What happens when artificial intelligence starts replacing authentic faith?

In this episode, "Artificial Spirituality," we dive into a sobering and timely conversation about the growing trend of Christians turning to AI for guidance, wisdom, and even spiritual direction—roles meant for God alone. We unpack the dangers behind the rise of "AI Jesus," the temptation to outsource prayer, discernment, and biblical understanding to algorithms, and how the ease of instant answers is quietly reshaping minds, weakening spiritual discipline, and rotting our ability to think deeply and seek God sincerely.

This episode isn't anti-technology—it's a wake-up call. We explore how convenience can become a counterfeit for communion, how reliance on AI can dull discernment, and why true spiritual growth still requires prayer, Scripture, patience, and dependence on the Holy Spirit. If you've ever found yourself asking a machine questions you should be taking to God, this conversation will challenge, convict, and refocus your faith.

When everything in life gets faster, our values often get cheaper—and we don't even notice it happening. In this episode of Made Simple, we peel back the layers of a culture obsessed with convenience and instant gratification, and we talk honestly about how it's quietly reshaping our priorities as people and as followers of Jesus. From the way we serve God, to how we spend our time, to what we truly call "important," the speed and chaos of modern life can steal our focus even while giving us tools that make everything "easier."

So how do we reset? How do we slow down enough to value what actually matters? If you've been feeling stretched thin, spiritually distracted, or just tired of rushing through life, this conversation will feel like a deep breath. Let's talk about rediscovering value in a world that keeps trying to cheapen it.

In this episode, "Developing Your Character," we dive into how God sees our character and why it matters so deeply in our walk as Christians. Character isn't just who we are when people are watching—it's who we are when only God sees.

Join us as we explore what Scripture says about integrity, consistency, and spiritual growth, and how allowing God to shape our inner life transforms every part of our daily walk. When our character reflects His nature, our faith becomes stronger, our witness becomes clearer, and our purpose becomes more defined.

In this episode of the podcast, we dive deep into "The L Word" — lust — a topic that often gets whispered about but rarely broken down honestly. What is lust, really? How does it differ from love, desire, or attraction? And most importantly, how can we overcome it in a world that constantly feeds it?

We explore what the Bible says about lust, the hidden ways it can affect our thoughts and relationships, and how to pursue true purity of heart. This isn't about shame or guilt — it's about freedom, clarity, and learning to see people (and ourselves) through God's eyes, not through the lens of temptation.
