NEWS & NOTES January 2021 Joel Heim Joins the Diggin' Deeper Team As of January 1, 2021, Joel Heim has joined Dr. James Randolph and Jim Warren on the Diggin' Deeper Inside Jimbo's Head team. This has led Jimbo to rename the hosting team J3 (J Cubed) because each host's first names start with the letter "J." Joel first heard Jim's radical teachings a few years ago when Jim first started preaching at the church they attend. Joel often likens Jim's teaching to "being poked in the eye with a pencil." However, after some struggle and deep introspection, Joel now adds to that description, "but it is the most important poke in the eye you will ever receive." Joel brings the team the "man in the pew" perspective rounding out the team's ability to give deeper insights into Jimbo's teachings from the Inside Jimbo's Head segment of the Hello, Jimbo Speaking Podcast. Joel and Dr. Randolph's perspectives add a more robust sense to our answers to your questions and comments. Join us on the Friday Night Live Broadcasts of Diggin' Deeper and bring your questions and comments. We'll be waiting for you. Welcome aboard, Joel! Podcast Reaches Over 525 Listens in Its First Year When Jim Warren (Jimbo) began the Hello, Jimbo Speaking Podcast, he had no idea if anyone would listen because of his radical and controversial teachings. His goal was to have at least 100 listens in the first year. However, on January 13, 2021, the first anniversary of the podcast's launch week, over 525 listens have been recorded from the nine platforms from which it broadcasts. Top episodes include S1E14 "DaMoose and the Pastor, 90 listens; S1E1 "Houston We Have A Problem" with 70 listens; and S1E4 "What is Cultural Christianity? Part III—Key Premises of American Culture Absorbed into American Christianity," 42 listens. The average number of listens per actual episode is over 37, with an audience spanning eight countries and twenty states from the US. Jim and the whole team are thankful for each person who has listened over the past twelve months. Our prayer is that each person will enjoy the format, laugh at Hershimer and HaHa, be moved by the Stories From the Frontlines of Ministry, and be transformed by the One Minute Comedy Skit with a Punch from Lifeline Productions and Inside Jimbo's Head segments. Jim's number one goal is not that people will agree with him but that they would listen carefully and at least struggle with his teachings designed to revitalize conventional Christianity one person at a time. New Episodes on the Way!!!! We are
glad to announce that with Diggin' Deeper well
established and his new book, "Invested" in the
editors' hands, Jim is hard at work on brand new
episodes of the Hello, Jimbo Speaking Podcast.
These are scheduled to launch each Tuesday once
the Diggin' Deeper Inside Jimbo's Head
broadcasts catch up with those episodes already
available. Based on this, the next new episode
should launch on Tuesday, January 26. The first
three new episodes will introduce a new section
of the present study on Cultural Christianity
Versus Kingdom Christianity entitled "Getting
Down to the Nitty-Gritty." This introduction will focus on an intensified
study of Paul's attitude and actions found in
Philippians chapter three, verses seven through
ten. According to Jim Warren, this is the most
important and impactful study anyone could do if
they are serious about living the life of a
disciple of Jesus. After this study of Paul's
attitude and actions, which he commands all
disciples of Jesus to imitate, Jim will take an
intensified look at specific areas of conflict
between culturalized Christianity and kingdom
Christianity. The first area will be on how each
approach looks at becoming and growing as
disciples of Jesus. Yes, this means we will take
on the subjects of salvation and Christian
growth. And you thought Jimbo had been as
radical and controversial as he could get. You
need to listen to these if that was your
thought. Why? You will learn that Paul was even
more radical than Jimbo! But there is a caution.
Your world will be turned inside out and upside
down if you have ears to hear what the Spirit is
saying to the church. March 2020 Below you will find a raw footage video presentation from an interview Jim Warren did with Denise Pyers. Denise was the main character in the extended Story From the Frontlines of Ministry featured in episode fourteen of season one of the Hello, Jimbo Speaking podcast. While a shortened version of this interview appeared in the podcast, this is the full interview. There were just too many interesting moments not to make the entire interview available to you, my faithful listeners. I believe you will laugh and learn as you watch this twenty-five-minute presentation. Here you will get a real look behind the scenes!

MEET THE J3 TEAM JIM (JIMBO) WARREN Jim (Jimbo) is an ordained minister, published author, podcaster, motivational speaker, teacher, and high-risk youth specialist and life coach. Jim is a prolific reader and loves researching for his numerous publications. He approaches ministry from the Sacrificial Invested Ministry Model and focuses on revitalizing conventional Christianity, calling for a 21st-century reformation movement focused on both doctrine and practice. However, Jim's main drive in this revitalization movement is the development of small intimate communities of disciples of Jesus living in communion with the persons of the Trinity and each other. In these communities of communion, he believes many young people he ministers to at a local Juvenile Detention center could find the authentic community life needed for authentic spiritual development. Jim has been married to his wife Tracey for over six years and has three children, five grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren, plus numerous non-biological young people he has ministered to over the years who he calls "his kids." DR. JAMES E. RANDOLPH Dr. James E.

He has recently acquired his license as an insurance producer as well. With his wife, Prophetess Sharon D. Randolph, by his side, he has given birth to three churches and is presently focused on a nationwide movement focused on social justice within the church.
