In today's episode of we continue the Biblical Characters series by diving into the life of Jacob—a man both deeply flawed and profoundly chosen. Known for his cunning nature and deception, Jacob tricked his brother Esau out of his birthright and blessing. Yet, this very man was renamed Israel and became the namesake of a nation.

Why Jacob? Why would God bless someone so messy and manipulative? Join us as we wrestle with Jacob’s journey from supplanter to patriarch and uncover how his story reflects the transformational power of God's grace. As Paul reminds us in 1 Corinthians 6:11—our past does not define our destiny.

Tune in to TangibleTalks for a raw, honest, and redemptive look at one of the Bible’s most complicated characters.

In this third installment of our “Biblical Characters” series, we continue exploring the extraordinary life of Abraham—called by God to leave everything familiar and walk into the unknown. Jana and Reata dive deeper into Abraham’s journey of faith, obedience, and human struggle. From family tensions to personal doubts, from promises made to promises tested, Abraham’s story reveals a God who works through imperfect people to accomplish eternal purposes.

They discuss key events like the covenant with God, the birth of Ishmael, the testing of Isaac, and how Abraham’s life echoes through the New Testament. What does it mean to be called a “friend of God”? Why is Abraham’s faith still relevant today? Tune in to Tangible Talks for honest conversation and meaningful takeaways about what it looks like to trust God—even when the destination is unknown.

On today's episode, we'll continue our Biblical Characters series, by diving deep into the life of Abraham, the man known as the “father of faith.” From his unexpected call to leave his homeland, to the powerful covenant God made with him, Abraham’s story is one of obedience, doubt, renewal, and ultimately, legacy.

How do we respond when we’re asked to walk into the unknown? Abraham’s journey is full of moments that reflect our own struggles with faith, trust, and purpose. In this episode, we explore the crisis points in his life, his bold (and sometimes flawed) decisions, and how his faith shaped nations—even before he saw the promise fulfilled.

Join us as we reflect on what it means to believe when we can't yet see, and discover the Tangible Takeaways that Abraham and even Noah share—particularly in their seasons of waiting.

On today's episode we kickoff our new Biblical Characters series, by diving into the life of one of the Bible’s most iconic figures—Noah. You may know about the ark and the animals two-by-two, but how much do you really know about the man who lived through the flood? Why did God choose Noah? What was happening in the world at that time? And what does Noah’s story reveal about God’s character and plans?

Join us as we unpack the drama, the faith, and the fresh start that came after the deluge!

In the final episode of our Fellowship Series, Jana and Reata explore the rich and often mysterious concept of Fellowship in the Body of Christ. Drawing from scriptures like Ephesians 5 and Revelation 21, they reflect on the Church as both the body and bride of Christ—deeply loved and eternally significant.

This conversation highlights how the Church, made up of imperfect people, is still central to God's plan. Jana and Reata discuss how fellowship within the body of believers challenges, shapes, and strengthens us as we grow in Christ. From personal to corporate relationships, this episode ties together themes from earlier episodes—fellowship with God, in marriage, and with friends—to show how each plays a part in our unity with Him and with one another.

Tune in as we ask: Is the Church still essential in the life of a believer?

Scripture Referenced: 

Matthew 16:18 And I tell you that you are Peter,[a] and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades[b] will not overcome it.

1 Peter 1:23 For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.

On today's episode, we continue our Fellowship series and explore the question, "What does true friendship really look like?" We dive into the beauty, depth, and divine design of friendship. From the shared experiences that strengthen our bonds to the biblical truth that even Jesus calls us "friends," this episode explores what it means to build relationships rooted in mutual respect, support, and love. Drawing on scripture, personal insights, and timeless wisdom, we reflect on how true friendships can be closer than a brother—and how they mirror our fellowship with God.

Whether you're surrounded by a strong circle or seeking deeper connections, this episode will encourage, inspire, and remind you of the sacred gift of friendship. Tune in and join the conversation!

Scripture Referenced: 

John 15:13 Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.

John 15:14-15 "You are my friends if you do what I command. I no longer
call you servants, because a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I
have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made
known to you."

