March 10, 2019 11: The Substance Reflects | Believers & Cursing
This week, we look at the question: is it biblically permissible to be a “cursing Christian?”
Join us as we talk through the issue of using the LORD’s name in vain, whether or not the Apostle Paul “swore” in the Bible and what that means for us, and some thoughts on how to be both God-honoring and gracious in the profane culture we live in.
**New Segment Alert**
This week is also the debut of our new segment: Substance Shoutouts, wherein we both shout out something that we’ve been enjoying or appreciating recently.
Philip shouts out Christian rap artist J. Monty and his “Testify” video series and Trevor shouts out the Love Thy Neighborhood Podcast
We also thank our listeners for their kind reviews! :)

March 03, 2019 10: Substantive Stories feat Quina Aragon | Love Made
Welcome to our first entry into our Substantive Stories series! This week we have the pleasure of speaking with Quina Aragón. Quina is a spoken word artist, editor, an now a published writer of the wonderful new children’s book “Love Made.”
Join us as we discuss her background, and get to hear her testimony of faith and how God used circumstances and faithful believers to bring her not only to saving faith, but also to fruitful ministry. In addition to being an author, she has also worked with The Gospel Coalition opening up their 2018 Women’s Conference with the Listen and Live Short Film, and has recently joined the Board of the Risen Motherhood ministry, and is a small group leader in her local church.
It was a pleasure to be the first non-female podcast to have her on as a guest and we hope you enjoy!

February 24, 2019 9: The Substance Reflects | Jordan B. Peterson
Our topic this week is brought to you by our listeners. We had a number of listeners reach out and request that we talk about Jordan Peterson, so here we are!
Whether you love him or hate him (or something in between), Jordan Peterson is an undeniably impactful cultural figure. On this week’s show, we critically consider his message(s) and seek to get at the heart of some of the very important topics he regularly addresses along with getting some real smooth plugs in ourselves.
We hope you enjoy and as always are interested to hear from you about what we should on the lookout for and good topics for future shows!

February 17, 2019 8: Substantive Cinema | The Tree of Life feat. Brett McCracken
We’re back with another Substantive Cinema show!
This week we’re looking at Terrence Malick’s spiritual masterpiece “The Tree of Life.” It’s not an “easy” film, but if you go into it with the right mindset, you’ll be hard pressed to find a more substantive moviegoing experience.
Watch Tree of Life: iTunes
Joining us this week for our discussion is film critic, author, and Senior Editor of Arts and Culture at The Gospel Coalition, Brett McCracken. Brett has been a film critic for over a decade and has written extensively about Terrence Malick and his films, and is the perfect guest to help us dig into the deep themes presented in this film. Check out a few of his articles on the film:
“Is the Tree of Life the Best Christian Film Ever?”

We hope you enjoy our discussion and we want to hear from YOU which movies we should add to our list for future episodes!

February 03, 2019 6: The Substance Reflects | Worldliness & Media
Not everyone has the same standards when it comes to what kind of media they feel is appropriate to consume. What are we to make of the wide variety of convictions and practices of fellow believers and those who claim Christ? How do we develop our own standards and what role does conscience, culture, and community play in the process?
Join us as we think critically about these and related topics this week! As always, please contact us and let us know what you thought and what topics you’d like to hear us cover as we go forward.
