This week on Sunday Reverb, Joe takes you behind the scenes of a mission trip to Belize with the team from Topeka Baptist.

Across seven days, you’ll hear voices from the field—each volunteer sharing their experiences, as well as powerful moments with local church leaders and believers in Belize. From hands-on construction at the new church property, to leading VBS for two local schools, to delivering groceries and sharing the gospel with 30 families house-to-house—this episode captures the heart of serving, witnessing, and God’s faithfulness in action.

In this follow-up to last week’s episode, Joe and Shelli turn their attention to Paul Baloche’s worshipful setting of Psalm 92. They explore how this song brings the psalm’s rich truth to life—and why singing Scripture isn’t just helpful, it’s essential for the church.

With biblical insights, a quote from Timothy Keller, and plenty of conversation about how music helps Scripture take root, this episode will encourage you to love God’s Word and sing it boldly. Shelli also shares how singing Scripture shapes our church and our homes—and Joe nerds out (just a little) on how well the psalm flows musically.

In this first part of our two-episode series on Psalm 92 by Paul Baloche, Joe and Shelli take a joyful yet thoughtful look at why singing Scripture is so vital in the life of the church. From Colossians 3:16 to worship wisdom from leaders like Bob Kauflin and Vernon Whaley, this episode is full of biblical encouragement and real talk.

We even break into a few impromptu Scripture songs from our childhood—because sometimes the best theology is tucked into a tune you can’t forget.

Whether you're a worship leader, a parent, or someone who just loves God’s Word and music, this episode will challenge and encourage you to treasure truth through song.

In this special episode of Sunday Reverb, Joe and Shelli record from the brand-new podcast room at Topeka Baptist’s new building—just a mile down the road, but a big leap forward for a growing church. This week’s featured song is “I Thank God” by Maverick City Music, mashed up with the classic Don Moen chorus, “Give Thanks with a Grateful Heart.” It was the first worship set in the new space, and the theme of gratefulness ran deep.

Joe and Shelli reflect on God's provision—not just of a new facility, but the ultimate gift of salvation through Jesus Christ. With a few laughs, some real talk, and references to 1 Chronicles 29, this episode is all about celebrating the goodness and faithfulness of our unchanging God.
