    Ep. 86 - The Shepherd's Joy (Luke 2:8-20) ft. Jana English, Tryg Veker, Libby VanSolkema

    In this episode, we dive into Luke 2:8-20. Often overlooked, the shepherds were the first to hear the message of Jesus’ birth—the greatest announcement in history. We explore why these humble, lowly figures were chosen to receive God’s revelation, and what this means for how we view God's message and His priorities. The episode unpacks the revelation itself: the good news of the birth of a Savior in a humble manger, and the functional gospels in our life. We reflect on the significance of the shepherds’ response—not just to marvel at the message but to act on it by telling others the good news they received. Join us as we explore the deeper meanings behind this passage: Who are the recipients of God's message? How does God reveal Himself to us today? And how can we respond like the shepherds—by sharing the joy and hope of Christ’s birth with others?

    Ep. 84 - When God Pushes the Mute Button (Luke 1:5-22) ft. Tryg Veker, Rod Vansolkema, Libby VanSolkema, Quinn Humphrey

    In this episode, we explore the Advent narrative of Zechariah and Elizabeth from Luke 1:5-22, focusing on the themes of faith versus religion, waiting versus instant gratification, and silence versus noise. Zechariah and Elizabeth, despite their deep religious devotion, struggle with the tension between outward faith and inward doubt, reminding us that true faith often grows in the spaces of silence and unanswered prayers. In a culture that demands immediate results, their long wait for a child challenges our desire for instant gratification, while Zechariah’s moment of divine silence—muted by God after his doubt—reveals how God’s quiet presence can be more profound than a world filled with noise and quick answers. This story invites us to reflect on how we navigate the quiet moments of our own faith journeys and the tension between our desires for immediate responses and the deeper growth that comes through patience.

    Ep. 83 - What's So Hard About Forgiveness? (Genesis 50) ft. Sam Sterk, Rod VanSolkema, Libby VanSolkema, Tryg Veker

    We sit down with Sam Sterk (vice-chair of Crossroads Elder Board) as we dive into the often difficult topic of forgiveness, Using the powerful story in Genesis 50 as our backdrop, we look at Joseph's reconciliation with his brothers and how it offers profound insights into the challenges of forgiveness and the healing power it can bring. But we don’t stop there. We take a step back to explore the larger meta-narrative of Scripture—the overarching story of Creation, Fall, Redemption, and New Creation. From the good world God intended in Genesis 1 to the brokenness brought by sin, and the redemptive work of Jesus on the cross, forgiveness is at the heart of God's plan for restoring all things. Join us as we wrestle with why forgiveness is so hard, how God models it throughout Scripture, and the transformative power it holds for both individuals and communities.

    We sit down with pastor and author AJ Sherill to talk about Advent and his new book Rediscovering Christmas. Are you tired of feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, and empty during the holiday season?
