"The Church only wants my money." This is one of the main reasons behind the decline in American church attendance and participation. Today Rham and Phil explore the Church's relationship with money. What questions should you ask before you give? Why does the Church need money, and what does it do with it? How transparent should a church be with its finances. Join us for this conversation!

This week Rham and Phil talk about the famous"golden rule;" do unto others as you'd have done to you.  This sounds well and good, but when we try to apply it things can get tricky.  How should we handle this important teaching in our daily lives, and how does it apply to our most important relationships?  Tune in and hear what they have to say!

Rham and Phil are joined by City Director and Vice Mayor Jarred Rego to talk about liturgical time. What is liturgical time, anyway?  What difference does it make?  How is it different from regular time?  Join us for a fun and somewhat nerdy conversation about life in a liturgical church.

Join Sara and Phil as they wrap up this brief series on the Sermon on the Mount.  This week, they discuss the narrow gate and the wide gate. What do Jesus words about easy and hard roads mean for us, and what does the Roman Empire have to do with anything?  Take a listen!
