Sharing Your Faith Doesn’t Have to Be Awkward
Let’s be honest—most of us don’t share our faith all that often. It can feel awkward… or even a little cringy. Maybe you’re afraid of rejection or just not sure how to bring it up without sounding weird or preachy.
In this episode, we’ll show you a way to share your faith that actually sounds like good news—and feels like good news to others too. This doesn’t require a script or special training… just a shift in how you see people and what you believe about God’s love for them (and for you).
You’ll see how talking about spiritual things can become a natural part of your everyday conversations.
In This Episode You’ll Learn:
- The one thing we all share that makes this easier than you think
- Why resting in God’s love for you is the best starting place
- How to flip the script on religious conversations
- A simple way to show people the Gospel without “preaching”

Ask Caesar #1
I get a lot of questions from many of my readers and those I train and coach, so today I thought I would answer a couple of those questions in a segment that I will call, “Ask Caesar”. Pretty original, right? 🙂 I hope you like this and find it helpful.
Let’s give this a spin…I’ve got a couple of great questions here that are actually somewhat related. And they are both really important! (more…)
Why Pleasing Everyone Isn’t Your Job
People love to offer their opinions—about your choices, your ministry, your lifestyle. But sometimes the best way to care for others (and yourself) is to stop caring so much about what certain people think.
This week on the Everyday Disciple Podcast, we’re talking about the voices that hold you back—and how to break free from people-pleasing so you can actually make disciples and live on mission. This one might be exactly what your soul needs.
In This Episode You’ll Learn:
- Why our desire for acceptance runs so deep
- How people’s opinions can quietly keep us stuck
- The 3 types of people it’s okay to stop listening to
- Who’s opinion really matters (and who’s doesn’t)

Gratitude: An Astonishing Lesson I’ll Never Forget
Lately I have been thinking about all the things I have to be grateful for in my life, but I have also noticed how many things I seem to complain about–most of which are not really a big deal.
Most of which are truly 1st-world issues that I’ll bet 2/3 of the people on this planet never really worry about. I’ll complain about a toilet that’s running…again… and then be reminded of how many people in the world lack sanitation and would say, “you own a toilet–of your own?!” Where’s my gratitude?
Why Treating Others Like Family Is Good News
Who’s in… who’s out… Are we really supposed to treat everyone like family? Or is that just something we do with other Christians?
This week on the Everyday Disciple Podcast, we look at what Scripture actually says—and why I believe God is calling us to treat everyone like they’re part of the family. It’s more than kindness. It’s gospel.
When we open our homes, our time, and our hearts to others, we’re reflecting what God has already done for us. A seat at your table is a seat at our Dad’s table.
In This Episode You’ll Learn:
- How God sees all people as his image-bearers
- What it truly means to be a “child of God”
- Why treating others like family makes the gospel tangible
- How to shift your mindset if you were raised with a more closed definition of family
