Talks On The Road

Welcome back to this week's episode as we discuss the second of the five Solas. Today we talk about Solus Christus which means "Christ alone" in Latin. It's the central tenant in the Christian faith. Listen to Pastor Matt, Jack, and Candace discuss this truth that should inform all that we do.

"Sola Scripture" = Scripture Alone. In today's episode we begin a new series talking about the five solas. Listen as we talk about the importance of understanding the scriptures as we grow in our knowledge of God. We are scripture alone people. Our truth is not gauged by our experiences but by the Word of God.

This week we welcome Brent Southard to the podcast! Not only did Brent and Pastor Matt go to school together, but Brent is also an Elder and Pastor of Ministries and Staff at The Well Church in Argyle, TX. Hear about the responsibilities God has given us under God's sovereignty and how we get to do what Christ has already done for us.

Do you struggle with your identity? Is identity something we discover for ourselves? Our identity is something that is already granted to us in the Lord Jesus Christ. Listen to our ministers talk about identity as a gift and the importance of our identity being found in the giver of that gift, Jesus Christ.

In this week's episode our team talks about the "Gray Fast" we just did as a church. Why did we choose to fast from something that may not be deemed as "bad" but might have a greater grip on our heart and mind than we thought? Listen to the discussion over what we do now and why fasting from things might need to be a part of our lives on a regular basis.

We're thrilled to welcome Daniel Darling to the podcast this week! An esteemed author, pastor, and Christian leader, Daniel currently serves as the Director of The Land Center for Cultural Engagement at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary and as an Assistant Professor of Faith and Culture at Texas Baptist College.

In today's conversation, we delve into an important question of how Christians should engage with politics. Join us as we discuss the relationship Christians should have with politics.

As we wrap up our series on our "Everyday People" series, our ministers talk about the unexpected beauty that comes from of a life committed to Christ in all that we do. When you see Jesus for who he really is and what his church is supposed to be, it's unexpectedly beautiful and you can't get enough.

What does it mean to being "purposefully committed to the family business" in the context of the local church? Is it a check list of do's and don'ts? The primary thing that the church is set out to do is to make disciples. Listen to our ministers as they discuss the final measure of a healthy church.

Resource mentioned in the podcast that we recommend:

Our third "purposefully" is being "purposefully committed to the family" or the local body of believers a.k.a. the local church. Why be a member of a local church body? Listen to our recent discussion and why it's beautiful and biblical to be a part of a local body of Christ.

Our next measure of a healthy church and individual is being purposefully committed to the Word of God. Listen along as we talk about being a people who welcome correction, meditate on the Word and strive to know the truth in the scriptures.
