The Here & Now

In this episode of Here & Now , we talk about why hurry may be one of the greatest threats to our spiritual and emotional health. What did Jesus mean when He said His yoke is easy and His burden is light? Why do we run to distractions instead of true rest? And what would it look like to actually slow down and live an unhurried life? We also dive into the story of Mary and Martha, escapism thro...

Following Jesus isn’t just a one-time decision… it’s a daily surrender. And if we’re being honest — that’s not always easy. In this episode of Here & Now , we talk about why following Jesus can feel so difficult, even when we know it’s right. From denying ourselves to trusting God’s timing, there’s a real tension between our will and His — and we all feel it. Jesus never promised an easy life....

Why should anyone trust Christianity when Christians mess it up so badly? And is church even necessary anymore?

In this episode, we try something a little different and dive directly into a passage of Scripture together. We open Acts 17 and explore Paul’s time in Athens—what he noticed, what troubled him, and how he chose to engage a culture filled with different beliefs and idols. Instead of beginning with accusation, Paul starts with observation and curiosity. He listens, understands the worldview around...

Prayer is something most of us believe in… but struggle to practice. In this episode, we talk honestly about why prayer feels hard — distractions, busyness, feeling spiritually unqualified — and how we can move from occasional prayers to intentional, daily rhythms. We explore how Jesus modeled prayer not as performance, but as relationship. Simple. Honest. Consistent. From pouring out our hearts w...

As the year comes to a close, we slow down to reflect, remember, and look ahead.

As we get older, Christmas changes—and so do we. In this episode, we talk about what it means to both grow up and grow into Christmas: how the season shifts from childhood excitement to something deeper, more reflective, and sometimes more complicated. We kick things off with a Christmas outfit “Make Me Laugh” segment and then dive into the questions that shape how we experience the holiday now. W...

In this episode, we talk about gratitude in a way that actually feels real. Not the cheesy holiday version—real, everyday gratitude that wrestles with pain, faith, frustration, and hope. We walk through questions about how thankfulness shapes our relationship with God, how it forms our character, and why Scripture calls us to “give thanks in all circumstances.” We also get practical about habits t...
