You've left Egypt… but why does life still feel like a battlefield?In this episode, we explore what it means to live in the tension between deliverance and discipleship. Salvation gets us out of bondage, but that's only the beginning. We still have strongholds to break and wilderness seasons to endure.We'll talk about the danger of getting stuck in the in-between—no longer slaves, but not yet free—and why community, vulnerability, and spiritual formation are essential for walking in the freedom Jesus offers. This is Part 1 of our "Find Freedom" series, and we're not pulling any punches.

We often try to break God down into digestible percentages. Part love, part wrath, part justice, part mercy. But, truthfully, God isn't divided at all. In this episode, we explore the danger of reducing God to a pie chart of attributes and instead look at how Scripture presents a God who is fully holy, fully loving, fully just—all at the same time.We'll wrestle with common theological tensions, like how a good God can express anger or judgment, and why understanding His wholeness is essential for forming a resilient faith. This conversation takes us from Cain and Abel's offerings to Eden's exile, through Romans 1 and all the way to the cross—where God's wrath and mercy met in perfect harmony.If you've ever struggled with the idea of “Old Testament God” vs. “New Testament Jesus,” or found yourself asking how love and justice can coexist, this one's for you.Let me know if you want this adapted for Apple Podcasts or your website too!

This week, we wrap up Kingdom Builders by confronting the tension between self and surrender. We unpack what it means to give our firstfruits—not just financially, but through our time, talent, and trust. What does it really mean to put the Kingdom before ourselves? We revisit Cain and Abel, challenge cultural comfort, and wrestle with whether obedience without reward is still worth it. Spoiler: it is.

This week, we reflect on the ripple effects of Charlie Kirk's martyrdom and the sense that something is shifting—both in our church and across the country. We've seen men step into spiritual authority, young people lean into truth, and a growing hunger for revival that doesn't look like hype, but holiness.We talk about what revival really is—not just emotionally charged moments, but long obedience in the same direction. We wrestle with how forgiveness, stewardship, and sacrifice aren't side topics—they're Kingdom investments that echo into eternity.We also unpack the Kingdom Investment Calculator—a practical and theological lens for how we give our time, talent, and tithe, even when we don't see immediate return.

In the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination, this episode dives into the weighty themes of martyrdom, spiritual warfare, and kingdom legacy. The hosts reflect on Charlie's bold faith, his commitment to truth in the public square, and how his death is already sparking gospel conversations and revival across the world. They explore what it means to live with a “peek into glory,” to be righteously defiant like Daniel and the apostles, and to not shrink back in fear. The episode also transitions into a practical challenge - how believers can steward their time, talent, and tithe to build God's Kingdom here and now, even in the midst of darkness. With real stories, honest struggles, and tangible next steps, this conversation calls listeners to live boldly, give sacrificially, and trust deeply in God's sovereignty even when we don't understand.

God has gifted each of us more than just grace, but abilities and special jobs to do with those abilities during our time on earth. Today, we talk about how we as Americans can bristle at the idea of being stewards, not owners, of our blessings and our timidity in investing them.

In Matthew 25, Jesus presented the parable of a master entrusting treasure to servants while he goes away. Some of these servants passed this test, and some failed.

From the garden to the temptation of Jesus, to Phillipi, to this very day, the enemy's lies have not gotten more creative. Like Paul, we need to learn how to hear them, and how to drown them out with the truth.

In our final sermon of the Mysteries Unveiled series, Pastor Jon pulls back the curtain on the oracle woman from Phillipi in Acts 16. Discovering what was going on behind the scenes, Jon asks us to search our current circumstances and see if we are struggling against the same forces, and perhaps need to take action against them.

One resounding takeaway from Pastor Galen's message this week was that just as Erastus, the Ephesian treasurer, can use his time, treasure and talent to further the gospel, so can each of us today. But what does that look like?

The Ephesian city treasurer mentioned several times in Paul's letters may have been brought to life through following archeological clues, and what we discover is a person worthy of emulation. In our everyday worries, we forget our position of relative privilege and plenty, of the ways God has equipped us and the opportunities He sets before us. Like Erastus, we are called to grab these with both hands to further the Gospel to the greater glory of God.NOTE: Apologies for the tardiness uploading this episode, as we were experiencing difficulties with the podcast's host site.

This week's sermon centered upon the way God providentially prepares the way for those who are carrying out His plan on earth. In the Companion Podcast, we discuss the ways in which that same providence is active and visible today and explore how we might discover the purpose God has for each of us right now.

Pastor Jon Simpson examines the conditions of the first-century Roman Empire, and how it was the perfect stage for the entry of Jesus and the Gospel. God is intentional in how He works, and seeing that reminds us He is intentional with us, as well, working all things toward His final goal in the fullness of time.

There's a war raging in the spiritual realm, a war Jesus will ultimately win. We are not mere spectators, but combatants in need of defending ourselves. The battle isn't won by our strength, but our efforts are required. Jesus wants fruit! So we must know and wear our armor against the enemy, know and rightly wield our weapons. But first, we must know WHO our enemy is.

Remembering the Jesus is and will be victorious in the battle between good and evil is a fact that comforts those who fight on His side. Even more uplifting is the knoweldge that not only will Jesus be triumphant, but we are the spoils, the objects that He "wins" in His victory.

Pastor Jon "digs up" a lot of reasons why not only should we trust what the Bible says is true, but we should be confident that the evidence of archeology supports it.

How can we trust a book that's thousands of years old? What about the "big conspiracy" behind how the Bible was formed? What's with all the different versions and which one is right? Is the King James Bible special?Pastor Jon and Kasey Orr dive deeper into these questions and more brought about when the worldly try to undermine the Bible, God's personal communication to us.

Heavenly rewards—are they biblical motivation or just bad theology? In this episode, we dive into a topic many churches avoid: the difference between salvation and rewards, how works fit into the Christian life, and what it really means to serve with the right heart.
