    B&R #034 | Does Secular Music Belong In Church?

    This week on Bourne & Raised, Tim, Jordan, and Titus unpack the vision behind Genesis Metro Church's newest sermon series, Summer Soundtrack. In this unique series, a secular song is played between worship and the sermon, serving as a bridge into a biblical message rooted in Scripture. The goal isn't to celebrate the music itself, but to meet people where they are, earn a hearing, and point them to Jesus through the truth found in God's Word. The conversation also addresses one of the biggest questions surrounding the series: Should secular music ever have a place in church? Tim, Jordan, and Titus respond to common concerns from Christians who believe the answer is no, discussing the difference between endorsing culture and redeeming opportunities to reach people. They explore the biblical principle of becoming "all things to all people" without compromising the truth of the gospel, and why building bridges can create opportunities for life change. Whether you agree with the approach or have questions about it, this episode is an honest conversation about evangelism, wisdom, and how the Church can faithfully engage the culture without being shaped by it.   CHAPTERS 00:00 Intro 00:44 What Is Summer Soundtrack? 06:37 Addressing Common Concerns 24:42 Life Change From Summer Soundtrack   👍 Like, Comment, and Subscribe for more conversations about faith, leadership, and the story of what God is doing through Genesis Metro. 🔔 Turn on notifications so you never miss the next chapter of The Origin Of Genesis Metro. 👇 JOIN THE CONVERSATION: Has God ever spoken to you through something in the world?   Support the Show: (select fund PODCAST SPONSORSHIP) https://www.kindridgiving.com/app/Form/78ad43d8-65e8-4c98-adee-ddea14e23587 FOR BUSINESS AND SPONSORSHIP INQUIRIES: Bourneandraisedpod@gmail.com   📱 STAY CONNECTED: ▶️ Subscribe on YouTube 📸 Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bourneandra... 🌐 Learn more at: https://www.genesismetro.org/

    B&R #033 | Do You Care Enough To Carry Others? (FC Recap Part 2)

    This week on Bourne & Raised, Tim, Carrie, and Titus continue reflecting on the powerful moments from Fuse Camp as they unpack one of the most inspiring stories in the Gospels: the friends who carried a paralyzed man to Jesus and lowered him through a roof so he could be healed. What made these men so determined? What can we learn from their willingness to overcome every obstacle standing between their friend and Jesus? In this episode, the conversation centers around a powerful truth: "You don't need community... until you need it." We were never meant to follow Jesus alone. God often uses faithful friends to carry us when we cannot carry ourselves, and He calls us to be those kinds of friends for others. Tim, Carrie, and Titus also discuss the importance of refusing to give up when obstacles arise. When a soul is on the line, every roof is worth climbing, every barrier is worth overcoming, and every effort is worth making to help someone encounter Jesus. Whether you're searching for community, walking alongside someone who needs hope, or wondering if your persistence makes a difference, this conversation is a reminder that God often works through ordinary people willing to do extraordinary things for the sake of others.   CHAPTERS 00:00 Intro 00:13 Picking Up Where We Left Off 00:28 Care Enough To Carry 07:23 The Power Of A Smile 09:25 I’m Proud To Share Genesis Metro 12:08 You Don’t Need Community Until You Need It 14:04 Don’t Quit When You See The Crowd 17:23 Your Sins Are Forgiven 24:58 Who Is In Your Life?   👍 Like, Comment, and Subscribe for more conversations about faith, leadership, and the story of what God is doing through Genesis Metro. 🔔 Turn on notifications so you never miss the next chapter of The Origin Of Genesis Metro. 👇 JOIN THE CONVERSATION: Who are your 4?

