As I wrap up this season, I want to neatly summarize what this season was about. Whether it was walking through the four Horseman of the apocalypse, interviews, question and answers, the whole point was to highlight how true overcoming is not tied to mere personal effort or any treasure of this world, but arises from deep, heartfelt worship, rooted in the confidence of Jesus' reign and rule. This worship brings strength, courage, and gratitude, that can transform our responses to adversity, infusing our hearts with gratitude and confidence.

My prayer has been and will continue to be that you are reminded that God has called you, specifically you, within the grand narrative of God's story to walk in the confidence that Jesus has come and will come again. And when you fully surrender to His rule and reign in your life, you have the power to overcome life's challenges.

It's possible to have everything this world has to offer and be starving — maybe not physically, but spiritually. In this episode of The Overcomers, I want to help you gain a deeper understanding of the profound symbolism of the black horse from Revelation 6 and its connection to spiritual famine.

Gary and Sandi Stevenson's marriage was built on shaky grounds from the start, marred by infidelity and addiction, which led to a perfect facade hiding internal turmoil. Through their candid sharing, we explore how their relationship almost disintegrated under the weight of shame and sin — even while attending and being involved in their local church. It was only through the acts of confession, repentance and walking in the light with community that they were able to combat the lies of the Black Rider. Their testimony is a moving example of how bringing darkness into the light can lead to profound healing and a restored, abundant life through Jesus.

This episode is a slight departure from my usual episode, but I had the profound opportunity to sit with Max Lucado, a man I have admired for many years, to discuss the layers of growth and grace that have marked his journey from a young man battling alcohol to the seasoned pastor he is today. In our candid conversation, you will get to see the heart of a spiritual leader who has walked through the fire of personal trials and emerged with an faith in Jesus worthy of imitation. Max's vulnerability in sharing his story reminds us that even those in church leadership need the grace of Jesus.

Stripping away the veneer often associated with pastoral life, Max and I discuss the hurdles of vulnerability, balancing ministry and family, and the relentless pull for approval. Our conversation highlights the power of community in the healing process and the profound freedom that comes from being transparent about one's struggles. We confront the temptation of seeking validation from others, reminding ourselves that our worth is not tethered to our imperfections but is instead a reflection of divine grace.

My prayer is that through this series you will discover and be reminded of the hope and courage available to overcome life's challenges through the finished work of Christ.

I've personally felt the heavy hand of illness and seen its shadow loom over those I care for. In this episode, we will examine what the Pale Horse represents and how we are to combat it. We will also take a look at what Revelation has to say about how illness and sickness affects the saints today. This conversation isn't just theological—it's personal. I share some of my own journey through sickness, and how I had to wrestle with the diverse Christian beliefs regarding faith and healing. 

If you find yourself in the midst of illness, or you’re walking with a loved one through a season of intense suffering, I hope this episode gives you hope and strengthens your spine for singing God’s praises into the storm and gives you a biblically sound framework for standing firm on the promises of God.

My prayer is that through this series you will discover and be reminded of the hope and courage available to overcome life's challenges through the finished work of Christ.

In this episode, I want to orient our thinking around how we're going to experience the Black Horse and its Rider. Because if we're going to overcome the Black Horse, then we need to understand how the rider and the horse affect us and those around us.

This conversation isn't meant to be an intellectual exercise; it's a realistic look at the black rider's impact on our faith and walk with Christ.This episode is an invitation to understand the deeper spiritual dynamics at play and to rekindle a faith that seeks sustenance in the true bread of life.

My prayer is that through this series you will discover and be reminded of the hope and courage available to overcome life's challenges through the finished work of Christ.

Could the book of Revelation be more comforting than confounding, more hopeful than horrifying? On this episode, I’m tackling some of the most common questions asked about the book of Revelation. From overcoming anxiety around the book, to the rapture, to the end times — I walk through what the book says and doesn’t say. I hope to dispel some of the mystery and offer a hopeful vision for the believer.

This is not just about end times; it's a heartening portrayal of the eternal fulfillment that believers can look forward to; a future that is far more about promise than apocalyptic dread.

My prayer is that through this series you will discover and be reminded of the hope and courage available to overcome life's challenges through the finished work of Christ.

We've been walking through the four horsemen of the apocalypse, and if you'll remember, the first horse is a white horse and its rider has a white robe and a crown. It looks like Jesus, but it's not Jesus. And so I said in Episode 1 that this rider is like an antichrist. It comes presenting itself as a gospel but it's no gospel at all. And one of the ways this plays itself out is outside the church is false gospels — this will save you or this will make your life complete, But inside the church it looks like heresy. It takes some aspect of what's true about God and it twists it.

My friend Russ Roberts, trying to find his way out of a markedly rebellious lifestyle, found himself entwined in the alluring yet misleading doctrines of the International Church of Christ. His experience serves as an example of the perils that lurk within seemingly pious communities, where the truth of Jesus Christ's message can be obscured by well-crafted imitations. It’s a journey marked by small, deliberate steps of obedience, much like Peter’s, filled with inevitable stumbles yet propelled forward by the redeeming power of Christ's love.

My prayer is that through this series you will discover and be reminded of the hope and courage available to overcome life's challenges through the finished work of Christ.

On this episode, we will examine the red horse and its rider from Revelation 6 — an emblem of war and rage. It seems like everywhere we look there is war happening. But it's not just global conflicts that I want to examine; I want to turn the lens inward. I want to draw your attention to the reality that these bloody conflicts and war is never far from our souls. There is a violence that that can bubble up in us at any moment if we're not careful. The enemy of the end-times want to divide and sow conflict and I want to challenge you to fight for a Church that wields the spiritual armor of meekness and kindness in a world all too familiar with violence and rage.

My prayer is that through this series you will discover and be reminded of the hope and courage available to overcome life's challenges through the finished work of Christ.

This season I’ll be talking through some of the topics from my latest book, The Overcomers. In this episode I’m addressing what the White Rider represents in the book of Revelation. I’ll unpack the subtle dangers of false gospels infiltrating Christian thought—be it the illusive pursuit of self-actualization or the distorted focus on health and wellness over spiritual depth. And how these deceptions can lead us astray from true worship and understanding of Jesus.

My prayer is that through this series you will discover and be reminded of the hope and courage available to overcome life's challenges through the finished work of Christ.
