All Episodes
All the interviews, discussions and guided prayers from Notes on Wisdom.
Audio The World’s Problems - No. 44
We love Justice because we were made for it. We empathize with others because God gave us a heart. Our love of Justice and our ability to empathize with other people drive us to want to be the solution to the problems in the world around us.
Audio Crush Ego - No. 43
Several months ago, my nine-year-old son told me, “we should make a hat that says crush ego on it, because that's what your book is about.” I was shocked. He’s nine years old, he hasn't even read the book, and yet he somehow got to the heart of the message.
Audio Kingdom vs. Empire W/ Brian Schroller
Are you tired of playing with mud pies in the slum of worldly success? Join Jon Walt and Brian Schroeder as they unpack the radical shift from empire to kingdom living, offering a path to true abundance, deep relational connection, and lasting peace.
Audio Questions Guide the Journey - No. 42
So much of the time, we overcomplicate our spiritual journey. We obsess over theology, or practices, or which faith community to invest our time in, what prayers to pray, or even which devotionals and books to read.
Audio Burning Hearts - No. 41
I have been thinking about one sentence a lot lately. I believe that it holds a key to understanding how we each should expect to feel in response to Jesus. I would like to share it with you and invite you to join me in pondering these powerful words.
Audio Craig Wilson interview
After leading the creation of San Antonio's iconic Pearl district, Craig Wilson experienced a severe breakdown that forced him to confront a lifetime of performance-driven anxiety. Discover how he found true wholeness by letting go of control and embracing the gift of Shalom.
Audio Scott Dohner - Deconstructing Our Bad Thinking
Are you ready to remodel your mind? Join John Walt and Scott Dohner as they discuss how to deconstruct our culturally marinated thinking, embrace true discipleship, and find freedom in surrendering our egos to the Kingdom of God.
Audio Depths of Wisdom - No. 40
The more I have been blessed to spend time with people of wisdom, the more I see how they consistently return to seemingly simple truths. Many things in our world we view as linear progressions; we start with less, and we work towards more.
Audio Scalessness - No. 39
One of the effects of industrialization and globalization has been a cultural obsession with scale. We can sell a product to millions of people on multiple continents and in many different countries. A message can be shared simultaneously with people around the world.
Audio Prayers of praise and abiding W/ John Walt
Join John Walt as he shares a series of deeply moving prayers of praise and abiding, inspired by A.W. Tozer. Discover how to find rest in God's unchanging love, seek His guidance, and experience His healing presence in your daily life.
Audio The Person of Jesus - No. 38
Recently, I have been studying Bonhoeffer and reading more of his work. I have been struck by the way Bonhoeffer observed Jesus and His Gospel being removed from the Nazi German church. During this same time in America, the humanist movement did the same thing.
Audio Story as a Weapon - No. 37
It is impossible to underestimate the role that storytelling has played in shaping communities, cultures, and civilizations throughout history. Before we had written languages, ancestral tribes relied on oral traditions, built around stories that passed down their collective wisdom and history.
