In today`s episode, alongside our new guests, Adam and Julia, we dive into the significance of the washing of feet as a sign of love done by our Lord Jesus in the chapter 13 of the gospel of John.

Am I in darkness? It's a question most of us ask quietly, usually when we're unsure who we are or where our life is actually headed. In this episode of the Root Issues Podcast, we open the first verses of John 1 and talk about what Scripture says about identity, life, and light — and why the darkness never gets the final word.

John begins his gospel not with a birth story but with a claim about who Jesus is from the very beginning: the Word, the source of life, and the light of men. That has direct consequences for how you understand yourself. If life and light come from Him, then your identity isn't something you build, perform for, or lose in a hard season — it's something you receive.

We work through the questions a lot of people carry but rarely say out loud: How do I know if I'm walking in darkness? Why does my sense of identity keep shifting? And what does it actually mean that the light shines in the darkness and the darkness has not overcome it?

Suffering doesn't stay neatly in one corner of life — it shows up at the dinner table, in our marriages, in the way we raise our kids, and in the quiet questions we carry to God. In this episode of the Root Issues Podcast, we sit down to talk honestly about why we suffer and what it means to walk through hardship as a family rooted in Christian faith.

Welcome back to the Root Issues Podcast and our series through the Gospel of John! In this episode, we explore one of the central themes of John's Gospel: identity — who Jesus is, and who we are because of Him.

The Gospel of John was written so that we may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. But John doesn't stop there — he also shows us what that belief means for us: that to all who receive Him, He gives the right to become children of God. We look at how John reveals the identity of Jesus and how that truth transforms our own identity as believers.

In a world where everyone is searching for identity, the Gospel of John gives us the answer: we discover who we truly are only when we discover who Jesus truly is.

Welcome to a brand new series on the Root Issues Podcast! In this first episode, we begin our journey through the Gospel of John with an introduction to the book and a deep dive into John Chapter 1.

Who wrote the Gospel of John? Why is it so different from Matthew, Mark, and Luke? And what does John mean when he says "the Word became flesh"?

In this episode, along with our guests, Kaylee and Gage, discuss how to trust God in every situation of our lives, ultimately becoming unshakeable in our faith.

In today`s episode, we discuss about holiness in the context of Hebrews chapter 12.

In this episode, we unpack the theology behind the last chapter of the book of Hebrews.

In today's episode of Root Issues, we dig into Hebrews 11 and ask one of the most foundational questions of the Christian life: what is faith?

Along the way we talk about what biblical faith really is (and what it isn't), why it's impossible to please God without it, and how the same faith that moved these ancient saints is meant to shape our everyday lives.

Whether faith feels strong right now or you're wrestling with doubt, this conversation is an invitation to look again at the God who is worthy of our trust.

in this episode of Root Issues, along with our new special guest, Dan Dangler, we discuss what if the Bible's "Do not be afraid" wasn't just a command — but a promise? Join us as we explore what God actually says about anxiety, fear, and the peace He wants for your life. Practical. Biblical. Life-changing.
