  • Ep 28 - How the heck do I love and pray for my enemies?
    Jun 20 2025

    Join us for an honest conversation on what it looks like to actually pray for your enemies. Why does Jesus tell us to do this? How do I even start? What if I don't want to?! All of these questions and more come up as we dive into the commands Jesus gave us in the gospels to love your enemies, bless those who curse you, etc.

    Both Derek and Julia speak from experience in this episode about why this is possibly the hardest thing Jesus ever told us to do, but also how it can be one of the most beautiful. Join us as we dive in today.

    Community Questions:
    1) Who comes to your mind when you hear "love your enemies"?
    2) What is your initial reaction to that person's name?
    3) Do you think you can start / keep praying for them / grow in your prayer for them?

  • Ep 27 - Tackling Tough Topics & Difficult Discussions
    Jun 6 2025

    Join us this week as we dive into WHY the Church (in very general terms!) doesn't do well at having hard conversations, and what we could be doing better to hold space for people who are grieving or walking through tough seasons.

    Community questions:

    1) Is there a topic you'd like to see more churches talking about?

    2) Have you been to a church where they did 'hard conversations' well? What was something they did that made you feel that way?

    May 23 2025

    In today's episode we talk all about idolatry today. What does idolatry look like in today's culture? What are some signs you may be dealing with an idol in your life, and how do you shift things so that God sits on the throne of your heart and nothing else? Join us for this beautiful conversation as we dive right in!

    Community Questions:
    1) Do you have idols in your life?

    2) Who or what is sitting on the throne of your heart today? What gets all of your attention, all of your thoughts, all of your action?
