphasizes a simple but powerful truth: singleness, in any season, is a gift meant to be stewarded for wholehearted devotion to Christ. Topics Discussed Clarifying Jesus’ teaching on eunuchs in Matthew 19 The difference between absence of desire and same-sex attraction Missteps in church culture regarding marriage expectations The concept of being “born” without typical relational desires The danger of overanalyzing one’s calling The “Eunuch Principle” explained Singleness as a gift, not a handicap Practical application for teens and young adults Trusting God’s timing in relationships and life direction Key Takeaways Not everyone is called to marriage, and that reality is acknowledged by Jesus Himself Some confusion around identity stems from lack of desire, not perverted desire The church has sometimes wrongly treated marriage as the only “successful” outcome Singleness is not a waiting room, it is a strategic opportunity You don’t need to figure out your entire life calling right now If you are single today, that is your assignment today God leads those who are already moving in obedience A life fully devoted to Christ is never wasted, regardless of future outcomes Victory over deceptive thoughts starts early, before consideration turns into acceptance.

In this episode, Dr. Jim walks through the powerful biblical principle of sowing and reaping from Galatians 6. He challenges listeners to recognize that every choice—whether spiritual or fleshly—plants a seed that will eventually produce a harvest. With both warning and encouragement, this episode calls young people to live with eternity in view by sowing to the Spirit and responding rightly when God speaks to their hearts. Topics Discussed The unchanging law of sowing and reaping Sowing to the flesh vs. sowing to the Spirit Why consequences are inevitable and often greater than expected The importance of responding to conviction from God’s Word Being “good ground” for spiritual truth How God uses believers to sow seed into the lives of others Living today with eternal impact in mind Key Takeaways Every action plants a seed, and every seed produces a harvest—no exceptions You can choose your sin, but you cannot choose your consequences Sowing to the Spirit happens through dependence on God’s Word and the Holy Spirit Receiving and responding to truth is just as important as sharing it God uses ordinary conversations and moments to produce eternal fruit The harvest may take time, but it is always certain A life surrendered to God becomes both good soil and a faithful sower If you’ve been encouraged by this podcast, please take the time to give us a five-star rating and write a brief review.

What would it look like if every village had a gospel witness? In this episode of the GoMission podcast, Mark Gillmore travels to northwest Ghana to speak with Pastor Charles and his son Abednego about a bold vision: a church in every village. After more than twenty-five years of ministry, Pastor Charles is challenging his church to make Christ’s final command their first concern by training leaders and sending workers into nearby communities. The conversation reveals how God has been preparing this moment for years. Through a network of schools established in rural villages, young people have learned to read, study Scripture, and develop leadership skills. Now many of those same individuals are stepping forward to help start churches in places where the gospel has not yet taken root. As the church prays, gives, and sends laborers, the vision is beginning to move from idea to reality. When believers are equipped and entrusted with responsibility, the gospel can spread from village to village across an entire region. Topics Discussed The vision of a church in every village Pastor Charles’ 25+ years of ministry in northern Ghana Mobilizing believers through faith-promise giving for missions Sending trained leaders to start new fellowships in nearby villages How education is preparing future gospel leaders Abednego’s work training teachers across dozens of rural schools Leadership multiplication and training others to lead The importance of giving young believers meaningful ministry opportunities Simple tools like testimonies, gospel presentations, and discovery Bible studies Trusting God to raise up laborers for the harvest Key Takeaways The Great Commission advances when churches intentionally train and send workers. Multiplying leaders is essential for reaching entire regions with the gospel. Education can play a strategic role in preparing communities to engage the Word of God. Young believers grow when they are trusted with real responsibility in ministry. With faith, vision, and multiplication, a church in every village becomes a mission worth pursuing.

In this episode, Bobby Bosler reflects on Psalm 46:1 and the powerful truth that God is “a very present help in trouble.” Drawing from personal Bible study and a simple illustration from everyday life, he explains how easy it is to think of God as distant when we face pressure, weakness, or distress. Yet Scripture reveals that God is not merely nearby—He is right within reach, ready to be our refuge, our strength, and the help we need in every situation. Topics Discussed Psalm 46:1 and the three descriptions of God: refuge, strength, and help What it means for God to be a refuge or safe place The different dimensions of strength God provides: physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual The meaning of “help in trouble” and the kinds of distress people experience The significance of the phrase “very present help” in the Hebrew text How believers can mistakenly view God as distant in times of difficulty A practical illustration showing the difference between something being nearby and being within reach Learning to depend on God right where you are Key Takeaways God is a safe place where believers can find security and protection. The Lord provides strength for every area of life, including mental and emotional strain. In every distress or difficulty, the ultimate need is not a new solution but God Himself. Psalm 46 teaches that God is not merely close to us—He is very present, accessible, and ready to help. Believers can depend on God immediately, because He is always right within reach.

