It's time for our next book study! While many topics we cover on this podcast are about repair, this topic could be thought of as construction. 

Building Bounce explains the theory behind growing emotional resilience and provides practical tools you can use in a variety of settings, such as growing your own emotional capacity, parenting your children in ways that build joy, and helping others who live low-joy lives learn the skills that grow joy.

In this On the Trail episode, we discuss Chapter One: The Secret to Emotional Resilience. This chapter unpacks an overview of three practices that help us grow our resilience: Appreciation, Beliefs, and Connections. 

The good news is that wherever you are starting this journey, growth is possible. People used to believe we were victims of the wiring in our brains. We now know that our brains can be rewired. We want to help you learn how to train your brain by building habits that increase your ability to bounce back from the hard things in life. 

Thank you for joining us – father-daughter duo Marcus Warner and Stephanie Warner – on the trail to a deeper walk with God!

P.S. There was a hiccup with the podcast releasing under the wrong name last week. So sorry! It was fixed, but in case there is any lingering confusion, this is the order: Episode 71: The Occult Invasion of America released October 30, 2023. Episode 72: Occult vs. Kingdom released November 6, 2023.

Over the next couple weeks, we'll be reviewing identity formation from the angles of brain science, Scripture, spiritual warfare, and community.

Our brains work from right to left, from attachment to beliefs. So it makes sense we follow that pattern. This week's compilation reviews how attachment affects our identity. 

We're looking at personal identity formation from brain science and from biblical realities. 

• Why does identity matter?  
• How did God design us to form our identity? 
• What does the Bible teach us about our identity?  
• What can we do to overcome the obstacles and repair holes that keep us from living out of our true identity? 

We'll cover these questions and more over the next couple weeks. 

This compilation episode covers Season 1, Episodes 58-60.

We've been talking about who the world, the flesh, and the devil say you are. This week we’re moving into the Kingdom perspective!

What is the New Covenant, and how does it inform not only how we understand our own identity but God’s as well? 

We’ll be taking the next several episodes to dig deeper into the richness that is our identity in Christ, laying out the practical, theological realities imbued in our relationship with God. 

On the podcast, we've been walking through the Abrahamic Covenant of Promise as a meditation on the four themes of Advent: Hope, Peace, Joy, and now Love.

On the fourth Sunday of Advent (Dec 21), we light all four candles. Christmas is almost here!! On Christmas Day, we encourage you to complete the Advent celebration with the lighting of the Christ Candle, which you can place at the center of your wreath.

Join us on the trail as we wrap up the Advent series with a look at the remarkable love of God and as we celebrate some 2025 highlights and pray for our community.

Grab your Bible and linger with us over the Binding of Isaac and the Message of Christmas (Gen 22) and meditate on the Gospel of Love given to us (Gal 3:8; Jn 15:13; Rom 8:32).

Finally, wow, what a robust year 2025 has been! Thank you to everyone who has been a part of the journey – from prayer partners, to financial partners, to volunteers and beyond! Thank you for prioritizing your heart and the hearts of those around you as you cultivate a deeper walk with God.

May you, being rooted and grounded in the love of Christ who dwells in you, be filled with all the fullness of God. (See Eph 3:14-20.)

Merry Christmas!

Soli Deo Gloria

Stay On the Trail toward a Deeper Walk with God with father-daughter duo Marcus & Stephanie Warner. Listen in on conversations about important models and concepts that inform the way we live the Christian life. We talk philosophy, theology, and practical issues related to heart-focused discipleship.

The point of the acorn represents the point of the covenant, a blessing through Abraham that "all nations will be blessed through you"(Gen 22:18; Gal 3:8, etc.). This is the promise of Christ, the 'reason for the season.'

As we dwell on 'Joy,' we reflect on the seed promised to Abraham. Isaac's name literally means "he laughs." God had plans for Abraham's household as a family unit and as a legacy that would usher in THE seed, Jesus Christ, who has us singing Joy to the World to this day and forevermore.

Joy is a relational experience that connects us to God and others. The Abrahamic Covenant symbolizes God's promise of this belonging. Throughout the Old Testament, we see the recurring theme of belonging in such refrains as "I will be your God, and you will be My people" (Gen 17:7; Exo 6:7; Deu 29:13; Jer 30:22, etc.).

How does this sense of belonging inform our sense of joy? Is there a difference between relational and spiritual joy? How can we meditate on and cultivate more joy during this Advent season?

God not only desires a people for Himself but even invites us into a joyful relationship with Him and with each other. May you experience the JOY of belonging to our God this season.

We've reached the close of our 3-2-1 Bible Study Method series, and the topic of the episode is APPLICATION. The goal isn't to master the Bible but for the Bible to master us. Once we've done the work of observation and interpretation, it's time to apply what we've learned.

In this episode, we're looking at three phases of application: the message to the original audience, the universal principles, and the personal applications. A simple way of remembering these phases is THEN, ALWAYS, NOW.

We also discuss a fourth lens to the interpretive process: the effect of Fear and Joy Bonds with God. And we work through two examples from the Bible as well as offer some next steps for your Bible Study journey.

Your sense of identity is deeper than what you can express in words. Last week we talked about the Fast Track of the brain that processes some of this nonverbal understanding. This week, we're looking at the brain's "mirror neurons" to deepen this understanding.

Mirror neurons learn about "me" by looking at "you." This is one of the reasons why community and relationships with people and with God are so important to calling out our true identity.

In part one, we're specifically addressing two common reasons for why this can be difficult and making some plans for how to remain ourselves despite relational pain or pecking order issues.

