Philip and Kevin are back again this week to unpack Kevin's sermon on Christian attention, discussing how we can find a healthier balance of media input in an age of overwhelming information.
This week, Philip expands on a few points from his Sunday sermon on Philippians 4:6-7 and he and Kevin discuss anxiety and how we can view modern wisdom and remedies through a biblical lens.
Philip takes the reins as our host this week and Robin helps outline the difference between the boldness and the agreeability that we are called to exhibit as we continue to stand firm and pursue Christ alongside one another.
This week, Robin shares some thoughts on the book of Philippians as a whole, a helpful approach to intergenerational discipleship, and his summer reading recommendations.
Todd is back once again this week to give us some more running analogies and other thoughts that didn't make it into his sermon on Sunday.
Todd joins us this week to introduce us to Local Missions, our youth ministry's annual local outreach program, and tells us how we can support their efforts this summer.
This week we're joined by Kevin as we discuss Paul's intense language in this week's passage, the Five Solas of the Reformation, pursuing joy in the Lord, and some examples of self-righteousness that we all might struggle with today.
This week, Kevin expands on some key points from his Mother’s Day sermon, addressing the guilt and condemnation parents may feel when reflecting on their parenting. He also offers practical suggestions for parents who want to read and memorize Scripture more with their children.
Robin tells us about his experience interacting with the passage in preparation for his latest sermon, unpacks the term "frowning providence" from the poem he quoted, and clarifies what Paul is saying about anxiety in Philippians.
Robin provides some more context for the stories he shared with us on Sunday and clarifies the difference between faithfulness and fruitfulness in sharing the Gospel.
This week we are joined by the 1999 Frederick Douglas High School SGA President, Kevin Rogers to talk about his Easter Sunday sermon, The pagan traditions that parallel Easter, and our union with Christ. Warning: this episode might be a little inside baseball...
Robin joins us this week and encourages us to reflect anew on the weight of our sins and the greatness of God's grace when we think of Christ's dying in our place. He also explains the justice of Christ's death and shares his thoughts on a few different theological interpretations of the Atonement.
After a brief overview of the "In Our Place" series we started on Sunday, Kevin elaborates on the theology of the priesthood of Christ, the implications of the priesthood of all believers, and the enigma that is Melchizedek.
Kevin revisits his driving metaphor from Sunday's sermon, further explaining what it means for us to take hold of the means of grace we've been given and put them to work. And after encouraging a patient and methodical approach to Christian growth, he addresses the difference between healthy venting and unhealthy grumbling.
Jose joins us this week to answer questions from the congregation, highlighting ways we can all grow in humility. He also compares Paul’s call for us to “count others more significant than yourselves” to the contrasting message prevalent in today’s culture.
Accompanied by several book recommendations, Robin covers the points that didn’t make the cut for his Sunday sermon, along with some insights on sermon application. He also "nerds out" about grammar and recites some scripture in Hebrew for us.
Kevin further explains Paul's phrase, "let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel." We also discuss the line between fear and wisdom in the midst of opposition, Kevin's thoughts on Christian media overload, and how we can process past church splits both as individuals and as a church.
