Uncovering the Modern Lie about Modesty || Cross Culture Podcast Ep. 42

Uncovering the Modern Lie about Modesty || Cross Culture Podcast Ep. 42

When most people hear the word modesty, they immediately think about clothing. But is that all there is to it? In this episode of the Cross Culture Podcast, we explore a broader and more biblical understanding of modesty. We discuss how Christianity is a communal faith, one that calls us to consider the people around us and not just ourselves. From the way we dress to the way we eat, spend, speak, and carry ourselves, we talk about how modesty is closely tied to self-control, stewardship, and love for others. We examine what it means to live with an awareness that our choices can affect the people around us and why modesty is about more than appearances. This conversation challenges some common assumptions and invites believers to think more deeply about how faith should shape everyday life. As always, expect honest conversation, practical insights, and our usual banter along the way.

God, Money and The Prosperity Gospel || Cross Culture Podcast Ep. 41

Money is one of the most talked about and misunderstood topics in Christian spaces. In this episode of the Cross Culture Podcast, we have an honest conversation about the believer and money. From the prosperity gospel to generosity, stewardship, investing, and budgeted giving, we unpack what a healthy, balanced biblical perspective on money can look like. We discuss the tension between excess and scarcity mindsets, the importance of wisdom in finances, and why stewardship matters just as much as generosity. We also talk about how God is not against growth, planning, or investment and why believers should approach money with responsibility, wisdom, and open hands. This episode is practical, thoughtful, and full of real conversation with our usual banter along the way.

Don’t Let Social Media Think for You || Cross Culture Podcast Ep.40

In this episode of the Cross Culture Podcast, we get into conversations about growth, mentorship, discernment, and the danger of letting social media shape our worldview. We talk about the importance of employers, intentionally developing talent, creating mentorship structures, and helping mid-level professionals grow into leadership and senior-level roles. We also discuss how social media increasingly shapes opinions on important topics like marriage, relationships, and life in general, and why it’s dangerous to build convictions purely from online narratives. The conversation also touches on discernment in relationships and community: avoiding the “halo effect,” paying attention to character, and understanding the importance of the fruits of the Spirit alongside gifts, charisma, or talent.It’s thoughtful, practical, and full of honest conversation with our usual banter along the way.

The REAL Reason You Were Created (It's Not What You Think) || Cross Culture Podcast Ep. 38

How do you actually discover your purpose? And once you find it, what should it produce in your life as a believer? In this episode of the Cross Culture Podcast, we talk about purpose - what it really means, how people often misunderstand it, and the expectations that come with it for those who follow Christ. We unpack how purpose is more than personal ambition, career success, or chasing fulfillment. As believers, purpose should shape our character, influence our priorities, deepen our obedience to God, and affect the way we serve people. We also discuss responsibility, growth, discipline, and the kind of life purpose should produce in a Christian. Because finding purpose is one thing; living in alignment with it is another. This conversation is honest, reflective, practical, and filled with our usual banter along the way. Episode Sponsor This episode is proudly sponsored by Appealing Apartments.
