In this episode, we’re focusing on the church and how she shapes our life together as believers. Alicia Wong joins us for a thoughtful and honest conversation about what it means to belong to the body of Christ. 

We talk about everything from church traditions we grew up with to walking through church hurt. Alicia shares why the church is essential to the Christian life and how we can grow in our love for her, even when she is imperfect.

We continue our Essentials of the Faith series with a powerful conversation on the Holy Spirit. Author and Bible teacher Jeannie Cunnion joins us to talk about who the Holy Spirit is, why we sometimes misunderstand or ignore Him, and how essential He is to the Christian life.

Jeannie shares personal stories, scriptural insights, and encouragement for those who feel unsure or hesitant when it comes to the Spirit’s role. We talk about Pentecost, the Trinity, the fruit of the Spirit, and what it means to truly yield to the Spirit in everyday moments.

We’re continuing our Essentials of the Faith series with teacher and author Elizabeth Woodson! In this episode, Elizabeth W. joins Angie and Elizabeth H. to talk about what it means to be made in the image of God. You’ll hear about how image bearing is tied to reflection and relationship, and how sin distorts that design but grace restores it. This conversation unpacks why all people are image bearers, why sin matters, and how the gospel gives us the power and hope to live differently.

Today, we're joined by Bible teacher and author Kelly Minter to explore a foundational element of our faith: the attributes of God and how they are revealed through His works. As part of our ongoing Essentials of the Faith series, this conversation centers on how knowing God rightly shapes everything else we believe.

One highlight of the conversation includes a powerful discussion on lament as an act of worship. Far from being a contradiction, lament reveals the perfect goodness of God because we can acknowledge the evil of sin because we've seen what true goodness is.
