Saddleback Church Content Development Pastor is joined by Dr. Kutter Callaway to discuss theology and film. Movies have a powerful and interesting way of capturing our attention, our emotions, and our thought life. What does this say about us? And how does this relate to our relationship with God? This conversation looks to answer these questions along with talking about common religious themes and motifs in movies, the need to be discerning against heresy in film, and the power of emotion and what it says about being made in the image of God. Kutter Callaway is the William K. Brehm Chair of Worship, Theology, and the Arts, as well as associate dean of the Center for Advanced Theological Studies, and associate professor of theology and culture. He is actively engaged in writing and speaking on the interaction between theology and culture—particularly film, television, and online media—in both academic and popular forums.   Doable Discipleship is a Saddleback Church podcast produced and hosted by the Saddleback Spiritual Growth Team.

Saddleback Church Content Development Pastor Jason Wieland is joined by author, teacher, and spoken word artist Hosanna Wong for a conversation around identity in Christ and how to adopt the rhythms of Jesus. One of the most fundamental questions of life is Who Am I? and, in Christian circles, we are often rushed to answer that our identity is in Christ. But how do we really find out what this means and, even when we do feel connected to Jesus, how do we keep that connection? This conversation addresses these questions and dives deep into looking at four rhythms or spiritual disciplines that you can begin adopting in your own life.   Hosanna Wong is an international speaker, best-selling author and spoken word artist helping everyday people know Jesus for real. Widely known for her spoken word piece, "I Have A New Name," Hosanna shares in churches, conferences, prisons, and other events around the world, reaching across various denominations, backgrounds and cultures. Born and raised in an urban ministry on the streets of San Francisco, Hosanna later packed her life into suitcases and traveled to churches and other ministries throughout the United States to share about Jesus through spoken word poetry. During those years without a permanent home, she began speaking and creating resources to serve the local and global Church. Hosanna currently travels and speaks year-round, and serves on teaching teams at churches throughout the United States. She and her husband, Guy serve together in various ministries equipping people with tools to share the gospel of Jesus in today's world. Hosanna is the best-selling author of How (Not) to Save the World. Her new book, You Are More Than You've Been Told releases August 2023.   Doable Discipleship is a Saddleback Church podcast produced and hosted by the Saddleback Spiritual Growth Team.

Saddleback Spiritual Growth Pastor Jason Wieland is joined by Kendall Hibiske to talk about praying for the next generation. Your church likely has kids and student ministries where kids can go to learn about God. Adults often say we’re grateful for those pastors and then continue on focusing on our own church experience. There is something missing in the way that we think about the next generation. There’s not just an opportunity, but a necessity, to be intentional toward and praying for the next generation. Kids and students are not just the future church, they are the church of now and they will face challenges and trials as they continue to grow in their faith, but they also will see wonderful opportunities and powerful experiences. How can we be entering into prayer on their behalf? How can we be lifting up the next generation? This is a powerful conversation about how we should view the next generation, our role in prayer, and where the two meet. The conversation looks at the power of intergenerational prayer, what we can be learning from the younger generation, how our prayer lives can and do change, and some ways we can specifically be praying for the next generation.   Doable Discipleship is a Saddleback Church podcast produced and hosted by the Saddleback Spiritual Growth Team.

Saddleback Spiritual Growth Pastor Jason Wieland is joined by Celebrate Recovery Pastor Meaghan Grider to talk about patience. Talking about patience may sound trivial, or may even be something you want to actively avoid, but honestly it’s an extremely important topic with many rich layers to it. We may think of patience as waiting in line, or putting on a nice face rather than lashing out in anger or frustration. But there is a depth and nuance to talking about patience that is so often untapped and underdeveloped. Patience can and should be a marker of our attachment to God and can be a diagnostic tool to help you figure what areas of your life you may be struggling in right now. Meaghan and Jason talk about Meaghan’s own battles with patience, the struggles of patience as it relates to anxiety and depression, the beautiful opportunity we have to trust God when we ask for help with patience, and much more.   Doable Discipleship is a Saddleback Church podcast produced and hosted by the Saddleback Spiritual Growth Team.

