August 17, 2023 How Should I View Money? | Tell Me More
Whether you've got a lot or a little, money keeps a tight grip on our hearts. But when we shift our focus to God, we are willing to do whatever He asks.

In this episode, Pastors Whit and Willie George talk about shifting their perspective on money, being connected to the God of endless supply, and radical generosity.

Scripture is meant to be experienced, but we can't experience it (and run the risk of shallow spirituality) if we're simply reading it and moving on.

July 20, 2023 The Tension of Justice | Tell Me More
There's a tension when it comes to justice that we have to wrestle with: the tension of compassion and judgment, but also the tension of the individual and the community. Life isn't black and white, and the Proverbs make this clear. So, in a complicated and broken world, how can we become people of justice?

In this episode, Whit and Casey talk about the nature of justice, navigating nuanced situations, and reconciling the goodness of God with the injustice we still see in the world. Show notes: In this episode, Whit references the book Dominion by Tom Holland

July 11, 2023 Uncomfortable Conversations | Life in Motion
Heather and Jamie have decided it's time to have "the talk" with their younger kids. We often don't talk about certain things because it feels too scary or complicated. But when we're willing to tell the truth, we become safe places for our kids.

In this episode, they tackle topics like walking in humility with your spouse, broaching uncomfortable conversations, and telling the truth – even when it's painful or awkward.

DISCLAIMER: this episode talks about sex and puberty, so be advised when listening around young children.

July 04, 2023 Trusting God With the Big and the Small | Life in Motion
Do you ever find that it's easy to trust God with some things and hard to trust Him with others? We're often selective about what we fully give to the Lord, especially when it comes to our kids.

Parenting (especially young adults) has tested Jamie and Heather's trust in God in big ways recently. In this episode, they talk about hair appointments, playing God, and trusting the Lord with their feelings: big and small.

June 29, 2023 The Power of Words in Relationship | Tell Me More
You've probably heard the old adage, "sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me." And you've probably come to learn that it just simply isn't true. Proverbs has a lot to say about the power of words: "The tongue has the power of life and death . . ." Proverbs 18:21.

How we speak to each other, give and receive correction, and work through conflict matters. In this episode, Whit and Casey explore the power of words in our relationships. They discuss speaking with integrity, having hard conversations with friends, and the hope we have because of the gospel.
