The Westcliffe Climb

In this episode, Daniel and Duffy jump headfirst into one of those conversations that can make family dinners, holiday gatherings, and Facebook comment sections a little... interesting. What happens when your friends, neighbors, coworkers, or favorite fishing buddy follow a different religion than you do? Can you still be close friends? Are Christians responsible for someone else's salvation? And how do you show the love of Jesus without becoming that guy everyone avoids at the barbecue? Then...

YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!! That's what I hear going into this episode... but hang with us! What in the world is Marxist Christianity? I had to look up the definition of "Marxist" when Duffy told me he had this on his heart to discuss....That's all I knew going into this episode: the definitions of Marxism and Christianity. I was still perplexed. I'm very thankful for Duffy's brain. There was definitely a lot to unpack here and many new things that challenged what is happening today in the c...

Josh Duffy and Daniel Salce discuss the events of the past two weeks surrounding the assassination of Charlie Kirk. We have a responsibility….. come join the convo! It always takes a right turn. It would be irresponsible not to address this subject. The last thing we wanted to do was jump on the bandwagon, but it was weighing heavily on Daniel's heart to ask questions. Questions some may be too afraid to ask. That's the beauty of the 1LoveHTX Podcast......we don't get advertising budgets, we ...

Have you ever seen a great movie where the main character takes a chance and then something incredible develops? We all wish we had that kind of courage- to go “All-In” and put it ALL on the line. We are obsessed with these ideas in movies. We love watching it play out. Our faith in God is challenged constantly in this same way. God is constantly inviting us to trust him. Trust his word. Receive wisdom. Get perspective that only he can give. He actually refers to it as “the Narrow...

Daniel has some of the most interesting conversations with people he knows and meets. This past week he was inundated with talks about the flood and the Tower of Babel. From those conversations came talks and questions he had no answers for…… but isn’t that sometimes life in Christ. Sometimes just allowing the mind to ponder the mysteries of the world are enough. Sometimes we won’t have the full answers but we can still have civil conversations. Duffy and Daniel discuss thoughts on the two st...

In the United States, we are just finishing a Presidential race that’s been historical. We aren’t interested in discussing politics directly but more as it relates to human behaviors. We always want our podcast to be a place for discussions of all kinds of topics that relate to our lives. This one can be difficult to navigate but it doesn’t have to be. The truth is, we are all affected by the political climate in the U.S. and to some degree outside our country. People have been on...

Ahhh…..butterflies, racing hearts and hope for the future. *Insert sappy love song here* Do you remember your first love? Untouched by cynicism and the hurts of life. True love makes us want to go above and beyond to show how much we care; giving our attention to the relationship so it flourishes! Oh the dreams we had…Reality often ruins these innocent moments. People fail us, and we fail them in return. Life is hard. Relationships can develop into obligations if we don’t ma...
