Stewardship

The Importance of the New Testament

Is "Christ" just Jesus's last name? Pastor Andy Lewis and Dr. Adam Nigh explore why understanding who Jesus really is—and his relationship to the Father and Holy Spirit—matters for everyday faith. Dr. Nigh reframes the conversation: rather than trying to fit God into a chart, we're invited into a story where God has come to us as our King. The episode closes with a tantalizing cliffhanger: Do we pray to God, Jesus, or the Spirit? This episode previews Dr. Nigh's upcoming class.

Stewardship

What does it really mean to be a good steward of what God has given us? Pastor Andy Lewis and Dr. Adam Nigh explore how biblical stewardship goes far beyond the offering plate—encompassing time, talents, creation, and our entire embodied existence. Dr. Nigh grounds the conversation in a doctrine of creation: everything originates with God, making us caretakers rather than owners. They also examine what "dominion" truly means in Genesis, looking to Christ as the model of servant kingship. This episode sets the stage for FCC's upcoming stewardship class.

Theology

How do you actually read the Bible and truly understand what you're reading? Pastor Andy Lewis and Dr. Adam Nigh tackle uncomfortable statistics—47% of Christians believe the Bible isn't accurate—and explore why context, genre, and translation should be considered. Dr. Nigh explains that Scripture isn't a collection of daily verses but a grand, epic story of God's covenant with his people. They also share surprising research: reading Scripture four or more times per week creates a measurable jump in spiritual maturity. This episode serves as a primer for FCC's upcoming theology class.
