Using Jesus’ example of loving God, serving neighbors, and even forgiving enemies, he challenges us to let our faith be visible, practical, and transformative.

When the world is full of lies, distractions, and chaos, how do we stay rooted in truth? On this episode of Side Notes, Adam and Pastor Josh dive into Pastor Tim's message on 1 & 2 Timothy, exploring faith that stands firm in any storm. From snowed-in adventures to family faith stories, they show how God’s Word isn’t just ancient—it’s alive, practical, and the firm foundation we can build our lives on.

What happens when a strong foundation slowly erodes beneath the surface? Continuing "Cover to Cover," Pastor Tim examines the Apostle Paul’s final charge to Timothy and why standing on God’s Word still matters today. He explores cultural and spiritual erosion and reminds us that Scripture is God-breathed, points to Jesus, and equips us to live faithfully in a shifting world.

What does it mean to truly "magnify" God? This week on Side Notes, Pastor Josh and Brandy dive deeper into the life of Mary. They discuss the "mind-blowing" reality that Mary had the Word of God in her heart before she ever had the Word in her womb—and how her knowledge of Scripture gave her the strength to say "yes" to a 70-mile journey.

Mary was the only person in history to witness both the birth and death of Jesus, but her strength didn’t come from her circumstances—it came from the truth she hid in her heart. By looking at the "Magnificat" in Luke 1, we discover that Mary had the Word of God in her heart before she ever carried the Word in her womb. Her example proves that memorizing Scripture is the most powerful way to carry God’s truth into every moment of our lives.