    This week on Bourne & Raised, Tim, Carrie, and Titus Bourne take you behind the scenes of Fuse Camp 2026, sharing the vision, creativity, and biblical foundation that made this year's camp so impactful. The conversation begins by exploring what sets Fuse Camp apart and why every experience is intentionally designed to help students engage with God's Word in unforgettable ways. They also share how an unexpected conversation on a podcast helped inspire this year's theme, A New Story, leading students to wrestle with one life-changing question: Do you want to be healed? Tim, Carrie, and Titus then walk through the first two nights of camp, unpacking the stories of Lazarus and the man at the Pool of Bethesda. They discuss how these passages challenged students to believe God can bring dead things back to life, embrace healing, and step into the new story He is writing for them. Whether you're a parent, student, church leader, or simply someone longing for a fresh start, this episode is a reminder that no story is too broken for God to redeem.   CHAPTERS 00:00 Intro 01:10 What Makes Fuse Camp Different? 08:00 The Inspiration Behind "A New Story" 16:30 Night One: Lazarus & Believing Bigger 23:15 Night Two: Do You Want to Be Healed?   👍 Like, Comment, and Subscribe for more conversations about faith, leadership, and the story of what God is doing through Genesis Metro. 🔔 Turn on notifications so you never miss the next chapter of The Genesis Metro Story. 👇 JOIN THE CONVERSATION: What does "A New Story" mean to you in this season of life?   Support the Show: (select fund PODCAST SPONSORSHIP) https://www.kindridgiving.com/app/Form/78ad43d8-65e8-4c98-adee-ddea14e23587 FOR BUSINESS AND SPONSORSHIP INQUIRIES: Bourneandraisedpod@gmail.com   📱 STAY CONNECTED: ▶️ Subscribe on YouTube 📸 Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bourneandra... 🌐 Learn more at: https://www.genesismetro.org/

    B&R #031 | The Origin Of Genesis Metro, Part 5

    This week on Bourne & Raised, Tim, Carrie, and Jordan Bourne continue The Origin Of Genesis Metro with Part 5 of the ongoing story behind the church's beginnings, growth, and mission. The episode begins with the phrase, "You have not, because you ask not," a saying that became a defining mindset during Genesis Metro's search for land. Tim, Carrie, and Jordan look back on the conversations, decisions, and moments of faith that ultimately led to securing the property where God would continue writing the church's story. The conversation then turns to the significance of "This Rock Is My Witness." Looking back on the journey, they discuss the moments where God left unmistakable reminders of His faithfulness and the tangible markers that continue to point back to His promises. Those milestones became lasting testimonies that strengthened their confidence in God's direction. Finally, they explore the idea that numbers represent souls. While growth is often measured by attendance, they share why every number tells the story of a person whose life has been impacted by the Gospel. Rather than celebrating statistics, they reflect on the eternal significance behind every individual who walks through the doors of Genesis Metro. More than a story about acquiring land or growing a church, this episode is a reminder that God honors bold faith, remains faithful to His promises, and values every life that is changed through His work.   CHAPTERS 00:00 Intro 04:53 You Have Not Because You Ask Not 13:22 This Rock Is My Witness 16:18 Numbers Represent Souls   👍 Like, Comment, and Subscribe for more conversations about faith, leadership, and the story of what God is doing through Genesis Metro. 🔔 Turn on notifications so you never miss the next chapter of The Genesis Metro Story. 👇 JOIN THE CONVERSATION: What seed are you planting today that you're believing God will grow in the future?   Support the Show: (select fund PODCAST SPONSORSHIP) https://www.kindridgiving.com/app/Form/78ad43d8-65e8-4c98-adee-ddea14e23587 FOR BUSINESS AND SPONSORSHIP INQUIRIES: Bourneandraisedpod@gmail.com   📱 STAY CONNECTED: ▶️ Subscribe on YouTube 📸 Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bourneandra... 🌐 Learn more at: https://www.genesismetro.org/

