What is real ministry—and what’s just church busywork? In episode 93, Drew and Tim respond to a viral social media clip that stirred up strong opinions about church volunteer roles, first impressions, and whether we're truly serving God's vision or just copying megachurch models. You’ll hear our honest thoughts, listener reactions, and a deeper challenge to rethink how we define service, success, and spiritual impact in today’s church. Ask Yourself 👇 Are we calling everything “ministry” just to keep people busy? Can churches unintentionally make guests feel like a project instead of a person? Is your church copying what works somewhere else instead of asking what God wants? How do we know if a role or program is actually fruitful—or just familiar? Are we measuring success by transformation or by attendance and applause? 🎧 Listen now, think deeply, and let’s redefine ministry through the lens of Jesus—not trends. 👇 Drop your thoughts in the comments. 📲 Subscribe for more honest convos about faith, church, and culture.

Are your emotions leading you closer to God—or pulling you away? In this powerful episode of the Eyes on Jesus Podcast , Drew and Tim explore the role of emotions in our spiritual lives. Too often, we either let emotions dictate our faith or suppress them entirely. But what if emotions were never meant to be in control—only to guide us? ✅ Why emotions are like a thermometer, not a steering wheel in your faith. ✅ How Jesus displayed emotions—without letting them control Him. ✅ The dangers of extreme emotionalism vs. cold intellectualism in faith. ✅ Practical ways to submit emotions to God while still embracing them. ✅ How revival often begins with deep emotional encounters with God. 🔹 Am I allowing emotions to drive my decisions instead of God’s truth? 🔹 Do I suppress emotions, fearing they’ll lead me astray? 🔹 How can I surrender my emotions to Jesus while still being authentic? 🔹 Could my emotions be pointing me toward areas where God wants to work in my life? This episode is a wake-up call for anyone struggling to balance emotions and faith. Whether you tend to rely too much on feelings or ignore them altogether, this conversation will help you find a healthier, more Christ-centered approach. 🎧 Listen now and join the conversation! Don’t forget to like, comment, and share!
