2.17 | Nostalgia Dec 16, 2019

Show notes

Remember the setting; a grandparent's kitchen, cookies baking. A best friend's basement with a retro video game system. The smell of your dad after cutting the grass. The soundtrack to your studies at college. We're all nostalgic for something. We all possess a longing for some good ole days long gone. We think fondly of these memories with joy and sadness. We're *especially* nostalgic around Christmas. So what is nostalgia? Why are we nostalgic? And what might nostalgia be directing us toward? Trevor and Jim Slice talk through this topic on this week's episode.

2.16 | You Can Change Nov 25, 2019

Show notes

We'd all like to change. But into what? And why? Something we hope is that every person a part of our church changes. Trevor and Aaron discuss a book that we think is a really helpful resource in pursuing the right sort of change.

2.15 | The New Kid on the Block (Part 3): Jonathan Franklin Nov 18, 2019

Show notes

Our church has been blessed with lots of opportunities to invest in young men and women, particularly those interested in vocational ministry. This week, Trevor interviews one of those young men, Jonathan Franklin. Jonathan serves as one of our pastoral residents. We spend this episode talking about his family background, how he became a believer, where he wants to serve and minister long-term, and what he hopes to get out of his time at TCGS. We hope this episode encourages you!

2.14 | Living in Laodicea Nov 11, 2019

Show notes

In Rev. 3:14-22, Jesus condemns the church at Laodicea for a lukewarmness rooted in overconfidence in wealth, autonomy, and affluence. In many respects, this is very much like the church in 21st century America. How so? How might this be true of us today, both as individuals and as a church? How might we be able to say that we "live in Laodicea" as 21st century Americans? What is the connection between wealth and spiritual poverty? Why is it hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom? Is there an underbelly to living in Laodicea? This week Trevor discusses this topic with Aaron Markham, our discipleship director.

2.13 | Etc. (November) Nov 04, 2019

Show notes

What do the next several weeks look like for TCGS? More importantly, what's the "WHY" that undergirds these things? How do these events fit into our overall vision as a church? Trevor sits down with Aaron Markham, our discipleship director, to discuss all this in this week's episode!

2.12 | Peru in Review (with Carlos!) Oct 28, 2019

Show notes

On October 12-19, Trevor and a handful of folks from TCGS and TCC visited Lima, Peru to serve, work, evangelize, and observe the work of Food for the Hungry. On this week's episode, Trevor discusses the trip with Carlos Causillas (a member of TCC and our team leader) on Carlos' back porch; they discuss what Carlos was encouraged by, and what he hopes our churches take away from the trip. Give it a listen!

2.11 | Confessions, Covenants, Constitutions, OH MY!! Oct 14, 2019

Show notes

Over the last 18 months we've been slowly working on our founding documents - our statement of faith, covenant, and constitution. Maybe you hear that and maybe you think to yourself: Why mess with a church covenant, statement of faith, and constitution in the first place? They aren't in the bible. The early church didn't need them. Churches in other parts of the world are getting along fine without them. Why do WE need them? Why all of this extra work? Isn't this just "traditions of men" being piled onto the word of God unnecessarily complicating things? Isn't this distracting from the mission to make Jesus known, love our neighbors, and preach the gospel? Why? Why? WHY?

Give this episode listen for any answer to those burning questions and a little bit of life advice with Josh Styles.

2.10 | On Famous Christians Oct 07, 2019

Show notes

Sometimes Christians get famous. Other times famous people become Christians. How should those none famous Christians among us respond? Should we be happy? Encouraged? Or doubtful? Cynical? This week Trevor and Jim Slice discuss this topic and a little about some guy named "Kanye."

2.9 | Etc. (October) Sep 30, 2019

Show notes

According to wikipedia, "et cetera" is a Latin expression used to mean "and other similar things." Translated literally from Latin, it means "and the rest."

What do the next several weeks look like for TCGS? Why are we doing these things? Why are these important? How do these events fit into our overall vision as a church? Trevor sits down with Hannah Koschel, our ministry admin and kids ministry director, to discuss all this in this week's episode!

2.8 | The Gospel Comes with a House Key Sep 23, 2019

Show notes
