    An Unchanging Gospel for a Changing World | With René Wagner

    In this episode, we sit down with René Wagner from Zeal Church, one of our partner churches in Germany, to talk about what it means to carry an unchanging Gospel into a constantly changing world. René shares how God is sparking an extraordinary revival in one of the world’s most atheistic cities. What started as a simple prayer for 30 people has grown into a thriving church with hundreds gathering across three campuses. It’s a great reminder that while the way the Church gathers, communicates, and reaches people may shift over time, the Gospel itself never changes. It is timeless, powerful, and relevant in every nation. We’re test-driving this content, so if it’s helpful to you, rate, review, like, and share these episodes.

    How to Stay Sober-Minded in an Outrage-Driven World | Taking Ground Podcast

    In a world full of cultural outrage, political tension, and nonstop noise, how can Christians stay sober-minded? Pastor Aaron and the guys talk about responding thoughtfully instead of reacting emotionally, the difference between disagreement and rage, and why so many people struggle to hold multiple truths at once. They highlight Jesus’s example of being sober-minded and how prayer and fasting can help reset our hearts, sharpen discernment, and guide us to respond with wisdom instead of anxiety. Rather than withdrawing or getting swept up in the chaos, Christians are called to engage with God’s peace, lift their eyes to the harvest field, and live out His mission in a broken world.

    What would happen if you gave God a year? | Taking Ground Podcast

    In this episode, our pastors have a conversation about intentional faith and what it looks like to commit a year of your life to following Jesus with consistency, obedience, and trust. They talk about baptism, how to discern readiness for your kids, and what to do if you were baptized young and now understand your faith more deeply. They also address the cultural moment we are living in. With constant unrest and emotionally charged narratives, they explore how followers of Jesus can slow down, seek truth, pray first, and stay anchored in Scripture while living as ambassadors of God’s kingdom.

    The Power of Clear Truth in a Confusing Culture | Taking Ground Podcast

    What does it mean to be a bold, faithful Christian in today's challenging cultural climate? In this final episode of 2025, Pastor Aaron and the team share how the early church in Acts provides a blueprint for authentic discipleship. Like the first Christians who faced intense opposition yet spoke truth with boldness and compassion, we too must learn to contend for the faith while still showing the love of Jesus. They remind us that clarity about biblical truth is kindness and that staying silent isn’t an option when eternity is on the line. Now is the time to be equipped as disciples who can withstand cultural deception while advancing God's Kingdom with both courage and compassion.

    The Role of Tithing in Spiritual Growth | Taking Ground Podcast

    In this episode, Pastors Aaron, Landon, and Greg have an honest conversation about tithing, generosity, and why they matter so much for our spiritual growth. They look back on the two-year Awaken Initiative, how God met our church in that season, and what has happened since. The conversation breaks down what the Bible says about tithing, how it connects to discipleship, and why it has always been part of following Jesus. You’ll also hear clarity around common misconceptions, the difference between tithes and other gifts, and the reason Jesus talks so much about money. If you’ve ever felt confused about tithing or unsure where to start, this conversation will bring clarity, encouragement, and a practical next step forward.

    How to Be Bold for Jesus and Still Lead With Love | Taking Ground Podcast

He was honest, unafraid to offend when necessary, yet everything He said was rooted in love. Pastor Aaron Brockett is joined by Pastors Landon and Chad as they discuss what it looks like to stand firm in what’s true, speak clearly when it’s uncomfortable, and love people enough to call them higher.
