But, if you’re a Christian, then you have a greater, more overarching Calling “Big C.” In other words, as a Christian, regardless of your career, job, or role in life, you have a greater “Big C” Calling laid over that and that is to represent Jesus to those you encounter. The Apostle Paul calls this our Ambassador Role.

Sometimes it seems like Jesus gets sidelined in our weeks. How often do we take the time to discuss the small and large interventions that God has brought into our lives with family and friends? Why do we openly discuss our profession and not our faith? Mark and Sam discuss.

Do we choose burnout or is it inevitable.  It seems in this highly busy culture we live that we’re often teetering on the brink of burning out.  What does that look like?  How does that effect us and how can we handle it and even overcome.  Bryce gets together with Mark and Debbie to discuss the dangers and methods of overcoming burnout.

People love their personality tests.  Why do we do the things we do?  Why do the people we love do the things they do?  What motivates us?  What defines us?  These tests are beneficial for a lot of reasons.  There are also a lot of potential pitfalls if we are not careful.  In this episode, Mark, Linnea, and Bryce talk about the utility of these tests in the life of a Christian.

The topic of abortion is a divisive one. But, it’s one the church must engage in to be a light in our culture. Is this a political issue or a spiritual one? How do we bring grace, compassion and truth into this topic? How do we offer a soft landing to women embroiled in this battle? How can men step in and be a positive force of grace and truth? Bryce sits down with Tanelle Forgy of Pregnancy Counseling Services and OBGYN Dr. Alli Tobin-WIlliams and have a discussion about this and much much more.

As social media has grown the amount of information we share has expanded.  This has caused many people to close up and reject any kind of openness with others.  Others have gone the other way oversharing things usually reserved for close family and friends.  Bryce and Mark talk about the idea of transparency in relationships and transparency with God.  What are the dangers, fears and freedoms that come from being transparent about who you are?  How do we know when it’s safe to share?  Let us know your thoughts @foothillscp on twitter or instagram.

All things are permissible, but not all things are beneficial. We live in a time when it seems like many people want to restrict speech all around the world. What do we think of free speech? What is a Christians role in culture in how they interact with the calling to be peacemakers and glorify God in with their lives? Mark and Bryce discuss.
