JAU Podcast 10-12-24 "He chose Me"

Do we choose God, or did He already choose us? Scott joins Dennis for a discussion on the power of knowing God already chooses us to be His special son or daughter in Jesus. The realization of this truth makes a profound difference in how we feel about church and our spiritual journey.

JAU Podcast 10-6-24 "The disappearing me"

In this episode, David Fulton and Arnold Quigley join Dennis for an in-depth discussion in which Arnold asks, "Have you ever had moments when your me just disappears into God?".

JAU Podcast 9-29-24 "Knowing the Father"

Dennis shares in this episode about his own spiritual journey in the knowledge of Jesus in us. He describes how the revelation of Col. 1:27 has now led to new insights into other key scriptures, such as Romans 8:19-22 and John 14:20. Knowing Jesus in this new way has opened a knowledge of the Father he never knew he wanted.

JAU Podcast with Arnold 8-29-24 "Just be You".

In this episode, Dennis is joined with Arnold Quigley to discuss the impact knowing Jesus lives in him has had on his life up to this point. One of the most important realizations has been to let God take charge of his life and just be who he is. This has given Arnold wonderful freedom and joy.

JAU Zoom Meeting 8-11-24 "Reframing the Gospel Message"

In this episode, Dennis and David maintain that the true gospel is not about "getting saved" and going to heaven, but about knowing God the Father through the person of Jesus Christ. They argue that the focus should be on experiencing God's presence and participating in His work in the world, rather than pursuing individual rewards or avoiding punishment. This requires a shift from self-focused spirituality to a God-centered perspective.

Is God in the 2024 Olympics? In this episode, Dennis and David discuss the biblical concept of the "fullness of God" and our identity as God's beloved children. They emphasize the importance of understanding and living out of this truth, rather than focusing on external circumstances or future concerns.

JAU Zoom Meeting 7-28-24 "Am I going to Heaven?"

Why is the message "going to heaven" destructive to Christians? What was Jesus' mission, to save people from sin or to make God known? Listen or watch as we discuss in this episode why John 14:20 gets lost in the prevailing Christian narrative of heaven as our ultimate goal, and we thus miss what God wants to in this life.

JAU Zoom Meeting 7-21-24 "Where are the fathers?"

Our group in this episode consisted of mainly older men who began today's discussion on the theme of God's use of their lives in the twilight years. They hit on one of the most important roles, and that being spiritual fathers to the next generation. They see the most critical function as speaking into the younger generation from their experience of living in Jesus.
