Entering Into Good Friday

Why is Good Friday so important and what makes the Service of Shadows at Sacred City so powerful? The guys sit down to discuss this topic, some history of this service at the church, and what people can expect heading into Good Friday.

Making Advent Memorable (w/Jarek Bakken & David Sanderson)

Who doesn't like talking about Christmas!? This was a fun one! I'm joined by two good dudes to talk about all things pertaining to Advent and Christmas family traditions and how, in big or small ways, we can enjoy and make the most of this season to the glory of God and for the good of those around us.

Embodied & Repetitive Worship

What you do with your body in worship matters. Every movement—standing, singing, kneeling, receiving—forms you. Through these repeated physical acts, God reshapes your desires and tunes your heart to love Him rightly. Far from routine, embodied repetition is how the Spirit turns worship into formation.

The Christian Soldier's Fight

Drawing on J.C. Ryle’s Holiness and his chapter “The Fight,” we’ll explore what it means to live as soldiers of Christ, battling the world, the flesh, and the devil by faith. With Christ as our Captain and His promises as our weapons, the fight is not only necessary—it’s good. Wake up, take your orders, and press on toward the victory that is already secure.

The Goodness of Good Friday

In this episode of Life in the Liturgy, we reflect on the paradoxes of Holy Week—suffering and glory, death and life, sorrow and hope—and how Jesus reconciles these tensions in His final hours. Join us as we explore why Good Friday is truly good, and why lingering in its weight and wonder is essential to living the story of redemption more deeply.
