This Advent season Ben and Darren discuss some of their favorite hymns and the depth of gospel truths each one has. This week we look at Joy to the World and discuss why we can be joyful even when life often isn't and what Jesus came to do.

By popular demand! Ben and Darren discuss the most requested topic for the podcast, the fig trees in the gospels. This may seem like an obscure topic to discuss but it is rich with biblical imagery and the glory of the gospel in the New Covenant. Listen in as we explore the vast riches Scripture has to offer in even the smallest details.

In light of the recent election, Ben and Darren discuss how we as Christians should respond and what our hope is. They discuss the nature of the two kingdoms we live in and what our mission should be and why the mission of the church must be protected.

Ben and Darren continue their discussion on discipleship of our families as they look at parents' responsibilities to their children on Sunday and beyond. They discuss the role and responsibility of the church in overall discipleship and how that should shape home life.

What does God command from parents as they seek to raise their children to know the Lord? Ben and Darren discuss what discipleship in the home might look like, from formal devotion time to informal discussions. 

Ben and Darren talk through the (sometimes) hotly debated doctrine of cessationism? What is it? Is it biblical? Where do we see this in Scripture and why is it important? What about our charismatic and continuationist brothers and sisters? 

Ben and Darren discuss the ending to the Lord's Prayer. Should this section be included in Scripture or is it an addition later on? How does the doxology shape our prayers and our life as Christians? What does it look like to live for the glory of God and desire that above all things?

Ben and Darren discuss the sixth petition of the Lord's Prayer where we see our dependence on God to avoid sin and to be delivered from a threat more powerful than we can handle on our own. And in this we see God's loving heart for his children.

Do we have to earn God's forgiveness through our own willingness to forgive? What does it mean to forgive as God forgives us? Ben and Darren discuss these topics and more as they look at the fifth petition.

Ben and Darren discuss the fourth petition, give us this day our daily bread. What does this say about who our God is, who we are, and how we should live our daily lives? Should the Christian be anxious about daily needs?
