    Out of Hiding: Healing Sexual Shame | Life in Motion

    In a culture overflowing with sexual messages, many of us are quietly carrying questions, confusion, or even shame around the topic of sex. It’s no secret this conversation still feels a little taboo, even among Christians. But Scripture isn’t silent on sex—and we shouldn’t be either.   Here’s the truth: shame keeps us from the good things God has for us.   In this episode, Heather and Jamie explore the roots of sexual shame and how we can move from hiding to healing—stepping into the light to be fully known and restored.   Show Notes:  Book Recommendations: Embodied by Gregg Allison The Great Sex Rescue by Sheila Wray Gregoire How and When to Tell Your Kids about Sex by Stan and Brenna Jones The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van Der Kolk M.D.   Want to connect with a pastor?

    From Compromise to Community: The Invitation of Judges | Tell Me More

    Let’s be honest—Judges is one of those books in the Bible that makes you pause and say, “Wait… what?” The stories are full of deeply flawed people doing questionable things. But they also hold up a mirror to our own human condition. They reveal our drift, our compromise, our self-reliance. And they whisper a question that echoes throughout the Old Testament: Who will save us?   In this episode, Whit George and Angela Ekstrum what the book of Judges shows us about the state of our hearts and the faithfulness of God.   Show notes:   In this episode, they reference Judges for You by Timothy Keller   Check Out the Message | Counter Culture, The Reality of Sin, & God's Unrelenting Faithfulness: https://youtu.be/1Nzx1EnO0mw?si=0Je9rFnsTOyyBEE8 Time Stamps: 0:00 – A Journey Worth Sharing 2:00 – Angela: From “Not a Pastor” to Bible Boss 5:00 – Finding Her Voice in Scripture 8:00 – Rethinking How We Read the Bible 14:00 – Judges: A Mirror of the Human Heart 18:00 – Wrestling with Divine Judgment 24:00 – Justice, Mercy, and God's Restraint 30:00 – Forming a Counter-Culture People 36:00 – Community is Not Optional 41:00 – Growth Through the Grind 46:00 – Generational Faith & Forgotten Stories 54:00 – God Allows Testing for Our Good 1:03:00 – Everyday Faithfulness in a Watching World 1:10:00 – Living as Light in the Darkness 1:17:00 – The God Who Keeps Showing Up 1:26:00 – Commitment, Complacency, and Coming Home

    From Shame to Renewal: Rethinking Sex | Life in Motion

    What do you do with a gift you never really learned how to use? We often treat sex like the expensive china we registered for but never use—beautiful in theory, awkward in practice. But sex isn’t just skin-deep.   In this episode, Heather and Jamie talked about how our minds—and marriages—need renewing. Jamie shares the invisible legacy of trauma passed down through her family, while Heather opens up about the pressure to “perform” intimacy without ever being taught what godly sexual intimacy actually looks like. Let’s renew our minds together!    Show Notes: Book Recommendations: Embodied by Gregg Allison The Great Sex Rescue by Sheila Wray Gregoire How and When to Tell Your Kids about Sex by Stan and Brenna Jones   Want to connect with a pastor?

  4. Sanctification: The Forgotten Half of Salvation | Tell Me More

    MAY 20

    Sanctification: The Forgotten Half of Salvation | Tell Me More

    We often frame salvation around a single emotional moment: Did you pray the prayer? But that question doesn’t show up in Scripture. American Christianity has often reduced the gospel to an afterlife insurance policy: believe in Jesus and go to heaven when you die. But if your concept of heaven doesn’t require Jesus to be there, you’ve misunderstood what Jesus came to do.   In this episode, Pastors Whit and Lee explore justification and sanctification and how God is not just after our destination; He’s after our transformation.   Show notes: Check Out the Message: Finding the Great Purpose of Your Life Through Sanctification - https://youtu.be/Lr51g34nqYE   Timestamps: 0:12–2:18 – Challenging insights and views on sanctification 2:18–4:10 – Sanctification through Scripture: Egypt as metaphor 4:10–5:33 – Justification vs. sanctification: guilt vs. power of sin 5:33–8:01 – Can you be justified without evidence of sanctification? 8:01–10:22 – Emotionalism, altar calls, and shallow gospel messaging 10:22–14:26 – Embracing justification daily fuels the process of sanctification 14:26–17:20 – Fruit is evidence: Why sanctification isn’t optional 20:02–22:05 – If heaven doesn’t require Jesus, it’s not heaven 24:57–26:12 – False religion vs. real devotion to Christ 30:56–36:08 – Exodus: A picture of justification and sanctification 38:01–42:20 – Jesus = joyful life, not necessarily pleasurable 42:20–47:05 – Sanctification vs. optimization: becoming like Jesus vs. better you 50:15–52:36 – Self-awareness comes from looking at God, not within 52:36–55:01 – Sanctification begins in our weaknesses 1:00:46–1:02:06 – Ask the Holy Spirit for help in the process 1:06:01–1:09:16 – Orient your whole life toward Jesus

