This episode was recorded live in front of students at Hillcrest Academy in Kalona, Iowa, using questions submitted directly by students. Pastor Don addresses foundational issues many Christians struggle to explain clearly: why prayer matters if God already knows the outcome, how free will works alongside divine foreknowledge, why suffering is unevenly distributed, what Revelation is actually describing, and how baptism functions as identity and authority rather than mere ritual. Rather than avoiding tension, this conversation leans into it—offering biblical reasoning, scriptural grounding, and practical clarity for listeners who want to think carefully about what they believe and why.

Reformed theology has become increasingly influential among younger Christians—but many still struggle to understand what it actually teaches and whether it reflects Scripture faithfully. In this episode, Rowan Miller and Pastor Don Patterson are joined by college senior Noah Miller to examine the Calvinist and Arminian perspectives on salvation. The conversation unpacks the TULIP framework, discusses preaching influences like Tim Keller and John Piper, and explores difficult questions surrounding election, atonement, assurance, and human responsibility. Along the way, the group reflects on mentorship, accountability, and how theological convictions shape real-world faith—especially during major life transitions like college and early adulthood. This episode is designed for listeners who want clarity, not slogans—and who are willing to think carefully about what they believe and why.

Who are you becoming—and what role do faith and finances play in shaping that story? In this episode, Rowan Miller and Pastor Don Patterson reflect on Scripture, identity, and the everyday realities of money, work, and family life. With humor, honesty, and pastoral insight, they explore what the Bible teaches about debt, generosity, and trusting God in practical decisions—from buying a home to raising children. Personal stories, biblical reflection, and thoughtful theology come together as they consider how Jesus' words guide not just belief, but priorities, character, and purpose.

Join hosts Don Patterson and Rowan Miller on Relish as they explore what it means to trust God, accept a calling, and live out faith in everyday life. In this episode they discuss why many churches meet on Sunday mornings, the biblical roots of worship timing, and contemporary approaches churches use to reach visitors and form deeper discipleship rhythms. Don and Rowan dig into Scripture—Acts 1 and Philippians 2—to reflect on Jesus' humanity and divinity, the incarnation, and how Christ's humility models Christian service. Through personal stories, the hosts share moments when they trusted God: stepping into podcasting, accepting unexpected pastoral roles at Kelowna Mennonite, and stretching into mission work and public speaking. The conversation turns practical and pastoral: the importance of saying yes to God's nudges, finding mentors, and how giftedness and God's equipping often unfold over time. They also address the consequences of denying a call, the need to confess and move forward, and the joy and growth that come from obedience. Listeners will also hear a sober reminder about global church challenges—leadership shortages and persecution, with a spotlight on ministry work in Nigeria and the Anabaptist Peace Center—and an invitation to support leaders and ministries in need. Whether you're discerning a call, leading a congregation, or simply curious about Christian vocation, this episode offers scripture-rich reflection, real-life testimony, and encouragement to say yes to where God is leading.

Relish pleasing or zestful flavor — a quantity just sufficient to flavor to be pleased or gratified by enjoy. Welcome back to another episode of Relish. Host Rowan Miller is joined by Pastor Don Patterson for a warm, conversational look at spiritual life, memory, and how faith shapes what we do. We begin with a personal chat about ways of reading the Bible: community reading plans, working through devotionals, and how approaches change over time. Rowan and Don compare starting points (why beginning at Genesis can feel strange for new readers and why starting in John or using a devotional is often helpful) and reflect on how regular Bible reading has grown in their own lives. The main focus is the Fruit of the Spirit from Galatians 5:22 — love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith (faithfulness), gentleness, and self-control — with a deep dive into faith itself. Don highlights the Greek nuance (the list includes distinct Greek words, and the entry translated as “faithfulness” is the word for faith) and turns to Hebrews 11 to let Scripture define faith: "being sure of what you hope for and certain of what you do not see." The hosts walk through Hebrews 11 examples — Abel, Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Joseph, Moses — and draw out what each life demonstrates about faith in action. Key highlights include how faith moves people to act beyond reason: Noah building an ark for a coming flood he'd never seen, Abraham leaving his homeland at God's call, and believers today stepping into new ministries or life-change despite uncertainty and possible ridicule. The conversation connects these biblical examples to practical hopes — renewal in local communities, fresh works of the Spirit, lives being changed, and the way transformed people can inspire others. Rowan and Don also reflect on generational dynamics, mentorship, and the joy of sharing faith stories that spark curiosity and renewal. Listeners are invited to share the episode and become part of the ministry's aim: to help one another grow deeper in knowing God and responding to His call.

