UCT 042: Walking in Jesus' Authority
Monday Mar 16, 2020
Monday Mar 16, 2020
If you're like most Christians, you probably have an idea of how you want your faith to grow. Most of us can think of a few areas that we would like to have more success in, but we don't really know how to get there. We're taught by our culture to do life on our own, independent of others, but nothing seems to change.
Steve joins the show to talk about Jesus' plan for just such a scenario, and it involves some pretty uncommon (and uncomfortable) solutions. Allowing Jesus--and those he puts in our lives--to have authority in our everyday lives is tough. However, Steve's stories prove that submission and surrender to Jesus' rule are the key to a faith you can be proud of.

UCT 046: Plugging In to Real Community
Monday Apr 20, 2020
Monday Apr 20, 2020
In the midst of COVID-19 social distancing measures, church members have been sorely missing their church families. At the same time, some who have walked away from traditional church communities have began to come back via online services and Zoom chats. It raises the question, what does Jesus say about being plugged into a community of believers?
In this weeks episode, we discuss how authentic connection to a group of believers can unlock the real freedom and abundant life people are searching for.

UCT 047: How Should Our Lives Reflect Jesus?
Monday Apr 27, 2020
Monday Apr 27, 2020
As followers of Jesus, what should our lives look like? Here in the West, do our lives look any different from our friends and neighbors who don't know Jesus? In a time of radical upheaval surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, we discuss the radical change that knowing and following Jesus should bring to our lives and churches.

UCT 048: Learning to Give Your Life Away
Monday May 04, 2020
Monday May 04, 2020
The biblical passages about sacrifice are not very popular, but they are hard to ignore. Stories and admonitions about sacrifice are riddled throughout the New Testament for those with the courage to read and apply them. What happens when we decide not to skip over these challenges and instead embrace them?
Steve and Vicki Orsillo founded the Father's House Church in Oroville, California in 1997. Instead of building in the center of town, they felt Jesus leading them to Southside with its rampant poverty, drug abuse and prostitution. More than 20 years later, they continue to reap the rewards of their sacrifice—not just in their ministry, but in their own lives especially.

UCT 049: Unpacking Real Intimacy with God

Monday May 11, 2020
Talking about living like Jesus and obeying his teachings can bring up tension. Should our faith be based on what we do or upon intimacy with Jesus? Is it religion or relationship? Is that even the right question to ask?
As the title of our podcast suggests, Steve & Vicki Orsillo take an uncommon view of intimacy with Jesus. They discuss what an intimate relationship with Jesus looks like and how we're supposed to walk that out in our daily lives.

UCT 050: Does Jesus Command Us to Forgive?
Monday May 18, 2020
Monday May 18, 2020
The topic of forgiveness is not a very popular one, even within Christianity. Most of us are eager to accept forgiveness, but we rarely focus on those whom we need to forgive. So what does Jesus have to say about it?
In Western Christianity, forgiving others can sometimes be seen as optional. Even when forgiving is a focus, the question of how it is done is a challenge. Is forgiveness just a statement? Does it mean I have to forget the harm done to me? What about trusting those who have wronged me? Steve and Vicki Orsillo have an uncommon response based directly on the words of Jesus.

UCT 051: Being Salt & Light in a Bland & Dark World
Monday May 25, 2020
Monday May 25, 2020
Jesus asks his followers to be the "Salt of the earth" and the "Light of the world." What does that mean? Are we supposed to blend in with our neighbors so that we can influence them? Or should we look and act completely different?
More to the point, is this type of lifestyle optional for us as Christians? What are the consequences––for ourselves and for the world––if we fail to act?