In this episode of Satisfied, the discussion continues around the question, “Was I born this way?” Rather than defaulting to the common cultural binary of heterosexual or homosexual identity, this episode explores a biblical category many have overlooked: those whom Jesus described as “born eunuchs” in Matthew 19:12. The conversation challenges assumptions about sexual desire, identity, and calling, and presents a compelling case that some individuals may be uniquely designed by God for a life of devoted, undistracted service to the King. Topics Discussed Recap of Romans 1 and the role of vain imaginations in shaping identity The difference between corruption and perversion Propensity toward sin vs. absence of sexual desire Matthew 19:12 and the three types of eunuchs Jesus describes The historical role and significance of eunuchs in ancient kingdoms The concept of intentional singleness and grace for chastity Cultural pressure equating victory with heterosexual marriage The vulnerability of those who lack sexual desire False identity formation through misplaced belonging The power of being understood in moments of isolation Reframing “born this way” through the lens of calling and purpose Viewing singleness not as deficiency, but as strategic kingdom design Key Takeaways Not every lack of heterosexual desire equals homosexual orientation. Jesus explicitly acknowledges individuals born without sexual desire. The absence of sexual desire is not a defect but may be a divine design. The church must stop presenting heterosexual marriage as the only vision of victory. Those uniquely designed for singleness may be called to powerful, focused kingdom service. Identity confusion often grows in environments where vulnerability meets misunderstanding. God does not make mistakes in design; He assigns purpose with intention. A life of undistracted devotion is not second-tier Christianity, but a high calling. Victory over deceptive thoughts starts early, before consideration turns into acceptance.

Confusion often sets in when life takes an unexpected turn—when hurt, disappointment, opposition, or spiritual attack clouds our perspective. From Psalm 71, this episode explains that the answer is not figuring everything out but choosing to trust the Lord. Focusing on confusion only deepens it, but fixing our eyes on Christ steadies the heart because God remains sovereign over every secondary cause. True deliverance comes not through self-effort but “in thy righteousness,” as Christ’s enablement is expressed through dependent obedience and moment-by-moment reliance on Him. Topics DiscussedPsalm 71 and the problem of spiritual confusionHow focusing on hurt, frustration, or disappointment multiplies itTrust as the biblical cure for confusionGod’s sovereignty over secondary causes and difficult circumstancesDeliverance “in thy righteousness”Dependent obedience and Christ’s supernatural enablementPassive deliverance from sin’s powerPeter walking on the water as an illustration of misplaced focusLiving by continual divine interventionKey TakeawaysWhat you focus on will shape your spiritual experience.Trust displaces confusion because it rests in God’s character, not circumstances.God is at work even when events seem contradictory or painful.Self-dependent righteousness cannot deliver; Christ’s righteousness can.The Christian life is lived through total surrender and total dependence.

This GoMission episode explores what happens when God shares His heart for a people and invites someone to join Him in His work. Erik recounts how God burdened him for France through prayer, compassion, and tears, long before any plans were made or steps were taken. The conversation highlights God’s active work in a spiritually dark nation and shows how shared compassion often becomes the pathway to disciple-making and lasting fruit.

In this episode, Bobby Bosler warns young people about a subtle but deadly danger to a fruitful Christian life. Drawing from Jesus’ parable of the sower in Luke 8, he explains how believers can genuinely hear God’s Word, step forward in obedience, and yet still fail to bring fruit to maturity. The problem is not lack of desire, but the slow choking effect of everyday pressures, money, and pleasure-driven living. Topics DiscussedThe parable of the sower and its application to believersWhat it means to “go forth” without bearing lasting fruitHow the cares of life quietly suffocate God’s callingRiches, debt, and financial pressure as spiritual choke pointsPleasure and comfort as false motivators, even in ministryLearning to cast care on the Lord instead of carrying it aloneWhy fruitfulness requires endurance, not excitementKey TakeawaysObedience can be sincere and still become unfruitful if unchecked pressures dominateCares are unavoidable, but carrying them instead of casting them is deadlyMoney can choke God’s work whether it is pursued or poorly managedPleasure is a terrible compass for life decisions, even spiritual onesGod’s calling flourishes in surrender and dependence, not comfort If you’ve been encouraged by this podcast, please take the time to give us a five-star rating and write a brief review.

