In this episode, we’re diving into the difficult but important topic of church hurt—those wounds caused by the very place and people meant to reflect Christ's love.

Episode 50: Because We’re Here - The Church’s Role in the Community
04/23/2025

What difference does it make that our church exists in this community? In this episode, we’re unpacking the role of the local church beyond Sunday mornings—how we’re called to be a light in our neighborhoods, a source of hope in hardship, and a catalyst for change.

We’ll ask some big questions: What kind of impact should the church be creating simply because we’re here? Is community transformation just the responsibility of church staff, or is it a calling for every believer?

Whether you're a leader, a volunteer, or someone still figuring out your p...

Episode 46: gods at War - How to Identify Modern Day Idols in Your Life
03/12/2025

In this episode, we dive into the reality of modern-day idols — the things we elevate above God without even realizing it. While we may not bow to golden statues, today’s idols often look like success, sex, celebrity, or anything we place at the center of our lives. An idol is anything that takes God's rightful place in our hearts, shaping our choices, identities, and desires.

Join us as we unpack how these subtle yet powerful idols creep in, how to recognize what’s truly ruling our lives, and how we can re-center our hearts on Christ.

Thanks for joining us! When was the last time you fasted — not just skipped a meal, but truly sought God through the powerful (and often neglected) spiritual discipline of fasting? In today’s episode, the guys dive deep into what fasting really means, why it’s more than just going without food, and how it can unlock a deeper intimacy with God. Whether you’ve never fasted before or you’re looking to reignite this practice in your spiritual walk, this conversation will challenge and inspire you. Let's dive in.

S2: Episode 44: The Power of No - Setting Boundaries with Love and Confidence
02/26/2025

In this episode, we dive into the power of saying “no” and how setting boundaries is not just healthy—it’s biblical. As followers of Christ, we’re called to love others, but that doesn’t mean we have to sacrifice our well-being or allow unhealthy relationships to take over our lives. We’ll explore how Jesus set boundaries, why they are essential for spiritual and emotional health, and how you can establish them with wisdom, grace, and love. Whether you're struggling with family, friendships, or ministry commitments, this conversation will help you honor God while protecting the space He’s given you to t...


S2: Episode 43: The Unseen Battle
02/19/2025

Are you aware of the spiritual battles happening around you? The Bible tells us that we are in a constant struggle—not against flesh and blood, but against spiritual forces (Ephesians 6:12). In this episode, we dive into what spiritual warfare looks like in our daily lives, how to recognize the enemy’s tactics, and most importantly, how to stand firm in faith.

We’ll explore questions like:

How do we put on the full armor of God? Can prayer truly change the battle? How do we overcome fear and walk in victory? Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by spi...