This series looks at the five main areas where we surrender ground to the enemy. These five areas can be remembered with the acrostic SOUL-L: Sin, the Occult, Unforgiveness, Lies we believe, and Lineage. 

If sin is like leaving your front door unlocked for the enemy, the occult is like throwing open the garage door and hosting a block party. Unforgiveness is an invitation to the enemy to poison you (rather than the other person). And when we believe lies, it’s like shaking hands with the devil and saying, “You’re right, and God’s wrong.” 

All of these are common ways we give the enemy permission to a place in our lives.

A fifth common way the enemy claims ground is through permissions given by people in our lineage. We’re looking at all five of these areas in this week’s compilation episode. 

This compilation episode covers Season 1, Episodes 42-46.

For the next two episodes, we are talking about how to tame the amygdala and return to joy when we find ourselves trapped in one of the big six negative emotions. 

Are your relational circuits off? Are you encountering demonic interference? Is it possible that a false Jesus could show up?

Whether you are a prayer minister or you are working on your own emotional healing, there are common obstacles that can get in the way. This episode will deal with some of the common obstacles that keep us from connecting with God. 

Marcus says two words blew up his old paradigm: Joy Bonds. His old paradigm said belief + choice = transformation, but what about joy and attachment? 

We’re starting down a new trail for the summer where we explore the transformative nature of joy, and we hope you’ll join us!

At the Cross, Jesus Christ disarmed the principalities and powers and canceled the debt against us (Col. 2:14-15). This victory is the foundation of our freedom and our authority in Christ. What does it look like to have this authority? 

In this series, we dig into Scripture that exposes the devil’s nature and look at strategies for breaking free and staying free of the enemy and his snares. We discuss the foundational principles of spiritual warfare, specifically the legal approach that deals with permission and authority.

This compilation episode covers Season 1, Episodes 39-41.

What does it look like to have this authority? 

In our current series, we have been discussing the foundational principles of spiritual warfare. Last week we looked at permission and authority, particularly digging into permission.

In today's episode, we are looking at our authority in Christ and Christus Victor theology. 

Some side trails in this episode. . . 

- the angelic fight for Moses' body (Jude 1:9) 

- positive self talk vs. speaking reality into existence 

- Aslan and the cracking of the Stone Table

We hope you'll join us On the Trail!

In this episode we finish our discussion about how to tame the amygdala and return to joy when we find ourselves trapped in one of the big six negative emotions.

We are wrapping up our series on the acrostic SOUL-L, which looks at five common areas where the devil claims ground in our lives and how to reclaim that surrendered ground.

Today’s episode addresses lineage. Sometimes the enemy has permission to work in our lives because of the doors our ancestors opened to him. Sin has generational consequences. 

What does this mean from a biblical and spiritual warfare perspective? How do you protect yourself and future generations? 

With that in mind, in this On the Trail episode, we discuss Building Bounce Chapter Four: Quieting, where we unpack tools such as the acrostics B.E.S.T. for quieting your body and D.R.E.A.M. for quieting your mind, plus we discuss four triggers for anxiety, God's design for rhythms of rest, and more. 

Thank you for joining us – father-daughter duo Marcus Warner and Stephanie Warner – on the trail to a deeper walk with God!

Listen in on conversations about important models and concepts that inform the way we live the Christian life. We talk philosophy, theology, and practical issues related to heart-focused discipleship. This podcast is presented by Deeper Walk International. 

The Kingdom teaches us how to see reality, God, and ourselves as God sees.

The Kosmos teaches us via the world, the flesh, and the devil working together to give us an identity and affect what we believe. 

In Part 2 of the Identity Series, we unpack how the enemy uses the world and the flesh together to trap us in pecking order systems and comparison games.

Using wounds and lies, the enemy wants to shape our beliefs about ourselves and about God to warp our self-perception. 

We'll also spend a little time setting up the Kingdom identity that God has for us and then will dig into that New Covenant identity more in Part 3 next week. 

This compilation episode covers Season 1, Episodes 61-64.

Many breakthrough strategies have to deal with beliefs at one level or another. For the next three episodes, we'll be looking at this engine of the Breakthrough Model. 

This week is all about the power of beliefs to drive our emotions and behavior. Sometimes we can't even picture what doing something looks like, and that keeps us stuck from moving forward. Sometimes our thought life is plagued by negative thinking, and that keeps us stuck.

How we think and what we believe shapes how we interact with others in many ways.

In Part 4 of the Identity Series, we wrap up this compiled topic with the role of Community in our identity formation and a review of our Gospel Identity. 

How does community bring the two sides of the brain together? How can we resist mistaking our malfunctions for our identity? Community is key to answer the question, "Who am I, and how is it like me to be?" 

One of the devil's core strategies is to take us out of the battle by lying to us about our true identity so we live as less than we are. Our Gospel Identity is not just a ticket to Heaven, but it is also the foundation of discipleship. 

As we wrap up the Identity series, we're reviewing how all this fits together in the heart-focused discipleship model F.I.S.H. +M.

On the Trail Podcast: Season 3, Episode 15

So often our discipleship solutions are designed for adults and do not take into consideration the actual maturity of the people being discipled. Would you expect a child to have the same prayer skills as a grandparent? Whether we're talking physical or emotional maturity, or for how long we've known Christ, walking with God is not a one-size-fits-all experience. In Part Two of our Listen to the Spirit series, we're looking at S.L.O.W., prayer, and how maturity interacts with our walk.

