Is telling a lie ever okay? Are you hurting your relationships with the words you speak or don't speak? To kick off their summer break, Heather and Jamie recently went to see a movie together that left them asking themselves these very questions. In this episode, they explore the nuance of communication, navigating people's feelings, and telling the truth even when it's hard.

What should we make of the brokenness and suffering in our world? What is God in control of? In this episode, Whit sits down with one of our Tulsa Pastors, Chris Turner, to wrap up our series on Joseph. Chris shares about his experience of losing his mother and how that tragedy shaped his walk with God. They explore views on the sovereignty of God, how He can use evil for good, and get vulnerable about what it's like to prepare and preach a message.

Why should you forgive others? Is forgiving someone letting them off the hook? Forgiveness is at the core of the story of Joseph and at the core of the biblical message. It's not as simple as forgive and forget. In fact, forgiveness, like most things in life, is complicated and nuanced. In this episode, Whit and Lyndsey talk about the stages of forgiveness and paint of picture of what biblical forgiveness truly is.

But it's only through testing seasons in life that we're given the opportunity to be forged shaped into who God created us to be and prepared for all that He has for us. In this episode, Whit and Casey talk about the nature of tests, give some practical steps for setting boundaries, and wrestle with the complexity of life and faith.

We're living in a time where people often feel like they should only do things that connect with their dreams, heart, or purpose. But it was never Joseph's dream to run an Egyptian household or prison. In this episode, Pastor Whit sits down with our Founding Pastor, Willie George, to talk more about the significance of diligence, desperation, and leaning in when things get hard. They share personal experiences of being diligent in hard times and some powerful insights from the story of Joseph.

This is a special bonus episode of Tell Me More About! Whit and Casey dig into Genesis 38: the bizarre and seemingly out-of-place story of Judah and Tamar.

Sometimes, you read something in the Bible and think woah, what is that? Why is this chapter included? How can we understand it in the context of the culture it was written in? It's important not to blow past these instances but to turn back and investigate. So, that's exactly what we're going to do!

Tell Me More About is a podcast with our Lead Pastor Whit George. He answers questions and talks about things he didn't get to talk about on the weekend.

Joseph is an epic story within another epic story: the book of Genesis. Throughout Genesis, we see God's promise that He will redeem creation through a family. But this gets complicated, because, well, family is messy. In episode one, Whit and Casey talk about analyzing and navigating family culture and answer questions like, why should I have to do something about something that was done to me? How do I fix a situation that feels broken beyond repair? Where do I even start? Watch the episode on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbdmxUkqNfo
