Sunday Reverb

This week on Sunday Reverb, Joe welcomes special guests Pastor Mark Doss and Karen Doss.

In this heartfelt episode, Joe, Mark, and Karen explore the profound, unchanging love of God through key Scriptures that highlight Christ's humility, incarnation, sacrifice, and redemptive grace. Drawing from passages like Philippians 2:6–8, John 1:14, Romans 5:8, and others, they unpack how Jesus emptied Himself, became flesh, bore our sins, and died for us while we were still sinners—proving a love that pursues us relentlessly.

If you have ever questioned whether God's grace extends to your own story, this conversation offers encouragement, personal insights from Mark and Karen's journey, and a powerful reminder: You are seen, known, and loved fiercely by the One who gave everything on the cross. His arms remain open wide.✝️

This week on Sunday Reverb, Joe and Shelli talk about “I Believe” by Charity Gayle and the powerful declaration of faith found throughout the song. They reflect on the many gospel truths in the lyrics—from the cross and resurrection to the promise that Christ will return—and how believers can confidently declare what they believe. They also look at the prophet Habakkuk, who chose to rejoice in God even while facing the coming Babylonian invasion, showing that worship and faith are not just feelings but a decision to trust God’s character and promises.

This week on Sunday Reverb, we step away from our usual song discussion to celebrate something special in our church family. Steve and Christy Tucker join us to share about God’s faithfulness over the past four years and His clear leading in bringing them back to Topeka Baptist Church.

After sensing a call to Oregon several years ago, the Lord has now guided them back — and the response from our church has been overwhelming with joy and gratitude. We talk about obedience, seasons of growth, what God taught them while they were away, and the excitement of stepping into this next chapter together.

It’s a conversation about calling, unity, and the kindness of God in writing stories better than we could have planned ourselves.

This week on Sunday Reverb, Joe and Shelli talk about the covenant behind communion. When Jesus said, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood,” He was fulfilling a promise that stretches from Genesis to the prophets — a promise to rescue, forgive, and dwell with His people forever. This episode explores how that ancient covenant finds its “Yes” in Christ and why the table is more than bread and juice — it’s assurance that the better sacrifice has secured us for good.

In this episode, we reflect on one of the most powerful worship moments in Scripture—Solomon’s dedication of the temple in 2 Chronicles 5–7—and how it connects to “Lord, Let Your Glory Fall” by Matt Redman. When the ark was brought into the temple and the people lifted their voices in unified praise, the glory of the Lord filled the house so fully that the priests could not even stand to minister.

We talk about what was happening in that moment, why it mattered in Israel’s history, and how that same longing for God’s tangible presence shapes our worship today. What does it mean to pray, “Lord, let Your glory fall”? Join us as we explore the weight, wonder, and beauty of God dwelling among His people.

This week on Sunday Reverb, Joe and Shelli reflect on the worship song Agnus Dei and the powerful truth behind the words, “Worthy is the Lamb.” Following the song, Scripture was read from Revelation 5, giving a glimpse of heaven’s ongoing worship of Jesus—the Lamb who was slain and now reigns. Together, they talk about why this simple song carries such weight, how worship re-centers us in the middle of busy and noisy weeks, and what it means for everyday believers to fix their eyes on Christ.

In this episode of Sunday Reverb, Joe and Shelli explore the timeless hymn The Love of God, reflecting on its powerful lyrics and rich history. Together, they consider how the hymn points to the immeasurable, enduring love of God—a love that reaches beyond human language and understanding. This conversation invites listeners to reflect on the depth of God’s grace and respond in worship to a love that has sustained believers across generations.

In this episode of Sunday Reverb, Joe and Shelli reflect on For God So Loved by We The Kingdom. Keeping it simple and centered on the gospel, they talk about the depth of God’s love revealed in John 3:16 and how this song reminds us that our faith is rooted not in what we do for God, but in what He has already done for us. We have no reason to doubt the love that God has for His children... God Loves You!

This week on Sunday Reverb, Joe and Shelli are joined by Chris Bloom, who serves behind the scenes with lighting and technical systems at TBC. Together they reflect on the hymn “I Have Decided to Follow Jesus,” explore the powerful story behind its origins, and talk honestly about what it means to follow Jesus with resolve, sacrifice, and no turning back.

This week on Sunday Reverb, Joe and Shelli are joined by Jeff and Paula Rhoades. Together, they reflect on the worship song Who You Say I Am and talk honestly about how its lyrics speak to identity, freedom, and belonging in Christ.

The conversation touches on what it means to live in the truth that “if the Son sets you free, you are free indeed,” how our value is rooted in who God says we are, and how those truths meet us in real life. Paula shares from her work as a therapist — what she calls being a “holder of hope” — and how she’s seen God bring healing and restoration to people in difficult seasons.

This episode is thoughtful, encouraging, and grounded in Scripture, reminding us that freedom in Christ isn’t just something we believe — it’s something we’re invited to live.