Join us on the trail.

God is the definer of my identity. Because of this, any hole in my sense of identity is also a hole in my view of God, and any hole in my view of God is going to affect how I see myself. 

When we need a breakthrough in the area of beliefs, it's probably related to a lie we're believing. So, this week, we're also looking at two kinds of deception: bold lies and hiding elements of truth. 

Sometimes deception is an outright lie that needs to be identified and replaced. Sometimes we believe lies because we know some facts but not others.

We lean into this concept of subjugation of the enemy and its implications for spiritual warfare, while also acknowledging the already-not-yet nature of the kingdom of God. Because of the atonement, we can have not only greater intimacy with God but also freedom from the enemy's enslavement.

We talk philosophy, theology, and practical issues related to heart-focused discipleship.

In this episode, we're starting a 4-part series on practical spiritual warfare following a NEW acrostic: S.O.N.G. (Stephanie encourages you to "Whistle while you warfare.") At Deeper Walk, we teach a "no drama," legal approach to spiritual warfare. So, when you've recognized you're having a spiritual warfare issue, the first step is to 'Stop giving permission.'

How do you recognize your spiritual warfare issues? For some it's blatantly obvious, but for many it may be as subtle as an unshakeable sense of hopelessness. What are common things that give the demonic permission to a place in our lives? Beyond S.O.U.L.L. (which we frequently work through on the podcast), we also touch on other areas like giving into fear or idolatry. Finally, is it R.E.D.? How to stop giving permission when the occult is involved.

The incarnation paved the way for Jesus Christ to become our High Priest, so we can approach God boldly and find the mercy and grace we need. What does it mean for Jesus Christ to be our High Priest? (And who was Melchizedek?) We discuss this and more in today’s episode.

The Kosmos involves the world, the flesh, and the devil working together to give us an identity.

In this episode, we begin unpacking the Kosmos with a look at how the world and the flesh conspire to trap us in pecking order systems and comparison games. 

In this episode, we're continuing a 4-part series on practical spiritual warfare following a NEW acrostic: S.O.N.G. (Stephanie encourages you to "Whistle while you warfare.") At Deeper Walk, we teach a "no drama," legal approach to spiritual warfare.

So, after you've removed the permission the enemy is claiming to a place in your life and used your authority in Christ to "oust the enemy," it's time to walk out your repentance and nurture new habits. 

Repentance is more than the decision to renounce something but also the follow-through of walking that decision out. This often involves cultivating and nurturing new habits. What are some strategies for walking out our repentance with hope?

In this series, we look at listening prayer and inner healing. 

What is listening prayer and what is it not? This conversation focuses on prayer at the lifestyle level and then on R.E.A.L. prayer at the healing level. How do we invite Jesus into our emotional healing, and what do we do if we encounter obstacles in this process?  

Whether you are a prayer minister or you are working on your own emotional healing, there are common obstacles that can get in the way. This episode will deal with some of the common obstacles that keep us from connecting with God. 

 This compilation episode covers Season 1, Episodes 36-38.

If your brain isn't running on its preferred fuel—joy, it will default to fear. Last episode we started looking at the relational infrastructure of our brains. This week we're looking at Fear vs. Joy Bonds through the lens of fear-based attachment styles.

What's Your Attachment Style (fear edition)?

Our friends at Life Model have identified three core types of fear bonds: 

• Dismissive Attachment 
• Distracted Attachment 
• Disorganized Attachment

If you want to go deeper on each style, check out Maribeth Poole's blog posts at DeeperWalk.com/blog. 

And we won't leave you hanging in the fear talk. If your brain is defaulting to fear, there's a fix for that, and we'll walk you through that too. (It's as easy to remember as J.O.B.S.)

In this episode, we delve into the topic of spiritual warfare, exploring its biblical foundations, starting with the concept of the divine council. We discuss the significance of the throne room of God, the legal framework surrounding spiritual warfare, and the importance of justice, accountability, and relationships in Heaven. We highlight the role of permission in spiritual warfare and why it's all important and practical for our everyday lives as Christians.

If our brains run on relational joy, it's probably a good idea to know more about our relational attachments, our joy bonds. How can we increase our joy bonds and retrain our brains from defaulting to fearful attachments?

In this week's episode, we're covering the Joy Elevator of the brain.

"Order" is about the arrangement within a passage and within its larger text.

"Repetition" is about recognizing the strategic recurrence of words, concepts, locations, and more that serve to highlight both what is important in the text and also can point to structure.

"Introductions" (+ Conclusions) often hold direct messages from the author explaining the meaning of the unfolding text. We also end on a prayerful note in light of tumultuous current events. Please pray with us, seek God's face, and take courage.

In this episode, we're closing our 4-part series on practical spiritual warfare.

So you've removed the enemy's claim on a part of your life, ousted him from your land, and begun nurturing new habits to reclaim that area of your life and walk in repentance. What are some strategies for guarding the ground you've just reclaimed — or keeping the enemy from claiming a foothold in the first place(!)?  

We'll be covering topics from walking in the Spirit and the importance of community to answering such questions as... Why couldn't the occultist's spirit guide come to dinner? Did the former owners of this house give ground to the enemy? And more.

Join us on the trail!

We spent last week calling out the devil's lies and strategies for warping our self-perception. 

Like tearing down our fear house and building a joy house, let us tear down our Kosmos identity and live from our Kingdom identity. (If you missed "Joy vs. Fear House," find it here.) 

In Part 3 of the Identity Series, we unpack four keys to understanding our New Covenant identity in Christ.

