If you haven't listened to last week's episode- before you read this, you should go back and either listen to it or read the show notes! Also, pause and watch this video: Francis Chan the REAL American Dream (it's only about 6 minutes)! Now that you've done the homework, we can jump into this episode! In the last episode, we talked about our personal experience and why we decided to become foster parents. This week, we're talking more about how Christians are called to foster care. We'll also talk about some of the pushback we could (and do) get against this conviction. We're not experts. We aren't coming at this conversation from a high horse. But we do want to challenge you to be involved in some way in the foster care system. Want to stay on our virtual couch a little longer?

You've probably heard us mention over the past few months that we are now foster parents to a teenage girl! We are not pretending to be experts- we've only been foster parents for four months, but just wanted to share our hearts and thoughts about foster care. It has been one of the most challenging yet rewarding and growing experiences that we've ever had. In this episode, we're gonna talk about why we started foster care, and in the next episode, we are going to issue a challenge to other Christians on why they should consider doing it.

How do we reconcile verses like James 2:14-26 (which emphasizes the necessity of works) with verses like Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans 4, and Galatians 2:16 (which emphasize the pure necessity of faith)?

We're going to be digging into these verses and discussing their differences and their applications for us as believers (because as always, we have these discussions to lead to more faithfulness in our own lives) in this episode.

On this week's episode, we're gonna be talking about the importance of transparent, healthy, honest communication in marriage. A lot of times we think about the big/"flashy"/obvious parts of marriage to diagnose how we're doing –frequency of date nights away from the kids, weekends away, etc... It's actually about how we're communicating and engaging each other in the everyday mundane that makes the biggest impact on the overall health of our marriage Plenty of people get divorced after consistent date nights. They date a lot, but fail to focus on the essential communication skills that are necessary for a healthy marriage. Let's talk about how you can practically focus on the daily, mundane conversations!

Have you ever intentionally fasted for spiritual purposes? Maybe you've read about it in Scripture, thought about implementing it as a spiritual practice in your life, but weren't sure where to start or if it was right for you. Fasting is a spiritual discipline that is not talked about much in the modern church, and unless you are a Catholic during Lent, is practiced even less. Yet examples of fasting permeate the Bible. In this episode, we dive into what Scripture lays out as fasting and discuss the implications for modern-day believers.

In this episode, we're continuing our occasional series where we take a deeper look at verses that are often taken out of context. We often hear one-liner verses used to justify something. But when you look at the context of the verse, you realize that verse doesn't really mean what people use it to say. We want to make sure that we use Scripture in the way it was intended. In this episode, we're looking at 1 Peter 5:8... Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. 1 Peter 5:8 Many people take this passage to explain any time they are struggling with sin...people use this verse when they are struggling with porn, coveting, anger, etc...but is it always really Satan?

New Testament Christians aren't bound to the tithe in the same way that Old Testament Israelites were, but in this episode we discuss the practice of tithing in light of the gospel, as well as how we as Christians should view or money in general.

You're not going into full-time ministry. You're not trying to be a pastor, a full-time missionary, a Bible teacher, or anything in that realm. Why would you need to study theology? Isn't that just for the academic Christians to understand so they can write sermons and podcasts that are easier for us everyday Christians to understand? We're talking about it in this episode. Because the reality is, every follower of Christ is called to be a theologian, to know God deeply. Every single one of us must know what we believe, now more than ever when all kinds of (seemingly compelling) theologies are available right at our fingertips.

In today's world where political and social issues are constantly full of tension, and often outrage, we must ask ourselves the question: How does my identity as a follower of Christ impact the lens through which I view politics? We know that as Christians, we are called to live and engage in this world without becoming of it. We know that while we are citizens of our countries, our first and ultimate allegiance is to Christ and growing His Kingdom. Being a Christian doesn't mean we're a republican any more than being a Christian means we're a democrat. We're called to submit to and pray for our governing authorities, regardless of where they lie on the political spectrum. And ultimately, the demeanor we as Christians take when engaging in politics should exemplify Christ. In this episode we chat all about politics through a biblical worldview, focusing on eight principles you as a Christian should consider regarding your engagement in the political realm.

