Navigating individuals who have become martyrs based on past injustices--real or perceived--is becoming a touchy subject. In this episode, unscripted and conversational, the topic is addressed. Patterns emerge that involve victimhood, cognitive dissonance, self-professed martyrdom, echo chambers, and the progressive stages that lead to a spirit (not an act) of rebellion. 

What helps us develop the meekness that God desires? In this episode, we examine a powerful way to comprehend the answer to this question.

Very few take the time to slow down and read the text of scripture with imposing past lessons, ideas, or bias upon the text. In this series, Pastor Tim Hadden takes us through a journey that seeks to decode the book of Genesis in a way that will invite each listener to go back and read the book all over again. Having studied the book of Genesis more than any other book in the Bible, Pastor Hadden wishes to provoke each listener--sometimes challenge them--to take another look at certain facets of the stories we often think we know so well. Talking snakes? Being alone but looking for a helpmeet among the animals? Man "squeezed" into shape like a potter but woman "built?" How do all these things play into the story of Genesis? Listen to find out!

How are we to respond in the present time that we are living?

This podcast episode examines our current response and conversations in a secular world that is becoming increasingly anti-God.

We ask a very challenging question as we dive into topics that have cultural significance; is there a place at the table for truth to be spoken without fear or reprisal or fallout? 2020 has launched us into many conversations that have led to nothing short of virtue signaling and/or pandering. They have been seen as mitigated examples of safe conversation followed with zero action. What are we doing to provide a biblical framework to these cultural issues among our young people and in our church communities? Let's talk about it...