In Christ, we are Pardoned by God, Adopted by God, made a Citizen of the Kingdom of God, and given a new Title: Saint. 

How do these truths about our identity affect our lives when we truly believe them? 

This compilation episode covers Season 1, Episodes 65-68.

In this week's episode, we're going over five main areas where people—including Christians!—give the demonic permission to claim a foothold in our lives. We remember these five areas with the acrostic SOUL-L: Sin, Occult, Unforgiveness, Lies we believe, and Lineage. Next week we'll be looking at how to remove permissions and evict the enemy.

In Egypt, we see them in a world of perpetual crisis and in need of salvation. In the Exodus, we see God get them through the tunnel of chaos. In the wilderness, we see them enroll in boot camp to tear down their old identity and learn their new one. And in Canaan we see them building maturity and living out of freedom. 

As we wrap up our final episode of the Lessons from the Wilderness Series, we hope you’ll join us on the trail! 

P.S. After this week, the podcast will be entering Sabbatical mode for the rest of the summer.

Hit the wrong button, and negative emotions erupt inside. Or perhaps you've seen this in a loved one and find yourself in a "button dance" to avoid pressing each other's buttons. 

In this episode, we're looking at the relationship between beliefs and wounds. When our hearts are wounded, it's easy to believe lies that take root and shape our values and behaviors. 

Oftentimes those wounds aren't pervasive but are like pockets of pain that can be ignited like powder kegs in our heart.

No matter the size of the wound or the frequency of the trigger, we want to identify and uproot those false beliefs and replace them with God's truth in order to find breakthrough.

You'll learn what editorial comments are and how they open doors to understanding the biblical text. You will also discover how recognizing subtle (and not so subtle) shifts in the author's writing helps us move toward our goal of uncovering the author's intended message.

Stay On the Trail toward a Deeper Walk with God with father-daughter duo Marcus & Stephanie Warner. Listen in on conversations about important models and concepts that inform the way we live the Christian life. We talk philosophy, theology, and practical issues related to heart-focused discipleship.

We are in the midst of looking at five main areas where the devil claims ground in our lives. The goal is to help us know where to revoke permissions and use our authority to reclaim that surrendered ground. These five areas can be remembered with the acrostic SOUL-L.

In today's episode we are looking at the "O" - occult. How do we recognize it? How do we deal with it?

This is a big topic, but we've got some principles, some stories, and, of course, an acrostic for you.

So much of our sense of identity is formed faster than conscious thought. Do we have to just deal with what we're given, or do we have agency in our identity and maturity formation?

This week we're bringing together brain science and biblical identity formation, talking about finding our heart values, building a tower of truth, and more.

While Marcus is on Sabbatical, we are revisiting prior series in compilation episodes. This week we're coming back to the F.I.S.H. model. This series introduces the whole-brained, heart-focused discipleship model known as “FISH and Go FISH.” 

Based on this ministry’s flagship book, A Deeper Walk, the FISH series walks through the gospel’s four essentials: freedom, identity, Spirit, and heart-focused community and what it looks like to walk it out on mission. 

The series as a whole is 10 episodes, so we're giving you the first 5 now, and you'll get Part 2 next week. This compilation covers Season 1, Episodes 7-11.

This episode is all about the relationship between personal maturity and effective parenting. In it, we give a brief overview of the five stages of maturity development according to The Life Model and how God designed us to grow and relate to one another. 

Infants need smiles, security, and synchronization to develop emotional stability. Children need to cultivate discernment and discipline to carry into adulthood. With hope and grace for you, we're covering these thoughts and more.

In this episode, we discuss the WHY of Bible study, the role of the Holy Spirit, and how this all fits into heart-focused discipleship. We emphasize the need for understanding the author's intended message, and, to get you started with your study, we look at the significance of genre, selection, and arrangement for how an author puts the text together.

We also highlight personal experiences and breakthroughs that come from engaging deeply with the Bible, encouraging you to become 'Bible study detectives' in your own study.

When people are in search of a breakthrough, it's usually at one of three levels of need, and each need has its own solution:

• LEVEL 1: Relieve pain by focusing on symptoms. 
• LEVEL 2: Repair damage by focusing on root issues. 
• LEVEL 3: Rebuild maturity by focusing on new habits.

Once we have this framework, it is crucial to realize that the breakthrough we need might be in a different area than where we're looking. We outline a rubric of these five engines that drive our emotions (three physical, two spiritual):

• ENGINE 1: Be aware of your body.
• ENGINE 2: Unleash your beliefs. 
• ENGINE 3: Increase your joy bonds.
• ENGINE 4: Listen to the Spirit.  
• ENGINE 5: Defeat demons.

This is a key episode for building the framework for the rest of the series.

From Genesis 1 onward, God has shown us His purposes for bringing order and fullness to our lives.

In this compilation, we're revisiting the Advent & Incarnation series. (Stephanie says it's never the wrong time of year to celebrate the incarnation of Jesus Christ.) 

But more than the Christmas season, we're looking at God's heart and plans for the redemption story He's telling, our ability to approach God boldly because of Jesus our High Priest, the conversational relationship He desires to have with us, and how to recognize His invitation to share joy with Him. 

This compilation episode covers Season 1, Episodes 75-78. 

Join us on the trail! 

