Kyle is a world-class bassist (Katy Perry, Kelly Clarkson, The Voice, LeAnn Rimes, and SO many other artists), an Ultra Runner (watch his documentary here).

He's a dad of three, a husband to one, and he's one of my favourite people and dearest friends. This one goes all over the place in the best ways, and I absolutely LOVE it.This is a great chat. I'm so grateful we got the chance to sit down together and have it. Enjoy!

This episode is about what I’ve been learning—not through visions or breakthroughs, but through heat, cracked sidewalks, dead snakes, and the wonder of the incarnation.

Their profound ideas still offer wisdom for us today. In this episode, we explore another profound word and idea from the Hebrew creation story found in Genesis 1. This is another part in the Earth and Skies series.

That’s where the story ends, but it begins with tohu va-vohu - an unproductive, disordered, and chaotic landscape. This desolate beginning point provides the raw materials the Divine uses to bring about something beneficial and good (and he can do the same for you).

We encounter hundreds of opportunities every day to be offended. A dominant reason we get offended is because our preferences and ideals aren’t being met by the person in front of us. While we could continue to resist this person, this experience and remain frustrated, ultimately it cost us our joy, peace, and freedom. So, instead of resisting, what if we learned to WELCOME them instead?
