    Ep. 173 - Pentecost Sunday

    On this Pentecost Sunday, we explore Acts 2 and the powerful arrival of the Holy Spirit—not just as the “birthday of the church,” but as a launching point for believers into a new future. Through stories of graduations, rocket launches, and John Wesley’s Aldersgate experience, this conversation reflects on what it means to be moved forward by God’s Spirit with love, courage, and understanding in a divided world.

    Ep. 172 - Wisdom of Youth

    This week in our “Generational Wisdom” series, we explore the wisdom of youth through a powerful conversation with Claire, one of our students at Grace Avenue. Reflecting on Jeremiah 1:4-10, this episode examines what it means to speak truth, challenge injustice, and carry hope in a world that often underestimates young voices. Through stories of faith, courage, and community, the conversation reminds us that wisdom is not limited by age—and that the hope and imagination of youth may be exactly what the church and the world need most.

    Ep. 171 - The Wisdom of Women

    This Mother’s Day conversation in our “Generational Wisdom” series explores the faith passed down through generations of women. Reflecting on 2 Timothy 1:3-7, the discussion highlights the influence of mothers, grandmothers, and faithful women whose wisdom, love, and courage shape our lives and faith journeys. Through stories, humor, and meaningful reflection, this episode invites us to consider what traditions we carry forward, what we let go of, and how we help weave a faith strong enough for future generations.

    Ep. 170 - Wisdom Across the Ages

    In this episode, we begin our new sermon series, Generational Wisdom, by exploring Joel 2:28–29 and God’s promise to pour out His Spirit on all people. From children to senior adults, we reflect on how wisdom can come from unexpected places and why faith calls us to listen across generations. Join us as we talk about dreams, visions, old sayings, and the reminder that God often speaks through voices we might otherwise overlook.

    Ep. 169 - Shared Truth

    In this final episode of the Sustainable Faith series, we explore the idea of “shared truth” through Jesus’ Great Commission in Matthew 28:16–20. Reflecting on the disciples’ doubts, failures, and faith, we discuss how God calls ordinary, imperfect people to share grace and love with others. Sustainable faith isn’t built on certainty, but on trusting that God is with us—even in doubt, grief, and brokenness—and responding to that truth by becoming “someone with skin on” for others.

    Ep. 168 - Recognized Truth

    In this episode, we explore the story of the road to Emmaus and the idea of “recognized truth” within a sustainable faith. As the disciples wrestle with disappointment and unmet expectations, they fail to see that hope is already walking beside them. Through honest conversation, reflection, and the breaking of bread, we discover how Christ is often present in the ordinary moments we overlook—and how faith can endure even when life doesn’t go as we had hoped.

    Ep. 167 - Omitted Truth

    In this episode, we explore the idea of “omitted truth” as part of our Sustainable Faith series. Looking at Matthew 28, we reflect on how easy it is to reshape or soften truth—both in our stories and in our faith—to protect ourselves. But when faith is built on partial truths, it often crumbles under life’s hardest moments. What does it look like to embrace the full, messy truth instead? This conversation invites us into a more honest, resilient faith—one that can hold doubt, pain, and hope all at once.

    Ep. 166 - Palm Sunday

    In this final episode of the Scandal of the Kindom series, we explore the tension of Palm Sunday—where celebration and uncertainty collide. As Jesus enters Jerusalem, the crowd’s expectations of power are challenged by a humble King riding a donkey, inviting us to reconsider what true salvation, leadership, and faith really look like.