P.S. A couple quick fact checks for this series from Stephanie: 

• Dad gave a casual etymology of the word incarnation. I’m not going to flesh out a whole etymology for you here (ha, pun intended?), but if you’re interested… He said carne was the Latin for “flesh,” and we didn’t make it clear that “carne” is the Spanish derivative of the Latin root. So, to keep it simple – in Latin, caro and carnis are the words for “flesh.” (Coincidentally, the ablative singular of both of these words is carne, but there you have it…) 
• We had joy on the brain. Dad said the final Advent candle is always Joy in every tradition, but then corrected and said it is the Christ candle (which is what I had in mind as “final” - the central candle. But we skipped over the 4th “final”). From what I understand, Joy is usually the third candle, but the themes can vary depending on tradition.

(Fear not, for those of you who are walking the single road or for whom "marriage and family" may be complicated... I, Stephanie, am single, and I have thoughts about why this topic is still for you/us.)

In today's episode, we're covering such questions as...

🏕️ What is walking in the flesh vs. walking in the Spirit? 

🏕️ How can we recognize when we are walking in the flesh? 

🏕️ What's a tool we can use to cultivate a lifestyle of walking in the Spirit? 

🏕️ How can all of this apply to our home life? 

Seriously, friends, this book is underrated, and I’m so excited to offer a series you can use as a book study in the new year.

Whether you read along with a book buddy or gather with a group, we've got a DIY Book Club Kit for you! You'll find it in the links below.

Also, no worries if it's not great timing for you to spontaneously launch a whole book study. We get it. The goal of this series is to give you a free resource to return to when you're ready to pick up the book, but it's still the Father-Daughter conversation you've come to expect.

In this episode, we continue our book study with Chapter Two: The Flesh-Filled Home exploring the characteristics of homes that walk more by the flesh than by the Spirit, the nature of conflict, and the importance of emotional capacity. We call out three A's of immaturity—avoidance, anger, and addiction—and highlight the need for self-reflection, tiny habits, and seeking help along the journey of personal growth. 

In today's episode, we cover such questions as... 

🏕️ What are indicators of a flesh-filled home? 

🏕️ Can I choose to have spiritual maturity or emotional capacity? 

🏕️ What does it look like to grow capacity? 

Whether you read along with a book buddy or gather with a group, we've got a DIY Book Club Kit for you (link below)! 

Also, no worries if it's not great timing for you to spontaneously launch a whole book study. We get it. The goal of this series is to give you a free resource to return to when you're ready to pick up the book, but it's still the Father-Daughter conversation you've come to expect.

Have you ever wondered how people pray for hours not just minutes?  

Next in our Jumpstart Your Prayer Life series, we're looking at The Two Notebook Approach as a means of being intentional and focused in conversational prayer with God. This approach was inspired by Marcus's contemplations on John C. Maxwell's Partners in Prayer and Neil T. Anderson's Liberating Prayer, and, yes, he's got an acrostic for you! 

Our goal with this series is to encourage you to deepen your prayer life and explore various approaches to your relationship with God. By the end of this series, we'll have walked through three approaches to your prayer time that we hope you find impactful and refreshing. You can start practicing now with the free "Listening Prayer Starter Kit" (linked).

We talk philosophy, theology, and practical issues related to heart-focused discipleship. This podcast is presented by Deeper Walk International. 

Jesus Christ was never bolder or more clear about His true identity than in the final days before His death on the cross.

He loves us enough to get in our face and call us out when we are on a path that is heading to destruction. The words and actions of Jesus may seem harsh, but in reality they were loving. 

Jesus was the king of tough love. But tough love isn’t for the tender-hearted who desperately want to please the Father. Tough love is for the hard-hearted who need to be broken before it’s too late.

Listen in on conversations about important models and concepts that inform the way we live the Christian life. We talk philosophy, theology, and practical issues related to heart-focused discipleship. This podcast is presented by Deeper Walk International. 

In this compilation series, we contrast the occult with the Kingdom, specifically regarding the involvement of spirits in the world and the roles of power and authority.

• Power can be defined as the ability to make things happen.
• Authority can be defined as the right to represent power.

At the start we look at the nature of the occult, ways it’s being normalized, and how to think about it both critically and relationally so that we develop discernment rather than legalism. 

And then we dig into a legal understanding of spiritual warfare and practical applications of our authority in Christ. 

This compilation episode covers Season 1, Episodes 71-74.

In this episode, we're looking at the significance of the incarnation of Jesus Christ. How does Jesus' life, death, resurrection, and ascension relate to spiritual warfare and the authority believers have in Christ? 

Through Jesus' incarnation, we see God give a profound answer to the question of suffering, illustrating how Jesus fully entered into human pain, rejection, and death. We see Him confusing and defeating demons, speaking truth, calling us to repentance, and ultimately ushering in a new era of resurrected hope and life. 

As we consider His victory in action, we encourage you to reflect on how the incarnation deepens our understanding of God's love.

On the Trail Podcast: Season 3, Episode 22

How did God design our brain to form our sense of identity?

In a new microseries, we're talking about our neurotheological identity. Our primary goal this episode is to understand that our brains operate not only at the speed of conscious thought but also faster than conscious thought. How does this "fast track" of the brain affect our identity formation?

The answer may be more nuanced than you expect. In this episode, we're discussing the complexities of Halloween from a Christian perspective, focusing on spiritual warfare, the occult, and how families can engage with the holiday wisely.

We touch on historical context, awareness of heightened fear and occult practices, and the need to walk in the Spirit and not in the flesh as you decide your approach to the season.

Stay On the Trail toward a Deeper Walk with God with father-daughter duo Marcus & Stephanie Warner. Listen in on conversations about important models and concepts that inform the way we live the Christian life. We talk philosophy, theology, and practical issues related to heart-focused discipleship.

