Priorities, How do we make them?
August 30, 2018 • Jason Lineberger
We often struggle with making goals and setting our priorities to meet those goals but that struggle gets even worse this time of year when the school year kicks in. A lot of people are back in school, have kids back in school, and work tends to pick up some depending on where you live. With the added stress and the temptation to coast through and pray you make it, how can we set our priorities in a way to accomplish our spiritual goals going into this busy season? Join us in this episode as we talk about this "fun" topic.
Why Does Ignite Do ATM?
August 9, 2018 • Jason Lineberger
Every year Ignite does a series called "At The Movies." In this series we look at a few blockbuster films from the past year and find the spiritual themes in the movies. It is a fun series where we have characters dressed up in the lobby and pass out popcorn as you walk in, but why do we do this? Why is this even remotely the best use of a Sunday mornings message? In this episode Jason looks at why we do this series and takes a look at what scriptures one could use for or against this type of series.
Father Abraham #1

Sharing Jesus w/ People of Other Faiths
March 15, 2018 • Josh Faulkner
Sharing Jesus with people of other faiths can be a challenge. No matter what faith someone may have, there has to be a basic knowledge and sensitivity to their beliefs be able to love people where they are before we can share Jesus with them.

All of these are dire questions that we have to address to share our faith effectively with people of other faiths.

Can you be Angry?
March 1, 2018 • Jason Lineberger
Anger very often is an emotion that can be associated with sin. Rarely if ever would someone abuse, or tear someone down out of being happy for them, but those are often born out of an anger toward someone. But is there an instance where anger is not sinful? Join Pastor Jason this week to talk about anger.
To Forgive, or Not to Forgive?
February 8, 2018 • Jason Lineberger
We all want forgiveness when we wrong others but when it comes time for us to forgive wrongs done to us it can be difficult to take that step. Do we always have to forgive though? Doesn't God understand sometimes if we don't? What does the Bible really say about how we treat others that wrong us? Join Pastor Jason in this weeks episode of the Pastor Jason Discipleship Podcast as we talk about forgiveness.
