    Justice or Just Us?

    In this episode, we're digging into what biblical justice actually means—and how it should shape the way we live, love, and lead in today’s world. We talk through the differences between Old Testament and New Testament justice, how it stacks up against modern ideas of social justice, and why justice without mercy misses the heart of God.

    Love: It's in Season - Part 2

    Love is a word we use all the time, but do we really understand what it means—especially when it comes to God’s love? In this episode, we’ll explore the different types of love, from friendship to family to sacrificial love, and what scripture says about each. We’ll also tackle the tough question: If God loves us, why does life sometimes feel so unfair? When prayers go unanswered or struggles persist, it’s easy to doubt His love. But what if His love is deeper than just giving us what we want? Join us as we wrestle with these questions and find reassurance in a love that never fails, even when life doesn’t go as planned.
