Description

"The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." — Psalm 34:18 Broken & Believing is a sanctuary for the ones still standing, still trying, still trusting—sometimes with trembling hands. Hosted by Kenn, a blues‑soaked pastor, storyteller, and lifelong student of grace, this podcast sits at the intersection of faith, struggle, and the quiet courage it takes to keep going. Every episode is a conversation with the real. Not the polished. Not the perfect. The real. Here, we talk about the parts of life we don't always bring to church: the disappointments we didn't see coming, the healing that takes longer than we hoped, the prayers we whisper in the dark, and the small victories that remind us God is still at work. Through stories, scripture, humor, and grown‑folk honesty, Kenn offers a voice that feels like a porch light—steady, warm, and welcoming. If you're carrying something heavy… If you're rebuilding your faith… If you're learning to trust again… If you're trying to make sense of your own becoming… This is your space. Broken & Believing isn't about having all the answers. It's about walking together toward hope, one honest conversation at a time.

Me, Myself and I AM. - 96

2026/10/17

David says in Psalm 31:7: "You have seen my affliction; You have known the troubles of my soul." "This message is about me, myself, and I AM. Me — the man people think they know. Myself — the battles nobody sees. And I AM — the God who steps into both." Because sometimes a man sits in a quiet room and says, "Feels like I did this before."

Led Through the Storm, Episode 95

2026/10/10

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding." — Proverbs 3:5 "Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path." — Psalm 119:105 "I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go." — Psalm 32:8 "For I am the Lord, I do not change." — Malachi 3:6 "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble." — Psalm 46:1 kennspodcast.com

Set Apart — Alone on Purpose A Word for the One God Pulls Aside So He Can Pull You Up (94)

2026/10/04

When God sets you apart, He is not isolating you — He is initiating you. Scripture shows that God does His deepest work in people when He gets them alone on purpose.

In Due Time: Holding On When the Road Gets Rough. (93)

2026/09/27

Takeaway: God does not rush His work, and He never abandons His people. The same hand that allows a season of struggle is the hand that lifts you in due time. • 1 Peter 5:6 — "Humble yourselves… that He may exalt you in due time." • Galatians 6:9 — "In due time we will reap, if we do not give up."

No Other Gods: The Battle for the Heart (92)

2026/09/20

In the Bible, "other gods" refers to anything—spiritual, cultural, or man‑made—that people treat as divine, trust as ultimate, or obey as if it has the authority of God. Every generation thinks idolatry is ancient history—stone statues, carved poles, temples in far‑off lands. But the Bible is wiser than we are. It knows the human heart never stops creating gods. Not with chisels and hammers, but with desires, fears, and misplaced trust. When God says, "You shall have no other gods before Me" (Exodus 20:3), He isn't just talking about Baal, Molech, or Asherah. He's talking about the subtle rivals that creep into our lives today. This sermon explores what the Bible means by other gods—and how God calls us back to Himself.

God is Watching - Episode 91

2026/09/12

The God who sees, slows, redirects, and teaches: • Genesis 16:13 — El Roi, the God who sees • Deuteronomy 8:2 — God leads the long way to teach • Psalm 23 — He slows you to restore you • Proverbs 16:9 — God directs your steps • Psalm 37:23 — Ordered steps, not rushed steps

Staying Positive in a Negative World — By the Power of God's Grace (90)

2026/09/06

The World Is Loud, but Grace Is Stronger Negativity has a way of filling the air like static. It's on the news, in conversations, in the quiet corners of our own minds. But the believer's hope is not built on the world's volume — it's built on God's character. Staying positive is not pretending everything is fine. It's remembering Who holds you when everything is shaking. Grace is not just a doctrine. Grace is oxygen for the soul. "My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness." — 2 Corinthians 12:9

When Sunday Isn't Enough: Becoming the Christian Your Children Actually Know. (89)

2026/08/30

The heart of this message is simple but sharp: the Christ you display publicly must match the Christ you embody privately. Jesus warned that some will say, "But didn't I heal in Your name?" and He will answer, "Away from Me… I never knew you." The danger isn't in failing publicly — it's in performing publicly while failing privately. Matthew 7:22–23

The God Who Moves in Cycles (88)

2026/08/22

Family, if you live long enough, you learn something: Life does not move in a straight line. It moves in cycles — emotional cycles, spiritual cycles, generational cycles, historical cycles. Solomon looked at the world and said: "Generations come and generations go… the sun rises and the sun sets… the wind blows… the streams flow… what has been will be again." (Ecclesiastes 1:4‑9) He wasn't being cynical. He was being honest. He was telling us that life repeats itself — and if we don't understand the cycles, we will misinterpret the seasons. Some of you are in a season right now that feels unfamiliar, but it's not. It's part of the rhythm of being human. And God, in His wisdom, teaches us how to live inside the cycle without losing hope.

Worshipping God The Way You Are Wired - 87

2026/08/16

Worshipping God the Way You Are Wired Scripture Focus: 1 Chronicles 16:4–7, Psalm 73 Introducing Asaph We often think worship only happens when we sing on Sunday mornings. But true worship is much larger than a musical style or a church service. It is a lifestyle of honoring God using exactly how He built you. In the Old Testament, King David established a massive worship operation for the Ark of the Covenant. He did not just hire random volunteers. He appointed a man named Asaph as the chief worship leader. Asaph was not just a singer; he was a leader, a writer, and a visionary. Like Asaph, we can worship God in everything we do by using the unique ways He has wired us and the opportunities He has given us to honor Him and make Him known.

"More Than You Can Handle" — The Truth Behind the Misquote - episode 86

2026/08/09

The phrase "God won't put more on you than you can handle" is not Scripture. It's a comforting cliché, but it's not a biblical promise. The Bible teaches something far more honest and far more hopeful: God meets you in the moments that exceed your strength. Most people are misquoting - 1 Corinthians 10:13 — but that verse is about temptation, not suffering. God provides a way of escape when you're tempted.

Ministering in Your Circle (85)

2026/08/01

"Your buddy needs your prayers. Your buddy needs your presence. Your buddy needs your faith. And God has placed you in their circle so His love can reach them through you." ~kenn blanchard

How Often Do You Thank God? (84)

2026/07/25

A message about gratitude, witness, and the courage to live your faith in the open. "Gratitude Has a Rhythm" Some people thank God like it's a reaction. Some thank Him like it's a routine. But the believer is called to thank Him like it's a lifestyle. Thanksgiving is not what you do after God blesses you — it's how you live because He already has.

Through The Valley (83)

2026/07/19

The power of Psalm 23:4 is not in the valley, not in the shadow, not in the fear — it is in the through. You are not stuck. You are not abandoned. You are not finished. You are walking through with a God who refuses to leave your side.
