    Episode 382 – Challenging Stuff in the Bible: The 10th Plague

    This week on the Beyond Sunday Podcast, we continue our monthly series on difficult passages of Scripture by exploring the death of the firstborn in Exodus. It’s a challenging section of the Bible, and we wrestle honestly with our discomfort while considering how God’s love might still be seen in the middle of a troubling story. Plus… are Reese’s tasting a little fake these days? All that and more.

    Episode 381 – Service and Worship

    This week on the podcast, we take a thoughtful look at Christian service and charity. Why do some Christians seem to prioritize worship over acts of mercy? And why does the perception persist that Christians aren’t very charitable when the data tells a different story? Plus, what exactly should Florida do when iguanas start falling from the sky? All this and more on this week’s episode.

    Episode 380 – Performative Redemption

    This week on the podcast, we dive into the idea of redemption — how it actually works spiritually, and why we’re sometimes quick to declare someone “redeemed” even when there’s little evidence of real change. Using the public stories surrounding Pastor Robert Morris and Kid Rock’s halftime performance as starting points, we wrestle with what true repentance and transformation should look like. Plus: What are the odds you’d actually be abducted by aliens in Ohio? An article from the show: https://www.christianpost.com/news/god-has-forgiven-gateway-founder-robert-morris-says-protege.html

    Episode 379 – The Great Omission

    Biblical literacy is declining—not just in broader culture, but even among faithful churchgoers. Has an overly seeker-sensitive approach weakened our discipleship? In this episode, we explore why deep engagement with Scripture matters and how churches can retrain their people to read, understand, and love the Bible. Plus, a surprising announcement: a “conservative, family-friendly” Super Bowl halftime alternative featuring Kid Rock is headed to Trinity Broadcast Network. We unpack why this is a bigger—and more troubling—deal than it might first appear. All that, and we reveal the new must-have item at every party.

    Episode 378 – Challenging Parts of the Bible: Romans 13

    Our new Bible series this year focuses on passages of Scripture that can be difficult to navigate or know what to do with. This month, we take a closer look at Romans 13, examining how Paul understands the role of government and how Christians are called to approach faithfulness and obedience to the law. This passage has often been used to silence dissent—but is that truly Paul’s intent, or is there a more faithful and nuanced way to read it? ‍Here is an article we used to jump-start our conversation: https://www.christianitytoday.com/2026/01/christians-romans-13-ice-shooting-minneapolis/ Don’t forget to subscribe, rate, and review the podcast and to share it with your friends, families, neighbors, and strangers!

    Episode 376 – The Holiness of Unhappiness

    We often feel pressure to be happy in faith… but what happens when we just aren’t feeling it. Do we subconsciously expect that being a follower of Jesus will make us happy and how do we combat against that. All this and more!

    JAN 12

    Episode 375 – Spiritual Growth vs Self-Improvement

    We often get confused by what is spiritual growth or what is just self improvement, so we explore how we can better tell the difference between becoming a better you or becoming more like Jesus.
