In this week’s episode, we’re talking to anyone who’s recently put their faith in Jesus—or maybe someone who’s been a Christian for a while but feels stuck or unsure of what’s next. The question is simple, but huge: I’m saved… now what?

It’s easy to get caught up in the emotion of the moment and the zeal that often comes with new faith—but when that fades, you’re left wondering: What does genuine faith really look like? What actually changes? What truly lasts? And how do we grow without turning the Christian life into a checklist?

We’ll talk about the early struggles and joys of following Jesus, the role of community, and how the gospel shapes both new and seasoned believers. Whether you’re just starting out, have been walking with Christ for years, or are helping others along the way, this conversation is for you.

In this week’s episode, we’re tackling a classic but often misunderstood question: Are all sins the same? It’s a question that stirs debate, conviction, and sometimes confusion, especially when trying to understand how God views sin versus how sin affects others around us.

We’ll dig into two angles: horizontally—how sin impacts our relationships with other people—and vertically—how every sin, no matter how “small,” is ultimately against a holy God. Is telling a lie the same as committing murder? Does God see all sin the same way? And how does the gospel help us think rightly about the weight and consequence of sin?

Join us as we explore how all sin is equally damning, but not all sin is equally damaging, and why understanding that difference sharpens our view of grace, God, and the cross of Christ.

#theology #reformed

In this week’s episode, we’re wrestling with a tough but vital question: Is faith alone under fire? James 2 has long been a battleground text in the debate over justification, especially when James says that a person is “justified by works and not by faith alone.” That sounds like a direct challenge to sola fide, the Reformation conviction that we are saved by faith in Christ alone. So what do we do with it?

We’ll take a closer look at the context of James' words, the nature of saving faith, and how this passage complements, not contradicts, Paul’s teaching on justification. 

Join us as we explore how works flow from faith, not toward salvation, and why holding fast to sola fide (faith alone) is still a hill worth dying on.

#theology #reformed

In this week’s episode, we’re tackling a crucial question: What do we do with Rome, especially when it comes to tradition? From the veneration of Mary to the role of the sacraments, the Catholic Church has long upheld practices that go beyond what Scripture clearly teaches. But how did these traditions develop? And why did the Reformers push back so strongly?

We’ll explore where Scripture and tradition collide, how the Reformers responded, and why the authority of God’s Word must remain central. In a world that often elevates heritage over truth, we’ll consider how holding fast to Scripture keeps us rooted in Christ, not in custom.

#theology #reformed

In this week’s episode, we’re asking a big question: what do we do with Rome—especially when it comes to salvation? The Reformers didn’t just disagree with the Catholic Church’s authority, they wrestled with how people are made right with God. Is it faith alone? Grace alone? Christ alone? Or is salvation mediated through the Church?

As we trace the roots of the Reformation, we’ll explore why this debate still matters today, and how clarity on the gospel keeps us anchored in truth, not tradition.

#theology #reformed

In this week’s episode, we explore the roots of the Protestant Reformation and how it challenged the authority of the Catholic Church. At the heart of the divide was a simple but vital question: where does final authority lie—Scripture or the Church? As we dig into the tension between tradition and truth, leadership and the Word, we’ll see that our view of authority shapes everything—how we read the Bible, how we follow Jesus, and how we stay grounded in the Gospel.

#theology #reformed

In this week’s episode, we explore how liberalism and modernism can distract and pull the church off course. When the Gospel is reshaped to fit modern tastes or cultural trends, it loses its edge and its power. The focus shifts from Christ to self, from grace to progress, from truth to whatever feels right. In a world chasing relevance, we’re called to hold fast to the unchanging truth of the Gospel: simple, unshakeable, and centered on Jesus.

In this week’s episode, we explore how Christian Nationalism and Theonomy can distract from the Gospel. When the church chases political power or seeks to impose biblical law on society, the message of Christ crucified can be lost. Instead of pointing to Jesus, these movements often shift the focus to nation, law, or control. This episode calls us back to the simplicity of the Gospel, rooted in grace, not grasping for power.

In this week’s episode, we look at how hyper-evangelicalism and American church culture can distract us from the Gospel. When faith turns into performance, platforms, and spiritual hustle, we lose sight of Jesus’ call to rest, humility, and dependence. This episode invites you to trade the grind for grace—and rediscover the simplicity of resting in Christ.

In this week’s episode, we kick off a new series on Gospel distractions—starting with legalism. We’ll explore how legalism pulls us away from the freedom Christ offers and distracts us from finding the rest we talked about last week. At the heart of this episode is the invitation to lay down the burden of earning and embrace the peace that comes from our secure position in Him. Our hope is to make the beauty of resting in Christ unmistakably clear.
