Faith Filter with Erica & Jesse

Memorial Day Edition!

Memorial Day always makes me pause and breathe a little deeper as I think about the men and women who gave their lives so we could live and worship freely. Pastor Jesse and I keep coming back to Jesus’ words about greater love, and how the sacrifice of our service members reflects that same self‑giving love. My heart is full of gratitude, prayer, and awe for both God’s grace and the people who paid such a high price for our freedom. Special guest: Pastor Jesse from Grace Community Church in Auburn/ Host of the Bonfire podcast on Purposely, AND author of the brand new book, The Power Of The Second Thought, How To Live With Indestructible Hope! What is Faith Filter? We take what’s on our minds, what’s on our hearts, and what’s happening in the world… and put it through the filter of our faith and what God’s Word says about it.  Pastor Jesse’s church: https://www.graceinauburn.com/ [https://www.graceinauburn.com/] Pastor Jesse’s podcast: https://onpurposely.com/podcasts/the-bonfire/ [https://onpurposely.com/podcasts/the-bonfire/]

Midweek Hope Edition!

Midweek Hope felt like one of those nights where the air practically buzzed with possibility—students from all over campus showing up curious, open, and ready to experience something real. What started as a simple space to focus on Jesus turned into a joyful, overflowing celebration, with hundreds receiving Bibles and many choosing to take new steps of faith. By the end, students were dancing, singing extra songs, and already asking when they could do it again.  Press PLAY for a vivid reminder that when God stirs hunger, He also supplies everything needed to meet it.

Holy Week Edition!

Holy Week has a way of slowing us down—inviting us to breathe, reflect, and remember the story that changed everything. Good Friday isn’t just a somber moment in history; it’s the breathtaking reminder that Jesus tore the veil, carried our sin, and opened the way to the Father through a love deeper than we can fathom. And Easter? It’s the explosion of hope that turns faith into something alive—anchoring us in a resurrection power that doesn’t fade when Monday comes, but walks with us into every ordinary moment, filling our homes, our churches, and our cities with the indestructible hope of Jesus.

Lent Edition!

As we step into Lent, many of us feel that gentle nudge to slow down, breathe deeper, and make room for Jesus in fresh ways. These 40 days aren’t about earning God’s love—they’re an invitation to reflect, repent, and draw closer to the One who already loves us beyond measure. Whether you’re fasting, simplifying, or simply seeking, Lent becomes a beautiful journey when it leads our hearts back to Him.
