In this episode, we dive into biblical stewardship—what it means, why it matters, and how it challenges the way we think about ownership. If God owns everything and is over everything, that means our time, talents, gifts, money, resources, (essentially everything) is his. Therefore, we are responsible to entrust those things to him to use for his purpose.

In this episode, we seek to show how as beautiful as general revelation truly is, it was never going to be enough. We needed God to specially reveal himself, and now that he has revealed himself primarily in Christ, we look to Christ and his word to define all things for us in thought and life.

This episode seeks to help the Christian suffer well with hope and confidence in God’s blessing. We often think of Job as the sufferer, but his story begins and ends with blessing. Even through the mess of the middle of his life, God’s blessings prevail. This shows us that we too can believe in God’s promises of blessing even through the valleys, however long they may last.
