May 16, 2017Episode 13-Resurrection and You (or Why the Resurrection Matters for Me)Following last week's discussion of the grand, cosmic revolution of the Resurrection, Pastors Steve and Drew bring this conversation home to you...and what it all means for you. By looking at the resurrection's impact (again, think big picture) they look at what it means to be a person who lives each day impacted by the resurrection. Through their usual silly banter, they unpack the idea of resurrection and how we can live each day who proclaim this Good News...in thought, word and deed....more41minPlay
May 09, 2017Episode 12-The Real Impact of Resurrection (or The Cosmic Change)By returning to the story of resurrection, Steve and Drew walk around and explore the bigger implication of Jesus rising from the grave on the third day. In previous episodes, they explored the what and how. And now they look around the why. They handle questions like, "Did Jesus die so we can go to heaven?" and "What does it mean for us to go to heaven?" and "What does Jesus rising REALLY mean for me and the world right now?" Take a listen and join in the conversation!...more38minPlay
May 02, 2017Episode 11-"Doubting" Thomas? (Or "Honest Faith" Thomas?)In the Gospel of John 20: 24-31 a story is told about a disciple who questions the validity of the other disciples' claims of having met a resurrected Jesus. Centuries of tradition have named him "Doubing Thomas." In today's episode, Steve and Drew wrestle with the wrestling match of faith vs. doubt and show them to be more related than many will have us believe. Through today's discussion, they unpack many ideas that will welcome more and more to the Christian conversation, believers and doubters (and everyone in between) alike....more41minPlay
April 25, 2017Episode 10-The Four Gospels and Easter (or How Batman Helps You Understand)Looking at each of the four Gospels of the New Testament, Pastor Steve and Pastor Drew look at all the differences and similarities of how the four Gospel writers tell the story of Jesus' resurrection on Easter. By framing it with the saga of Batman and referring to Tommy Boy, they look at how these four writers are telling the same story, but with their own flavors.

April 18, 2017Episode 9-Easter (or How the World Changed in Less than One Day)Easter is here....Christ is Risen!...and now its time to talk about it. Pastor Steve and Pastor Drew jump in to understanding this story as far more than just, "Yep, he rose" and looking at the world shaking, reality destroying, and hope granting new life of Jesus. By looking at the story through many different lenses (and peppering in their usual nerdy humor and pop culture references) they show you how this story is more impactful and life changing then you ever imagined before!...more45minPlay
April 11, 2017Episode 8-Holy Week Part 2 (or Arrest, Trial, and Death)After last week's journey from Palm Sunday to the Last Supper, Steve and Drew follow up this week by jumping in with both feet to the arrest, trial, and crucifixion of Jesus on Good Friday.

March 28, 2017Episode 6-Radical Love (or What's Love Got to Do With It?)Pastor Drew and Pastor Steve took everyone on an odd journey in the last episode while discussing Abraham and others. However, in their quest for perfect nerdiness, they missed a few things. This week, they explore the radical love of God that is set forward in God's covenants all throughout the Bible with his people and becomes embodied in Jesus. As Lent comes to a close and Easter is on the horizon, it's a perfect time to consider the never-ending, crazy, always flowing love of God....more33minPlay
March 21, 2017Episode 5-Adoption (Or How the Old Testament Makes Sense to Christians)Pastor Steve and Pastor Drew are back to their usual nerdy antics. This time, they're making sense of how Lent and especially Easter are really just a continuation of a much older story. By walking nearly cover-to-cover through the Bible, Steve and Drew reflect on how the stories of the Old Testament are not a distant story, from a distant people. Instead, they show how the Old Testament is the story of Christianity. Listen in!...more32minPlay
March 14, 2017Episode 4-Lent What? (Or why we have Lent and Easter)In this week's episode, numero 4, Steve and Drew pause their forward progress on the "what" and "how" of Lent and go back to the "why." Looking at the history of the festival (including Easter) they look to the reasons for these 40 or so days. And then they go even further...all the way back to Genesis...to understand the death and resurrection of Jesus. All of this while framing the conversation with the Star Wars Saga...yes, they really went there. Take a listen and join the conversation!...more33minPlay
