The truth is that you always do what you want to do, but you will not always do what you need to do. So how do we change our need to into our want to.

In this episode, we explore three life lessons that were observed in the last three months of traveling throughout the United States.
-
Small deliberate habits make a powerful difference - Those that have habits working for them in everyday life seem to have the greatest capacity to seize new opportunities.
-
The power of relationships and the willingness to step into another persons world - Those that have strong relationships, or rather, the skills to make new meaningful relationships are often advanced further in life.
-
Being fully responsible is the core of freedom - Once one has shaken off the insecurities, childish ways and victimization they are able to own their attitude and have an internal freedom in any circumstance.

"Well that's just my personality!" This is a common mantra when someone is challenged on the way they are doing or handling a situation. We can also here this when there motivation to accomplish an assigned task is less than desirable.
In this episode, the crew (Jayson, Tommy, Caleb and Bryan), tackle the conversation about our personality and its affects on our future:
Is our identity and personality the same What is the difference between character and personality Can your personality be changed Why would God ask us to do something that does not fit our personality profile Have personality tests substituted what was meant to come from our Father.
Have you ever heard the statement, "If I only had..., then I could...!" In this episode, we continue around the topic of what to pursue in life and get to the basics. Moving beyond boredom, immediate gratification and grandiose ideas into real simple kingdom concepts that build the future we have been called into.
If you are wondering about your future, goals and where to start this episode will have something to unlock what is hindering you from moving forward.
We have been inundated in our western culture about pursuing our dreams or you can be anything you want to be, etc. The one that has made a mark in the church world has been the pursuit of purpose.
In this episode, we take discuss and explore this idea from a kingdom or God perspective. What should we pursue? What is the measurement of its success? More importantly how to end your life with fulfillment and the boldness to say I have successfully finished my course.
I believe the conversation will find you stepping beyond what we have thought to have understood about this subject.
The crew take an under the hood look at the heart of mentorship and its affect on theirs and others lives. The discussion goes into what it is and and what it is not. What is the role of the mentor and the role of a mentee? The conversation explores how to position yourself to find a mentor and how does God look at mentorship and if it is even needed. This is an important conversation for both those looking to mentor and to be mentored. We bring three generations together to explore this critical idea in this day and age.
The podcast crew introduces themselves and the reason behind the podcast. The conversation goes into the power of mentorship and how Mission: 300 has affected their lives and those around them.
The discussion comes around to seeing how Identity produces strength, which brings forth courage and is the force that influences the world around us. Take an inside look to how this has transpired in their lives and how real mentorship brings that out.
This is part two of the discussion about stories. In this episode, we take a look at the clinical research on how our beliefs are changed not by information, but by stories. We explore how stories affect us and how if we understand a truth, we can bring it into a story. Also, discussed is how Jesus used parables or stories in order to bring framework to the truths he was conveying.

Consider the time when your perspective or belief has changed. Was it information, data or was a story involved that took it beyond your brain into something more personal? In this episode, we explore what happens when we connect to a story and how change is affected. It is through stories that relationships are grounded and community is established. This and more in this discussion with Jayson, Tommy, Caleb and Bryan.

How does change take place in the systems of our world? How about on a business level? What about personally? These are questions we take on in this process. We attempt to take a look at all sides of this process by addressing a news article from CNBC -Goldman Sachs asks in biotech research report: ‘Is curing patients a sustainable business model?
As we explore we address the different view points and often are view of life is narrowed based on our role or responsibilities. As we dive deeper, we see that many want to do the right moral action, but have become so normalized to how the world functions we become entangled ourselves.
We bring it back to how to function "Moralized, Stabilized, and Normalized" effectively in a system with a mechanism to change, freeing us to be solid in our decisions without the hidden change of conformity.
In this episode, we go back to the basics of how to find and live from our true identity. This is the first of four pillars we utilize for our mentorship program. It is also the most vital element of a humans existence. The conversation goes further into the importance of our name and where we obtain it. We examine the lives of Daniel, Shadrack, Meshack and Abednego. As we ventured into Chapter 1 we see the meanings of their name and how it also reflected in their character in which they lived. We also break from the idea that you make your identity rather it is bestowed. This and more in this discussion.

In this episode, the crew kick off this discussion around a scene from the movie, "Unbroken." (https://youtu.be/QO3PfLU4rcU) The conversation explores the motives and benefits of going beyond ones expectations. How is freedom released in these moments and what force is truly against it? This brings it around to the main topic of freedom, boundaries and dominion. More specifically the defiance against the destructive force of victimization.
We also venture into the power of love and its affects on our sphere of influence. The priority of loving the individual versus being loved by the mass.

In this episode, we discuss Paul writing to the Romans in chapter 13 and every souls responsibility to submit to the government. This is a real challenging passage and their seems to be a lot of controversy especially in our worlds current environment.

