Do good things in your life ever become ultimate things? In this conversation, we unpack how easily sports, money, relationships, success, or even ministry can become functional saviors in our hearts.

In this episode, we talk about how sports shift from entertainment to idolatry, and why time, money, and mood are often the clearest indicators. We discuss Sunday games, parenting decisions, athlete testimonies, and how Christians can enjoy sports without letting them shape our priorities — or our worship.

What if everything you have—your money, time, talents, career, and opportunities—was never actually yours? In this conversation, we unpack the biblical doctrine of stewardship and why it’s far bigger than money. Scripture is clear: God owns everything, and one day every Christian will give an account—not for salvation, but for faithfulness.

In this episode, Pastor Tony Wood and Pastor Dean Defuria dive deep into New Year’s resolutions, discipline vs. motivation, and what it really means to live with the end in mind. From Jonathan Edwards’ resolutions to biblical self-control, stewardship, legacy, and family discipleship, this conversation challenges the way most Christians think about goals.

Most Christians never disciple anyone, and this episode gets honest about why. We talk about how churches often settle for content instead of the life-on-life model Jesus showed, where people actually see your faith in action. Looking at the way Jesus trained the Twelve and Paul trained faithful men, we explore why so many believers feel unready or unsure and why simple, intentional relationships still shape people more than any program ever could.

In this episode, Pastor Tony and Dean dive deep into the two-realm reality the Bible describes—one seen, one unseen. Tony recounts a vivid and disturbing encounter with a demonized man, explaining what actually happens in real-life spiritual confrontations, how the enemy targets the mind, and why modern Western Christians often mislabel spiritual problems as merely psychological. This conversation exposes the schemes of the enemy, explores the biblical framework for spiritual warfare, and explains how believers can fight without fear and without falling into sensationalism.

In this episode we distinguish biblical miracles from extraordinary providence. Not every unusual event is a “miracle” because that erodes the meaning of the term. Watch how Scripture ties miracles to periods of new revelation, and argues for careful definitions rooted in church history and the purpose of signs.

Every Christian wrestles with sin, but does that mean you’re not truly saved? In this episode, we unpack what the Bible teaches about sanctification, the ongoing battle with sin, and the assurance believers can have in Christ. We also delve into some theology... is sanctification synergistic or monergistic? Or, neither?
