Bible study - it's for everyone! But it isn't always clear how to do it ourselves, how to do it with other people, or how to start one if we have that desire. We hope this is helpful as you consider what it means to study God's word yourself and in pursuing study with others! 

God's word is essential, sweet, deep, wonderful, and far greater than words can fully express. It is how we know Him and what He is like and what He says about us and the world and how we are to relate with Him. However, spending time in God's word is a constant struggle for many in the church. Join Jason and I as we discuss this idea, how to properly frame our understanding of the Bible and how we should approach it as Christians. 

Join Andrew and I's conversation as we prepared to preach this glorious passage in Isaiah! Themes of justice, Image bearing, and resurrection shine brightly in the passage and our discussion. 

God calls us to a contentment of the soul in any and all circumstances. This is a high calling, especially considering the great trials and sufferings we face in this broken world. But Paul claims he has found the way to accomplish this in the book of Philippians, whether he has little or much, in need or in abundance. And God is pleased with our faith-filled contentment, so join us as we explore this idea and how we might go about fostering it in our personal walks with the Savior. 

Listen in on a pre-preaching conversation exploring Isaiah 36-37! In this narrative, God is established as The God of all the nations. The Assyrians threaten Jerusalem, the king seeks the Lord in faith-filled prayer, and then God does what He had planned: defeating the enemy and saving His people for His glory. 

Scripture commands every believer to use the gifts that God has given them to serve the Church! But sometimes it can be challenging to think through how to do that. What "counts" as serving the Church? Often, we only think about the Sunday morning opportunities: leading worship, preaching, keeping the toilet paper stocked. But serving the Church is so much broader than that. Listen and re-listen to this episode, and discover new ways to use your gifts to serve the Church! We hope this is a blessing to you. And if there are any ways we could serve you better or discuss a topic you have questions about, leave a comment and we would be happy to address it! 

Back with another LONG episode exploring a passage to be preached. This discussion on chapter 29 of Isaiah was fun and full of insights for us, and we hope proves to have the same effect on you! Thank you for listening, friends. 

Terms like "missional" and "mission-minded" are thrown around all the time, but what does that actually mean? What's the mission we claim and what's the theological basis for that mission? Join us as we discuss the missional nature of the Church! 

You don't get to choose your family! And if we are adopted into the family of God, made brothers and sisters, what are the obligations we owe one another in this family? Listen in as we explore what it means that the Church is covenantal!

"Confessional" is a word that gets thrown around, and can have a number of meanings depending on the context. In this episode, we discuss our understanding of how a church is confessional and what that looks like in the daily life of the Church. We hope this gives some clarity to the term and proves edifying to you!
