The "Digging Deeper" series is category of episodes on CC Podcast: Conversations where CC Broadcast Radio Preacher, Tim Boettger, further discusses topics and ideas raised during his radio sermons, but in a conversational interview format. As you'll notice, the title of each episode mirrors the title of the radio sermon on the CC Broadcast that it corresponds with. It is our hope that these supplemental conversations will help listeners grow even deeper in their Christian faith and their understanding of God's Word than is possible by only listening to a sermon.Here are links to the two CC Broadcasts (audio) featuring the two parts of the message referenced in this conversation:Part 1: https://player.captivate.fm/episode/91f28ae4-616b-4e49-8211-b3286f4377b9/Part 2: https://player.captivate.fm/episode/be0b6a34-b3fa-4f93-b5b7-07d2286150da/Here is a link to the video of the same message, from Nazareth Church's website: https://vimeo.com/1129171125?fl=pl&fe=shHere's a link to the John Ortberg sermon, "It All Goes Back in the Box," which was referenced multiple times in this conversation: https://youtu.be/G9Y_gbrcz8w?si=ukFzBi5d05iF0yl7Here's a link to the CC Podcast: Conversations episode featuring Ron Gruber, which was referenced multiple times in this conversation: https://player.captivate.fm/episode/025ee88b-1897-48b6-a560-9d99e075e4c6/For more information about Christian Crusaders, the ministry under which CC Podcasts are produced: Conversations is produced, visit https://christiancrusaders.org.Also, check out our other podcasts:To listen to The CC Podcast: Daily Dose Devotions, where we're currently going through an overview of the Bible, click here: https://christiancrusaders.org/ccpod-daily-doseTo listen to our weekly radio broadcast, The CC Broadcast, which has aired since 1936, and which features a 30 minute worship service, including music and preaching, click here: https://christiancrusaders.org/the-cc-broadcastTo listen to Homer Larsen Live, an archive of Pastor Homer Larsen's sermons preached live at Nazareth Church, click here: https://christiancrusaders.org/homer-larsen-live (Pastor Larsen was radio preacher for CC for over 50 years, and also served as Senior Pastor at Nazareth -- many of his radio broadcasts, dating back to the early 2000s, are archived on The CC Broadcast, but this set of sermons are the ones he preached live from the pulpit.)Thanks to Terri, our intro/outro announcer!Music by Lesfm from Pixabay

In this episode, we explore the sweeping biblical theme of God's presence — from Eden to Immanuel. We talk about what it means to be created for life with God, how sin disrupts that relationship, and how the entire story of Scripture is God pursuing us to bring us back to Himself. Together we'll unpack why His presence is the core of our identity, our purpose, and our deepest fullness. If you've ever wondered what it really means to walk with God in daily life, this conversation invites you to rediscover the beauty of His nearness.

Discussion QuestionsSermon Overview Our hope for endless peace rests on a child who will reign forever.I. The future for God's people is a dawn that drives out darkness (vv. 1-3)II. This dawn will mean the end of enslaving enemies (vv. 4-5)III. God will make this endless peace through a child who will reign forever (vv. 6-7)Digging Deeper    Read Isaiah 9:1-71. “To be in darkness is to seem to be abandoned by God.” By a show of hands, have you ever or do you now feel this way? Share more if you're comfortable. 2. “The first coming of Jesus was the beginning of the end of the darkness of the world.” How have you experienced this line from the sermon? How has darkness begun to end? How is it still present? Think in terms of the world and your own life.3. Anticipating that Christ has come and is coming again should lead to hope and joy. How might we help one another be more intentional about giving thought to Christ's first and second coming?   4. Do you see spiritual enemies (like sin, demons, the fear of death) as your greatest enemies? Why or why not?5. How did Jesus' death on the cross defeat our spiritual enemies?6. Reread Isaiah 9:6, especially the end. Which of the four descriptors of Jesus catches your attention? Why?7. What is a takeaway (s) for us from the fact that roughly 700 years prior to the birth of Jesus, Isaiah so clearly and so specifically foretold his coming?8. Where do you long for peace in your life? With God? With yourself? With others? 9. There are many aspects to the peace Jesus came to bring for his people (e.g. - peace with God, peace among ourselves, peace within ourselves, etc.). Are there any aspects of the peace he brings that you have perhaps not appreciated as much as you should? Why might that be?  How might we grow in gratefulness for all that Christ came to do for us?    10. Read Isaiah 53:5 “But he was pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his wounds we are healed.”  How has Jesus brought us peace through his death?  How might we use this verse to share the gospel with someone this Advent season?   Prayer

