"I now pronounce you Husband and Wife." Few phrases are as universally recognized as this one. It is a phrase that represents one of the most joyful moments in a persons life. But how can this joyful moment lead to a joyful life together? Marriage roles might be one of the most dicey topics to discuss in the church. Our hope is that you can find satisfaction in the blessings of marriage that only God can offer. Join Jonathan, Corbin, and Anita as they discuss the roles of men and women, and how to have a marriage that honors each other and honors God. 

"Marriage is just a social construction." You've probably heard this phrase before. Is this true? Definitely not. Marriages are constructed by God. In Genesis 2, God lays out the playbook for marriage. Join Stephen, Jonathan, and Corbin as they discuss the biblical view of marriage as God intended it. 

Many of us probably have a love-hate relationship with the term "ground rules". The phrase "let's set some ground rules" gets used for a myriad of circumstances from relationships to office life and even in sports. If we are being honest though, we do often need ground rules. God created us to value order and, in doing so, He gave us some ground rules to follow as well. Join Corbin, Jonathan, and Stephen as they discuss these ground rules and how they affect us in every day life. 

For some of us rest comes easily. For others it is much more of a complicated issue. One thing is for sure...God created us to work and to rest. We see God model that rest on the 7th day of the creation story as He rested and dwelled among His creation.  But how do we rest? What are some things that often get in the way of rest? Join Jonathan, Corbin, and Stephen as they approach this biblical command to rest.

We know that we are made in "His image", but what does that really mean? Is it a physical thing, a spiritual thing, or something else entirely? Being that we are all create by God in the same way, how are we to interact with other "image bearers"? Join Corbin, Jonathan, and Stephen as we discuss what it means to be made in the Image of God. 

It says in Genesis 1 that God created the earth in all of these days. But what even is a day? How do we have light without a sun? Are dinosaurs here at this point in the story? Join Jonathan, Corbin, and Stephen as they unpack all of these questions and more.

Where does light come from? Many scientists have been baffled by this question since the beginning of time. How does it appear? If light is a substance, then what does that make darkness? Are aliens created with the Heavens? Join Stephen, Matt, and Jonathan as they discuss all of these questions and more.

God is one person, but also three people. But how is 1 also 3? Many scholars have tried to reason the Trinity. None have scratched the surface of who God is. In this episode, we talk about the significance of the Trinity. We also review the role of the Trinity in Creation. Join Matt, Jonathan, and Stephen as they start this new series Building on Foundations. 

We all have felt the hustle and bustle of Christmas. We want the best Holiday experience possible for ourselves and those around us. The hoops we have to jump through can lead us into a season that feels like a Feast or one that feels like a Famine. Whichever camp you find yourself in, know that you're not alone. During this season find ways to spread some cheer to those around you.  Our team here at, CitizenATX, wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas! See you in 2026.

Its the greatest time of the year!...at least for most of us... It is certainly easy to find people who experience immense joy during the Christmas season. But what do we say to those that are having a hard time during the holidays? How are we to interact with the grumpy "bah humbug" folks at our Christmas party's? How do we find Joy in a holiday season that looks different than those of the past? Join Jonathan, Matt, and Stephen as they discuss Grumpiness vs Joy during the holidays.
