The Up Podcast - with David Stearman

Our Father

Whether you had an awesome dad or an awful dad, you can imagine what a perfect dad might be like. That's our Heavenly Father. And He loves you...but He also likes you...

The Power of Persistence

Good advice from Moses, Winston Churchill, and Billy Joe Daugherty: Never give up on your dreams.

Jumping the Fence

Did you know that a mustang, that wild and free embodiment of the Spirit of the Wild West, is really just a workhorse who jumped the fence? He lifted his eyes and thought, "What would happen if I broke out of this corral?" What happened is that he became all he was born to be. And sometimes we also need to jump the fence to become all we were born to be. 

Begin

Begin. Do what you can, then God will do what you can't.

Believe in your Dream

We all have hopes and dreams. But I want to encourage you today to believe in them. Not to just think, "Oh, wouldn't that be nice," but to walk in real assurance that you could one day see them come true. 
Yes, your dreams may seem impossible for you, and they may actually be, but Jesus said, "The things are impossible with men are possible with God." 

Believe in Yourself

There's a false humility that says, "I'm nothing. Nobody. No-one." But God wants you to know He created something awesome when He created you. Yes, God wants you to believe in yourself.

Believe in God

Believeing in God means having confidence in Him to help you to do the things you can't do on your own. God is faithful. When you trust Him, He won't let you down.

You Can Become the Person You Want to Be

Those dreams in your heart aren't put there as a tease - God wants to make them come true.

God Needs You

Of course you need God, but did you also know that He also needs you?

Yes In Him

When you pray for something God promised, His answer is always "Yes." Not "no", "maybe" or, "I'll have to think about that", just..."Yes!"
