You're Not Losing Faith—You're Spiritually Out of Shape - Spiritually Fit Today
Welcome to Spiritually Fit Today with Arnie Cole and this week's guest, Braden Pedersen. In this episode Arnie and Braden discuss why many Christians feel spiritually drained despite regular church attendance and Bible reading — and how spiritual fitness (not just faith effort) brings lasting change. They unpack a simple, practical daily roadmap from 1 Timothy 4:7–8: Receive, Reflect, Respond, Reveal, and offer steps to build small daily habits that grow your spiritual life.What to do next (4 R actions)- Read: Pick a clear starting point (Matthew chapter 1, Proverbs, or a daily Bible plan) and read a short passage each day. - Reflect: Pause and meditate on the passage. Ask what it reveals about God, yourself, and your story. Use a study Bible, devotional, or brief questions (Who? What? So what? Now what?) to guide thought. - Respond: Turn your reflection into prayer. Ask God, “What are you asking me to change?” and commit one personal next step. - Reveal: Share what you learned with someone else — a text, a quick conversation, a social post, or living out the truth in a practical way. Make that small step publicly count.Contact: arnie.cole@bttb.orgKeywords: spiritual fitness, daily Bible reading, Bible habits, spiritual disciplines, Receive Reflect Respond Reveal, 1 Timothy 4:7-8, daily devotion, Christian growth, Braden Pedersen, Arnie ColeSubscribe to get each episode delivered to your Inbox daily at: https://bttb.org/subscribe2sft

The Father's Day Message Every Man Needs to Hear - Spiritually Fit Today
Welcome to Spiritually Fit Today with Arnie Cole. In this episode Arnie talks with Brian Doyle (founder of Iron Sharpens Iron) about Father’s Day, the state of fatherhood, and Malachi 4:6 — “He will turn the hearts of the parents to their children and the hearts of the children to their parents.” They discuss how many men are still trying to become the fathers they needed, practical ways to mentor boys without fathers, and a simple soul-pump assignment to start making a difference today.4 R Action StepsRead — Read Malachi 4:5-6. Let the promise and responsibility settle in.Reflect — Ask: What father did I need? Who in my life passes by unseen? How can my heart turn toward a son who needs spiritual leadership?Respond — Name one young man (son, nephew, neighbor, kid at church). Pray for him, send a casual text, invite him for a Coke or a meal, and commit to showing up consistently as a spiritual mentor.Reveal — Demonstrate this truth by bringing him to church, sharing your faith story, teaching Scripture with him, or introducing him to a men’s discipleship group.Want to help or send photos/questions to the show?

The Foundation That Held When Everything Fell Apart - Spiritually Fit Today
Welcome to Spiritually Fit Today with Arnie Cole and guest Brian Doyle. In this episode Arnie and Brian talk honestly about carrying grief, loss, and regret — the “walking wounded” who must still show up for life and ministry. Drawing on 2 Corinthians 1:3-4, they explore how God comforts us in suffering and how that comfort becomes the most powerful legacy we can pass on. Brian shares personal experiences of loss, cancer survival, and how faith and a solid spiritual foundation helped him minister to his family and others through pain.4 R Action StepsRead — Read 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 daily this week. Make it the first passage you open to and underline phrases that stand out.Reflect — Ask: Where am I carrying a wound? How has God comforted me before? Who in my life needs that comfort now? Spend 5–10 minutes journaling your answers.Respond — Write four foundational practices you need (spiritual disciplines, relationships, resources). Commit to one specific step this week: a Bible reading time, a short prayer routine, or reaching out to a trusted friend or counselor.Reveal — Share what God has taught you with one person this week. Offer presence, a listening ear, and the Scripture that helped you. Small acts of vulnerability become tools of comfort for others.Resources and contactEmail Arnie: arnie.cole@bttb.org for questions, prayer requests, or to share how this episode helped you.Keywords: grief, Christian grief, comfort, 2 Corinthians 1:3-4, spiritual formation, faith and loss, pastoral care, bereavement, ministry and family, Arnie Cole, Brian Doyle, Spiritually Fit Today, coping with loss, Christian encouragementSubscribe to get each episode delivered to your Inbox daily at: https://bttb.org/subscribe2sft
