Beyond Sunday is a weekly podcast that explores issues of faith beyond Sunday morning.
Listeners of Beyond Sunday that love the show mention: faith, great.
Biblical literacy is declining—not just in broader culture, but even among faithful churchgoers. Has an overly seeker-sensitive approach weakened our discipleship? In this episode, we explore why deep engagement with Scripture matters and how churches can retrain their people to read, understand, and love the Bible. Plus, a surprising announcement: a “conservative, family-friendly” Super Bowl halftime alternative featuring Kid Rock is headed to Trinity Broadcast Network. We unpack why this is a bigger—and more troubling—deal than it might first appear. All that, and we reveal the new must-have item at every party. Articles we look at on the show: https://www.christianitytoday.com/2026/01/bible-reading-plan-literacy-jen-wilkin/ https://relevantmagazine.com/current/oped19/a-kid-rock-concert-is-airing-on-tbn-this-sunday-how-is-this-okay/
Our new Bible series this year focuses on passages of Scripture that can be difficult to navigate or know what to do with. This month, we take a closer look at Romans 13, examining how Paul understands the role of government and how Christians are called to approach faithfulness and obedience to the law. This passage has often been used to silence dissent—but is that truly Paul's intent, or is there a more faithful and nuanced way to read it? Here is an article we used to jump-start our conversation: https://www.christianitytoday.com/2026/01/christians-romans-13-ice-shooting-minneapolis/ Don't forget to subscribe, rate, and review the podcast and to share it with your friends, families, neighbors, and strangers!

We often feel pressure to be happy in faith… but what happens when we just aren't feeling it. Do we subconsciously expect that being a follower of Jesus will make us happy and how do we combat against that. All this and more!

We often get confused by what is spiritual growth or what is just self improvement, so we explore how we can better tell the difference between becoming a better you or becoming more like Jesus.

We started off the new year with a bang with an interview with Father Andrew, a Catholic priest who is trained to do exorcisms. We may not agree on every aspect of demons, possession, and spiritual warfare, but it was fascinating to hear his experience and perspective. We did have some technical difficulties so it might sound a little different, but thank you to BJ McGeever for working his magic to fix our audio.

Young men are angry… and now being drawn to conspiracy theories, antisemitism, and social outrage. They may be right to be angry, but they're seeing the wrong enemies out there. The Christmas season offers them and us a better story to align ourselves with and see the world through a healthier lens. Plus, frozen wives and more!

We take a look at ways church and culture blame women for society's problems. From Eve to modern sexual assault scandals, women have been cast aside or blamed for their existence. How do we break free from this cycle - it is complicated and difficult but necessary to find ways to see women as Jesus sees them. Plus, maybe the solution to life's problems is more batman.

These days, it can seem like everyone has a side hustle and if you don't, well then you're just lazy and don't try hard enough. But is that the right response for people of faith? Are we called to work harder? Grind more? And keep pushing in order to be “better Christians?” Or is there another way forward? Join the Beyond Sunday Team as they tackle this week's topic.

The Epstein Files, and all the drama that have surrounded them, have been rocking the political landscape of our culture. Unfortunately, the Christian Church is no stranger to these sort of scandals. This week, the Beyond Sunday Team reviews some work by Russell Moore outlining 7 ways he has watched churches deal with abuse. What can we learn from their experience? How are we seeing similar patterns at work now? And how can we do better as people of faith?

There is a new TikTok social experiment going around where a woman is calling churches pretending to have a hungry baby and asking for help. Many churches are failing her test to help… but is the test rigged? We examine the experiment, ask questions of how should churches respond and what is our willingness to risk being “scammed” to help others. more info on the social experiment here: https://www.newsweek.com/nikalie-monroe-church-call-experiment-starving-child-poverty-snap-benefits-11022815 Don't forget to subscribe, rate, and review the podcast and to share it with your friends, families, neighbors, and strangers!

“I'm still praying about that.” “I'm waiting to hear what God wants me to do?” Have you or a friend used these answers when putting off a difficult decision? Or maybe it was when you were faced with a path you didn't want to go down? Patrick and Pastor David take on the question of how we know we're trying to walk in faith and when we're trying to avoid a decision we don't want to make.
