267. Should Christians Watch Stranger Things?

In this episode we explore the big question, should Christians watch Stranger Things, and why the answer is not as simple as yes or no. Instead, we look at how followers of Jesus can practise wise and thoughtful discernment with the stories we take in. The conversation moves beyond rules and into formation, asking what shapes our imagination, what draws us towards Christ, and what quietly pulls us away.

266. Why Am I so Impatient and How Do I Become More Patient (Virtue 7)

In this episode, we take a thoughtful look at patience, why we lose it, and how it can be rebuilt in everyday life.  We also explore how the Bible frames patience, drawing on passages that reveal God’s character, the role of the Spirit, and the way waiting becomes an act of trust rather than frustration. 

Finally, we offer practical steps for growing patience in real situations, helping us respond with clarity rather than reaction. This episode invites us to slow down, notice what is happening within us, and choose a posture that brings strength, steadiness, and hope to the moments that test us most.

264. Love that heals, Charity (Virtue 6)

In this week’s episode, we explore the heavenly virtue of Charity-love in action, the virtue that heals both giver and receiver. We’ll look at what true charity really means, why it’s more than generosity, and how it becomes the antidote to greed and self-interest. Through story and reflection, we’ll unpack Augustine’s warning that “charity is no substitute for justice withheld,” and consider how love that is real must also be fair. Join us as we ask: how can we live out a charity that not only comforts but also transforms?
