Christians and Culture: What does it mean to be in the world, but not of the world? - Re-Air
In this episode of The Daily Grace Podcast, we dive into a phrase commonly heard in Christian circles: what it truly means to be “in the world, but not of the world.” Drawing from Jesus's High Priestly Prayer in John 17, we unpack how this concept is often misunderstood as a call to isolate ourselves from culture out of fear. Instead, we propose a powerful perspective shift: Believers are actually “not of the world but sent into the world” to actively engage with the communities around them.
We share practical, real-world examples of what this missional lifestyle looks like across va...

It's Not All Up to You - Re-Air
Tell Us What You Think
In this throwback episode of The Daily Grace Podcast, we sit down to gently unpack a heavy burden that so many women carry: the exhausting belief that everything depends entirely on you. When life feels overwhelming and the weight of your daily responsibilities feels too heavy to bear, Scripture invites you into a beautiful alternative. By exploring timeless truths from Psalms, Isaiah, and Job, this conversation shifts our gaze away from our own limited strength and points us toward the perfect, unshakable sovereignty of God. You don’t have to hold it all tog...Should Christians Always Forgive One Another? - Re-Air
Forgiveness can be a loaded topic. It’s almost always tied to pain—either pain that we’ve caused or pain that we’ve experienced. This makes forgiveness difficult to process and difficult to act on. In this classic but ever-relevant episode, we break down what biblical forgiveness is, why we are able to forgive even when it’s hard, and how to handle forgiving difficult people.