In this episode, we start with what a new college student will be challenged with when leaving college. It will not be enough to have a degree as the landscape has been radically altered. What will be the key? Relationships. Who we know and the confidence we .

In this episode, we continue the discussion from the previous podcast with the emphasis on navigating chaos. Don't worry we bring clarity to the term and why it is relevant to understanding how to plan for our future. We also discuss how an identity established in truth is the antidote for instability as we progress through the rough and disorganized paths of our "New Normal." It could be that their is a great opportunity in our current dangerous situations.
In this episode, the question is posed as how to get out of a rut at work (or any arena) when motivation and purpose starts to fade away. We discuss the aspects of the boringness of discipline and the energy of chaos, considering the proper perspective of each. This leads us into the why we are engaged in the arena that appears to be a rut to begin with. Luke 12:22-34 (Seek first the Kingdom of God...), takes center stage in the conversation and what it really means in everyday life where the rubber meets the road. How can this principle break the rut and infuse life into our daily activities.

Jayson, Tommy, Caleb and Bryan tackle the reality of our information world. They take a hard look at how our identity has been more attached to what we know about with little emphasis on knowing the source of the information.
They also take on the criticalness of these two components, yet without relationally knowing a person, idea or application the knowledge of it becomes fruitless.

In this episode, we take on this question and address the cultural issue of the relativity of truth. We begin with the Rudyard Kipling poem - IF. Using this as a backdrop of what happens to an individual who is established in truth and how does that affect the world around you. We see this in Jesus interaction with pilot who originally posed this question, What is truth? Then proceeded to wash his hands of the responsibility of it.
We also discuss: personal truth, group truth and the Truth. This will begin a series around this idea as how can you discover you true identity without a foundation of truth in which it is built.

In this episode, we continue around the idea of finding courage with the emphasis around a need for hope.

We kick off 2021 with Tommy joining us as a new addition to the team. We are now able to bring almost three generations of perspective to the topic at hand.
Jayson, Tommy and Bryan relive the Christmas of 1944 in Bastogne, Belgium. On that day, surrounded by the German army five times the strength, the US General McAuliffe refused an offer of surrender with the response, "Nuts!"
We bring this into our current lives and what would happen to our life if we let courage emerge.
We go from there to explore: What is courage and its affects? How do we lose it? How do we build it back?
Join us in the discussion!
In this episode, Jayson and Bryan dive into the world of Jepthah and what Jesus saw when He read of him. A deliverer from the book of Judges that has taken a lot of criticism for an unfortunate conflict that came about due to the integrity to his word.
He was a man of valor, but born of a prostitute, kicked out of his family and inheritance. The result left him to roam the land with his band of worthless men. What we are sure of is that he was righteous and a man of integrity.
In this discussion we discover is something more powerful, that our God and Father, will not break his word or promise even to His own hurt. The picture of Jepthah also reveals the what happens to a people that ignore integrity and pursue their own interests without regard to their promises.

In this episode, Jayson and Bryan tackle the modern day pressure to conform to the loudest voices. We explore how the truths of the Bible are OK, to the powers that be, as long as they do not go against the masses. This is taking place on a grand scale in every area of our lives. Asking questions is How should we respond? What is the "Christian Way"? Shouldn't we just go with the flow?
We also show the actions and response of the characters of the Old Testament, New Testament and Jesus respond to this kind of actions.
We welcome your comments!

In this episode, Jayson and Bryan explore the idea of what is like to see for the first time, whether physically, mentally or spiritually. How it changes our reality and the interaction with truths we have not understood. Our world looks to change the truth. However, t is not the truth that changes, rather, our position towards the truth. This comes off the observations of the first blind man healed. This episode sets the stage for the upcoming episodes where we are going back into the biblical characters of old and discovering what Jesus and the Father observed in them. We may be shocked that we have assumed a wrong conclusion.

In this episode, Jayson and Bryan explore the first red pill (a play on words off the movie Matrix) offered to the first blind man ever healed. When we peel back the layers on this miraculous event, we see that what was the most liberating experience for this man was also naturally a great loss as well. Job loss, family rejection, and community excommunication also came from this eye opening experience. We see a family that was more concerned with saying the right words than speaking the truth out of fear of the community leaders.
We explore this and share stories on the transformation and cost of having your eyes opened.

In this episode, Jayson and Bryan venture into the story of the iconic boxer James J. Braddock, also known as Cinderella Man. We break down his life story from his birth in New York's infamous Hell's Kitchen, living through the Spanish Flu Pandemic, losing everything in the Great Depression, and from the bottom rising up from extreme poverty to becoming the world boxing heavyweight champion. A man of deep faith that lived out his principles and would not compromise to the easy way out.
A great example for our current day. The question is why do we not have these kind of heroes emerging today, or have we created a society that villainizes those who would dare hold true to their values in spite of all the odds?
The quote that best summarizes this episode is from Father Charles Rorick: "Maybe Sometimes people need to see someone do it so they can do it themselves."
