Exploring whether or not God even exists? or committed to following Jesus? We present biblical truths and show how they apply to our everyday lives. And we have a lot of fun while doing it. Whatever your thoughts on church, whatever your beliefs about God, you are welcome here.
If I follow Jesus, should I ________?
Mar 28, 2025
Show notes
Should I do yoga? Play poker? Listen to Cardi B? We all ask questions that the Bible doesn’t seem to actually have an answer for (although if there’s a prophecy about Cardi B that we missed, please let us know). People in Jesus’ time wrestled with similar questions, but when they asked Jesus, He asked them questions that forced them to go deeper. We want a black and white answer, but the truth is God often shows up to meet us in the gray area. So how do we navigate that? Alli Patterson gives us a framework on how to do just that. Recorded live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Does What I Do With My Body Matter?
Mar 22, 2025
Show notes
Can a Christian get tattoos? What about smoke? Drink? These are all important questions, but it doesn’t matter nearly as much as the deeper question: does it matter what we do with our body? Aren’t we all just meat bags that need to be filled with Taco Bell sometimes until we go to heaven? (Ok, maybe we shouldn’t put the terms “meat bags” and “Taco Bell” in the same sentence). Brian Tome dives into what we do with our body—and why it might matter way more than we think. Recorded Live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Why Aren’t My Prayers Being Answered?
Mar 15, 2025
Show notes
We’ve all been there. You’ve prayed the same thing over and over again, but nothing seems to happen, no matter what you do. After a while, you have to wonder: What’s going on, am I not holy enough or something? Is there some invisible 7'3" NBA center shot blocking these? Or worse: does God even know or care about me? If you’ve ever felt that way, you’re not alone. So what do we do when we feel like that? And is there even a way to start to get more “yeses”? Join Brian Tome as he breaks down the method of prayer taught by the greatest to ever do it: Jesus Himself. Recorded live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati.
You Are What You (Digitally) Eat
Mar 08, 2025
Show notes
Your phone is a fork. You might be wondering, “When did I download the Fork app?“. Good news, it’s not a premium subscription. But your phone DOES dictate how and what you consume. And for a lot of us, that’s comparison, fear, and distraction. Your enemy has one job: to keep you distracted and asleep so you don’t do anything. This week, Kyle Ranson shows us how we can use our phones like they’re meant to be used, and start feeding ourselves something with real nutrition. You can’t change the world if you don’t have good fuel. Recorded live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Live a Greater Story

Show notes
Remember when that guy did the thing that everyone else was doing, nothing happened, nothing changed, and no one cared? Yeah, me neither. There’s a greater call on your life, and you can’t get there by following the current of culture that just wants to sweep you out into a sea of nothingness. You can live a greater story. How? Accept the challenge in front of you and be transformed. Join Chuck Mingo as he shows us how we can step into a greater story and change the world while changing ourselves in the process. Recorded live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati, Ohio.
God Wants to Give You a Gift
Feb 22, 2025
Show notes
God wants to give you a gift. Will you receive it? When you think of gifts, it ranges from anywhere from a new car to that pair of socks you hated to open when you were a kid. But God doesn’t always give like your parents or The Price is Right. Sometimes His gifts come on the other side of discipline. And as we head into this season of a Digital Reset, you might be in line for an incredible gift that will bring you life, freedom, and joy. How do we receive that? Join Chuck Mingo as he shows us how we can put our devices in the right place in our lives. Recorded live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati, Ohio.
The Thief in Your Pocket
Feb 15, 2025
Show notes
You’re being stolen from. And we’re not talking about your bank account or Netflix password, either. Your attention is one of your most valuable resources, yet every day, our phone steals it from us more and more. Jesus promises us that even though there’s a thief that came to steal, kill, and destroy, He came that we may have life, and life to the full. Join us as Brian Tome breaks down how we can have that full life, and that it might come through (*gasp*) a digital fast. Recorded live in Cincinnati, Ohio at Crossroads Church.

Show notes
