October 22 685: Am I Too Weak to Be Used by God?
How do our sins, our shortcomings, effect our capacity or ability to be used by God? How do we balance grace and accountability? Is it possible to destroy the holy spirit's power in our own lives through what we do?

Ben, David and Luke explore this weighty topic.

October 15 684: Do You Have to Be Like People to Reach Them?
Knowing your scene - the place where you find yourself most often - is important, but what if you are nothing like the people in it? How do you share the love of Jesus with them if you appear as an alien; as a foreigner?

The regulars draw on decades of history: what works, what doesn't work, and how they've seen God work in and through them to reach people from various walks of life - "scenes" much different than their own at times.

September 10 679: The Main Character Problem Nobody in Church Talks About
The world often says we should live our lives as if we are the main character in our story - but is this a biblical way of doing things? Are we sabotaging what God has for us, by insisting things play out with us at the center?

Ben and David address this prevalent phenomenon that we see playing out, not only outside of church, but inside of it too.
