Same Things Church: The Value of Predictability in Worship

In this episode, Pastor Mike and Pastor Thomas discuss what it means when we say, “We’re a church of the same things.” Is that simply a preference for tradition, or is there a deeper biblical conviction behind it? Together they explore the value of consistency in gathered worship, the role of the regulative principle, and the key elements that shape our worship services week after week.

Pastors Not Podcasters

Podcasts are great in many ways. They can connect us to great content out there and amazing teaching from gifted teachers. At the same time there can be pitfalls when one becomes too wrapped up in other teachers outside of one's local church. In this episode Pastors Mike and Thomas talk about some of these benefits and offer some words of caution.

Stump Pastor Mike: A Very Hairy Episode

In this lighthearted episode of the Sound in Faith Podcast I try to stump pastor Mike during the live recording. I hit him cold with a somewhat unusual and seemingly insignificant subject and he shares what the Bible has to say about it. While we have some fun, we also see how good principals of biblical interpretation are important even in everyday matters.

Aging: Remaining Faithful as we Fade

We live in a culture where aging is not viewed favorably. Almost everyone seems to be fighting against it. On today's podcast we'll look at what the Bible has to say about aging, how, even though it is something we experience because of the fall, God still uses it for our good and his glory.

Building a Christ-Centered Marriage

This episode looks at why marriage matters so much—and why a Christ-centered marriage matters even more. Whether you’re engaged, newly married, or have been married for decades, we talk about how marriage is meant to reflect the gospel itself: Christ’s loving, sacrificial commitment to His church. Because of that, it’s no surprise that marriages face pressure, conflict, and discouragement when Christ isn’t at the center. Drawing from passages like Ephesians 5, we discuss what a Christ-centered marriage actually looks like, some common ways marriages drift off course, and a few simple, everyday practices that help keep Jesus at the center. We also offer encouragement for couples at every stage—from those just starting out to those in seasons of real struggle—pointing to the hope and grace Christ provides for every marriage.
