Episode 201: Oyster Crackers, Ancient Aliens, and the Search for Truth 27.01.2026

What do oyster crackers, ancient aliens, Bigfoot, and the resurrection of Jesus all have in common? Apparently…  truth . In Episode 201 of  Chasing the Rabbit , the crew starts off exactly where you’d expect—cold weather, soup debates, and a surprisingly passionate discussion about oyster crackers (or are they  oysterettes ?). From there, the conversation takes a few classic rabbit trails through...

200 Rabbits Trails Later: Truth, Waffles, and Why Boundaries Matter 20.01.2026

We made it—200 episodes of Chasing the Rabbit—and we’re celebrating the only way we know how: laughter, stories, sweets, and a deep dive into biblical truth.

From unexpected listener fee...

Episode 199: Fresh Eyes for a New Year 06.01.2026

As we kick off the first  Chasing the Rabbit  episode of 2026, all five pastors gather for a wide-ranging, honest, and often hilarious conversation about seeing life—and faith—with fresh eyes.

We talk about ho...

Episode 195: Christmas Accommodations, Waffle House, and How to Bible 09.12.2025

In this week’s episode of Chasing the Rabbit , the team kicks things off with Christmas stories, family traditions, and even a few Waffle House memories as they talk about the funny “accommodations” families make during the holidays. Then we shift gears into something that matters deeply for every believer and every family: how to get into the Bible with confidence. Eric and Jeremy recap their rec...

Episode 194: The Words of the Year We Didn’t Ask For (and the Ministry We All Have) 02.12.2025

The team kicks off December with the Oxford Word of the Year — “rage bait” — and it only gets sillier from there as “aura farming,” churro hacks, and 90’s one-hit wonders make their way into the conversation. But underneath the laughter is a meaningful reminder from Colossians 4:17: every believer has a ministry from the Lord, and faithfulness matters more than fame. Join Brooks, Jeremy, Eric, Ada...

Episode 193: A Thanksgiving Slow-mo Special (with Turkey, Traditions & Turducken) 25.11.2025

Episode 192: Stragglers, Limpers, and Christmas Cheer 18.11.2025

It’s classic CTR chaos in the best way...
