E865 | Wild at Heart Stories - T.J. Greaney & Kids Outdoor Zone

Over 40 percent of the boys in this country don’t have a dad at home. The result has been a dramatic increase in drug use and school drop-out—with some kids averaging up to 70 hours a week in front of a screen yet only 40 minutes outside. Countering that trend is Kids Outdoor Zone (KOZ), an outdoor ministry for boys that trains and equips men to mentor boys through outdoor adventure. In this episode, John talks with KOZ founder and Wild at Heart ally T.J. Greaney about his difficult boyhood, his deep love of nature and adventure, and the inspiring origin and growth of Kids Outdoor Zone.Show Notes: For details on how to start an outdoor ministry for boys at your church, visit KidsOutdoorZone.com.

E864 | Grounded - Part 2

It’s incredibly orienting to discover that when we say “yes” to Jesus, we are now part of a great campaign—one that’s already in motion—to help overthrow evil, restore the human heart, and fix God’s universe. This wildly beautiful invitation, however, isn’t secondary. It takes priority over our personal plans and priorities. As this series concludes, John, Blaine, and Allen reveal practices for staying grounded in the larger story, ways that God is at work in the world today, and how the unseen realm dramatically impacts our lives. Keywords: Christian, Podcast, Grounding, Spiritual Warfare_______________________________________________There is more.Got a question you want answered on the podcast?

E863 | Grounded - Part 1

We love when things go as planned, but it reveals far more about us when they don’t. The exquisite beauty of life with God is that we don’t have to figure everything out. We have an intimate ally in the smartest person in the universe. What does this look like? John, Blaine, and Allen provide a real-time example as they enter the studio unsure of the podcast topic...but sure that God will reveal next steps. This isn’t just a helpful practice. It’s the only way to stay grounded in this shaken world. Keywords: Wild at Heart, Christian, Listening Prayer, Spiritual Warfare_______________________________________________There is more.Got a question you want answered on the podcast?
