  • Why Are We Not Telling?

    In 2 Kings 7, four men found food while an entire city was starving. Once they realized what they had found, they asked, “We are not doing right. This day is a day of good news.”

    We have been given even greater news in Jesus Christ. So why can it feel so hard to tell someone? In this episode, we talk about fear, the difference between sharing the gospel and trying to change someone’s heart, and how knowing God is the one who saves frees us to speak with love and honesty.

    Scripture: 2 Kings 6:24–7:20; Romans 10:13–15

  • You Are Not Forgotten By God

    Our circumstances can cause us to believe that God has forgotten us. Scripture shows us this is a lie from the enemy... your God has not forgotten you!

  • What Is Your Theology of Home?

    What if the ordinary work of home isn’t getting in the way of your worship, but is actually one of the places you learn to worship?

    Inspired by Phylicia Masonheimer’s Every Home a Foundation, we’re talking about the theology behind the everyday rhythms of home: washing dishes, folding laundry, cleaning, cooking, and opening our doors to others. These repetitive, often unseen tasks can become liturgies that form us in gratitude, service, stewardship, and faithfulness.

    Because our theology shouldn’t only shape what we believe on Sunday. Eventually, our theology reaches the kitchen sink.

    Whether you live in a dorm, an apartment, your parents’ house, or a home filled with kids, the place God has given you today can become a place of worship, discipleship, and hospitality.

  • Do You Know Who Your God Is?

    What you believe about God changes the way you face everything else.

    Israel saw giants and forgot the God who had already parted seas, provided in the wilderness, and carried them every step of the way. And we can do the same. When life feels uncertain, fear gets loud, and the future looks nothing like we expected, we can become more aware of what is in front of us than who is with us.

    This episode is about fighting spiritual forgetfulness and learning to face what feels impossible in light of who your God is.

    Deuteronomy 1:19–46; 2:7; 3:7–9

  • Your New Identity Under Grace

    Most believers are stuck in a cycle of sin, guilt, and shame, unsure how to truly experience God's grace and freedom. Logan Stringfield shares a transformative perspective that will radically reshape how you view your sin in light of God's forgiveness, revealing that grace isn’t permission to sin more, but power to overcome it.

    In this episode, Logan breaks down the misinterpretation of grace that keeps many Christians trapped in guilt, and how understanding the Bible’s depiction of King David offers a life-changing blueprint. You'll discover how David’s understanding of God's grace allowed him to see himself as blameless before God despite his failures—and how you can walk in that same assurance. Logan emphasizes that God's grace is greater than any sin, and that our view of ourselves and God is often limited by Satan’s lies.

    We explore vital topics like the cycle of sin and repentance, the destructive power of guilt, and the difference between living in shame versus stepping into the freedom Christ offers. You'll learn how Satan seeks to minimize God's work in your life, convincing you that your past defines your future, but God sees you through the lens of redemption, not record. Logan shares practical ways to extend grace to yourself, break free from shame, and live with confidence in your forgiven state.

    This episode is a life raft for anyone weary of feeling stuck, overwhelmed by shame, or questioning whether God's love is enough. It’s perfect for believers who want to experience the true power of grace daily, and for those longing to see others through eyes of compassion, forgiveness, and hope. Don’t miss this critical reminder: God's grace is bigger than your past, and His love is deeper than your failures.

    Logan Stringfield is an occupational therapist and passionate communicator of God’s grace, known for his insightful and relatable teaching rooted in Scripture. His message today challenges us to leave the trash of guilt behind and embrace the victorious life Jesus bought for us on the cross.

    Why settle for a version of Christianity limited by shame when true freedom is available? Tune in to discover how to leave the cycle of sin, shame, and regret behind, and walk in the powerful grace that redefines who you are in Christ.

  • Living Like We Have A Living Hope

    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

  • The Heart of Christ For Sinners and Sufferers

    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.

  • You need Christian Community. Even when it costs you.

    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

    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.

  • What if this December was different?

    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.
