George Esquivel started making shoes for himself and some friends, up-and-coming musicians in Southern California. Soon, Hollywood came calling. And it wasn’t just celebrities who took notice. A film financier did, too. He said he wanted to invest in the company, but George soon realized his intentions weren’t what they seemed. Join Ben and special guest host Kathleen Griffith as they speak to George about the rise of Esquivel Designs. Hear what a meeting with Anna Wintour is really like, and what happens when you’re betrayed by someone inside your company. These are The Unshakeables.

The effective communication of the Gospel out into the world is widely understood to be the central purpose of the Church. But how? Too often, we see this merely as proclaiming the Gospel using words, brochures, websites, etc. We dust off our hands, and feel that we've done our duty - successful with evangelism. As I read through Scripture, I see that the Gospel is communicated by much more than mere words. The words are important, but they are effectively delivered only when combined with power and through lives that radiate God's love, joy, hope, and truth - those who are living a different life.…

The Occult describes activities that attempt to connect with hidden spirit forces, either to gain knowledge or to access power. You may be familiar with some practices of the occult, such as witchcraft, palm reading, astrology, fortune telling, and seances. But there are also modern occult practices that masquerade as goodness, are not so easy to identify, but still have the same core pursuits of the “hidden”.…

The topic of Spiritual Warfare gets a lot of attention in some corners of Christianity, with teachings that are sometimes more speculative and sensationalized, than biblical. In other corners of Christianity, the topic of Spiritual Warfare is rarely touched upon, and this negligence plays right into the hands of demonic activity. To introduce the arena of Spiritual Warfare, this message covers five points from Scripture: (1) we must be attentive to spiritual attacks, (2) demons are real, (3) Christians cannot be possessed, but are nonetheless vulnerable, (4) these spiritual attacks are deceptive, and (5) we counter these attacks with spiritual weapons and a defensive posture.

Our integrity as a follower of Jesus is to be steadfast, to trust, and to remain committed even in tough times. This is the essence of the word "amen". But, we live in a hedonistic culture that struggles to remain committed. We are more interested in an easy way out than finding the way through. If you are serious about being a Christian, you need to practice "amen" and not just say it at the end of a prayer. Audio and Message Transcript: [Click]…

God is ultimately concerned about the condition of our heart, and out of the heart flows actions consistent with the state of one's heart. But not only actions, for our words also tattle on the condition of the heart.

The common way that anyone views people is from their external appearance and status, and we treat them and relate to them based on this judgment. But, with the Holy Spirit dwelling in us, our approach to people is mercy rather than judgment. Judgment is free. Mercy is costly. Audio and Message Transcript: [Click]…

Our religious activity can sometimes neglect doing core things that Jesus told us to do, sometimes substituting easier ideas, or watering down the intensity of something Jesus told us, or cherry-picking what we want to follow and ignore. This message contains a pivotal scripture that should cause you to wonder, "Am I following Jesus ... or something else?" Audio and Message Transcript: [Click]…

The first chapter of James opens with trials - particularly trials of sin and temptation - that you and every Christian faces. God has wisdom to lead you through the trial, and he wants you to keep facing the trial, keep persevering, and keep adjusting until you discover and embrace His wisdom. This success is pure joy!

When we raise children, we are doing our best to help them become a cooperative and productive member of society, and to interact with our society in such a way that they remain healthy. To raise a child requires more than instruction, for they also need sufficient experience and mentoring to help them live out those instructions. When it comes to spiritual teachings, however, it seems that we may be satisfied with simply telling stories from the Bible of how God interacted with a people thousands of years ago. If God becomes only a story, then we'll forget him just like Israel did after the entered the Promised Land. So, we need to pursue engaging with God afresh in our current generation, so that we experience our own stories. Audio and Message Summary: [Click]…

When a person is going through a crisis or stressful situation, it can cause them to become isolated and face the situation alone. Recovery will always begin with looking to God for help, just like Psalm 121 suggests, but God uses a variety of people to help a person get from bad to better. Will God use you? Even if you aren't naturally the kind of person who can be a comforter, an encourager, a guide, or a motivator, God can turn a weak person into an effective person. You may become the person your friend needs to get better. Message Summary: [Click]…

The topic of God and Suffering is vast, and I could never hope to address all the questions and the philosophical points that surround it. Countless are the books, sermons, and seminars. This message is focused on stress in the midst of suffering, and in particular two words that highlight an attitude God desires His people to discover in these times: perseverance and hope. It isn't easy to turn our attention away from the pain and toward hope, but it is possible. And as you are able, eventually, you will find peace in the midst of the pain. Message Summary: [Click]…

There is a shadowy closet that most of us have in our lives. Few know about this closet, because we would feel shame if people discovered it in our lives. Perhaps it is gambling, or compulsive shopping, or pornography, or procrastination, or over-eating, or gaming, or endless social-media. We can't or don't want to stop, and we keep doing it over and over. These are called behavioral addictions, and though they may not feel as destructive as drug or alcohol addictions, they fill us with stress and do spiritual damage. The good news is that as a Christian, we have power to overcome these cycles of addiction. Message Summary: [Click]…
