Justice, Protest, And Fear: Unpacking The Minneapolis ICE Conflict - S6:EP49

What does Scripture call Christians to do when the nation feels divided and the headlines feel overwhelming? In this episode, we unpack Romans 13 and explore what it means to respect governing authorities while still caring deeply about justice and human dignity. We talk honestly about why agencies like ICE exist, why their work is often difficult but necessary for maintaining lawful order, and how Christian Conservatives should view the unrest and media narratives surrounding Minneapolis. Rather than reacting out of fear, anger, or political pressure, we challenge believers to respond with biblical discernment, prayerful wisdom, and Kingdom-first thinking in the middle of cultural chaos. Let's get into it.

A Rule Of Life For 2026: 26 Things Every Christian Should Consider - S6:EP48

What if the things you reach for most are shaping you more than you realize? In this episode, we talk about why we’re starting a 30-day fast, not as a cleanse or reset, but as a disruption of the idols that go unnamed.

Where Has Your Worship Wandered? - S6:EP45

Have you ever wondered why certain habits, comforts, or distractions feel impossible to let go of? This episode dives into the uncomfortable but freeing topic of idolatry, and how fasting helps us identify what’s quietly ruling our lives.

If You Don’t Listen To Any Other Episode This Year, Listen To This One - S6:EP44

Are you already exhausted by the pressure to “fix” yourself this year? In this episode, we push back against the New Year narrative that says you need a total overhaul to be faithful or effective. We talk about the difference between reinvention and sanctification, and why one leaves us burned out while the other actually changes us. No hype. No resolutions. No pretending.

What Would Jesus Do The Week Before Christmas? - S6:EP43

The week before Christmas is often the loudest, busiest, and most exhausting part of the season, but what if it wasn’t meant to be that way?

We challenge the mindset of, “this is just what we do every year” and invite you to reclaim intentionality, reverence, and sacred rhythm in the days leading up to Christ’s birth. Let's get into it!

This Lie About Godliness Has To Stop - S6 EP38

In this episode, we’re breaking down a quiet lie many Christians accidentally live by: the idea that there are “levels” of godliness. Super-Christians over here, “regular” believers over there. Spoiler: Scripture doesn’t teach spiritual class systems. It calls all of us to reflect Christ in every area of life, not just the ones that feel easy or public.
We’ll talk about why comparison sneaks into our faith, how cultural ideas of “aesthetic Christianity” distort spiritual growth, and what it really looks like to pursue Christlikeness in ordinary, behind-the-scenes moments within our habits, friendships, creativity, online presence, and even how we handle discouragement.
If you’ve ever felt “not Christian enough,” or wondered whether you have what it takes to live a life that genuinely honors Jesus, this episode is here to ground you in truth, encourage your walk, and remind you that God isn’t calling you to a tier… He’s calling you to Himself.
Tune in for a conversation that’s biblical, practical, and full of gentle conviction.

The Real Population Crisis: Why Christians Must Reclaim Marriage & Children - S6:EP38

What if the real crisis isn't Islam's growth, but Christian apathy toward family? Islam is expanding around the world, but behind the numbers is a deeper issue: Christians have stopped valuing the very things God designed to sustain faith through generations. Today, we unpack why family matters for Kingdom influence, how the enemy distorts young Christians’ view of marriage, and why it’s time to stop fearing commitment and start building homes centered on Christ. Let's get into it.

How The Church Should Respond To Decreased SNAP Benefits - S6:EP35

Have you heard that the government shutdown has resulted in some changes to SNAP benefits? In today’s episode, we’re talking about one of the most neglected callings in Christianity: the Church showing up before the government has to. With the shutdown putting SNAP benefits on hold, families are struggling, and this is exactly when believers should be leading the way in community, responsibility, and real compassion. We dig into why the Church should never outsource care to the government, what biblical community actually looks like, and how we can step into the gap for our neighbors during times of crisis. If you’re ready to rethink how the Church can be the steady, dependable foundation our culture needs, this episode is for you. Let's get into it.

From The Classroom To The Capitol: The Cost Of A Lost Generation - S6:EP34

What do the 2025 election results in New York City and Virginia really tell us about the next generation? The 2025 elections made headlines, but what’s happening beneath the surface is even more concerning. In this episode, we talk about how the victories of Mamdani and Jay Jones reveal a deeper spiritual issue in our nation. We have a generation that’s been discipled more by the classroom than by the Church. We unpack how universities have become centers of indoctrination, why so many young people are embracing deceptive worldviews, and what it will take for us to stand firm and speak truth in a culture that’s forgotten where wisdom begins. Let's get into it.

When You Stop Trying To Love God More And Rest In His Love For You - S6:EP32

How many of us measure our relationship with God by how well we’re loving Him, how often we pray, how much we read our Bible, or how obedient we’ve been this week? But what if our love for God was never meant to be the focus? In this episode, we talk about the freedom that comes when we shift our gaze from our love for God to His love for us, and how that simple change transforms obedience from duty into delight. Let's get into it.
