    Episode 134: A Prayer for Jesus' Disciples

    In this final episode of the year, Brenton and Chris wrap up their conversation around John 17 and what it means to live in the world without becoming like it. They talk about the two common extremes Christians fall into—blending in with culture or separating into a bubble—and why Jesus calls us to something harder. Chris also explains why believers shouldn’t be shocked by opposition, and why Jesus teaches us to respond with joy and faith instead of retaliation. They touch on spiritual warfare and how Satan and our own sin often overlap in the battle we see around us. The episode closes with a hopeful reminder about security in Christ, sanctification as being wholly dedicated to God, and why Christmas matters in the middle of heavy topics.

    Episode 133: A Prayer for God's Glory

    On this week’s episode of Further, Brenton and Chris kick things off with a quick update on the holiday schedule and a preview of an upcoming All-In mini-series on loving God with our minds. They dive into John 17 and talk about Jesus’ prayer as a kind of “last will and testament,” focusing on God’s glory as His goodness on display and how the Trinity has always been glorifying and celebrating one another. Chris and Brenton wrestle with why God seeking His own glory isn’t selfish, and how that actually ends up being for our good and our joy. They also unpack Jesus’ definition of eternal life as knowing the only true God and Jesus Christ—not just “going to heaven when we die,” but a restored relationship with God that starts now. To close, Chris shares real-life stories from within Harmony of people being transformed “from one degree of glory to another” as they behold God’s goodness in the middle of suffering, repentance, sacrifice, and everyday faithfulness.

    Episode 132: Indestructible Joy

    On this week’s episode of Further, Brenton Grimm sits down with Clay Baker to talk about what biblical joy really is and how it’s different from simple happiness. They unpack how joy can coexist with sorrow and suffering, looking at passages like Nehemiah, Philippians 4, Habakkuk 3, and John 16 to show that our joy is rooted in Christ’s person, work, and presence, not in our circumstances. Clay shares personally about negative thought patterns, music, and habits, and how filling our minds with gospel truth and good rhythms of prayer, Scripture, and fellowship shapes our experience of joy. They also talk about how God uses our suffering for our good, for the good of others, and for His glory, even when we’re impatient for relief or for Jesus’ return. Finally, they connect Harmony’s “remember, rehearse, respond” framework for corporate worship to everyday life, encouraging listeners to carry those same gospel-centered patterns into their week so that their joy may be full.

    Episode 131: The Convicting Work of the Holy Spirit

    On this week’s episode of Further, Brenton and Chris dig into John 16 and the often-misunderstood “unforgivable sin,” clarifying it as a persistent refusal to believe the Holy Spirit’s witness about Jesus. They talk through the difference between conviction and condemnation, showing how God uses guilt and shame not to crush us, but to draw us back to Himself in grace. Chris unpacks how unbelief sits underneath all our sins—even as believers—and how our constant drive to “prove ourselves” is really a longing to get back to the righteousness we lost in Eden. They also explore how self-righteousness shows up in everyday things like parenting, marriage, performance, appearance, and even sports, and how the Spirit slowly teaches us to rest more in Christ’s righteousness instead of our own. Finally, they discuss the Holy Spirit’s convicting work through the church, the dangers of acting like the “sin police,” and why our primary aim with others must be to point them to Jesus, not just to behavior change.

    Episode 130: Expect to be Hated

    On this week’s episode of Further, Brenton Grimm sits down with Nathan Williams to unpack John 15 and what it really means to count the cost of following Jesus today. They talk through modern forms of persecution—from lost jobs to lost friendships—and how to avoid confusing bold faith with just being combative. Nathan explains what it looks like to “speak the truth in love,” aiming to reach people with humility and compassion while refusing to compromise biblical truth. Looking to the early church, they explore how joy can coexist with suffering when our aim is God’s glory. The episode wraps up with practical encouragement to pray, rely on the Spirit, lead with love, and be bold enough to speak truth even when it costs something.

    Episode 129: Love & Obedience

    In this week’s episode, Brenton and Chris talk about a quick life update—moving locally and celebrating 14 years at Harmony—before diving back into John 14. We unpack why the relationship between love and obedience is both a theological and practical struggle, tracing debates from Romans, Galatians, and James to today’s churches. Chris contrasts the ditches of legalism and progressive “anything goes,” emphasizing that law and grace aren’t enemies but meet in the gospel. We explore diagnostics for our motives—fear, self-justification, or genuine love for Jesus—and apply it to parenting with firm-but-not-harsh guidance that keeps relationship central.

    Episode 128: The Paraclete

    In this week’s Further, Brenton and Chris dive deep into Jesus’ promise of the Holy Spirit in John 14 and why it was actually to the disciples’ advantage that He go away. They unpack how the Spirit continues Jesus’ ministry today as our advocate, comforter, counselor, and friend, and why so many believers either overlook or misunderstand His work. Chris explains how our cultural views, busyness, and fear of surrender often keep us from walking in step with the Spirit. The two also talk about practical ways to listen, study Scripture in community, and depend on the Spirit daily. They close by contrasting the world’s temporary peace with the lasting peace Jesus offers through His Spirit, even when life feels uncertain.

    Episode 127: Let Go and Get God

    In this episode of Further, Brenton Grimm sits down with pastors Clay Baker and Matt Mitchell to talk about why prayer can feel difficult and how we can grow in it. They unpack common struggles like self-reliance, distraction, and routine prayers that feel empty, and share practical ways to experience real intimacy with God. The conversation also clarifies Jesus’ promise that believers will do “greater works,” explaining that it’s about the Spirit’s power working through ordinary people, not outdoing Jesus Himself. Clay and Matt encourage faithfulness in everyday life — from parenting to ordinary service — and show how true joy and lasting impact flow from abiding in Christ. They wrap up with practical tips for a richer prayer life, like praying Scripture, journaling, and starting your quiet time with prayer.