Prov. 18:24 A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.

Prov. 27:17 Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another.

Ecc 4:9-12 Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil. For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow. But woe to him who is alone when he falls and has not another to lift him up! Again, if two lie together, they keep warm, but how can one keep warm alone? And though a man might prevail against one who is alone, two will withstand him—a threefold cord is not quickly broken.

Quote: JRR Tolkien gave a deeper meaning - A bond so strong to bring you to the point.
where you would die or live together.

Welcome back to Tangible Talks podcast! We’re diving into Episode 2 of our Fellowship Series, and this time, we’re talking about something foundational, powerful, and beautifully designed — Fellowship in Marriage.

From the very beginning, marriage was part of God's plan. Genesis 2:24 paints the picture, and Jesus reinforces it in Matthew 19: “The two will become one flesh.” Marriage is more than a social contract — it's a divine union, an expression of deep fellowship and intimacy created by God Himself.

But as we all know, humans have a way of twisting what was meant to be a blessing. Still, the sacred design of marriage stands strong, echoing the profound relationship between Christ and the Church — His bride.

Join us today, as we explore how marriage mirrors our fellowship with God, what it means for us today, and how we can walk in the fullness of the blessing of marriage.

Scripture Referenced: 

Proverbs 12:4 A wife of noble character is her husband’s crown,
 but a disgraceful wife is like decay in his bones, 

1 Peter 3:7  Husbands, in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers.

On today's episode, we begin a brand new series on Fellowship. We dive into what it really means to share life deeply—starting with the most vital relationship of all: our relationship with God. Some things can only be understood by experience, and true fellowship is one of them. Just like any meaningful connection, your closeness with God grows through time, conversation, quiet moments, and discovery.

Join us as we explore how our relationship with God shapes every other relationship in our lives. Let’s start the journey together—right here on Tangible Talks. 

Scripture Referenced: 

Luke 11:9 “So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.

Ezekiel 37:2-3  2 He led me back and forth among them, and I saw a great many bones on the floor of the valley, bones that were very dry. 3 He asked me, “Son of man, can these bones live?”

I said, “Sovereign Lord, you alone know.”

Welcome to another episode of the Tangible Talks Podcast! Today, we're hitting pause to reflect on the first quarter of 2025, sharing the highlights and our favorite takeaways from January to now. This episode is all about looking back, revisiting powerful moments, and connecting with the insights that have impacted us the most.

Join us as we revisit two of our series from this quarter. First, we dive into the Rest Series, specifically “Tracing Rest,” where we explore the profound meaning of stopping, resting, and embracing the Sabbath as an invitation from God to cease from our labor and join Him in rest. It’s a practice that points to something far greater than just physical relaxation—it’s about reconnecting with God’s design for us.

Additionally, we discuss our favorite takeaways from the Attitude Series, and the lessons we've been applying in our daily lives since. These takeaways include: "choose your hard", "our temporary home" and "feelings are not fact". 

CS Lewis Quotes: 

“Good and evil both increase at compound interest. That is why the
little decisions you and I make every day are of such infinite
importance. The smallest good act today is the capture of a strategic
point from which, a few months later, you may be able to go on to
victories you never dreamed of. An apparently trivial indulgence in
lust or anger today is the loss of a ridge or railway line or bridgehead
from which the enemy may launch an attack otherwise impossible.”
C.S. Lewis - Mere Christianity

"If we find ourselves with a desire that nothing in this world can satisfy,
the most probable explanation is that we were made for another
world."  C.S. Lewis

In the final episode of our "Attitude Series," we discuss the power of an "Attitude Adjustment." Our thoughts and mindsets directly influence how we receive the blessings God has for us, shaping our actions and responses to life’s challenges. 

From gratitude and forgiveness to trust and humility, the right attitude can transform your world. Join us as we explore how renewing our minds and aligning our thoughts with God's Word can unlock peace and eradicate destructive attitudes that hold us back from living out our mission.

Tune in for an inspiring conversation about how transgressions and struggles can actually be signs that a blessing is coming; and our attitudes can determine whether or not we receive the blessing.
