What get the final word in your life? Jesus said, "No one can serve two masters."

And while He was talking specifically about God and money, money isn’t the only thing competing for the throne.

• Success.
• Approval.
• Comfort.
• Control.
• Reputation.
• Even being right.

Sometimes the easiest way to discover what we’re really serving is to ask: What am I most afraid of losing?

Because whatever I absolutely cannot lose may be carrying weight it was never meant to carry.

On today’s I Know a Guy, we continue our series The Kingdom of God: Free for What? Loyal to Whom?

Episode 2 is: “You Can’t Serve Two Kings.”

And if you’re realizing that fear, performance, approval or control has been shaping more of your identity than you thought, that’s exactly the kind of work I do through 1:1 Identity Coaching at Bringing Kingdom—helping men move out of fear-based living and into the freedom of knowing who they are as beloved sons.

But start here: Who actually gets the final word in your life?

What if Christianity is bigger than “believe in Jesus now so you can go to heaven later”?

When Jesus began His ministry, He announced something much bigger: “The Kingdom of God has come near.”

A Kingdom means there's a King.

And following a King means eventually we have to answer a difficult question: Who actually gets the final word in my life?

We're starting a brand-new series on I Know a Guy called The Kingdom of God. Today, episode 1 is “The Gospel Jesus Actually Preached.”

Caleb waited forty-five years.

And at eighty-five years old, he stood in front of Joshua and said:

“Give me this hill country.”

The giants were still there.

But they no longer got to decide who Caleb was.

On today’s episode of I Know a Guy, we’re bringing home the What Are You Waiting For? series.

You’ve survived.

You’ve learned.

You’ve healed.

You know who you are.

Now the question is:

Are you going to live like it?

Because freedom isn’t just understanding why you stayed in Egypt.

Freedom is walking into the land.

Episode 7:

What Are You Waiting For?

Listen today to I Know a Guy.

And if this episode stirred something in you — if you know you’re still stuck in survival, fear, performance, or trying to prove who you are — I do 1:1 Identity Coaching through Bringing Kingdom.

It’s a place to get underneath what’s driving you and begin living from who the Father says you are.
