During this week's podcast, Pastor Chris and Bobby continue to talk through the book of Joshua, picking up in chapter three. They talk through the importance of waiting on God and having faith in His provision and how even though we all face impossible situations, God specializes in making the impossible, possible if we simply trust in His leading.

In this week's episode of Beyond The Message, Pastor Chris and Bobby continue their talks on the book of Joshua. They discuss how our faith must be accompanied by action and include both declarations and demonstrations of our faith. They also discuss more in depth the life of Rahab and how her faith led her to protect the Israelite spies and ultimately join God's people.

In this week's episode, Pastor Chris and Bobby start a new set of conversations on our new series out of the book of Joshua. They talk through the importance of being faithful where God has placed you and the encouraging aspect of how God not only has a promise for your life, but a plan to enact that promise as well.

In their final conversation on our "Revival" Series, Pastor Chris and Bobby talk more in depth on how God desires genuine relationship over performance, calling all of us to remember, repent, and return to our original devotion. They talk through how even "good" things can distract from our true purpose and rob the intimacy of our relationship with God.

In week four of there conversations on "Revival", Pastor Chris and Bobby talk more about the concept of sanctification as a two-fold process of being set apart from sin and set apart to God. They outline practical steps for keeping oneself clean from spiritual defilement and highlight the significance of accountability, keeping in the word and developing a daily routine of self-examination.

As they continue their conversations on "Revival", Pastor Chris and Bobby dive deeper into the story of David and the concept of revival that it illustrates. Through David's story, they discuss the importance of personal revival and how detrimental minimizing or hiding our sin can be to ourselves and to those around us.

In the next episode of Beyond The Message, Pastor Chris and Bobby discuss how Revival requires a deep examination of our lives, laying aside the old self and putting on the new self in Christ. They further talk through the importance of repentance, returning to God, and living according to His guidance through meditation on His Word and sensitivity to the Holy Spirit. They give some practical steps on how to guard yourself against things that are not edifying and how to know when the "old self" may be resurfacing.

In our first episode back, Pastor Chris and Bobby kick off a new set of conversations on our series "Revival". They talk about spiritual renewal through three key actions: setting God as the priority of life, cleansing the house of the Lord, and restoring proper worship. They talk in depth about some practical ways to make God a priority in your schedule, meaningful times in daily prayer and how to make scripture reading more central to your daily decision-making.
