CONVERSATIONS - Forever Young

Every new generation has to face challenges and technologies that are unique to their own context and time. 'Whilst those challenges' may be specific to 'that generation', inevitably, every single one of us will journey the tough road from teenager to adult. In this episode, we sit down with Micah and Lizzie, from Riverview Youth, to discuss being young and growing up.

CONVERSATIONS - Justice and Judgement w/ Richard Jenson

There is a common concern for justice in our world. For us to achieve this justice, however, we must first understand how God views it and the alternative visions of justice offered by the world around us. On today’s episode, we’re joined by Crown Prosecutor and Jesus-follower Richard Jenson, as we discuss justice, mercy and our unique part in the story of God.

SUNDAY BEST - What Did You Come Out To See w/ Clare Gageler

Everyone has questions and doubts about Jesus. He has both answers, and questions, for us. Encounters with Jesus are meant to change and define us for the best, so how do you encounter Jesus when you can’t get past your doubts about Him?

CONVERSATIONS - Cash and the Kingdom w/ Brian Harris

Money plays a significant role in our lives and Christians aren't exempt from the temptations of the 'root of all evil.' So why does Jesus talk about money so often and how does the Kingdom of God relate to our cash? Today we're joined by Friend of the Podcast, Brian Harris, as we explore the financial implications of faithfully following Jesus. 

SUNDAY BEST - Euangelion: The Way w/ Aash Parmar

SUNDAY BEST - Euangelion: The Kingdom w/ Ryan Gageler

The Good News of Jesus is “the Kingdom of God has come near”. Jesus invites us, to follow him, as he reigns as King and recreates and renews his people and the world. To live under the rule and reign of King Jesus requires both a dangerous declaration and a radical reorientation of our lives and priorities. In Christ, our life prayer is “your kingdom come, your will be done on Earth as it is in heaven.”

CONVERSATIONS - After Doubt w/ A.J. Swoboda

Is there a way to walk faithfully through doubt and come out the other side with a deeper love for Jesus, the church and its tradition? Can we question our faith without losing it? This week, we’re joined by A.J. Swoboda as we explore doubt, deconstruction and deep roots. A. J. Swoboda (PhD, University of Birmingham) is assistant professor of Bible, theology, and world Christianity at Bushnell University. He is the author of a number of books, including his latest book, After Doubt.

SUNDAY BEST - What Do You Believe About Him? w/ Ps. Ken Lee

For better or worse, our beliefs about objects, events, and particularly relationships, pre-determine the way we approach and interact with them. In today's message from our guest speaker, Ps. Ken Lee, we look at Mark 5 and how our beliefs about Jesus impact how we experience relationship with Him.

CONVERSATIONS - Conflict w/ Zac Gageler

The call to Christ is a call to community, and with community comes confrontation. As Jesus-followers, how do we handle conflict and disagreement in a healthy way? In this episode, we sit down with Zac Gageler and explore conflict, escapism, and the notion of ‘speaking the truth in love.’
