Isolation or Idolatry? | + Rep. Cody Maynard | Season 6 Episode 4
The Jacob Sheriff Podcast
11/20/24 • 50 min
In this episode, we’re sitting down with special guest Rep. Cody Maynard to continue to tackle a big topic: how Christians navigate the messy world of politics. We’re talking about the dangers of stepping back completely—and the risk of putting too much faith in politics or politicians to bring about the Kingdom.
How do we stay engaged without losing sight of our ultimate hope in Jesus? Cody shares not only his insights but also real-life stories from his work at the Capitol. How does he keep Christ at the center while navigating the challenges of the political world? His experiences offer practical wisdom and encouragement for anyone wondering how to balance faith and politics in a healthy way.
Join us as we dig into questions like: What happens after the election? What is the role of the Church after what many would call a victory?

S2 - Ep. 1 | Grace is Not a Grade
The Jacob Sheriff Podcast
09/17/21 • 72 min
Tyler tells a story of how he got in trouble with me when I was his basketball coach and you will never guess what Tyler did to get in trouble. 🤔 I also may have handled it a little dramatically. Then Josh tells the tale of the time he got a C on a school paper, which is surprising but how his parents responded was important! These stories and more are told to go into a deeper understanding of Grace! We think we can do so much on our own until we realize in certain moments just how much grace we really need, and it's always more than we think.

Halloween: How should Christians respond? | S2 - Ep.8
The Jacob Sheriff Podcast
11/05/21 • 62 min
Before people get too committed to arguing on social media about the holidays, specifically Halloween in this episode, let's look at the history. Typically, a lot of people look at holidays culturally, but not historically---usually absent of a Biblical view. There is no decision or activity that has NO effect on our souls, whether we feel it or not. This is not a place to get on any particular high horse, but my goal here is to get us thinking about our effectiveness. We can be right but be wrong at the same time. Something we cannot do is pick a soapbox and not apply it across the board. Tyler really wants to have a Hallelujah Night, Josh talks about pretending they weren't home as a kid, and I get a little passionate about Jesus's authority. Next episode, we will talk about Advent, so stay tuned.

How to Eliminate Hurry From Your Life [S4 E7]
The Jacob Sheriff Podcast
05/04/23 • 54 min
“Hurry is the great enemy of the spiritual life in our day. You must ruthlessly eliminate hurry from your life... There is nothing else.” (Dallas Willard)
Do you feel like you're always in a hurry? Like you're constantly running from one thing to the next, never having a moment to slow down and enjoy life? If so, you're not alone. In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in the busy-ness of everyday life. But it doesn't have to be that way. In this episode of the Jacob Sheriff Podcast, we'll share some tips on how to “Ruthlessly” eliminate hurry from your life and start living a more fulfilled and healthy life.
Here are a few things you can do to eliminate hurry from your life:
- We must begin to see Hurry as an enemy of our soul, just like Lust, Greed, or Pride. Hurry is an absolute enemy to our spiritual lives.
- Slow down. Develop habits that help you to quiet your mind and cultivate awareness of God’s Presence. Try setting aside time for silence and stillness.
- Set boundaries. It's important to set boundaries with your time and energy. Don't be afraid to say no to things that you don't have time for or that don't serve you.
- Sabbath. This is one of the Ten Commandments for a reason! God knows that we need this in our lives and it is His gift to humanity, we can’t continue to ignore it expecting everything to be fine!
Eliminating hurry from your life won't happen overnight, but it is possible. We hope this conversation helps you get a vision of how you can start to slow down, relax, and enjoy life more.
