Fellow Heirs

This week on Fellow Heirs, we sit down with a young man from our church to hear his testimony of growing up in Honduras. Raised in a close Christian family, he also witnessed the reality of gang violence and loss in his community, including the death of members from his church.

In this episode, he shares about coming to the United States for school, adjusting to a new life and culture, and how the Lord faithfully guided him through it all while continuing to grow in his faith.

We’re back with Part Two of our conversation with a CPA and a software engineer from our church on the topic of artificial intelligence. If you haven’t listened to Part One yet, start there — this picks up right where we left off. The discussion goes deeper as we continue to explore how AI is reshaping their work, the opportunities it presents, and what it means to navigate all of this as a Christian.

Please leave us a review! It really does help the show.

THIS WEEK’S RIDDLE:
I am a word of meanings three. Three ways of spelling me there be. The first is an odour, a smell if you will. The second some money, but not in a bill. The third is past tense, a method of passing things on or around. Can you tell me now, what these words are, that have the same sound?

In this episode, Nick and Isaac sit down with two men from Christ the Word Church  — a CPA and a software engineer — for a wide-ranging conversation about artificial intelligence and how it’s changing the way they work. From accounting to coding, they share firsthand experiences, practical insights, and some thought-provoking perspectives on where this technology is headed. This conversation was so good it ran over two hours, so we’re bringing it to you in two parts. Tune in next week for Part Two.

In this episode, we sit down with Pastor Jake Long to talk about conspiracy theories! What they are, why they’re so compelling, and how Christians should think about them. After walking through some of the most well-known conspiracies, we turn to the heart of the issue: a growing distrust of authority and a desire to be “in the know.”

But beneath that, we ask a deeper question: what does this reveal about us? Is our attraction to conspiracy thinking rooted in pride? In a rejection of authority? Ultimately, we consider how a lack of trust in God’s fatherly rule can shape the way we see the world.

This week’s Lit Hour is a packed one! Twelve guys in a basement talking through the short story Araby by James Joyce. You need not to have read the story to hear this episode, although it is helpful to read it yourself. 

In this episode, we discuss topics such as childhood crushes and the importance of fiction. A big goal with Lit Hour is to use good literature to push us toward truth. We hope you enjoy this conversation.

In this episode, we sit down with one of the pastors here at CTW to talk about the true meaning of Easter; not just as a holiday, but as the foundation of the Christian faith.

We walk through the story from Maundy Thursday to Good Friday to Resurrection Sunday, and discuss why the resurrection of Jesus Christ changes everything. What do people often misunderstand about Easter? Why is the resurrection so essential to Christianity? And how should it shape the way we live the rest of the year?

Whether you’ve heard the Easter story your whole life or are wrestling with doubts, this conversation aims to bring clarity, depth, and renewed awe for what Christ has done.

Book recommendation by Andrew:
Persecution in the Early Church by Herbert Workman
