An Attractive Blur: Image, Identity, & Kevin Hart

Sometimes, we look in the wrong places for our identity - celebrities, pastors, teachers, theologians, musicians, when we should be defining ourselves how Christ does. We talk through what it looks like to live out our identity faithfully, and whether Kevin Hart has anything to say about it.

Action! (It's 2026, Y'all.)

As has been our custom for a while now, we start the new year by contemplating the year we just wrapped up. What do we have to say? Can we still contribute to the cultural conversation about faith in a meaningful way?

Beyond the Noise

This episode almost didn't make it. Why? Well, sometimes things don't quite happen like you hope they will. This episode was recorded and edited in October and then somehow wiped from existence(that may or may not be my fault-Ryan). But... we thankfully record back up audio. On this episode we talk about Charlie Kirk and the incident that sparked what many are calling a unique moment. Though delayed, we discuss the public reaction, our reactions, and what this means for followers of Christ.

Do I Have To Like Church To Love Jesus?

You've probably heard this verse quoted - "Do not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing." And if you've been a Christian for any amount of time, you've probably encountered something about church that you didn't like, or even deeply hurt or grieved you. We're commanded to continue to participate in church, but how do we navigate the all too often messy and difficult people that are a part of it? And for that matter, what does "church" even mean? In this episode, we try to get to clarity on what it means for the body of Christ to gather, and what God was really wanting the church to be to begin with.

Blessed Are God's Favorites, For Their Outrage Is Justified

As we wrap up our Beatitudes series, we wrestle with what it really means to be blessed when persecuted and reviled. This radical statement from Jesus stands in stark contrast to the comfort-driven values of the world — and especially of modern America. In this episode, we unpack how the American church has often redefined “persecution,” and why that matters. Is discomfort the same as persecution? Are we missing something deeper that Jesus was calling us to? Join us as we explore what faithful and joyful endurance looks like in a world that doesn’t always understand the way of the Kingdom.