We walk through the WLVS model, which stands for Wounds, Lies, Vows, and Strongholds, and how important it is to address deeper emotional issues that often underlie surface-level problems in relationships. Understanding these issues working below the surface helps us foster healthier relationships and cultivate a Spirit-filled home. 
 
The episode introduces practical tools for healing, including the 'real prayer' process, which encourages listeners to engage in listening prayer to identify and explore their wounds. Our discussion also touches on the necessity of setting loving boundaries in relationships to rebuild trust and create a safe environment for emotional healing.

Our brains are designed to run on the fuel of joy, but they can default to fear. In their book The 4 Habits of Joy-Filled People, Marcus Warner and Chris Coursey talk about building an internal joy house.

Part of building a joy house is tearing down the fear house that so many of us have built up throughout our lives. Fear and joy bonds are not an all-or-nothing experience but are very connected to our attachments, emotional capacity, and maturity.  

A joy-filled life is possible. Let’s talk about how to cultivate one.

Do you ever find yourself rummaging in the kitchen for something, but you don't know what?

Has someone ever given you good advice, but the emotional weight you are feeling won't go away? 

These are just two mild indicators that your joy elevator might be stuck in some pain that needs to be processed.  

In order for suffering to keep from becoming traumatic, our brains need to process the pain at all five levels of the pain processing pathway: 

1. attachment 
2. assessment 
3. attunement 
4. action
5. narrative

When the joy elevator in our brain gets stuck and our pain isn't able to process through its needed path, it is helpful to recognize at which floor of the brain the elevator jammed.  

In this series, we unpack the joy elevator and the pain processing pathway. 

This compilation episode covers Season 1, Episodes 53-56. 

P.S. The "pain processing pathway" is a concept you can learn more about in Dr. Karl Lehman's book Outsmarting Yourself.

In this series, we are exploring five areas where we often need a breakthrough. The first of these five engines that drive our emotions is the body. 

This engine functions like a two-way street. Sometimes emotions affect our body. Sometimes our body affects our emotions. 

If we have a physical issue, we probably need a physical solution. Maybe this involves diet and exercise, maybe medication, maybe surgery, and more. 

In today's episode, we begin our look at Engine One and the importance of being aware of our body.

God designed us for joyful attachments—and that includes with HIM!

This week we're focusing on how understanding joy and fear bonds can help us both with our biblical interpretations and our personal walks with God. 

• What are common metaphors for attachment in the Bible?
• Why is idolatry such a big deal in the Bible?
• What are some strategies for building a joy bond with God?

We'll talk about this and more!

Last week we began a new series on prayer. This week we continue exploring the theological dynamics of approaching God as King, Father, and Shepherd while also discussing an overview of the 5 Levels of Prayer in harmony with the Life Model stages of maturity. From infancy to our elder years, we have expanding capcacity to engage in prayer on our own and in community. 

Our goal with this series is to encourage you to deepen your prayer life and explore various approaches to your relationship with God. By the end of this series, we'll have walked through three approaches to your prayer time that we hope you find impactful and refreshing.

For Advent, we’re looking at the Abrahamic Covenant of Promise. Last week we introduced this covenant and looked at the Hope of the Promise. This week on the Advent calendar is about Peace, and we’re dwelling specifically on the promise of land. 

Through this conversation, we see a sort of formula emerge: meditation on God’s provision plus meditation on what is eternal brings peace. We can remember this with three Ps: Provision, Permanence, and Peace.

From the opening verses of Scripture, the Holy Spirit is there bringing life, power, and wisdom. He is the Spirit of Life (Romans 8:2) and the Helper Christ said the Father would send us (John 14:26). 

Throughout Scripture, two common actions associated with the Holy Spirit are anointing and filling. He anoints with power, and He fills with wisdom. We cover this and more in today’s episode.

Pharaoh asks. Yahweh answers. 

In this episode, we discuss the “Ten Plagues” narrative, throughout which God reiterates ‘so that they may know I am Yahweh.’ 

We look at the very intentional structure of the signs and dwell on some practical heart lessons about who God is and how we can trust Him. 

Just because we experience the chaos does not mean God is callous or winging it. He cares. He is meticulous, and He has a plan. We can face deep struggle alongside God and know that He will see us through it. 

As we press deeper into the knowledge of who God is and how He cares for us, we hope you’ll join us on the trail!

As Christians, we want to see reality as God sees it. 

In this compilation of the Kingdom Worldview series, we revisit a Kingdom theology, how to be a Kingdom people, and the three pillars of Sacred Romance, Sovereign Lordship, and Spiritual Warfare. 

Understanding that God is love, God is sovereign, and this world is at war are three fundamental pillars to understanding reality through the lens of the Kingdom of God.

Why the Mountain? 

• It is a place of encounter, where the people of Israel see and experience God.  
• It is a place of relationship, where the people and God enter into a covenant together, like a marriage.  
• It is a place of learning new rhythms & skills – camp life, religious habits, and more. 

Throughout the Old and New Testaments, we see people drawn to “the Mountain” to meet with God. It is an invitation to intimacy. 

As we continue deeper into the understanding of how God heals and transforms us, we hope you’ll join us on the trail!

Alas, something tragic happens before they break camp. It’s not fun to look at the hard things, but in today’s episode, we’re looking at the incident of the Golden Calf. 

The Golden Calf was a direct contradiction to everything God had been teaching them thus far—the freedom, the covenant, the Tabernacle, etc. There are natural and necessary consequences that follow this incident. It gets a little scary, a little intense. 

