    Ep. 153 - Would You Risk Your Life For The Gospel? - Pastor James Folkerts

    Would you risk your life to share the Gospel? It’s a question few of us are called to ask but for missionaries, it is a reality they face. Joining us to explore the topic of World Missions is Pastor James Folkerts who with his family spent many years on the mission field and knows what it means to count the cost. We discuss his story, the barriers missionaries face and why overseas missions still matter even though the nations have come to us. We hope this episode encourages you to think about what it means to send, to go and to pray for the Gospel to reach every tribe, tongue and nation.

    Ep. 152 - Recovering Family Worship - Dr. Brian Najapfour

    Family worship is one of the most neglected practices in the Christian home today. What is family worship, and how is it different from simply reading the Bible or praying before/after a meal? In this episode, pastor and author Dr. Brian Najapfour joins us to discuss the biblical foundation for family worship, why it matters, and why worshipping together as a family is a grateful response to all Christ has done for us. Whether you're just getting started or looking to strengthen an existing family rhythm, this conversation will encourage you to intentionally make your home a place where the Lord is worshipped.

    Ep. 151 - How To Lead Your Family - Dr. Joel Beeke

    Most men would say they would die for their wives and children. But will they live for them? In this episode, we're joined by author and theologian Dr. Joel Beeke to discuss what biblical headship actually looks like. In a culture where leadership is often misunderstood, avoided, or distorted, we explore God's calling for men to lead their families with humility, conviction, and Christ-like love. From the frame work of prophet, priest and king, we chat about holy habits,  marriage, discipline, and family leadership. This conversation offers both practical wisdom and gospel hope for husbands and fathers. To learn more be sure to pick up a copy of Dr. Beeke’s book How To Lead Your Family here!

    Ep. 150 - Are We Giving God Our Leftovers? - Rev. Hank Van der Woerd

    What does true generosity actually look like? Have we reduced giving to percentages and leftovers, while missing the heart behind it all? In this episode, we’re joined by Rev. Henk Van der Woerd to discuss the biblical role of deacons, the ministry of mercy, and how generosity reflects the very character of God. From church leadership to stewardship and practical care, this conversation challenges the way we think about money, service, and the life of the church. To listen to Rev.

    Ep. 149 - The Kindness of God in Guilt & Conviction - Matt King

    What do we do with guilt? Is conviction something to fear—or could it actually be one of the ways God lovingly draws us back to Himself? In part two of this conversation with Pastor Matt King, we talk honestly about sin, confession, repentance, and the difference between shame and guilt. We unpack why guilt, when understood rightly, isn’t meant to crush us, but can be a gift of God’s kindness that leads us back into relationship with Him. We also explore what it means when we don’t feel convicted, the importance of confession in the Christian life, “gospel gaps” between what we believe and how we live, and how the Church is meant to walk with one another through sin with both truth and grace. 0:00 - How are shame and guilt different? 8:00 - Dealing with guilt 14:00 - Shame and guilt proneness 29:00 - What if we don’t feel convicted? 38:00 - Confession and repentance 48:00 - Counseling and the Church 56:00 - Corporate confession 1:02:00 - Sharing vs. burdening A BIG THANKS TO OUR SPONSOR, NEERALTA, BUILDERS OF GRAIN STORAGE AND HANDLING EQUIPMENT.

    Ep. 148 - Jesus Took On Shame So You Don't Have To - Matt King

    Shame can be one of the most powerful forces shaping our lives and most of the time, we don’t even realize it. In this episode, we go back to Genesis 3 to see where shame begins, then unpack how it still works today, distorting our thoughts, and changing how we see God, ourselves  and others. But shame doesn’t get the final word. Joined again by fan favorite, Pastor Matt King We talk about how Jesus steps directly into our shame, takes it on Himself, and what it actually looks like to start “shaming shame.” Stay tuned for part 2 of this conversation on guilt, conviction and confession of sin… you won’t want to miss it. 0:00 Intro 7:00 Genesis 3 11:00 Can shame be redeemed? 13:15 How shame works 35:00 Jesus enters our shame 56:00 How to shame shame A BIG THANKS TO OUR OFFICIAL SPONSOR, TRIVAN!

    Ep. 147 - Lead with Intention or Lose the Mission - Peter Greer

    Mission drift is real and whether we realize it or not, it can happen to even the best of organizations and people. In this episode, we’re joined by Peter Greer, author of the book Mission Drift, to talk about how drift happens and how to avoid it. Even with the best intentions, it’s easy to lose focus over time—and often, you don’t realize it until you’re already off course. Through real examples, we unpack the subtle warning signs of mission drift, the influence of culture, and how leadership decisions, people, and priorities can quietly shift your direction. This conversation is about staying intentional—whether you’re leading something or simply trying to stay grounded in what matters most. To learn more, be sure to pick up a copy of Mission Drift.    A BIG THANKS TO OUR SPONSOR, NEERALTA, BUILDERS OF GRAIN STORAGE AND HANDLING EQUIPMENT. BE SURE TO CHECK THEM OUT AT WWW. NEERALTA.COM!

    Ep. 146 - Life Together: Cultivating a Ministry of Small Things - Dr. Reuben Bredenhof

    We are all called to minister to others and the most meaningful ministry often happens quietly, in the small acts we often overlook. Joining us for this conversation is CRTS Professor and the author of The Ministry of Small Things, Dr. Reuben Bredenhof. We discuss the temptation to do big things, how we can cultivate a ministry of small things and the effects this kind of work has both on the one who receives and the one who gives.