Saddleback Spiritual Growth Pastor Jason Wieland and Saddleback Lake Forest Campus Pastor Katie Edwards talk about the importance of having fun and joy in life. This episode part of an ongoing series on emotional health. When we talk about emotional health, we usually talk about anger, or sadness, or any of the hard, negative feelings. Bu it’s also important to look at the positive emotions – in particular, fun. There can be confusion too about how we should navigate church and our relationship with God, with fun. Am I supposed to have constant posture of reverence and piety, or is there a way to be reverent and fun at the same time? Jason and Katie talk about these questions, along with looking at what it means to have child-like faith, how fun can lead to deeper relationships, and the benefits of having fun within the family of God.   Doable Discipleship is a Saddleback Church podcast produced and hosted by the Saddleback Spiritual Growth Team.

Saddleback Spiritual Growth Pastors Jason Wieland and Rob Jacobs talk about The Wall, an experience that all Christians face at some point or multiple points. Sometimes called “the dark night of the soul”, the wall is a season of spiritual dryness where one feels that God is distant. Rob and Jason talk about the wall’s place in the JESUS stages, what it looks like being at the wall, and the emotional toll that the wall can take. The conversation, though, continues to talk about the wall as an invitation to step into a new season of deep, vulnerable growth with Jesus.   Doable Discipleship is a Saddleback Church podcast produced and hosted by the Saddleback Spiritual Growth Team.

Description: Saddleback Spiritual Growth Pastors Jason Wieland and Linda Tokar take a look at two prominent people in the Bible, Jesus and David, and how they exhibited emotions. Their emotions ran the full range from the highest of highs, to the lowest of lows, and everything in-between. These pictures help us to accept that emotions are not a bad thing. In fact, they are given by God. We are not called to be stoic, or to only by happy. We were created to experience emotions of all shapes and kinds and Jesus and David are great examples of this truth.   Doable Discipleship is a Saddleback Church podcast produced and hosted by the Saddleback Spiritual Growth Team.

Saddleback Spiritual Growth Pastors Jason Wieland and Brandon Bathauer talk about a common question for Christians: what does it mean that I am simultaneously a sinner and a saint? The conversation starts by looking at what the Bible says about us as sinner, then what the Bible talks about us as saints. It addresses the confusion of what it means to hold these two in tension and talks about the difficult emotional toll that this can have on people. Many people find themselves stuck in cycles of shame, guilt, or doubt when wrestling with their sin vs. their supposed saved nature.

Saddleback Spiritual Growth Pastor Jason Wieland talks with Todd Olthoff, Pastor of Pastoral Care at Saddleback Church. The conversation starts focused on how we have transitioned from a culture that refused to openly talk about issues of emotional health to one that is vocal and more willing to share about the issue. They talk about what happens in the brain to cause emotional responses, why people may have a difficult time processing their emotions, and how emotions are deeply tied to attachment issues. The conversation shifts to talk about ways to recognize what emotions you are feeling at any given moment and how to respond to them in appropriate ways. They give tips and advice on how to react to emotions and then talk about the power of teaching kids about emotional intelligence.   Doable Discipleship is a Saddleback Church podcast produced and hosted by the Saddleback Spiritual Growth Team.

Description:  Saddleback Spiritual Growth Pastors Jason Wieland and Linda Tokar talk about the reality that every interaction you have with others is an exercise in influence. Other people influence you, and you influence other people. This episode looks at what the Bible says about influence and our call to be intentional about the types of influence we allow in our lives and the power we have in how we influence others. Learn how to pre-plan your boundaries, do a self-check on what you are allowing in your life, and how influence is cyclical – what influences us impacts how we influence others.   Doable Discipleship is a Saddleback Church podcast produced and hosted by the Saddleback Spiritual Growth Team.
