In this episode, we unpack what semper reformanda—“always reforming”—actually means for the church today. We look back at what the Reformers were trying to correct, walk through the Five Solas and why they still matter, and ask how these themes shape what it means to be “reformed” in our own context. We also talk about how the call to continual reformation should shape our life together. Ultimately, we explore how the Five Solas still reform us, where true change really happens, and why the work of reformation must begin in the heart.

In this week’s episode we talk about what it really means to have heroes in the Christian life—and how complicated that can be. We share some of the people who’ve inspired us, both past and present, and what first drew us to them—their courage, theology, or maybe the way they lived out their faith. But we also get honest about their shortcomings and how easy it is to overlook those when we admire someone. The goal isn’t to tear them down or put them on a pedestal, but to think about how we can appreciate their impact, learn from their mistakes, and keep our focus where it belongs—on Christ, the only truly flawless hero of our faith.

In a fun, lighthearted episode die-hard fans face off to discuss the differences between Nebraska Huskers and LSU football. From this we springboard into a discussion on differences between Southern and Midwest cultures and more importantly, why the gospel transcends cultural differences.

Today on the podcast we welcome special guest Andrew Siemonsma, a member of Faith Baptist, to talk about the subject of grief. Andrew shares about the tragic loss he and his family experienced in 2023 and how God's goodness and grace sustained them. Together we look at what the Bible has to say about grief, how believers can both morn and be joyful at the same time, and how other believers can comfort and encourage those who are sorrowful.

In this episode, we respond to the tragic passing of Charlie Kirk and the conversation it has stirred about the role of pastors in addressing current events. How should shepherds decide when to speak to cultural moments from the pulpit—and when to remain silent? We walk through biblical and pastoral criteria for engaging with timely issues, the tension between proclaiming the timeless gospel and speaking to contemporary concerns, and the dangers of political polarization.

We also reflect on the weight of social media backlash, the importance of prayer and elder counsel, and the wisdom Scripture provides for navigating these decisions. Along the way, we explore how preaching differs from other church contexts—like small groups, newsletters, or online platforms—and offer encouragement to younger pastors who may feel pressured to comment on every trending story.

Ultimately, our aim is to help pastors and church members think biblically, wisely, and pastorally about engaging with cultural events in a way that honors Christ and serves the church well.

In this week's episode we are excited to welcome Darin Stone, Pastor of Grace Reformed Presbyterian Church in Clayton, NC to discuss the differences between Baptists and Presbyterians. We have a friendly, brotherly conversation about the many things we share in common, but also some significant differences we have in how we do church.

Chances are you’ve encountered Latter-day Saint (Mormon) missionaries, or perhaps you have friends and neighbors who attend an LDS church. In this week’s episode, we explore the key differences between LDS teaching and historic Christian belief. While some of the language may sound similar, the foundational doctrines are very different—and those differences matter.

Today we start a new series on the Sound in Faith Podcast, "What's The Difference?" Over the next couple of weeks we'll be taking a different topic each episode to compare different denominations, beliefs, worldviews, and maybe even football teams =). This week we look at some of the major differences between Baptists and Roman Catholics, comparing and contrasting beliefs and examining them in light of Scripture.

In episode 2 of this season we dive into some questions that have come to us over the summer. From dating, immigration, to contraceptives and more, we seek to thoughtfully address each question from a biblical perspective.

In this episode, we explore what it truly means to “live a life worthy of the gospel,” drawing from passages like Ephesians 4:1-3. Together, we unpack the biblical meaning of Paul’s words, why this calling matters for every believer, and how grace fuels the effort of daily discipleship. We discuss the practical marks of a gospel-shaped life—unity, humility, generosity, perseverance—and how these virtues transform life in the local church. Along the way, we address common distractions that pull us away from this calling and share ways we can encourage one another to keep walking in step with the gospel.
