This week we are joined again by the whole Equipping Team: Jordan, Marie, Chris, and Q.

Coming off of the 2024 Election the team dives head first into faith and politics. We discuss our own personal convictions and work through how followers of Christ should engage todays political climate.

Today, we have a special guest. You've heard her names mentioned in many episodes, welcome to the podcast Jessica Navarro!

Jessica and Marie talk today about the idea of having disciplines in place, so that you're opening your Bible or worshipping God even when you don't really feel like it.

Today, Brandon discusses the importance of self care and the ways we see that in the Bible.

Often times, there is a stigma around taking time to rest your mind and care for it, but today Brandon goes into detail about why self care is actually vital to our spiritual health.

Today's episode Jordan is joined by Colby Garman from Pillar Church of Dumfries. Colby is a teaching pastor at Pillar, which is the place where Jordan did his first internship up in Washington D.C.

They talk about multiplication and the importance of it, a conversation that we've covered before, but we wanted to hear a little more from Colby!

Today, Marie and Kate discuss the seasons of transition they're entering.

While Marie's is a little further off, she continues to speak into just every day transitions. Kate speaks about graduating and being in a hard spot with finding time for the Lord and what that looks like her in her every day walk with the Lord.

Today, Jordan discusses the topic of evil and the questions that Christian leaders can get from others.

This is something we talked about on Sunday as well, just a continuation of the topic that includes things that weren't mentioned on Sunday! We hope you enjoy!

Today we're joined by our college pastor, Austin Hagan. He speaks on personal convictions and what it looks like using a story in the Bible from 1 Kings.

Today Kate and Marie tackle the topic of hearing God or hearing the enemy. Something that a lot of people have asked for guidance on and a topic that can be for new Christians or for those who have been following Jesus for a long time.

Hope you guys enjoy!

On today's episode, Jordan talks about the cultures of a Connect Group. These are Jordan's ideas of what can make a healthy Connect Group or small group culture.

This week, Austin recaps what Connection College covered last week: Jesus is the provider for all of us.

He specifically talks about John 6 and the need for help that we must admit in order to be able to fully surrender to Jesus. We hope you enjoy this weeks episode!
