    Your Life 181-“Do You Really Know Him?” — Rediscovering an Intimate Relationship with Jesus
    Jan 13 2026
    Many believers talk about God. Fewer truly know Him.This week on Your Life, Dan DeBruler and Dr. Tony Haire dismantle the idea that religion alone equals relationship. Looking at John 7 through fresh eyes, they challenge listeners to trade surface familiarity for deep, personal communion with Jesus.In this episode:
    • John 7 : 25‑31 (NIV) — When the religious crowd couldn’t recognize Christ standing in front of them.
    • Why “knowing about” God isn’t the same as knowing Him.
    • How daily surrender deepens intimacy with Christ.
    • When faith becomes personal — and transforms how we see ourselves and others.
    • Practical steps to cultivate an everyday awareness of His presence.
    This is honest, Spirit‑led teaching from two voices who bring the Word home — helping us anchor faith not in familiarity, but in fellowship.

    Key Verse
    “You both know me and you know where I am from. I am not here on my own authority, but he who sent me is true. You do not know him, but I know him because I am from him and he sent me.”
    — John 7 : 28‑29 (NIV)

  • Your Life | 179 | Take Responsibility: Joseph’s Christmas Lesson

    Your Life | 179 | Take Responsibility: Joseph’s Christmas Lesson
    Dec 23 2025
    Joseph didn’t cause the crisis—but it was his assignment; here’s how taking responsibility becomes part of God’s redemption story.

    Dan and Tony walk through Matthew 1:18–25 to show how Joseph’s obedience reframes responsibility. God breaks 400 years of silence, interrupts Joseph’s plans, and asks him to own an assignment he didn’t cause—to take Mary as his wife, name the child Jesus, and steward a story bigger than his reputation.

    You’ll hear practical, pastoral counsel for men and families: slowing down to hear God, choosing obedience over optics, and engaging relatives who are far from Christ with questions, presence, and example. It’s a call to take responsibility in our homes, churches, and communities—especially when it’s uncomfortable.

  • Your Life 178-CONformed or TRANSformed?

    Your Life 178-CONformed or TRANSformed?
    Dec 9 2025
    How to diagnose whether you’re conforming to the culture or being transformed by the renewing of your mind—and what to do next.

    Today’s question is simple and searching: Am I being conformed or transformed? Romans 12:1–2 says real worship is a whole-life offering, a refusal to copy the patterns of this world, and a mind God keeps renewing. We’ll look at clear signs of conformity, the fruits of true transformation, and a one-week plan to reset your mind and rhythms—so your faith looks like Tuesday afternoon, not just Sunday morning.

    Conformed: 5 telltales (quick hits)
    1. Hurry > Holiness: pace sets your priorities; prayer is an afterthought.
    2. Outrage diet: inputs are mostly news, hot takes, and conflict; peace rarely visits.
    3. Comparison economics: spending and posting to keep up, not to serve.
    4. Compartment faith: spiritual talk at church; different voice online/at work.
    5. Feelings as facts: Scripture adjusts to me instead of me adjusting to Scripture.
    Transformed: 5 fruits
    1. Surrendered body: schedule, sexuality, appetites under Jesus (a “living sacrifice”).
    2. Scripture reflex: first frame is the Word; you test impressions by it.
    3. Stable joy/peace: not denial—resilience (Phil 4:7) in real pressure.
    4. Non-anxious presence: slower speech, quicker listening, gentler answers.
    5. Discernment: growing clarity about “good, acceptable, perfect” will in choices.
    7-Day Renewal Plan (doable, specific)
    • Day 1 — Reset inputs: 24-hour news/social fast. Read Romans 12 & Colossians 3.
    • Day 2 — Present your body: take a 20-minute walk; pray, “All of me, for all of You.”
    • Day 3 — Renew your mind: memorize Romans 12:1–2; write it on a card/phone.
    • Day 4 — Replace patterns: identify one “worldly pattern” (outrage, cynicism, comparison). Swap it with a kingdom habit (gratitude list, blessing someone, silence).
    • Day 5 — Community check: ask a mature believer, “Where do you see conformity in me?” Receive, don’t defend.
    • Day 6 — Generosity rep: give something that costs you—time, money, or spotlight.
    • Day 7 — Discernment hour: device-free hour with Bible + journal: “Lord, what next step proves renewal?” Act on one thing within 48 hours.

    Your Life | 176 | God-Pleasing Faith: More Relationship, Less Performance
    Oct 21 2025
    Tony Haire and Dan DeBruler unpack how ordinary believers can actually please God—not by spiritual hustle, but by a daily, dependent relationship with Him. What does it really take to please God?

    Today wer boil it down to one word: relationship. Pulling from Hebrews 11 and Enoch’s walk with God, they contrast performance-driven religion with simple, stubborn faith that trusts God’s character, obeys His voice, and keeps walking—especially when life is messy. You’ll hear practical handles for cultivating closeness with God: honest prayer, Scripture before screens, quick repentance, and small steps of obedience that add up over time. If you’ve been trying to earn what Jesus already finished, this conversation is a deep breath for your soul—and a nudge to start walking with Him today.

    Your Life | 174 | Follow God to Your Promised Land (Even When It’s the Long Way)
    Oct 2 2025
    What if God’s path to your promised land isn’t the fastest, but the safest? In this episode of Your Life, Dan DeBruler and Dr. Tony Hare walk through Exodus 13:17–22 and explore why God sometimes “reroutes” us—protecting us from battles we’re not ready for and preparing us for the ones ahead. From relationships and marriage to church life and calling, they talk about letting go, being led, and finding peace in obedience. You’ll hear:
    • Why shortcuts can sabotage spiritual growth
    • How God’s detours are mercy, not punishment
    • What it means to stand at the edge of your wilderness
    • Practical ways to follow God’s lead—day or night
    Scripture: Exodus 13:17–22
    Key ideas: obedience, patience, discernment, mentorship, spiritual formation, protection vs. preparation. If you’re facing a big decision, don’t despise the longer journey—God may be protecting you from what you can’t see and preparing you for what He’s promised.

  • Your Life | 173 | Stop Complaining, Start Thanking: The Secret to Contentment

    Your Life | 173 | Stop Complaining, Start Thanking: The Secret to Contentment
    Sep 23 2025
    Why do we so often long for the past while overlooking the blessings of the present? In this episode, Dr. Tony Hair and Dan De Bruer unpack the biblical tension between had and have. Through the lens of the Israelites’ complaints in the wilderness, they reveal how distorted memories can rob us of gratitude, why grumbling blinds us to God’s provision, and how choosing conversation with God over complaint changes everything. Listeners will discover:
    • The danger of romanticizing the past (Exodus 16, Numbers 11)
    • How complaining distorts reality and blocks gratitude
    • Why gratitude is the antidote to discontent
    • How to replace grumbling with honest conversation with God
    If you’ve ever struggled with discontentment or found yourself missing what was instead of appreciating what is, this discussion will equip you to shift perspective, cultivate gratitude, and honor God with a heart of contentment.
