    What Pushes Adult Children Away: Matthias Barker | Episode 397

    We're the most over-parented generation in history, yet woundedness and estrangement keep rising. Psychotherapist Matthias Barker explains why: even loving acts, when driven by fear instead of trust, land on kids as pressure. A question feels like interrogation, concern feels like judgment. Barker walks through how this plays out across generations and what it takes for parents to move past their own defenses and truly see their child's heart.

    Navigating Our Hypersexualized Culture: Nala Ray, Joshua Broome & Rorisang Thandekiso | Episode 396

    This week, we'll listen in on a past breakout session about navigating our hypersexualized culture with insight from Nala Ray, Joshua Broome, and Rorisang Thandekiso. We live in a time where pornography is hard to avoid instead of hard to find. That's why it's so important to guard our hearts and minds; this world is saturated with sexual temptation, but that's not the lifestyle God has for us. Listen to how these speakers grappled with their hypersexualized lifestyle and, ultimately, found peace and purity in Jesus. Resources: Sign up for THINQ Summit 2026 October 1-3 in Nashville, TN.

    Navigating Crisis in the Moment: David Middlebrook & Lawrence Swicegood | Episode 395

    This week, we're sharing a past breakout session about navigating crisis with insight from David Middlebrook and Lawrence  Swicegood. We live in a time where it's not a matter of if a crisis hits your church or organization, but when, and how you respond can shape everything that follows. That's why it's so important to prepare ahead of time; this world offers no airtight plan, but that's not a reason to face crisis without wisdom. Listen to how these leaders unpack the courts of public opinion and law, and, ultimately, how thoughtful preparation leads to peace and clarity in the middle of the storm.

    Overcoming our Tech Addiction: Darren Whitehead & Chris Kasper | Episode 393

    Let's be honest: teenagers aren't the only ones glued to their phones. Most of us live in a state of constant hyper-connectivity, where being "always on" is culturally rewarded but spiritually draining. We long for deep, authentic relationships, yet we struggle to break free from the digital habits holding us back. In this session, Chris Kasper (founder of Techless) and Darren Whitehead (pastor and author of The Digital Fast) sit down for a candid conversation on what it takes to rescue our time, our focus, and our souls from the digital noise.

    Sexual Identity & Gen Z: Mo Isom Aiken & Elizabeth Woning | Episode 392

    Gen Z is navigating a cultural conversation around sexuality that is louder and more pervasive than anything previous generations experienced. It is actively forming their identities—but where is the Church in this discussion? Instead of avoiding the awkward or uncomfortable, this interactive Q&A steps directly into the tension. We are bypassing the usual talking points to address the raw questions young adults are actually asking about identity, relationships, faith, and cultural pressure.