Discussion QuestionsSermon Overview Those who enter the kingdom depend on Jesus completely and treasure him supremely.I. Who enters: those who depend on Jesus completely (vv. 15-17)II. Who enters: those who treasure Jesus supremely (vv. 18-30)III. How Jesus makes entry possible: suffering in our place (vv. 31-34)IV. How entry looks: dependent faith produces joyful following (vv. 35-43)Digging Deeper    Read Luke 18:15-431. Jesus exhorts us to receive the kingdom of God like a child, in complete dependence. How does this help us in entering his kingdom? 2. What's the opposite of being like a child in approaching God? How could/does this show up in your life?3. Wealth isn't evil, but it is a danger. How is wealth a powerful rival to God?4. Where do you struggle when thinking about money? Greed? Discontentment? Jealousy? Overreliance on it for security? What might you do or change to grow in this area?5. Those who follow Jesus give up much now, but also receive much now. If you follow Jesus, what good things have you already experienced because you are a part of God's kingdom now?6. It was asked in the sermon, “Do you see Jesus's love?” What does it mean to see His love, and how does it help us enter his kingdom?       7. The blind man at the end of the passage is a picture of the one who enters the kingdom. How do we live our lives marked by the kind of joyful following that the blind man exhibits upon being healed? 8. What is one specific thing that keeps you from entering the kingdom?

From a packed community event to an eye-opening reflection on gratitude, Pastors Bobby and Jeremy break down the moments that shaped this past week — and the impact they're already having.

“Suffering never has the final word; resurrection does.” This week, Nicole wraps our study of Daniel by tracing the shift from history to “end of the age” prophecy (Daniel 11:36–12:13). We explore the final clash between human arrogance and divine authority, the promise of resurrection, and how followers of Jesus live as citizens of an unshakable Kingdom right now—resisting “mini-empires” of self through humility, faith, and love. Practical reflection questions help listeners translate apocalyptic hope into everyday faithfulness. Main Takeaways History → Hope: Daniel 11:36 marks a move from historical prophecy to a future, ultimate confrontation—yet God remains sovereign. Resurrection is central: Daniel 12 promises awakening “to everlasting life,” anchoring Christian hope beyond present trials. Faithful now: Wisdom is measured in faithfulness and righteousness, not conquest; we resist empire by daily obedience, love, and trust in Christ. Hold mystery with humility: Scripture gives what we need to live faithfully today, even when some details remain unresolved. Bible Verse References: Daniel 11:36 — The willful king and human arrogance. Daniel 12:1–4 — Deliverance, resurrection, and wisdom that “shines.” Daniel 12:3 — Those who lead many to righteousness shine forever. Philippians 2:15 — Shine like stars. Hebrews 12:28 — Receiving a Kingdom that cannot be shaken. Matthew 11:28–30 — Jesus’ easy yoke. Next Steps: Subscribe and leave a review to help others find the show.