We discuss: What is worship? How does worship look in one's life? What are ways that we worship God improperly? The importance of self-forgetfulness in worship How can we worship biblically and in a theologically-sound way? How should we discern how to lead or listen to questionable worship music?

"If an addict is talking about freedom from addiction, in my mind, humility is my journey away from an egotistical, "I am the center of my universe" mindset. I am a recovering "egotistian" (is that a word?). This conversation is not coming from a place of arrival, but a continuous journey." -Jake Hatfield Living with humility is merely to recognize and live in reality. Anything that we pursue (money, fame, etc...) will come to an end. Humility is living in the reality that we are not in charge.

As the American Church, we've often come to view discipleship as a meeting with someone for an hour a week at a coffee shop, sitting, studying the Bible, and praying. While there is certainly nothing wrong with this, if this is all we view discipleship as, we're missing out. In this episode (part 1 of 2), we're chatting all about where we tend to miss the mark.

In this episode, we're talking about a hotly debated question- should you give to people who beg for money? This question was posed in one Nathaniel's classes (Ethics of Wealth and Poverty) for an assignment. When you are walking on the street or driving in your car, and you see someone asking for money, should you give it to them? Everyone has faced a scenario similar to this. Unless you live off the grid, in which case you probably aren't actually reading this. This is a question Christians NEED to wrestle with and need to be prepared for. Failing to plan is planning to fail. If we don't know how we biblically and personally want to approach these kinds of situations we will default to either not giving money or giving a little bit of change but wondering if we're doing the right thing.

Today we're doing a deep dive into what can be a hot topic in the Church: speaking in tongues. Tongues is clearly described as a spiritual gift in Scripture, but there is much debate over whether it has ceased, whether it's required for pastors/elders, whether it's the true mark of a Believer, etc. In this episode we break down what the Bible says about speaking in tongues, and how we believe those references should be interpreted.

There are many times that we hear Bible verses, whether through listening to a podcast, reading a blog, or even listening to a sermon. When we hear only a single verse it can sound like it means one thing, but when we evaluate the context (the chapters surrounding that verse, who the author was, who the audience was, the historical component, etc), it actually means something totally different than we originally thought. In this part 2 of our "What in the Actual Context" series (here's part 1 where we break down Philippians 4:13 and Jeremiah 29:11), we break down 1 Corinthians 14:33 – "For God is not a god of confusion, but of peace."

When most people think of who they aspire to be like, or asked in their wildest dreams who they would want to trade places with for a day, they would say a famous athlete, a famous music artist, and popular celebrity, or even a popular Christian celebrity. These types of people are the most followed people in the world on social media. They are the type of people we aspire to be like: we want to be rich like them, we want to be famous like them, we want to be as good-looking as them, etc. Maybe we want to have the same accomplishments or level of fame! If you're in the church culture, you're probably less likely to give these answers. But even if we don't consciously say we want to be like these people, when we consistently fill our minds paying attention to them and following them, we will inevitably start being shaped by them. You are being discipled and influenced by them, in one way or another. We chat about the effects of this and how to be more mindful of our influences in this episode!

On this episode of the podcast, we're joined by Sean and Adrienne Robinson to discuss something they live out so well in their own life – hospitality. If you've ever felt like you want to grow in hospitality but you don't have the right space in your home, or you're already up to your eyeballs with toddler routines, or some other hangup, this episode is for you. Sean and Adrienne drop some truth bombs about the biblical foundation for hospitality, how it fleshes out in their own lives, whether it comes naturally to them, the cultural trend of "me time," and what they'd say to the person wanting to grow in their hospitality within the local church.

So many people (ourselves included) talk in terms of "going" to church, but if we honestly look at the biblical definitions of these terms, it would be more accurate to say "we're gathering with the church" on Sunday mornings or "I'm meeting with ______ at the ______ building."

We're coming at you today with a hot topic: is masturbation sinful? We want to talk about this because too often we shy away from these types of topics within the church. Obviously, we don't necessarily think that this should be a topic for the Sunday morning pulpit, but Christians need to talk about this. We've heard godly Christians say that it is sinful, and we've heard godly Christians say that it isn't. So what do we think? Let's talk about it.
