Welcome to the DISRUPTION podcast. An exhilarating journey of rediscovering the truth about Christ. For all people of all stories ages 18-29. Get ready for thought-provoking conversations, personal stories, and intense truths as we dive into disrupting culture and placing Jesus at the center of it all.

This is... disruption.

It's easy in small groups for people to each talk about what the Bible means to them without actually getting to the truth about what the Bible means. Is this a problem? Should evangelicals at least study the Bible a bit deeper instead of keeping it superficial? If so, where do we start? Find out in this next episode where Alex and Josh dive into the Word with Todd Schenck, where, of course, we hope to be disrupting culture and placing Jesus at the center of it all!

Todd Schenck is the high school Bible teacher at NorthPointe Christian. He teaches hermeneutics and worldviews. Todd graduated from Butler University and the Grand Rapids Theological Seminary. He's married with three children and a grandson.

Our phones can drive us crazy. Pornography, social media, likes, YouTube consumption, you name it. Not only phones but also many other aspects of life for 18-29-year-olds can be addicting. "I just want this person to like me." "I just can't stop thinking about getting attention." "I just want to eat another cookie."

Today we brought in a special guest Gary Heim, who is a practicing counselor with True North ministries. In this episode, Gary Heim talks about our attachments, where they come from, and what to do with them. In fact, it's not a question about what we do, but about what God does with them. Find out in this next episode with Alex, Josh, and Nehemiah where we disrupt the culture and place Jesus at the center of it all.

In this episode, we revisit our discussion about Jordan Peterson with McCormack Wyn (aka Mac). We are also disrupting church culture and placing Jesus at the center of it all. Who's to say where the best theology or the best doctrine comes from? What do we mean by the word "belief"? We are not the experts. Fortunately, we do know the most important truth to believe so we can be saved: Jesus Christ died for our sins and rose again, and to have eternal life we must put our trust in Him.