But in the end we see that God’s purposes stand. He’s going to get the people as a whole to the promised land. He is a God of justice and compassion, and He invites relationship and intercession. 

We invite you to us on the trail!

It's time for a new series that will help you jumpstart your prayer life. We like to put things into context, so we're launching with a practical overview of the theology of prayer. How does God's soveignty interact with our prayers? How do fear and joy affect our prayer life? Is God a just king? Does God want to talk to us when we're less than perfect? 

This episode covers these big picture questions. By the end of this series, we'll have walked through three approaches to your prayer time that we hope you find helpful and refreshing. You can start practicing now with the free "Listening Prayer Starter Kit" pdf in a link below.

Stay On the Trail toward a Deeper Walk with God with father-daughter duo Marcus Warner & Stephanie Warner. Listen in on conversations about important models and concepts that inform the way we live the Christian life. We talk philosophy, theology, and practical issues related to heart-focused discipleship. This podcast is presented by Deeper Walk International. 

Our Messiah—our King—is one to whom we swear allegiance because we trust Him. To be saved by faith is not just accepting the gift of eternal life. It is trusting Jesus Christ enough to follow Him and obey even when we don’t understand where He is taking us and why the journey is so hard. 

This doesn’t mean we have no doubts or that we need to have perfect faith before we can be saved. It means that, despite our doubts, we affirm the ancient declaration: “Jesus Christ is Lord.”

For the next three episodes, we'll be lingering in the Easter season with thoughts on Jesus the King, the nature of "tough love" and how Jesus wielded it during Holy Week, and the incredible exchange that He offers through His death and resurrection. If you want to sit with some of these thoughts, you can find three related blog posts at Deeper Walk's website (linked). 

Join us as we explore the significance of the Easter season, delving into Jesus' kingship, the rejection He faced, and what allegiance to King Jesus means for us today.

Stay On the Trail toward a Deeper Walk with God with father-daughter duo Marcus Warner & Stephanie Warner. Listen in on conversations about important models and concepts that inform the way we live the Christian life. We talk philosophy, theology, and practical issues related to heart-focused discipleship. This podcast is presented by Deeper Walk International. 

How does the devil want you to see your situation? How does God want you to see your situation? 

To close our Jumpstart Your Prayer Life series, we're looking at The Word Picture Approach as a means of exposing the devil's lies and attuning to God's perspective. This approach was inspired by friend and former Deeper Walk board member Daryl Anderson, and we have found it so helpful throughout our years of ministry. The Word Picture Approach is a useful tool for personal reflection when seeking God and when praying with others. 

Our goal with this series is to encourage you to deepen your prayer life and explore various approaches to your relationship with God. Throughout this series, we have walked through three approaches to your prayer time that we hope you find useful and refreshing. You can start practicing with the free "Listening Prayer Starter Kit" (linked).

On the Trail Podcast: Season 3, Episode 17

The devil isn't a bumble bee. Leaving him alone doesn't mean he leaves us alone. In this episode we're starting the "Defeat Demons" topic within the Breakthrough series. We'll give a basic legal understanding for spiritual warfare, looking at the roles of permission and authority. We're also asking how demons can affect our bodies, our minds, our interpersonal relationships and emotions? If you're reading along with us in Breakthrough!, check out chapter ten.

Join us on the trail.

P.S. At Deeper Walk, we have many resources about spiritual warfare. If you want to go deeper, check out the free Spiritual Warfare Conference with guests Neil Anderson, Karl Payne, Judy Dunagan, and Juni Felix at DeeperWalk.com/free.

We quiet our minds by replacing toxic thinking with good thinking. We quiet our bodies by changing our body chemistry and calming our amygdala. 

In this week's episode, we're looking at four practices that can help us quiet our body when we feel stressed. 

We can remember these as B.E.S.T. practices for quieting: 

• Breathe in a box [inhale, hold, exhale, hold - repeat]. 
• Exaggerate emotions. 
• Soothe the senses. 
• Tense your muscles, and then relax them. 

If you’re following along in the book, check out chapter six in Breakthrough!.

To continue this Breakthrough! series, we're talking about our God-given identity and maturity development by looking at three keys of brain function and five levels of maturity. 

For instance, the brain craves the fuel of ____. (If you filled in the blank with “JOY,” you may have listened to our series on joy. If not, check out this compilation of that series.) How do the brain's need for joy, its right-to-left functionality, and the four levels of the joy elevator shape us? 

We’re also looking at the five levels of maturity as named by our friends at Life Model Works. How do we recognize an emotional infant, child, adult, parent, and elder? And is there hope for gaps and holes? 

Join us on the trail!

Growth models are crucial because they determine which solutions we believe are essential to transformation. 

What are some of the common ones we turn to, and what is the growth model that will truly increase our breakthroughs and grow us into the people God designed and calls us to be?

God is not waiting at the top of the mountain for us to get our act together and come up to Him. He is coming straight into the center of our mess to journey with us. 

In many ways, all of the amazing things God has done during the Exodus event has been to bring His people to this moment: the Tabernacle. It’s a place of intimacy at the center of His people that is mobile and ready for the journey. 

God’s incarnational purposes are made known from Genesis to Revelation, and this Tabernacle Theology is a beautiful picture of His desire to be in an active, tangible, walking relationship with His people.

He is right there in the center of our brokenness, giving provision for being in His presence despite the juxtaposition of His purity and our uncleanness. 

Join us on the trail as we continue deeper into an understanding of walking with God!