Discussion QuestionsSermon Overview Come to God, trusting not in yourself, but in Jesus. God's saving mercy and grace are only for those who know they don't deserve it.Digging Deeper    Read Luke 18:9-141. In our passage, the Pharisee comes to God trusting in himself (and how good he is). Where do we see this in the text?2. What are subtle or obvious ways we can trust ourselves instead of Jesus?3. “Whenever we feel God does not love us because we have failed, we have adopted the Pharisee's approach.” Do you experience this? If so, how can you respond to these feelings? How can we help each other?4. One of the ways Pharisee-like self-righteousness reveals itself is in a propensity to treat others with contempt (cf. v.9b). Reflect on some of the words (and tone) you have used with others around you in the past. Do you see any supporting evidence that you may have, at times, been guilty of treating others with contempt?  What heart-level attitudes might such words reveal? 5. How tempted are you to compare yourself with others to determine how good or bad you are? A lot? A little? Something else?6. What's the problem with assessing yourself based on comparison to others?7. How easy is it to view yourself like the tax collector, claiming no righteousness of your own?8. It was said in the sermon, “... we are all far more sinful than we think. And it is only when we grasp this that we can receive the good news.” What was meant by this?  Do you agree?       9. How might we use this parable (and the truths it teaches) to engage with unbelievers about the good news of the Gospel?   10. What one specific application from this passage might God want you to consider and take with you into the week ahead?  Please share. Prayer

“Every empire eventually turns inward—what’s built on pride always devours itself.” In Daniel 11, prophecy and history collide as Nicole Unice walks listeners through one of the most complex and detailed chapters in Scripture—a 400-year panorama of rising and falling empires from Persia to Greece to the early Seleucid rulers. This chapter exposes the fragile nature of human power and contrasts it with the unshakable Kingdom of God. Through vivid examples—from Alexander the Great to the tyrant Antiochus Epiphanes—Nicole shows how earthly empires mirror the human heart’s struggle for control, pride, and self-preservation. Yet amid corruption and chaos, God’s faithful people stand firm, reminding us that love, not violence or fear, is the true form of resistance in God’s Kingdom. Main Takeaways / Learning Points: History affirms prophecy: Daniel 11 accurately foreshadows 400 years of history between Persia and Greece, confirming that God’s Word aligns with historical reality. Empires mirror the human heart: Pride, control, greed, and fear—the same forces that shape nations—also war within individuals. Power corrupts when centered on self: The rise of rulers like Antiochus Epiphanes reminds us that when people worship power, they inevitably destroy what they seek to control. God preserves a faithful remnant: Even in the darkest eras, those “who know their God will stand firm and take action” (Daniel 11:32). Resistance in God’s Kingdom looks different: True strength shows up in humility, faithfulness, and love—not domination. Bible Verse References (linked) Daniel 11:2–4 — Prophecy of Persia and Greece. Daniel 11:21–23 — A contemptible ruler seizes power. Daniel 11:32–35 — The faithful resist corruption. 1 Chronicles 16:9 — God’s eyes search the earth to strengthen His people. Matthew 5:44 — Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you. Calls to Action (CTAs) Subscribe to How to Study the Bible with Nicole Unice for weekly studies.

While Cody is sitting in timeout, Jake and Brian discuss Jake's message on Ruth 2. They discuss how culture feeds us a picture of life we think is full, but how God's faithfulness leads us to the truly full life. 

Discussion QuestionsSermon Overview Jesus' sure and sudden return calls for wholehearted loyalty and persevering prayer.Digging Deeper    Read Luke 17:20-18:81. Did this sermon help you in your understanding of what the Kingdom of God is? How so? 2. How does Daniel 7:13-14 shed light on what Jesus meant when he spoke of “the kingdom of God” and “the Son of Man”?3. The coming of the Son of Man will be unmistakable to all (17:22-25). Why do you think Jesus wants his disciples (including us) to know this? What does this truth help guard against? 4. The coming of the Son of Man will be unexpected by many (17:26-30). In mercy, Jesus is warning his people, lest we be numbered among those who are not ready for his return. How can we help one another guard against complacency and against living with no sense of urgency (as those in Noah's and Lot's day did - until it was too late)? 5. The coming of the Son of Man will be for salvation and judgment (17:27, 29, 34-35). Apart from God's grace, we can be inclined to think that we're really not all that bad, and certainly not worthy of God's judgment. How might we use the truths taught in this passage to help unbelievers see both the sober reality of coming judgment and the salvation Christ offers?      6. One rightful response to what Jesus shows us in this passage about his return is to live with wholehearted loyalty to God. Is there a specific area of your life in which you are okay with something less than wholehearted loyalty to God? Please share. What would be a good next step toward change in this area? 7. Another rightful response in light of the second coming of the Son of Man is persevering prayer to God (18:1-8). Are there things you have prayed for, and yet God has not answered the way you hoped he would?  Have you found yourself tempted to give up praying, and “lose heart”?  Please share. 8. It was said in the sermon that “the key to not losing heart (in prayer) is the character of God.”  What aspects of God's character would you say are most important for you to be mindful of as you seek to persevere in prayer until the Son of Man comes again? 9. What might be some ways we can encourage one another to persevere in prayer until the Son of Man returns?  Prayer