In this Faith Talks episode, Anna Faith is joined by her husband Jonathan “Boogie” Fuller to explore how faith grows not only by looking ahead, but by intentionally looking back. Drawing from Scripture and personal experience, they explain how remembering God’s past faithfulness strengthens trust in Him for the present and future. The conversation emphasizes the danger of spiritual forgetfulness and the life-giving practice of rehearsing what God has already done. Topics DiscussedThe theme verse of the episode: 1 Samuel 12:24 and the call to consider God’s worksThe biblical danger of forgetting God’s faithfulness, illustrated through Israel’s historyHow remembering past deliverance fuels present trust and future obediencePersonal examples of choosing faith over fear in major life transitionsJournaling as a practical, accessible tool for remembering God’s workSimple, realistic ways to build a habit of reflection and remembranceHow recorded testimonies can encourage both future you and future generationsKey TakeawaysForgetfulness is one of the greatest threats to a healthy Christian lifeRemembering what God has done in the past builds confidence to trust Him nowFaith is strengthened by intentionally rehearsing God’s works, not just experiencing themJournaling does not need to be complicated to be spiritually effectiveSmall, consistent habits of reflection can have long-term spiritual impactGod’s faithfulness in past seasons becomes fuel for faith in uncertain onesFaith Talks is a monthly program on the Thee Generation Podcast designed to help young ladies grow in faith and live it out daily.

In this episode, Ryan and Stephanie Swanson address one of the most common and emotionally charged questions surrounding homosexuality: “Was I born this way?” Drawing from Scripture, personal counseling experience, and an anonymous testimony, they explain why this question often becomes a stumbling block rather than a starting point for truth. The episode emphasizes the role of thought life, cultural influence, and “vain imaginations” in shaping identity, while pointing listeners back to God’s created order and the freedom found in aligning our thinking with His truth. Topics DiscussedWhy the “born this way” question often derails meaningful gospel conversationsThe influence of environment, culture, and suggestion on identity formationAn anonymous testimony illustrating how wrong thinking can take root at pivotal momentsSocial media, affirmation culture, and the normalization of identity confusionBiblical analysis of vain imaginations from 2 Corinthians 10 and Romans 1The danger of “considering” thoughts that contradict God’s revealed truthPractical counsel for rejecting intrusive or accusatory thoughtsGod’s design for men and women and the simplicity of His created orderKey TakeawaysYou are not obligated to consider thoughts that contradict what God has already made clearIdentity confusion often begins with unchecked imagination rather than conscious rebellionCultural affirmation does not equal moral truthScripture calls believers to actively cast down thoughts that oppose the knowledge of GodFreedom begins by agreeing with God, not endlessly analyzing feelingsVictory over deceptive thoughts starts early, before consideration turns into acceptanceReady to download the Cord App?

This episode addresses a tension many believers feel but rarely understand: why truth, rules, and even Scripture can feel lifeless or oppressive. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 3, Dr. Jim explains that the issue is not the Word of God, but the absence of dependence on the Spirit of God. True Christianity is not self-powered obedience but Spirit-empowered life. Topics DiscussedThe meaning of “the letter killeth, but the Spirit giveth life”Why truth without the Spirit produces frustration rather than transformationHow rules and standards provoke rebellion when divorced from graceThe difference between self-effort Christianity and Spirit-enabled obedienceWhy the solution is not rejecting the Word, but relying on the SpiritKey TakeawaysThe Bible is never the problem; dependence on self is.Obedience without the Spirit leads to defeat, not freedom.The Spirit gives life to truth, enabling joyful, willing obedience.Christianity only works when Christ Himself is the source of power.Real freedom comes through surrender and faith, not self-discipline alone.

In this Faith Talks episode, Janna and Judson "Faith" reflect on what it means to begin a new year marked not merely by resolutions, but by genuine steps of faith. Drawing primarily from Colossians, they explain how biblical faith is rooted in knowing who God is, trusting His promises, and allowing His Word to shape daily decisions. Rather than chasing comfort or vague spiritual goals, listeners are encouraged to let Scripture dwell richly in their hearts so faith can actively walk forward in real life. Topics DiscussedWhy Colossians begins with truth before commands and how that shapes obedienceFaith as a walk grounded in God’s character, not feelings or circumstancesLetting the peace of God rule, even in uncertainty, trials, or pressureThe role of Scripture in overcoming temptation and spiritual battlesUnderstanding identity in Christ and resisting lies with biblical truthDiscerning God’s will through knowing His heart in His WordClosed doors, God’s timing, and trusting Him for miraculous openingsPractical ideas like claiming verses, “I am in Christ” statements, and intentional prayer for faith stepsKey TakeawaysFaith for the new year is not primarily about goals but about obedient steps rooted in truth.Knowing who God is precedes trusting what God asks you to do.Scripture is essential fuel for peace, victory over temptation, and clarity in God’s will.Believers are already complete in Christ and are called to live out that reality by faith.A meaningful spiritual resolution is to say yes to God’s Word and walk accordingly, whatever the year may bring.Faith Talks is a monthly program on the Thee Generation Podcast designed to help young ladies grow in faith and live it out daily.
