The Autumn Miles Show

Special Guest - Andi Andrew

Talking about her latest book, "Fake or Follower", Andi Andrew joins us on the show today as we discuss how we live in a culture where many identify as "Christian" without fully embracing what it looks like to follow Jesus day-in and day-out. After gathering on a Sunday, do we simply go about our business, void of true transformation? Is the gospel simply a self-help tool, the church just a place where our needs can be met? It's time to ask ourselves, "Am I really following Jesus? Or am I just faking it?"

"With eye-opening personal stories, Scripture, and thought-provoking questions, Andi Andrew lovingly invites readers to examine their hearts to discover whether their faith is a genuine, life-giving marriage of belief and practice in response to Christ's life and sacrifice, or if it is just a lifestyle choice on par with any other. She encourages readers to surrender their whole lives to Jesus daily, grapple with hard questions they may have been avoiding, and discover a life fully alive, following in the way, the truth, and the life of Jesus Christ."

Burn the Oxen and the Net

In a world full of options, God is looking for people who are going obey what he says no matter the cost.  Don’t leave your options open when God has given you a clear command. Elisha was summoned by Elijah to be his prophetic successor, so Elisha left his oxen and plow in the field to immediately obey God’s call.  What do you need to completely abandon to do the same? Burn that plow, cut up the safety net, resign from that job, or quit that habit out of obedience to the call of God and watch what He does with your life.

Special Guest - Kaitlin Wernet

"When someone is grieving, what should we say? How can we help? How do we comfort without offering shallow platitudes? Grief, loss, and pain are significant and unavoidable parts of the human experience, but they’re often overlooked or minimized."

One author of "The Book of Comforts: Genuine Encouragement For Hard Times", our guest Kaitlin Wernet talks about her experience with grief and the process of healing. She joins us on the show today as we dig deep into what the process of grief looks like and how we can find hope in Jesus Christ.

Kaitlin Wernet is a highly motivated content creator who loves capturing ideas in writing, building excitement with purpose, and celebrating life through relationships.

God is Active in the Awkwardness

Our comfort is killing us.  God asks us to do or say the awkward and we balk.  But, He is producing a result while you are standing there shaking like Moses did before Pharaoh. Faith is not comfortable. But don’t let the awkward make you quit; let it propel you to dig into your situation with stubborn faith. God is active when its awkward. Push past the awkwardness to the reward on the other side.

Crush Satan Right On His Head

Satan is crushing our heads, minds, future and potential with junk because he sees more potential in us than we do!!  We tiptoe around evil and Satan because he intimidates some of us- we aren’t crushing him on the head. The power of God resides inside of us through Jesus; we are MORE than conquerors. Wake up and take your life back; it is time to crush the enemy in the name of Jesus.

Special Guest - Dave and Ann Wilson

"Sharing the secrets to a happy marriage!"

Dave and Ann Wilson join us on our show today and we talk about the nitty-gritty of marriage! We're going to go THERE. Let's have a real conversation about how we fight for a godly marriage, the way God intended it to be!

Dave and Ann Wilson are co-founders of Kensington Church, a national, multi-campus church that hosts more than 14,000 attendees every weekend, and authors of Vertical Marriage. For the past twenty-five years, they have been featured speakers at Family Life’s Weekend to Remember®, and have also hosted their own marriage conferences across the country.

Leave It Pruned

God sometimes removes relationships, expectations, jobs, etc. from our lives in His pruning process to make us rely totally on Him.  The pruning may hurt, but it is always for our spiritual and personal health. Don’t superglue or duct tape the dead branch of a relationship back onto your healthy, vibrant life.  The children of Israel actually foolishly tried to return to their slavery in Egypt after God had pruned the slavery from them because they were tempted with Egypt’s supposed “luxury”, but Satan was really attempting to trick them back into bondage.  Keep what God has pruned dead!

Facing the Defeat

"People stay defeated because victory takes work."

Are you staying in your defeat? There is a process to the victory! Get up, and let's do the work!

Wait Gains

We often think that waiting strips joy from our soul and steals our energy and drive.  However, God says the opposite is true; He says that those who wait on Him will gain new strength and will not tire.  Learn how to accept in faith to that this contradictory concept is true and learn how to operate your life in accordance WITH the wait so you will gain all that God has for you through it.