In this episode of Relish, hosts Rowan Miller and Don Patterson open with a lighthearted conversation about favorite Bible characters — with Joseph and his coat of many colors serving as a springboard to discuss forgiveness and family dynamics. From there they move into a deeper biblical and historical conversation about the differences between the Old and New Testaments, and what those differences mean for understanding God's character and the person of Jesus. The hosts explain how the Old Testament sets the stage with numerous messianic prophecies and how the New Testament culminates that story in Christ. They emphasize that God's character does not change between Testaments, but that Jesus brings the Old Testament teachings into an intimate, first-person relationship (highlighted by passages such as John 13 and John 15). The episode covers the approximately 400-year period between Malachi and the first Gospel writer, describing it as a time of prophetic silence that prepared Israel for the coming of Christ. Roan and Don discuss extra-biblical writings from that era (including references to the apocryphal Book of Enoch and recommendations for Michael Heiser's scholarship) and note how Roman infrastructure, language, and reach helped Christianity spread rapidly once it began. Practical pastoral concerns are also addressed: what it means to "speak the truth in love" (Ephesians 4), the necessity of deep relationships to make corrective truth meaningful, and the role of church leaders in guiding those conversations. The hosts use real-life anecdotes and pastoral illustrations to show how truth-telling requires both courage and care. They also tackle the harder topic of sin and discipline, using the Old Testament story of Achan to illustrate God's decisive response to disobedience and to argue for the continuing need to confront sin in the church. Personal stories about parental discipline and pastoral preaching underscore the emotional and spiritual weight of these issues. The episode wraps up with lighter holiday banter — Black Friday, shopping online, and well-wishes for listeners — and a closing invitation to share the ministry. Overall, listeners can expect a balanced mix of biblical teaching, historical context, pastoral application, and warm conversational moments from Rowan and Don.

Join hosts Rowan Miller, Don Patterson and Marcus Miller for a wide-ranging, candid episode of Relish that explores how Christians can talk across political and cultural divides with respect. The conversation opens with a personal story about a university professor who appeared on a conservative "watch list," the threats that followed, and the missed opportunity for real dialogue — a springboard into larger concerns about polarization in American public life and the church. The hosts reflect on practical ways to have better conversations: distinguishing arguments from personal attacks, rekindling biblical literacy, and modeling respectful disagreement. They quote Luke 4 and the Sermon on the Mount as reminders of the church's call to care for the poor, lift the oppressed, and hold a faith that speaks to social concerns without becoming merely partisan. Generational change is a major theme. The episode contrasts older patterns of institutional church life with Gen Z's different expressions of faith — decentralized communities, new worship forms (including music and online platforms), and a surge in Bible interest — while asking how discipleship, mentoring, and tangible care for neighbors can follow. The hosts celebrate young people's passion while wrestling with how to translate energy into sustainable social action. Practical parish stories illustrate the point: challenges keeping institutional events and volunteer leadership alive, the end of long-standing fundraisers, and hopeful examples like meat canning and new evening services focused on Scripture, praise, prayer and healing. The dialogue emphasizes that the church can evolve its practices to better serve mission and community needs. Throughout, Rowan, Don and Marcus offer wisdom about navigating disagreement within congregations, renewing mission focus, and creating intergenerational relationships that foster discipleship. They invite listeners to suggest guests and topics and close with an encouragement to share the podcast and support the ministry's goal: helping people grow deeper in their understanding of God and his calling in daily life.

Relish returns with a special edition conversation about faith, culture, and the often-overlooked language of dress. Hosts Don Patterson and Rowan sit down with longtime Hillcrest history teacher and coach Marcus Miller to explore how clothing, customs, and community expectations have signaled belief across generations — and what that looks like today. The episode opens with warmth and anecdote: Marcus brings his grandfather's transition coat — a garment that marks the shift between Amish and conservative Mennonite dress — and recounts family and school memories from Iowa Mennonite School (now Hillcrest). The trio traces historical changes in plain dress, school rules about ties and coverings, and surprising student reactions to questions about feeling different as Mennonites across the decades. Rooted in Scripture, the discussion centers on Romans 12:1–2 (nonconformity and transformation) and spills into Matthew 5–7 and the fruits of the Spirit. The guests wrestle with legalism versus heartfelt worship, asking whether outward dress still matters, when it rightly communicates faith, and how external signals compare to the ongoing, often fuzzy work of spiritual action and character. Through stories — from boys in IMS letter jackets to choir tie rules, to the practical question of whether ministers should wear collars in places like prisons — the episode balances history, theology, and practical counsel. Listeners will hear perspectives on modesty, generational shifts (including modern trends in clergy attire and Gen Z expectations), and concrete spiritual practices that make a witness beyond clothing: living the Sermon on the Mount, cultivating the fruits of the Spirit, and allowing transformed actions to speak as loudly as any uniform. Expect a reflective, anecdote-rich conversation that connects family memory and church policy to broader questions about identity, witness, and cultural adaptation. Whether you're curious about Mennonite history, pastoral practice, or how to live out nonconformity in a messy world, this episode offers stories, scripture, and practical prompts to help add a little spice to your spiritual life.

