In this episode of the Greater Than Podcast, Elijah Murrell sits down with Kirk DuBois for a powerful and raw testimony of transformation.

Before ministry, before Rhema, before miracles — there were drugs, the occult, and supernatural encounters that brought fear instead of peace. Kirk shares how a dramatic encounter with Jesus during the Jesus Movement changed everything. What began as curiosity led to a life-altering moment that replaced darkness with the presence and peace of God.

Kirk opens up about the difference between counterfeit spiritual experiences and the genuine power of the Holy Spirit. He recounts powerful stories from the mission field — blind eyes opened, bodies healed, demons cast out — and explains why the presence of God is unlike anything the occult could offer.

The conversation also dives into practical wisdom on being led by the Spirit. Kirk shares how grounding yourself in the Word of God is essential for discerning the voice of the Holy Spirit in a noisy world. With decades of ministry experience, he offers encouragement to young believers and those who feel called to something greater.

Kirk’s new book, No High Like the Most High, captures his journey and is written to equip the next generation to walk boldly with Jesus.

This episode is a reminder that greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.

Was Jesus an immigrant?

It’s a question being asked more and more—often loudly, emotionally, and politically. But instead of reacting to the noise, this episode of the Greater Than Podcast slows the conversation down and asks a better question:

What does the Bible actually say?

In this episode, Elijah Murrell walks through Scripture and historical context to examine the claim that Jesus was an “illegal immigrant.” Rather than preaching politics or personal opinions, this conversation stays anchored in the Word of God and the realities of the Roman world in which Jesus lived.

You’ll hear a careful look at:

Luke 2 and the Roman census under Caesar Augustus

Matthew 2 and Jesus’ temporary stay in Egypt

The difference between immigration, refuge, and relocation

How Judea and Egypt functioned under the same Roman authority

Why using Jesus to support modern political narratives—on any side—misses the point

The episode also explores:

Acts 17:26 and God’s role in nations and boundaries

Leviticus 19 and what Scripture actually means by loving the foreigner

The biblical framework for foreigners who joined Israel

Romans 13 and submission to governing authorities

Abraham as a foreigner who honored law, order, and authority (Genesis 23)

This is not about defending a party or attacking one.

It’s about refusing to turn Jesus into a political symbol.

Romans 13 has been weaponized for years—but what did Paul actually mean?

In this episode of the Greater Than Podcast, Elijah Murrell dives into Scripture—not politics—to unpack Romans 13, submission to governing authorities, honoring leaders while upholding conscience, and what it truly means for government to be God’s minister for good, not unchecked power.

Paul wrote these words during the brutal reign of Nero, yet still urged believers to pray for kings and all in authority (1 Timothy 2:1–2). We explore how Christians can honor authority without compromising truth, resist injustice when it defies God, and live out a faith marked by both order and courage.

This conversation also draws from early church history, including Justin Martyr’s defense before Roman rulers, and examines how Christian apologetics shaped the church’s response to power, persecution, and public life.

In This Episode:

What biblical submission to authority really means

Where the limits of government authority are according to Scripture

How Christians should respond to unjust or tyrannical leadership

Why Romans 13 does not teach blind obedience.

🎙️ Episode Description

In this powerful and practical conversation, Elijah Murrell sits down with Geoffrey Graff to unpack what it really means to wait on God without wasting the season you’re in.

Together, they explore the universal experience of waiting, the pressure of comparison in the age of social media, and why so many believers feel stuck when God’s timing feels slow.

Pastor G shares biblical insight and personal testimony on how faith often requires action before clarity—and why improvement, faithfulness, and trust matter more than instant results.

This conversation dives into themes of calling, obedience, spiritual growth, and trusting God as the Good Shepherd, even when the path ahead isn’t clear. You’ll also hear reflections on legacy, faithfulness across generations, and how God uses seasons of waiting to prepare us for what’s next.

If you’ve ever struggled with patience, comparison, or knowing what to do while you wait on God, this episode will encourage you to take action, grow where you are, and trust God’s timing without fear.