In this episode of Digging Deeper, Pastors Mariah and Bobby wrap up Rise City Church's Holy Spirit series with a down-to-earth conversation about what it really means to live by the fruit of the Spirit.They talk about why it's not a buffet we get to pick from, how being rooted in God's love changes everything, and what it looks like to let the Holy Spirit shape real fruit in our lives.You'll also hear them unpack the difference between spiritual gifts and the fruit of the Spirit, and how community helps us grow stronger faith.If you've ever struggled with consistency, comparison, or staying anchored in your faith, this episode will encourage you to get rooted again and let God do the growing.Scripture References: Galatians 5:16–26, Luke 14, Ephesians 3

“Healthy theology affirms the spiritual realm without obsessing over it. Faith keeps us grounded when the unseen feels overwhelming.” In Daniel 10, the curtain between heaven and earth is pulled back, revealing an unseen world of spiritual activity. As Daniel receives a new vision and encounters a radiant messenger, we’re reminded that God’s purposes are unfolding even when we can’t see them. Nicole Unice explores what Scripture teaches about the spiritual realm—what’s revealed, what’s mysterious, and how believers can live anchored in confidence rather than fear. She balances two extremes: over-focusing on spiritual warfare or dismissing it altogether. The episode draws out timeless truths about prayer, unseen realities, and the sovereignty of God that will carry into Daniel 11 and 12. Main Takeaways There is an unseen realm: Both Old and New Testaments affirm that invisible realities exist (see Ephesians 6:12, Colossians 1:16, Hebrews 1:14). God hears our prayers—even when we can’t see results. The angel tells Daniel his prayer was heard immediately, though the answer was delayed by spiritual resistance (Daniel 10:12–13). Healthy theology stays balanced. We recognize the spiritual realm without obsessing over it. Faith, prayer, and Scripture keep us grounded. Revelation points to the Revealer. The focus is not on angels or visions but on the God who reveals Himself and strengthens His people. Trust closes the gap between prayer and response. Faith bridges the unseen—God’s timing and sovereignty are trustworthy even when unseen battles rage. Bible Verse References: Daniel 10:12–13 — God hears Daniel’s prayer. Ephesians 6:12 — Our struggle is not against flesh and blood. Hebrews 1:14 — Angels are ministering spirits sent to serve believers. Colossians 1:16 — All things, visible and invisible, are created through Christ. Psalm 139:16 — All our days are written in God’s book.

We cover the sermon and story of Ruth chapter 1. 

