In this episode of God Talk, Pastor Greg returns after bicep tendon surgery brace and all to tackle a subject we often misunderstand: Evil. When most of us think of evil, we picture war crimes, mass shootings, or horrific acts splashed across the news. But what if evil is far more subtle and far closer to home?

Drawing from the historic concept of the 7 Deadly Sins, Pastor Greg reframes evil not as something only “Bad People” do, but as attitudes and behaviors that quietly take root in everyday life. From pride and greed to lust, envy, gluttony, wrath, and sloth, this episode challenges listeners to look inward rather than outward.

In this episode of God Talk, Pastor Greg takes on a timely and deeply personal topic: Illusion versus Reality. In a world shaped by AI, social media, gossip, and misinformation, how can we truly know what’s real and how sure are we of what we believe?

Join Pastor Greg as we kick off a brand-new sermon series by stepping out of Elijah’s shadow and into the remarkable story of his successor, Elisha. While Elijah is often remembered as one of the greatest prophets of the Old Testament taken to heaven in a whirlwind—this message reminds us that Elisha was no spiritual afterthought. In fact, Scripture records twice as many miracles through Elisha, all flowing from one bold request: a double portion of God’s Spirit.

If you’re facing uncertainty, exhaustion, pain, or fear as a new year approaches, this sermon is a call to lift your eyes off the problems and fix them on Christ. Ask for the bigger things. Seek the greater gifts. Follow faithfully. And trust that God is gracious to give far more than we imagine to those who keep walking with Him.

Every Christmas, the same stories get told and many of them aren’t actually biblical.

But this episode goes beyond trivia. Pastor Greg explains why these myths matter, how churches often unintentionally reinforce them, and why confusing fantasy with fact can weaken our understanding of the gospel itself.