Join hosts Don Patterson and Roan Miller for a warm, candid episode of Relish that blends humor, personal stories, and practical theology. They kick off with morning devotion habits and a lighthearted quiz game, reflect on a 50th high school reunion, and answer the simple but profound question: Who is Jesus? Expect laughter, memory lapses, and heartfelt testimony about faith lived out. The conversation moves into deeper territory on how Christians should speak into one another's lives. Don explores biblical foundations for confronting sin and calling friends to growth, referencing Ephesians and Paul's counsel in 2 Corinthians about godly sorrow that leads to repentance. They discuss the balance of speaking truth in love, the responsibilities of close fellowship, and the importance of sharpening one another as the body of Christ. Listeners will also hear a thoughtful comparison of Amish and Mennonite practice and belief — from the Schleitheim Confession and the use of the ban (excommunication) to differences in emphasis on outward customs versus inward spirituality. Don explains why some Amish are adopting English Bibles to better understand Scripture, and why both communities prize the Word of God. Throughout the episode you'll get down-to-earth pastoral insight, practical takeaways for friendship and church life, and an open invitation: the hosts offer to come speak and take questions at local churches.

Hey friend — welcome back to Relish with Rowan and Don, where we tackle the big, messy questions about faith in a simple, down-to-earth way. In this short episode they answer listener questions about hearing God's call, praying with confidence (and not always getting a yes), what Exodus really meant by “eye for an eye,” and how Jesus raises the bar on justice and forgiveness.

Song: Towo Kalona Music by: Alix Thorpe Notes: I did something a little different in the way I shared this -- I took time with the proto-Celtic, so you could be comfortable singing in a Bronze-Era language... and then there's the usual looped section, with a harmony above and below -- but then at the reprise, I sing just the melody with piano, and then just the piano so you can sing the melody yourself, and allow me to accompany you. I find this song of Alix Thorpe's beautifully addictive, and there's something about singing in a bone language that feels like healing perspective to me. After you are snagged by the melody and parts on the podcast, buy it from her on Bandcamp, where you can hear the full English lyrics! Songwriter Info: Alix is a mother, a birth doula and a shiatsu practitioner who lives in Devon in England. She found her voice and began writing songs only a few years ago. Song for Alix is a way of prayer and an expression of soul. She has written several songs in proto-Celtic; a kind of "spirit language" and ancestral mother tongue made of the earliest traceable fragments of the Celtic languages, dating back around 4000 years. Dreaming with proto-Celtic has been a powerful vehicle for kindling connection with her ancestral roots. Alix's songs are particularly inspired by whales, the spirit of the rose, Buddhism and honouring sacred rites of passage. Sharing Info: The song is free to share but Alix always welcomes financial and/or networking support if/when folks are so moved.

On this episode of the ReGen Brands podcast, we're joined by Joe Miller from Kalona SuperNatural — a 20-year veteran of the dairy world and a passionate advocate for organic and regenerative farming. We dig into Kalona's unique vertically integrated ecosystem (that includes 19 different businesses!), the brand's deep partnerships with family dairy farms, and all the ways regenerative is shaping their efforts from soil to shelf. Joe shares the story of how a group of farmers took matters into their own hands when the local co-op abandoned the organic market — and why practices like low-temp pasteurization and non-homogenization are helping differentiate their “almost raw” dairy offerings. We also discuss the challenging questions — how regenerative dairy can thrive and scale in a landscape dominated by consolidation, consumer confusion, and razor-thin margins. And Joe gives a heartfelt case for why organic and regenerative matters more than ever — to the land, to the farmer, and to the person drinking the milk. Episode Highlights:
