The God’s Got Jokes Podcast

What do a lost dog and the Gospel have in common? More than you’d think! 🐕
This week, Joe and Betsy are diving into the beautiful, messy reality of community. Through a (very) humorous true story of a neighborhood dog hunt, they explore what it actually looks like to be unified in faith.
The takeaway? Unity isn’t just a feeling—it’s found in:
👂 Quiet listening
🙏 Repentance
🛠️ Practical love
They’re pointing us back to John 17, reminding us that when the Body of Christ lives out the Gospel together, the world takes notice.

If there’s one thing we’ve learned heading into 2026, it’s that life rarely goes according to our "perfect" plans and that’s exactly where grace meets us.
We are so excited to be back for Season 2! We’re diving into:
Simple goals over New Year's pressure.
Honest self-reflection (the messy kind).
2 Peter 1:12–15: Why we need to hear the same Good News every single day.
Whether you're folding laundry or on your morning commute, come hang out with us as we talk about living by faith in the middle of the mundane.
What’s one "simple goal" you’re carrying into 2026? Let us know!

The Christian life isn't a sprint—it's a marathon that requires grit, training, and a whole lot of grace.
Hosts Joe and Betsy are pulling back the curtain on the real struggle: the daily need for discipline, the fight against depletion, and the power of focusing on the eternal prize.
Drawing practical wisdom from Hebrews 12, we break down how to:
* Identify the hindrances (your weights!).
* Surround yourself with a strong faith community.
* Fix your eyes firmly on Jesus.
If you're tired and need encouragement to keep running, this episode is for you.

Ditch the performance and embrace the freedom!

Episode 5: Iron Sharpens Iron: Building Real Community
It's tough out here for a grown-up trying to make real friends! 😅
If you've ever felt like marriage and moving completely nuked your community, this episode is for you. Joseph and Jeanette are getting super candid about the challenge of finding people who will truly 'carry' you.
We look to Mark 2 and Proverbs 27:17 for the biblical blueprint on building friendships that actually last and sharpen your faith.
🔑 Practical Takeaways:
Be patient—good relationships take time!
Pray for friends who will challenge and lift you.
Make Jesus-centered community a priority.
Listen now!
As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another. Proverbs 27:17

Hosts Joseph and Betsy reflect on a Phil Wickham concert that sparked a conversation about being "homesick for Heaven," the power of live worship, and how longing for Jesus shows up in daily life.
Betsy shares her personal story of losing her father, finding comfort in his Bible notes, and discovering hope in the Book of Revelation, while they discuss grief, faith, and teaching their children to long for the Father’s house.

Ever feel like God asks you to do something totally awkward? You're not alone!
In this episode, Betsy and Joe finally explain the meaning behind the podcast name, "God's Got Jokes," and dive into the messy reality of obeying God. We share funny, honest stories of resisting His will and reflect on how those small, imperfect steps of obedience create massive ripple effects in our marriage, parenting, and ministry.
Drawing on Jeremiah and our own clumsy faith journeys, we encourage you to trust God in new seasons and embrace the beautiful imperfection of your path.
