EP 69 Roman Catholicism Part 2 Sep 21, 2026

Show notes

Today we finish our conversation on Roman Catholicism. What do Roman Catholics believe and how does that differ from what Protestant Christians believe. And are those differences mainly about history, practice, or the heart of the gospel itself?

We explore the questions at the center of this centuries-old conversation: What is the final authority for Christian faith—Scripture alone, or Scripture together with sacred tradition and the teaching authority of the Church? How should we understand baptism, the sacraments, justification, confession, and the role of works? And what do Christians mean when they say that Christ is the one mediator and that His work on the cross is sufficient?

In this episode: John 14:6, Romans 3:23, 1 Peter 3:21, Matthew 16:18, Colossians 2:8

EP 67 The Unforgivable Sin Sep 07, 2026

Show notes

Today we’re stepping into one of the most sobering—and often misunderstood—warnings Jesus ever gave: the warning about the unforgivable sin. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’ve gone too far, sinned too deeply, or somehow crossed a line God will not forgive, this episode is for you.

We’ll look closely at Jesus’ words in Matthew 12:31–32, the moment that prompted them, and the difference between a fearful heart that longs for mercy and a hardened heart that rejects the Holy Spirit’s witness about Christ.

In this episode: Jude 3, 1 Peter 3, Ephesians 6:10-17, Matthew 4:18-20, 1 Timothy 3:7, Philippians 2, 1 Corinthians 11:1.

EP 66 Discipleship Aug 31, 2026

Show notes

Today, we’re talking about one of the most simple—and most life-changing—invitations Jesus ever gave: “Follow Me.”

In Matthew 4, Jesus walks along the Sea of Galilee and calls ordinary fishermen into an extraordinary journey. He doesn’t begin with a complicated explanation or a long list of requirements. He simply says, “Follow Me.”

That invitation is still at the heart of the Christian life. Discipleship is more than admiring Jesus, agreeing with His teachings, or believing from a distance. It is the joyful, costly, lifelong journey of walking with Him, learning from Him, and becoming more like Him.

So in this episode, we’ll explore what it really means to follow Jesus—how His call changes our priorities, reshapes our identity, and leads us into a life of surrender, obedience, community, and mission.

In this episode: Jude 3, 1 Peter 3, Ephesians 6:10-17, Matthew 4:18-20, 1 Timothy 3:7, 1 Corinthians 11:1.

EP 65 Human Trafficking Part 2 Alexa James Aug 24, 2026

Show notes

Join us today as we begin part 2 of our series on Human Trafficking with Alexa James. This conversation is difficult, necessary, and deeply personal: the fight to protect children from exploitation and restore hope after trauma.

Our guest is Alexa James, whose story and calling led her to the work of Blanket Fort Hope, a ministry focused on care, healing, and restoration for children who have been impacted by trafficking and exploitation.

We continue our talk about why trust is so often weaponized against vulnerable children, why silence can be a survival response, and what it takes to create a safe place where restoration can begin.

We’ll also hear about Blanket Fort Hope’s Restoration Home, the needs they are working to meet, and the practical ways each of us can help bring safety, dignity, and hope to children who deserve to be seen, protected, and loved.

EP 64 Human Trafficking Part 1 Aug 17, 2026

In this two-part series, we’ll talk about why trust is so often weaponized against vulnerable children, why silence can be a survival response, and what it takes to create a safe place where restoration can begin.

EP 63 Progressive Sanctification Aug 10, 2026

Show notes

Welcome back to the podcast. In today’s episode, we’re talking about one of the most important—and often most misunderstood—parts of the Christian life: progressive sanctification. What does it mean to grow in holiness without pretending we can change ourselves? How do we hold together our responsibility to obey and God’s promise to work in us? Philippians 2:12–13 gives us the tension and the hope: “Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you.” So today, we’re going to explore how the Spirit patiently shapes believers into the likeness of Christ, not overnight, but through a lifelong journey of grace.

In this episode: Philippians 2:12-13, James 2:17, Matthew 12:34, Philippians 1:6, Philippians 3:12-14.

EP 62 Ministry on Mission Aug 03, 2026

Show notes

Welcome to today’s episode where we are exploring what it means to live the call of Christ beyond the walls of the church and into the everyday places God has already sent us. Our conversation is rooted in Jesus’ Great Commission from Matthew 28:18–20, where He tells His followers, “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations…” It also echoes His words in Luke 10:2–3: “The harvest is abundant, but the workers are few… Now go.”

Today, we’re asking a simple but powerful question: What does it look like for ordinary believers to answer God’s call with the same readiness Isaiah showed when he said, “Here am I. Send me!”

In this episode: Matthew 28:18-20, Isaiah 6:8, Acts 1:8, Luke 8L1-3, Luke 10:2-3.