At Deeper Walk, our mission is to make Heart-Focused Discipleship the norm for Christians everywhere. What is heart-focused discipleship and why is it so important? 

In today’s episode, we are looking at this keyword – heart – with an Old and New Testament understanding. 

We hope you’ll join us on the trail! 

In this episode, we press into the heavy beginning of the Exodus story. The people of Israel are groaning under ruthless oppression, but God hears them and takes action. 

God always has a plan, and He is not afraid of chaos. 

The story of Exodus contains many lessons and symbols. Some include parallels of the deep pain that launches a healing journey and parallels we see in the Gospel (e.g., Pharaoh as a symbol of sin, Slavery as a symbol of bondage to sin). 

As we press further in to this epic Bible account, we hope you’ll join us on the trail! 

As we enter the Advent season, we’re turning our attention to the Incarnation of Christ and God’s heart and plans for this redemption story. In this episode, we specifically look at the pattern of forming and filling seen in Genesis 1. 

Also! New things are coming in 2024! WE’RE TAKING A BREAK not only over Christmas but also at the start of the new year, and we’ll be coming back with the same podcast you love but with *more.* Stay tuned to Stephanie’s Monday emails and Deeper Walk’s social media for updates. 

Our brains work from right to left, from attachment to beliefs. As we embark into this identity series, we begin with an understanding of how attachment affects our identity.

In this episode, we look at Scripture and brain science, digging into the fascinating idea of how the brain forms its perception of self through three faces. 

God designed us to know ourselves based on relational identity. Isn’t that amazing? 

Whether conscious of it or not, most of us live out of an inner world of fear or joy. Last episode we talked about tearing down that inner fear house.

In this episode, we are talking about building an inner joy house. Building a joy house can also be thought of as growing resilience.

This episode recaps the ABCs of Building Bounce and introduces an overview of the acrostic from The 4 Habits of Joy-Filled People - CASA: calming, appreciating, storytelling, and attacking toxic thinking. 

In this episode, we explore some of the theology and neuroscience of prayer. How did God wire us for relationship, and how can we see that reflected in our prayer life?  

Our goal with this series is to encourage you to deepen your prayer life and explore various approaches to your relationship with God. By the end of this series, we'll have walked through three approaches to your prayer time that we hope you find impactful and refreshing. You can start practicing now with the free "Listening Prayer Starter Kit" in a link below. 

Discover how understanding the brain's design for relationship can transform your prayer life.

Listen in on conversations about important models and concepts that inform the way we live the Christian life. We talk philosophy, theology, and practical issues related to heart-focused discipleship. This podcast is presented by Deeper Walk International. 

God has designed our brains to run on the fuel of joy, and joy is what is crucial to resilience. So, understanding how God designed our brains to operate helps us understand what we should develop in order to be as resilient as possible. 

With that in mind, in this On the Trail episode, we discuss Building Bounce Chapter Three: A Basic Brain Model, where we unpack the Joy Elevator and the Narrative Engine to get context and clarity as we press deeper into developing emotional capacity.

Stay On the Trail toward a Deeper Walk with God with father-daughter duo Marcus Warner & Stephanie Warner. Listen in on conversations about important models and concepts that inform the way we live the Christian life. We talk philosophy, theology, and practical issues related to heart-focused discipleship. This podcast is presented by Deeper Walk International. 

In the first week of Advent, we anticipate celebrating the incarnation with Hope. This year, we're looking at Advent through the lens of the Abrahamic Covenant of Promise. This promise made to Abraham encompasses seed (offspring), land, and relationship with God, and through the crux of the promise that "all nations will be blessed through you" we see the promise of Christ (Gen 22:18; Gal 3:8).

What is the biblical understanding of "promise" and "hope"? What blessings did God promise to and through Abraham? How can we put this understanding of Hope into practice as we meditate on and celebrate the Advent season?

The enemy often attacks our hope during times of waiting. Through this study of Abraham's Covenant, we see the importance of faithfulness during such times and offer some strategies and a prayer for cultivating hope in the midst of challenges. May this Advent season be one of heart-focused, deeper connection with God and others!

Stay On the Trail toward a Deeper Walk with God with father-daughter duo Marcus & Stephanie Warner. Listen in on conversations about important models and concepts that inform the way we live the Christian life. We talk philosophy, theology, and practical issues related to heart-focused discipleship.

What does Christ's authority look like over it all? We also discuss the significance of idolatry, the nature of evil, and the role of evangelism as a form of spiritual warfare. The good news is that Jesus Christ is victorious over the darkness, and believers do not need to be afraid to engage in spiritual warfare with confidence.

With that in mind, in this On the Trail episode, we discuss Building Bounce Chapter Five: Appreciation, where we unpack the joy-building tool G.A.M.E.S. for practicing appreciation, plus we dwell on the relational connection appreciation builds with God. G.A.M.E.S. stands for Gratitude (appreciation in the present), Anticipation (appreciation for the future), Memories (appreciation for the past), Experiences, and Singing.

In this episode, we're continuing a 4-part series on practical spiritual warfare following a NEW acrostic: S.O.N.G. (Stephanie encourages you to "Whistle while you warfare.") At Deeper Walk, we teach a "no drama," legal approach to spiritual warfare. So, after you've removed the permission the enemy is claiming to a place in your life, it's time to use your authority in Christ to "oust the enemy."

How do you kick the enemy out of your life? How do you help others? How do you deal with curses sent against you? We touch on all this and more in today's episode.

Join us on the trail!