    Justification: A Finished Work | Tell Me More

    Justification is what God has done for you, said about you, and declared over you. Nothing needs to be added, it is complete. But for many, what Jesus has done sits in an invisible world that you feel you cannot see or access. So, how do you begin to apply this finished work in your lives?   Show Notes: Whit's Message: The Doctrine of Justification by Grace & Faith https://youtu.be/_audYAqqeWs Ethan's Message: The Miracle of Justification https://youtu.be/4ODvAz54MsE    Great Doctrines of the Bible - Martyn Lloyd-Jones Dynamics of Spiritual Life: An Evangelical Theology of Renewal - Richard F.

    Doctrine, Doxology, & the Death of the Old Self | Tell Me More

    Renewal isn’t just fresh vision or passion—it’s also a painful shedding of sin, pride, and your false self. When life hits—when the diagnosis comes, the relationship ends, the silence of God feels deafening—your theology will show up. Whether you realize it or not, the beliefs you’ve built in the quiet seasons will become the framework you lean on in the storms.   In this episode, pastors Whit George and Blake Zimmerman explore shame, guilt, and performance, the beliefs that make us Christians, and personal experiences of renewal through suffering.     Show Notes: Spiritual Awareness: God's Holiness & The Depth of Your Sin https://youtu.be/r4ObZy5SKf4 Time Stamps: 00:05:02 — Doctrinal conversations to have when dating 00:09:00 — Christian Orthodoxy = The Creeds 00:10:45 — Die For, Divide For, Debate For, Decide For 00:15:00 — "A Divine Shoulder Tap" 00:18:40 — Navigating the Loss of a Child 00:26:15 — Renewal: An Acceleration of the Normal Work of God 00:28:00 — Doctrine of Revelation: God Always Goes First 00:29:55 — Awareness of Sin 00:39:00 — Levels of Sin 00:41:45 — What it Means to Be Holy 00:47:00 — Everything Begins with Doxology 00:51:00 — Navigating Guilt & Shame

    The Hidden Work of Renewal | Tell Me More

    Renewal isn’t about becoming a "better" version of ourselves; it’s about becoming who God intended us to be — and that process always begins before revival ever reaches the world around us.   In this episode, Whit and Casey explore the often-overlooked power of writing as a way to process with God — and how it creates space for the Holy Spirit to reveal what’s hidden beneath the surface. They dive into what renewal really means, why it’s more than just a one-time event, and how personal transformation is tied to surrender, honesty, and preaching the gospel to ourselves daily.    Show Notes:   Check Out the Message: Transformation in You: The Spirit-Led Process of Renewal - https://youtu.be/BVBI3wYswUY

    Sex & the Church: Let’s Start the Conversation | Life in Motion

    What shaped your understanding of sex growing up? Was it a quiet conversation with a parent, an awkward health class, a warning laced with shame? For many of us—especially those raised in Christian homes—our foundational beliefs about sex were vague, fear-based, or simply unspoken. We may have heard “don’t do it until you’re married,” but little else. And the unspoken message? Sex is bad… until one day, magically, it’s good.   We believe it’s time to talk. This summer, we’re inviting experts, sharing real stories, surfacing hard questions, and pointing back to God’s truth. Because God cares deeply about sex. He designed it. And He wants something better for all of us. Let’s break the silence—together.   Content Warning: This episode is best suited for those ages 16 and up.   Show notes:   We want to hear from you!
