The Joe Show with Joe Amaral

Today I am joined by my good friend, Chris Atkins. Chris is a seasoned Producer with almost 70 trips to Israel. He and I have been working together for more than 20 years. Without Chris Atkins, there would be no Joe Amaral.

Chris was in Israel and flew out the same day that Hamas launched its unprecedented and deadly attack against Israel in the early hours of October 7, 2023.

After taking cover in a bunker at the Ben Gurion Airport, Chris was on one of the last flights, if not the last flight, out of the war zone. They had to wait for a lull in rocket fire in order to take off.

He shares his personal story and Chris and I talk about our collective experiences in Israel with both Jews and Palestinians.

I hope you enjoy my interview with J Gallegos on his "That’s the Truth" podcast.

Joe Amaral talks about his new book, “Jesusly” The Act of Being Like Jesus.
He explains what it looks like to embrace the outcast, the outsider and the overlooked.
We delve deeper into understanding the Bible, Jesus and people from a cultural perspective.

This is an interview I did with Eddy Mufy from Denmark regarding The Power of Kindness.

When you commit to a life of living Jesusly, you never know where n the world it will take you or who your actions will impact.

From Joe Amaral, the best-selling author of “Understanding Jesus” and “Story in the Stars”, comes the new book “Jesusly: The Act of Being Like Jesus”.

DESCRIPTION:

JESUSLY: a journey through the Gospel of Luke. As we follow Jesus, we discover the often hidden and deeper meaning behind many of his teachings and actions as we learn about the history and culture in which he lived.

As followers of Jesus, it’s important to know which Jesus to follow. Hollywood has portrayed him one way and modern Christianity showcases a completely different Jesus than we find in the Scriptures.

Luke shows us a Jesus who has no problem breaking barriers and going outside of the accepted social norm if it means meeting the needs of a person who has felt abandoned and rejected. Jesus seeks out the outcast. He’s drawn to the outsider and he sees the overlooked. This is the Jesus that I am encouraging us to imitate. To be Jesusly, we must replicate the actions and love of the Saviour towards those whom society has silenced and sidelined.

Imagine a world where people loved people the way Jesus did. What if all the people on the planet who follow Jesus started living and loving like he did?

Consider what it would be like for people who have felt rejected and discarded to feel loved and valued. Suppose the outcasts are welcomed back home with open arms. Can you picture a world where people who look and think differently than you do, feel seen and loved?

Understanding the history of Jesus is what helps us understand the Jesus of history.

May we all seek to be a little more Jesusly.

This is my origin story. People know me as a TV guy, a writer, and a speaker. But, how did I get to where I am today? Where did the inspiration for the books and TV Shows come from? Why would I leave a successful ministry that I spent years building, only to begin again in one of the world's poorest countries? It all started with a yes. In this episode, I opened up about a complicated past and how I dealt with it. Be encouraged as I share how one trip changed my life!

If Jesus wasn't born on December 25th, why do we celebrate it and how did that specific date get selected?

Is it possible to determine the exact date of Jesus' birth by using Biblical astronomy based on Revelation 12?

In this video, I reveal why and what the Magi followed.

What is preventing you from saying “yes” to the next big step in your life? How does personality affect risk? Are you too comfortable? How far are you willing to go to live a life of obedience to God? Join my wife Karen and me as we talk about our experience with choosing obedience over comfort.

What does it mean to walk by faith? Do you have to have everything worked out before you can step out? How do you know when you are supposed to do it? On this podcast, I share my journey of walking by faith and what it means to do that practically. 

In the is first episode of our second season, I talk about the importance of learning how to pivot during times of chaos and uncertainty. I wanna encourage you to say “yes” to the dream in your heart. Be bold enough and love yourself enough to stop being guided by what people may or may not say about your decisions.

I moved away from a very successful, international ministry to pursue a life of service in one of the poorest countries in the world. And you know what? I’ve never been happier.

Say yes to the call. Say yes to the pivot. There is SO much more to gain than anything you think you could lose.

My guest is my nephew Liam Amaral. Is holding on to our Hebraic Roots a form of "Cultural Appropriation?" It's a very important question and a great conversation with someone who is in Generation Z.

Your mind will be blown as he reveals the staggering similarities between the events of the very first Pentecost at Mount Sinai and the Pentecost recorded in Acts 2.   What's the purpose of Pentecost? What are we supposed to do with the power of Pentecost. These and many other questions are addressed in this 48 minute teaching.

How do you encourage yourself when you're in a bad situation? What, or who do you turn to? Many people are feeling discouraged and depressed during this season of global pandemic and quarantine. How are you coping? Joe and Karen provide some simple and helpful information to ensure that you not just survive, but thrive!

Disproving the resurrection of Jesus has been attempted many times throughout history.

Why is the resurrection of Jesus so important to the Christian message?

Many religions revere and worship at the tomb of its leaders. The remains at the grave brings comfort to its followers.

Christianity is the exact opposite. The empty tomb of Jesus in Jerusalem is what brings us comfort!

Joe Amaral takes you an a 2000 year old journey to the first Good Friday, and 3000 years back to the very first Passover in History. You will learn about the amazing connection between ancient Judaism and modern Christianity. Discover the powerful connection behind the Passover Lamb and the sacrificial crucifixion of Jesus of Nazareth.

April 7th, 2020 is Sexual Abuse Awareness Day

Today…I break my silence.

On this Podcast, I share my journey as a survivor of male childhood sexual abuse. I remained silent for years, shame and fear held me captive. I blamed myself for what happened to me, but today, all that changes. The opposite of fear and shame is courage and freedom. My journey to victory is filled with ups and downs, mountain tops and valleys. I pray that my testimony will inspire you and the men in your life to break free from the past and emerge as a new creation, free and loved.

This episode contains strong sexual themes intended for mature audiences only. Please exercise extreme caution in who you allow to listen to the content.