    B&R #030 | The Origin Of Genesis Metro, Part 4

    This week on Bourne & Raised, Tim, Carrie, and Jordan Bourne continue The Origin Of Genesis Metro with Part 4 of the ongoing story behind the church’s beginnings, growth, and mission. The episode begins with a conversation about The Law of the Harvest and the reality that meaningful ministry rarely produces immediate results. Looking back on the early years, Tim and Carrie reflect on the seeds that were planted through faith, obedience, and perseverance long before the fruit became visible. The conversation then turns to the early mission work of Genesis Metro Church. As the church began to establish its identity, a passion for reaching people beyond its walls became a defining characteristic. Together, they share stories from those early outreach efforts and discuss how serving others helped shape the culture and vision that still exists today. Finally, they explore the idea of choosing Kingdom over comfort. Throughout Genesis Metro's journey, some of the most significant moments of growth required sacrifice, risk, and a willingness to trust God's plan over personal convenience. More than a church history lesson, this conversation is a reminder that God honors faithfulness, growth takes time, and the greatest impact often comes when we choose His Kingdom over our comfort.   CHAPTERS 00:00 Intro 02:03 The Law Of The Harvest 13:13 Early Mission Work Of Genesis Metro 28:14 Kingdom Over Comfort   👍 Like, Comment, and Subscribe for more conversations about faith, leadership, and the story of what God is doing through Genesis Metro. 🔔 Turn on notifications so you never miss the next chapter of The Genesis Metro Story. 👇 JOIN THE CONVERSATION: What seed are you planting today that you're believing God will grow in the future?   Support the Show: (select fund PODCAST SPONSORSHIP) https://www.kindridgiving.com/app/Form/78ad43d8-65e8-4c98-adee-ddea14e23587 FOR BUSINESS AND SPONSORSHIP INQUIRIES: Bourneandraisedpod@gmail.com   📱 STAY CONNECTED: ▶️ Subscribe on YouTube 📸 Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bourneandra... 🌐 Learn more at: https://www.genesismetro.org/

    This week on Bourne & Raised, we continue The Origin Of Genesis Metro series with Week 3, as Tim, Carrie, and Jordan Bourne step further into the early story of Genesis Metro Church. In this episode, the Bournes revisit the very first environments of the church, meeting in elementary schools and building community from the ground up long before a permanent space ever existed. They reflect on what those early days looked like, what made those seasons so formative, and how God was already establishing something unique in the DNA of Genesis Metro. A key part of this conversation is what truly sets Genesis Metro apart. From culture to calling, the family unpacks the markers of identity that began forming in those earliest gatherings and how those values continue to shape the church today. Jordan also shares personal childhood memories of growing up around the church as it was being built, offering a unique perspective on watching vision turn into reality over time. Together, they highlight the spiritual and practical markers of growth that signaled God was steadily building something lasting. This episode is both reflective and foundational, showing how God often builds His church step by step, in ordinary spaces, through faithful people.

    B&R #028 | The Origin Of Genesis Metro, Part 2

    This week on Bourne & Raised, Tim and Carrie Bourne continue The Origin Of Genesis Metro, picking up right where Part 1 left off. As the vision for Genesis Metro Church began to take shape, Tim and Carrie quickly discovered that starting a church required far more than they ever realized. What began as a calling from God soon revealed countless challenges, needs, and opportunities that could never have been accomplished alone. In this episode, they share stories of the relationships, friendships, mentors, and supporters God strategically placed in their lives during those early years. They reflect on the people who believed in the vision, invested in the mission, and helped carry the weight of building something far bigger than either of them could have imagined. More than a church history lesson, this conversation is a reminder that God rarely accomplishes His work through isolated individuals. He works through community, partnership, encouragement, and faithful people who say yes to His calling. Tim and Carrie take time to honor those who helped turn a dream into a thriving church and demonstrate how God's provision often comes through relationships. This episode highlights the power of gratitude, the importance of community, and the reality that every great work of God is built on the faithfulness of many people. This is Part 2 of an ongoing series chronicling the story, vision, and legacy of Genesis Metro Church.   CHAPTERS 00:00 Intro 00:17 The Call 12:25 Rant Break 17:10 Back To The Call 21:22 Denominational Backing? 23:57 The Bourne’s First Jobs In Frisco 30:09 Genesis Metro's First Places 33:40 Apologies From Gen Z Break 34:23 God Provides 40:36 How Do We Start A Church? 53:49 Outro   👍 Like, Comment, and Subscribe for more conversations about faith, leadership, and the story of what God is doing through Genesis Metro. 🔔 Turn on notifications so you never miss the next chapter of The Genesis Metro Story. 👇 JOIN THE CONVERSATION: Have you ever stepped out in faith to start something new?
