What is a green room anyway? Simply put, it's a place where the best and brightest church volunteers gather to enjoy gourmet coffees and assorted Little Debbie cakes (not a sponsor) while they ponder the vicissitudes of life. TOTALLY KIDDING! But sometimes it can feel that way. Whitney Capps and co-host Russ Greer discuss this curious element of Christian subculture to determine what place, if any, it has in the church.

We're not trying to start a war, but this conversation is one worth having. It may seem like the concept of modesty is a distant memory of a bygone era. But as followers of Jesus, we have a responsibility to steward our bodies—and how we dress them—in a way that honors Christ and considers others. Whitney Capps and co-host Russ Greer tackle a difficult but necessary discussion on the biblical foundation for modesty.

If you attend church regularly, you're probably familiar with the idea of singing songs as a part of the corporate worship gathering experience. But have you thought much about what you're saying when you sing those songs? The reality is that the lyrics we recite declare truths—or maybe even untruths—about God. Whitney Capps and co-host Russ Greer take a deeper look at the importance of the words we say when we sing songs to and about God.
