    Daniel and Identity: How Christians Can Live in Culture Without Being Controlled by It | Off Central Podcast

    Send Us a Message! How should Christians live in culture without being shaped by it? In this episode of Off Central, we explore the story of Daniel in Babylon and what it reveals about identity, cultural pressure, and discipleship. Daniel lived fully immersed in a powerful culture, yet he refused to let it define him. Instead of pursuing influence or self-preservation, Daniel chose holiness over power—and his faith changed the culture around him. This episode breaks down what identity markers are, how culture shapes our beliefs, and why clear values lead to clearer decisions. We challenge the idea of cultural Christianity and ask a hard question: Is culture controlling you, or is Christ forming you? From appetite and comfort to discipline and prayer, Daniel’s life shows us how to stay committed to God regardless of circumstances. If you’re wrestling with faith, culture, and discipleship—or wondering how to follow Jesus without withdrawing from the world—this conversation will help you pre-decide to stay the course. Topics include: Daniel in Babylon • Christian identity • culture vs discipleship • holiness • prayer and discipline • living for God in a secular world Support the show The Off Central Podcast is designed to enrich your faith and your life between Sundays.

    7 Questions for Small Groups | Off Central Podcast

    Send Us a Message! In this episode, we unpack 7 Questions to Wrestle With in Your Small Group—questions designed to spark authentic conversation, deepen spiritual maturity, and challenge how we walk out our faith in everyday life. From fun icebreakers to deep theological reflection, these seven questions help groups move beyond surface-level discussion and into honest, formational dialogue: • Who’s your favorite Bible character—and why? • Silence & solitude or fasting?  • What is a key spiritual discipline missing in today’s church? • What’s the biggest misconception people have about pastors? • What is the global Church doing well—and what is it missing? • If you could ask Jesus one question, what would it be? • What has Western culture misunderstood about Jesus? These questions will stretch your thinking, challenge assumptions, and help your group grow in faith and unity. Whether you're a leader or a participant, this episode will equip you to build stronger, more meaningful small group conversations.

    The 4 Stages of Discipleship: From Skeptic to Servant | Off Central Podcast

    Send Us a Message! In this episode of Off Central, we unpack the 4 stages of discipleship—a journey that every follower of Jesus walks through in some way. From the Skeptic, who wrestles with doubt and calling… to the Curious, who asks honest questions in search of truth… to the Hungry, who can’t get enough teaching, podcasts, and worship… to the Feeder, who turns around and pours into others— each stage reveals something powerful about how God forms us. We talk about how to create safe spaces for questions, how to move from curiosity to conviction, and how to equip believers to become disciple-makers. Whether you’re leading others or just figuring out your faith, this episode will help you see where you are—and how God wants to grow you into someone who multiplies His work in others.

    Did We Get the ‘End Times’ Wrong? | Shane Willard | Off Central Podcast

    Send Us a Message! If you weren’t told it at six, would you still believe it now? This week on Off Central, we sit down with Shane Willard to rethink what we’ve always been told about “the end times.” Maybe Jesus wasn’t predicting the end of the world — maybe He was announcing the end of an age and the beginning of something new. We talk about why fear-based faith doesn’t hold up in adulthood, how endings in Scripture always lead to resurrection, and why every “apocalypse” might just be a doorway to renewal.

    Conspiracy, Technology & Faith w/ Shane Willard | Off Central Podcast

    Send Us a Message! In a world flooded with information, algorithms, and conspiracy theories, how do we think critically without losing our spiritual compass? Shane Willard joins us on Off Central to unpack the ultracrepidarian tendencies of our digital age—when everyone has an opinion, but not all opinions are wise. We explore: The spiritual implications of constant media consumption. How technology can either reinforce agreement or encourage moral clarity. Ways to posture online with compassion rather than simply fight for beliefs. Rules for using tech that honor God and follow Jesus’ teachings from the Sermon on the Mount.
