    Formed Not Conformed: Understanding Genesis, AI, and the Pursuit of God’s Truth

    What’s shaping you—God’s truth or the world’s counterfeits? In this episode, we launch the Formed Not Conformed MasterClass series with a deep dive into Genesis 3, unpacking the serpent’s deception, humanity’s hunger for godlike knowledge, and the modern parallels found in artificial intelligence. Together, we explore why knowledge without trust leads to emptiness, how AI can mirror the ancient temptation to replace God, and why spiritual formation through Scripture, prayer, confession, and dependence on Christ remains the only path to life and freedom.

    1 Peter and Marriage: Suffering, Submission, and the Witness of Our Relationships

    What does 1 Peter really teach about marriage, suffering, and submission—and why does it matter for everyday life? In this episode, the conversation slows down to place Peter’s household instructions in their first-century Roman context, revealing how Scripture elevates dignity, calls husbands to understanding and honor, and forms marriages into a visible gospel witness. Rather than starting with modern assumptions, listeners are challenged to begin with the Word of God and see how Christ’s example of humble strength reshapes relationships, authority, and the way believers live before a watching world.

    What do you do when life feels unfair, painful, or completely out of your control?

From submission that isn’t weakness, to suffering that becomes a witness, this conversation points us to Christ, our Shepherd and Overseer, who suffered for us and shows us how to endure with faithfulness and hope.
