Faith in Focus: A Palominas Chapel Podcast

Ai dating and Losing Sight of the Advocate

In this episode, Pastor Nathan Harding and the Faith in Focus panel take on a wide-ranging conversation covering the rise of AI-generated relationships and what they mean for human connection, the quiet but powerful influence social media is having on the minds of children, and a biblical look at sin as an archer - how people sometimes miss the mark and why the Advocate is so easily lost from sight. The episode closes with a fascinating story about an MIT professor and his knowledge about a world war II death ray.

Bottled Tears: From the Bible to God's Hands

A Family Memory from Margaret Harding Austin and Adeline sit down with a piece that is part family history and part testimony, written by Margaret Harding about her mother-in-law, Leora. It's the story of a woman hardened by poverty, an abusive home, and decades of loss, who knelt at an altar at sixty-five years old and was never the same again. Along the way: a grandmother who slipped a dollar to a six-year-old boy and told him a dime belonged to God, a tear-stained Bible left on a nightstand, a hospital room where a woman came back from death because her son had prayed, and a goodnight kiss that was the first of its kind. Psalm 56:8 asks whether God puts our tears in His bottle. Margaret Harding says yes. She watched Him do it. Juan Carlos has an announcement about something new happening Wednesday nights. You won't want to miss it, but you will have to show up live to catch it.

Do you realize how much God cares about YOU?

Most of us know, in a general sort of way, that God loves us. But knowing it and actually feeling the weight of it are two different things. Jodee Harding takes one of Jesus' most overlooked illustrations, the wildflowers of the field dressed better than Solomon in all his glory, and turns it into something deeply personal. In this episode, Adeline and Juan walk through Sister Jodee Harding's post, looking into the question the title asks directly: do you actually realize how much God cares about you? Not people in general. You. They trace the passage from Luke 12 through its practical and biblical implications, talk about why anxiety is so often a failure of sight rather than a failure of faith, and land on what it means to be valued by a God who clothes the grass of the field and thinks about you far more than that.

Know Your Pronouns

The pronoun debate has the whole world twisted up, but what if it was already settled in the first chapter of the Bible? Genesis 1:26-28 contains eight pronouns, and not one of them was placed casually. In this episode, Austin and Adeline walk through what those words actually mean, what is lost when they are redefined, and why the positions God assigned to every person from birth point to something real and holy about who He is. Juan Carlos also drops in from the producer's chair, and Austin has thoughts about birds, ranching, and which end of the pony matters. The Word has not changed, and neither has Austin's opinion on foolishness.
