  • Episode #5: A Conversation about Ephesians 1

    Episode #5

    In this episode Aaron and Kevin get talking about Ephesians chapter 1. Our church is making a special emphasis on what it means to be One in Christ. In such a hotly divided country and world that we're living in, we sometimes wonder if unity is even a possibility. In this conversation, Aaron and Kevin help us to see that unity is a real possibility, but it's nothing we can achieve on our own. It's something only God can do. Yet, there are some practical ways we are involved. We hope you enjoy it.

  • Episode #4: A Conversation about Open Doors

    Episode #4

    On this episode, Pastor Aaron sits down to conversate with Marcus Huff who serves as our Director of Youth and Campus Ministry at Saints Peter and Paul. Their conversation revolves around the idea of hospitality and how we have been created by God to notice other people and welcome (even the stranger) into our households. If you've struggled to open up your home, either because of Covid, or just in general, these guys sympathize with you and share their own struggles to live lives of Biblical hospitality.

  • Episode #3: A Conversation about Loud Tables

    Episode #3

    In this week's episode, Aaron and Kevin conversate (that is, engage in conversation) about the book The Spiritually Vibrant Home. In particular, the conversation revolves around the chapter titled "Loud Tables." What does it look like for us to turn any conversation into a spiritual conversation? And what is it that God is speaking into our lives during this season of our world? The podcast gets into all of this and also spends some time explaining the heart and rationale behind the church's most recent decision to suspend in person worship services for 3 weeks. We hope you enjoy the conversation!

  • Loud Tables
    Spiritually Vibrant Households are ones that have spiritual vibrant conversations (aka "Loud Tables"). Did you know that you can turn any conversation into a spiritual conversation? It's what Jesus did in his ministry all the time. He would take a practical item and use it to teach people about the Kingdom of God.
    However, what we find out in this sermon is that through research by The Barna Group, practicing Christians are having fewer than 10 spiritual conversations each year! That's not much at all. That means Christians aren't talking about the faith.
    This sermon gives some practical examples of how to turn any conversation into a spiritual conversation.
