In this episode, we sit down with Pastor Rick Carrol of Portico Community Church, whose journey into faith began as a teenager during one of the darkest seasons of his life. From struggling with depression and identity to experiencing true spiritual transformation, his story is a powerful reminder that healing and purpose are found in Christ alone.

With over 20 years in ministry, he shares the key moments that shaped his calling, his passion for helping others engage scripture deeply, and the importance of authentic relationships in the Christian walk.

In this episode, we dive into the real struggles this generation faces—identity, confusion, spiritual warfare—and how the church can better meet us where we are. From the influence of media to the quiet power of compromise, we explore why belief doesn’t always equal freedom, and how to guard our hearts in a culture of distraction. If you’re hungry for authenticity, clarity, and deeper connection with God, this one’s for you.

With livestreams just a click away, do we still need to gather in person to “have church”? In this episode, we explore what Scripture says about community, commitment, and the power of presence in the body of Christ.

From Hebrews to Acts, we unpack the biblical model for church—not as a passive experience, but a living, breathing family. We’ll talk about what’s lost when we trade fellowship for convenience, and why online church should supplement, not replace, the local gathering.

Whether you’ve gotten comfortable with staying home or just wondering if physical attendance really matters, this episode will challenge, encourage, and hopefully rekindle your love for God’s design for His people.

Rooted in Scripture, we’ll unpack what the Bible says about guarding our minds, resisting conformity, and staying spiritually alert in a world that often celebrates what God warns against.

It’s not just about avoiding “bad” media — it’s about fighting for a tender heart before God.

In a world where social media influence often seems more valuable than spiritual integrity, many Christians find themselves caught between seeking God’s approval and craving validation from others. Are we more concerned with followers, likes, and shares than with following Christ? Have we allowed clout culture to redefine our self-worth, identity, and faith?

In this episode, we take a hard look at how social media and modern culture can distort our priorities, pushing us to seek worldly validation over God’s truth. We’ll explore the pressures of online influence, the struggle of identity in a digital world, and how to remain anchored in faith while still engaging with today’s platforms.

If you’ve ever questioned whether social media is shaping your self-image, felt the pressure to perform for approval, or struggled with finding true purpose beyond the screen, this conversation is for you. We’ll break down how to shift our focus back to God, keep our faith strong in a clout-driven culture, and pursue purpose over popularity.

We’re back together again, and this time, we’re diving deep into a topic that affects all of us—social media and self-perception. From the way we present ourselves online to the unrealistic standards we chase, social media has undeniably shaped how we see ourselves and the world around us.

In this episode, we share personal experiences, including the time we both got pulled over (yikes!) and discuss whether social media is making us hyper-focused on ourselves, taking away from our relationship with God, and even influencing our self-worth. Is the pursuit of perfection a trap? Are we too exposed? And can social media actually be used for good? Let’s break it all down together!
