Ep40: God’s Enemies (Romans 5)

Ep40: God’s Enemies (Romans 5)

In war, sometimes the only way to survive is surrender, putting yourself at the mercy of your enemy.  That’s kind of like the Christian life.  We’re marveling at God’s forgiveness in Romans 5: “while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”

Ep39: It’s About the Heart (Romans 4)

Ep39: It’s About the Heart (Romans 4)

It’s in our nature to want to prove ourselves – even before God.  The bad news: you can’t possibly measure up.  The good news: you can’t possibly measure up!  That’s where a faith like Abraham’s – faith in God’s promises – saves the day.  Our hosts dive into Romans chapter four.

Ep38: Finally, Some Good News! (Romans 3)

Ep38: Finally, Some Good News! (Romans 3)

No matter how long you’ve been a Christian, it’s essential to be reminded what you’ve been saved from – and what you’ve been saved to!  We’re looking at Romans 3 for what it really means to be saved and why the gospel is the whole world’s “good news.”

Ep37: Judging Others (Romans 2)

Ep37: Judging Others (Romans 2)

We have a judgement problem. From labeling others on social media, to looking down on those who aren’t as “righteous” as we think we are, to outright refusals to call evil what it is, we all desperately need God’s truth in our judgements. Tim, Mike and Tately take a look at Romans chapter 2.

Ep36: Same Sex Attraction (Romans 1)

The confusion surrounding today’s conversations on sexuality can be overwhelming.  But God’s Word provides the most loving (if not always the easiest) truth for a flourishing life!  How does the book of Romans inform our response to same-sex attraction?

S2 Finale: The Digital Media Diet

S2 Finale: The Digital Media Diet

Season 2 wraps up with a special interview episode; season 3 is around the corner this Spring!

From headlines to streaming shows to, yes, podcasts, there’s no doubt we’re consuming more media now than ever before.  Christians can’t afford to approach their digital media diet uncritically.  Brett McCracken, author of The Wisdom Pyramid: Feeding Your Soul in a Post-Truth World, joins Mike and Tim for a special episode about what we’re putting into our minds, how it’s shaping us, and what wisdom brings to the table in today’s online all-you-can-eat environment.

Ep33: Holy Friendship

Ep33: Holy Friendship

The gift of good friends is a gracious blessing, but, unfortunately, it’s not one that is guaranteed in every season of life. Whether you’ve got your own squad, or you’re still waiting on having one person to call “bestie,” what does it take to first *be* a good friend? And what are some of the surprising things God does through friendship?

Ep32: Modern Day Pharisees

Ep32: Modern Day Pharisees

Jesus repeatedly, publicly denounced one kind of person.  In the first century, they were usually the Pharisees – devout students and teachers of the Bible with one problem: a bad habit of self righteousness and a knack for contemptuous pride.  How does “Phariseeism” creep into our lives in ways we never intended, and how do we lovingly help put it to death in ourselves and our church communities?

Ep31: How Should Churches Share the Gospel?

Ep31: How Should Churches Share the Gospel?

Every Christian church agrees that sharing the gospel is important.  But what’s the best way to do that: getting people from the world into the church, or getting Church people out into the world?  Maybe it’s not one over the other; what are the strengths and weaknesses of both, and what do we feel called to do?
