Sibling Rivalry - Andrew & Peter

Sibling rivalry doesn’t always have to lead to conflict—in fact, it can be a powerful force for growth and inspiration. In this episode, we turn to two of the most iconic brothers in the New Testament: Andrew and Simon Peter. While both were deeply devoted followers of Jesus, their personalities, roles, and paths to faith diverged in fascinating ways. How did Andrew feel about his brother's rise to prominence as “the Rock” of the early church? What can their story tell us about ambition, humility, and the unique struggles of growing up in a sibling's shadow? We explore the lives of these remarkable brothers, the dynamic of rivalry balanced with support, and the ways they navigated their own roles within the early Christian movement. This episode will offer insights into both the challenges and blessings that come with sharing a spiritual journey with a sibling. Question for the show?

Sibling Rivalry - Cain & Abel

Sibling rivalry is as old as time, and unfortunately it can carry over into adulthood. No story captures its intensity quite like the tale of Cain and Abel. In this episode, we dive into one of history’s earliest and most dramatic sibling conflicts. Why did this rivalry between brothers turn so dark? What underlying emotions, desires, expectations and insecurities fueled their infamous feud?

Whether you’ve faced sibling tension or are simply intrigued by timeless stories of human nature, this episode offers a fascinating look at sibling rivalry and the complexities that come with family ties.
