Today we are talking about self-care and mental health. Jump in the conversation with us as we talk about this hot topic and how we navigate this within Christianity and the local church.

With cool weather FINALLY a part of the forecast we thought it would be appropriate to share a bonus episode about why we love October! Growing up were you team fall festival or team trick-or-treating? Join in on the laughter as the staff talks about all the things we love about fall!

As we continue our discussion over "self-care" we come to the topic of "Mommy Juice". How we choose to unwind, no matter what it is, can become idols of comfort for us. Listen today as we talk about this topic with staff and our guest and elder, Dr. Joe Etter.

When you have a busy day, do you often justify lying on the couch and binging a TV show as "self-care"? Listen to today's episode where we talk about how our self-care can be masking the fact that we are actually being lazy.

Have you ever thought, "If I could just have 30 minutes alone at the start of the day, then I would be a better person right now."? Do you ever feel like you have to do that one thing to set your mood for the day? Today we are starting our series on "Self-Care" and beginning with how we can set our hope on legalistic actions to make our life idealy better.

We're Back and kicking off Season two talking about the Trinity with our guest Dr. Luke Stamps! Dr. Stamps is an Associate Professor of Christian Studies at Anderson University in South Carolina and has his Doctorate in Philosophy & Systematic Theology from The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. Listen along as Dr. Stamps and Pastor Matt discuss why it is important to understand the Trinity.

On our last episode of season one, our Elderss discuss the hot topic of Church Discipline. "Church discipline" can be a triggering phrase, but is it something that is biblical? Listen today as our elders flesh out what this means and what the bible says.

Why is it important to be a church member? In the scriptures it doesn't specifically say "church membership" but just like the scriptures speak to the trinity, the topic of church membership is layed throughout the passages of the Bible. Listen to Matt, Joe and Harry discuss what it means to be a church member.