Discussion QuestionsSermon Overview The whole Christian life is enabled by faith in Christ.Digging Deeper    Read Luke 17:1-191. Faith in Christ gives us a sort of superpower to do things that are really hard (some would say impossible). From the passage or the sermon, what kinds of things does faith enable?2. After all the hard things Jesus has been calling the disciples to, they feel that they need an increase of faith (vs. 5). Why do you think they ask for more faith, instead of more of something else?3. What is or may be an area you have freedom to pursue that you intentionally don't because you want the spiritual good of someone weaker in the faith?4. Christians are commanded to reconcile wrongs with others. What makes it difficult to be reconciled with someone who has wronged us (or make amends to someone whom we have wronged)?5. Where do you need to go and be reconciled? Consider both relationships in which you need to forgive, and relationships in which you need forgiveness.6. Have you ever experienced a surprising ability to serve God (through increased grace for others, stamina in ministry, resistance to sin, etc.)? Where did this come from, according to Luke 17? 7. In the sermon, it was said that faith enables us to receive God's mercy. Is it ever hard for you to receive mercy from others? What about from God? 8. Where in your life do you need to have faith in God right now and ask him to move? Do you trust Him to do what you're asking? Be specific. Prayer

Join us as we dig deeper into last Sunday's sermon from Pastor Marcus Lane "Rebuilding" and hear from Amy Duncan on why she chose "Hymn of Heaven" for worship on Sunday.   Digging Deeper Questions: When you think about what the church is called to build, what comes to mind? Is your picture of what we are called to build consistent with what God calls us to build?   Where do you see misaligned priorities at work in your own life and in the world around you?   How does the calling to "consider your ways" invite you to rediscover God's priorities for your life as his child?     Intro/Outro Song: "Only One" Nate Zuellig ULC Artist In Residence   "Hymn of Heaven" Phil Wickham CCLI Song # 7168994   CCLI License # 11254293

Water is life—especially in the Oklahoma Panhandle. In this episode, the Red Dirt Agronomy team welcomes Dr. Sumit Sharma, OSU Extension's irrigation specialist, for a wide-ranging discussion on how producers can stretch every drop. From pre-watering to planting decisions, Sharma explains how irrigation science is helping producers navigate declining well capacities and unpredictable weather while maintaining strong yields.The conversation also explores cotton and corn management, growing degree days, and the future of sustainable production in Oklahoma's High Plains. With insights on new technologies, the Master Irrigators program, and the resilience of prairie systems, this episode offers both practical advice and a hopeful look at how farmers can adapt without giving up on the land they love.10 TakeawaysEfficient irrigation is key to sustaining Oklahoma Panhandle agriculture as wells decline.Cotton can thrive with as little as 14 inches of irrigation when managed correctly.Elevation impacts growing degree days, influencing which crops succeed.Pre-watering is vital for establishing crops and managing weeds in sandy soils.Short-maturity cotton varieties may improve harvest success before early freezes.Data and technology (like soil moisture sensors) are transforming irrigation decisions.Regenerative ag and cover crops are helping improve soil health under limited irrigation.Pasture restoration is a long-term solution for lands losing water capacity.The Master Irrigators Program offers farmers education, audits, and financial incentives to conserve water.The Panhandle's resilience—both ecological and cultural—shows that adaptation is possible even in drought-prone areas.Timestamped Rundown00:00–01:00 – Dave Deken opens Episode 426; sets up discussion on irrigation and underground water.01:00–03:00 – Introductions: Dr. Brian Arnall, Dr. Josh Lofton, Dr. Raedan Sharry; light humor about breakfast and fieldwork.03:30–05:00 – Dr. Sharma joins; recap of his background and move from the Panhandle to Stillwater.05:00–07:00 – Overview of ongoing research: growing corn with limited water, regenerative agriculture, and cotton-water studies.07:00–10:00 – Explanation of growing degree days (GDDs) and how elevation affects crop heat units in Oklahoma.10:00–13:00 – Cotton challenges in high elevation areas; water use comparisons between cotton and corn.13:00–17:00 – Discussion on cotton irrigation timing—why early stress can help root growth.17:00–21:00 – Cotton varieties (Phytogen 205 vs. 411); balancing short vs. long maturity crops.21:00–25:00 – GDD model reliability questioned; differences between Panhandle and southern climates.25:00–29:00 – Deep dive on “pre-watering” in the Panhandle: how much, why, and when.29:00–32:00 – Millet research and unexpected challenges (birds, pigweed, herbicide limits).32:00–35:00 – Discussion on drought, soil loss, and reestablishing pasture for sustainability.35:00–39:00 – Dr. Sharma details the Master Irrigators Program: training, incentives, and upcoming sessions in Altus.39:00–40:30 – Closing remarks and links to RedDirtAgronomy.com.

