 In 2026, the reality is this: people are juggling more than ever — career, relationships, family, health, finances, faith, and personal growth. Each role demands time and energy, and often they compete with one another. When one area improves, another can feel neglected. The truth is, doing everything well at the same time is impossible. So the question becomes:
Is it really possible to find balance? What should we prioritize? And can we live with the decisions we make? Jonathan takes us to a powerful passage that centers on three revealing words: Concerned, Worried, and Upset. Through this lens, he challenges listeners to examine where their focus truly lies. Are we overwhelmed by what feels urgent? Distracted by what doesn’t matter most? Or anxious about things beyond our control? Tune in and discover the direction he leads us — and consider for yourself: did the message change how you think about balance? The passage for inspiration is Luke 10:38-42 NLT

The Truth Of The Matter is Episode 198 The Space Between Or Walking the Middle Path (Balance)

  After a three-month break to tend to personal and business matters, Johnathan returns with a message that may seem subtle to many—but is essential for every Bible reader. As students of Scripture, we can sometimes take certain texts for granted, overlooking the patterns, structure, and intentional teaching methods Jesus used to reach not only His immediate audience, but future generations as well. Once these elements are recognized, an important question emerges: why is this intention so often overlooked—and why isn’t it modeled today? My prayer is that this message blesses you and opens your eyes to see Jesus teaching methodically, with purpose and divine intention.

The Truth of The Matter is Episode 196  Rejecting Christ Leads to? 

Bible study reflection solo or with friends is an inspirational segment. It started by getting together for bible study with friends Erik and Jennifer and still having more to say. Thus far, the segment has been about unpacking different passages of scripture read in bible study and still feeling the need to explore things more deeply. A couple weeks ago I had an in depth conversation with two friends. One is a Doctor and the other is a lawyer and we were talking about the pursuit of occupational dreams. In this episode the conversation is about seeing the practicality in biblical text. Tune to see if you agree.

The Truth Of The Matter Is - Episode: 195 Bible Study Reflection Solo or W/Friends Biblical Practicality (the pursuit of occupational dreams.)

 There comes a time when you read the scriptures that you are going to have more questions than answers. Does that mean you should be concerned? No. Here's why: what makes the Word of God interesting and such a mystery is that it will leave you with the opportunity to search for those answers. It will give you the opportunity to get on your knees and ask God for his to reveal things to you. Matthews 7:7 NLT says, Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you.” So if you don't receive an answer at first, give it time. This episode was inspired by a Bible study I had with a friend. Yes this could have easily been a Bible reflection solo or with friends but this conversation made me go back and revisit the text and learn something I might have missed with deeper insight. I love the practice of thinking deeply and that's exactly what this passage did for me so I share it with you today. The text was Matthew 2:1-2 inspired by Bible study. Hope you enjoy!

 “The truth of the matter is” podcast is all about providing an honest, contextual, historicized, Philosophical and Psychological view of the Bible through the use of Hermeneutics, while sharing some personal experiences from myself, Daniel and on occasion our special guest. We believe in sharing practical ways of applying God’s word to everyday life. Today I spoke with the first ever christian couple that appeared together on the show. It was an honor and privilege to speak to them both. Learning how they are different and also how they complement one another is something I believe we can learn from their marriage of 55 years so having them on was a treat. Tune in and see if you agree!

The Truth Of The Matter is Episode 192 : Special Guest - Ron and Marty Cooper 

The Word of God can be easy to read at times and hard to read at times. The key to be a good student is to be willing to search and be wrong. Everything in the Bible should not be taken literally and everything in the Bible should not be taken figuratively. The challenge is finding out when we should read it in that lens. Continuing in the Gospel of Matthew series we come across a passage that requires time to unpack and after listening determine if you agree or disagree with my conclusion. Let’s dig deep and see what we can learn and ponder on.

Bible study reflection solo or with friends is an inspirational segment for Johnathan as a result of getting together for bible study with friends Erik and Jennifer and still having more to say. Thus far, the segment has been about unpacking different passages of scripture read in bible study and still feeling the need to explore things more deeply. Over the last two Weeks I’ve been in the Word.This week as I continue to work on a message in the Gospel of Matthew series I thought it would be cool if I shared a Bible Study topic I planned to talk about with the Senior’s Bible study I have every Saturday if the Lord permits. I hope that this topic blesses you and encourages you to keep on studying and spending time with the Lord.

The ‘’Words’’ Greatest, Greatness, and Greater are used considerably  in all forms of completion that you can think of. One that is most common is Athletics. The arenas or stadiums where sporting events and games occur. This is where you will find some of the most talented, Gifted, and smart athletes in the world competing against one another. These words are also used to measure performance. Whether it’s in the past or present….. Individual or team. When you are on the biggest stages in the greatest moments. Are you the best in that category remains to be the question everyone wants to know. Continuing in the Gospel of Matthew series  I read Matthew 11:11 and  thought it would be cool to talk about what Jesus said from a Biblical perspective. I also wanted to address what Jesus meant when he said “No one greater than John the Baptist.”
