What if the way you see your life on earth is completely backwards?

In 1 Peter 1, we’re reminded that we are pilgrims — temporary residents living in a place that is not our true home. And when that truth settles into your heart, it changes everything.

This episode walks through the breathtaking reality of our salvation:
We were chosen by God before time began.
We were born again into a living hope.
We have an inheritance that cannot perish, spoil, or fade.
And even our trials are not meaningless — they are refining a faith that is more precious than gold.

Peter isn’t writing to comfortable Christians. He’s writing to suffering believers and reminding them that their hope is alive because Jesus is alive.

If you feel weary, discouraged, or unsettled in this world, this episode is for you.

Your hope isn’t fragile.
Your future isn’t uncertain.
Your inheritance is already reserved in heaven.

Listen now and be reminded what it truly means to live as people of hope

Who is Jesus at His very core?

Who He most deeply is.

In Matthew 11:28–30, Jesus gives us the only explicit description of His own heart: “I am gentle and lowly in heart.” In this episode, we look closely at what that means — and why it changes everything for discouraged, weary, burdened believers.

Is Jesus disappointed in you?
Does He retreat when you fail?
Is His patience thinning?

Or is His instinct toward sinners and sufferers not withdrawal — but compassion?

We explore:

• What “gentle” and “lowly” truly mean in the Greek

• Why our burdens actually qualify us to come to Him

• How Jesus reverses the clean/unclean system by moving toward the broken

• The difference between His wrath toward sin and His heart toward repentant sinners

• Why His yoke is not a heavier burden, but a kindness

• How the same Christ who wept, healed, and touched lepers then is the same today

Jesus does not merely act loving. He is love.
His mercy is not occasional. It flows from His deepest heart.

If you have ever suspected that God is stiff arming, this episode is for you.

Come to Him. He drives none away.

We love the idea of Christian community, but living it out is another story. Real community will inconvenience you. It will require effort. It will stretch your comfort. And yet, Scripture makes it clear: we were never meant to follow Christ alone.

In this episode, we look at the early church and what it actually meant to do life together. We talk honestly about why community feels hard, why showing up matters more than feelings, and why biblical community is worth the cost. This isn’t about finding perfect people, it’s about committing to imperfect people for the sake of Christ.

If you’ve been craving deeper connection, struggling to stay consistent, or wondering why community hasn’t felt life-giving yet, this episode is for you.

The most shocking story ever told isn’t found in the news. It’s found in the gospel.

A holy God did not abandon a sinful people. He pursued them.
The God we rebelled against became the God who would suffer in our place.

In this episode, we slow down to remember the wonder of salvation. A story so glorious that Scripture tells us even angels long to look into it (1 Peter 1:12). And yet, over time, the gospel can begin to feel familiar. Even ordinary.

This conversation is a call to awe.
A reminder that the gospel is not something we move past, but the very power that saves us, sustains us, and transforms our lives.

Whether you have followed Jesus for years or you are just beginning to ask questions, this episode invites you to behold again the beauty of the gospel, from the garden to the cross, and to marvel at the love of a God who would do this to redeem His people.

In this episode, we slow down and step into Advent, the season the Church has carried for centuries to teach us how to long for Christ. Before the noise, the to-dos, and the rush of December, Advent invites us to pause, breathe, and remember that we live between two arrivals: Jesus has come, and Jesus will come again.

We talk about the deep ache of Israel’s waiting, the beauty of the incarnation, the hope of His promised return, and how to approach Christmas differently this year with a heart that is awake, expectant, and centered on Christ. If you feel tired, hurried, or spiritually scattered, this episode will reorient your soul toward the One who stepped into our brokenness, and the One who will return in glory.

Come, Lord Jesus.
Teach us to wait well.

The last words Peter called out to his wife before she was martyred & the same words scripture commands us: Remember Jesus.

The call of Christ is a call to die. A true disciple of Jesus must count the cost, carry their cross, and die. The American church values comfort over Christ, but this is not what Jesus has called us to. What has your christianity cost you?

Encouragement for the one who has been praying for something for a long time & thinks the Lord has forgotten about them.

Whether this year has been your hardest or your happiest — remember this truth: you weren’t made to stay here.

When the world breaks your heart, it’s a reminder you were made for another..
When the world blesses your heart, it serves as a shadow of something greater to come.

Either way, don’t settle here.
You are a pilgrim, not a permanent resident.
A citizen of heaven, not a permanent resident of earth.

This episode is a call to live with eternity in view, to loosen our grip on comfort, and lift our eyes to Christ.
The world isn’t our home.
But our Savior is coming to take us there.