As we recap the series we recap our thoughts into new thoughts. 

Discussion QuestionsSermon Overview Because death reverses the wrongs of life, the living should hear God now and respond.Digging Deeper    Read Luke 16:19-311. Money is a recurring theme in Luke 16. What does Jesus say about money? Why do you think he talks about it so much?2. When you think about someone spending an eternity without God, do you struggle with whether it is just? Why, or why not?3. Real people go to a real hell. What difference should this reality make in our lives now?4. It can be easy to feel like we have to get it all right in this life so we don't end up like the rich man in the parable. What helps us avoid thinking we can earn our way to heaven due to a fear of hell?5. The great news of the gospel is that if we are in Christ, we are beneficiaries of a second reversal, greater than that of death. What was that reversal, and what does it mean for believers?6. What brokenness in our world now might we joyfully anticipate being reversed in eternity later?7. How do you do justice and show mercy in your everyday life? If you struggle with this, how can you grow in showing mercy? 8. In the sermon, we heard that part of responding to the reversal that is death is “to be generous and prepare.” What are some needs around us that we can anticipate and meet as a community? 9. How do we share this truth of the gospel - this reversal of right and wrong - to someone who doesn't believe there is anything other than this life?Prayer

Join us as we dig deeper into last Sunday's sermon from Pastor Marcus Lane "Has No One Condemned You?" and hear from Amy Duncan on why she chose "Living Hope" for worship on Sunday. Digging Deeper Questions: Are there particular behaviors that you notice you are quick to condemn when you see them in others? How might Jesus' response to the woman caught in adultery help you be more gracious toward those behaviors? Where do you most see a "high anthropology" at work in our culture? In the church? In your heart? How might recognition of our weaknesses lead us to more graciousness toward others? How does Jesus' response to this woman shape how you approach God in your own sins and failures?

Discussion QuestionsSermon Overview Pursue a God-pleasing righteousness from the heart, including in your marriageI. The righteousness God seeks is from the heart (vv. 14-15)II. The kingdom Jesus brings fulfills the law but does not relax righteousness (vv. 16-17)III. God's enduring desire for righteousness is shown in his enduring instruction about marriage (v. 18)Digging Deeper    Read Luke 16:14-181. In the sermon, righteousness is “being right, doing right, before God.” The righteousness God is seeking is righteousness from the heart. What's the difference between being righteous just on the outside (like the Pharisees) and being righteous from the heart?2. Have you ever found yourself resisting a teaching in the Bible, only to later realize (or experience a sense of conviction from the Holy Spirit) that it is a truth that was pressing on something you were loving as a rival to God?  Please share.3. If you were to be honest, is there an area of your life where you are settling for outward conformity (a merely external righteousness)?  What might be a good step toward pursuing change in this area of your life?4. After hearing this sermon, how might you respond to someone who thinks they can live however they want because Jesus counts us as righteous through trust in him?5. Jesus didn't come to make righteousness unnecessary, but rather to make it possible.  What does that mean?  Do you find this truth encouraging?  How so? MARRIAGEIn our culture, the starting point for thinking about marriage is often self-fulfillment: my wants, my needs, my goals. It's easy to miss God's design for marriage, which is a covenant to which we must be faithful, a union that is only broken with great trauma, and a picture of God's love and faithfulness. It is, therefore, not surprising that so many fail to see the grievousness of divorce as God does. 6. How can we speak and act about marriage so that those around us are pointed toward God's good design of marriage?7. This passage urges us to “Pursue a God-pleasing righteousness from the heart, including in (our) marriages.”  If you're married, what would this practically look like?8. Given your marital situation and background, what was one takeaway from this sermon God might want you to remember in the days ahead? Prayer
