Steve Daugherty, Teaching Pastor

Friend, have you ever experienced a season where everything you thought was secure suddenly fell apart?This week on the Anchored by the Sword Podcast, I sit down with Bible teacher, author, speaker, and teaching pastor Alli Patterson to talk about freedom, failure, redemption, and learning to build our lives on the only foundation that truly lasts.Alli shares her powerful personal story of coming to faith as a teenager, drifting away from the Lord during college and early adulthood, and eventually walking through a devastating season of brokenness that nearly destroyed her marriage. Through that painful experience, she encountered the kindness, forgiveness, and presence of Jesus in a way she had never known before.What I love about Alli's story is that it reminds us that God is not afraid of our mess. He is a God of redemption, restoration, and second chances.We also dive into her newest Bible study, Spirit-Led Bible Study: Six Practices to Bring the Bible to Life, where Alli teaches practical ways to approach Scripture that move beyond simply reading words on a page and into genuinely encountering God through His Word.One of my favorite moments from this conversation was Alli's reminder that hearing God's Word is only part of the equation.Jesus didn't simply call us to listen.He called us to build.The storms of life reveal what our foundation is made of, and true freedom comes when we choose to build our lives on Christ instead of success, comfort, achievement, or our own plans.Whether you've struggled with failure, finding your footing after difficult seasons, or feeling intimidated by studying the Bible, this conversation will encourage you to take the next step toward Jesus and trust Him to rebuild what feels broken.Bio:Alli Patterson is a teacher, author, wife and mom of four out of Cincinnati, Ohio. She currently serves as a Teaching Pastor at Crossroads Church on the national teaching team. Alli is the leader of Woman Camp and founder of the Ignite Conference out of her passion for equipping women in the Kingdom of God.As a lifetime learner and lover of scripture with a seminary degree from Dallas Theological Seminary, Alli loves to create ways for others to know and love Jesus through his Word. She has created a fresh approach to Bible study in the release of Spirit-Led Bible Study, coming February 2026. She has written two books, How to Stay Standing and Blueprint for Belonging- both providing practical help translating Biblical principles into real life. Alli speaks at events and conferences and enjoys podcasting. She is a runner and die-hard Buckeye football fan who loves Mexican food almost as much as her bratty calico cat.Anchor Verses:Luke 6:47-49Luke 6:45Connect with Alli:Website: https://www.allipatterson.comIG: https://www.instagram.com/theallipattersonLinktree: https://linktr.ee/theallipattersonAbout Spirit-Led Bible StudyIn Spirit-Led Bible Study: Six Practices to Bring the Bible to Life, Alli teaches practical and approachable ways to engage Scripture, helping readers move beyond simply reading the Bible to truly interacting with God through His Word.The study introduces six practices designed to help believers observe, interpret, pray through, and apply Scripture while allowing the Holy Spirit to guide the process.***We love hearing from you!

Today, on Karl and Crew, we kicked off our weekly theme, “Chivalry.” Dr. Fazale Rana, also known as Dr. Fuz, joined us to discuss how biochemistry points to God’s design, explaining that discoveries in DNA and the unique human capacities for altruism, empathy, and chivalry reflect what it means to be made in the image of God. Dr. Fuz is the President, CEO, and Senior Scholar at Reasons to Believe, a non-profit that focuses on revealing God in science. Next, Seth Troutt joined us to talk about authentic masculinity, explaining how men can reject counterfeits such as passivity and toxic masculinity by pursuing godly character, Christlike responsibility, and biblical chivalry. Seth is the Teaching Pastor at Ironwood Church in the Phoenix metro area and author of “Authentic Masculinity: Leaving Behind the Counterfeits for God’s Design.” We then had Hutz Hertzberg join us to talk about the growing hunger for Christ-centered education, explaining why parents are rethinking their children’s schooling and how classical Christian education offers an alternative rooted in biblical truth. Hutz is the chairman at Hope in Truth and currently the Chief Education Officer of Turning Point USA’s education arm, Turning Point Education.

What road are you walking down?In this message from the Sermon on the Mount, Dr. Trent Langhofer teaches through Matthew 7 as Jesus contrasts the wide road that leads to destruction with the narrow way that leads to life.This sermon explores drifting versus intentional living, the voices shaping our decisions, and the difference between knowing about Jesus and truly knowing Him. Through the story of Chuck Colson and the words of Jesus, Dr. T reminds us that the narrow road may be difficult, but it leads to real life, purpose, and transformation.Scripture References:Matthew 7:13–27John 10Jeremiah 29James 1Trace Church | Colorado Springs, CONew episodes every week.

In this message from the Sermon on the Mount, Dr. T teaches through Matthew 7:7-12 and explains Jesus' invitation to ask, seek, and knock. This is not a formula for getting whatever we want from God. It is a call into deeper relationship with a good Father.Dr. T unpacks how prayer grows our connection with God, heals the way we see Him, and shapes the way we respond to others. As we receive the goodness of God vertically, we learn to release it horizontally.

Today, on Karl and Crew, we kicked off a new theme, "What are you looking for?" Our guests included Anne Graham Lotz and her daughter Rachel-Ruth Lotz Wright. They've written a book called "God Won't Leave You There: Joseph's Story." It shows how God turns trials into purpose. Career advisor, speaker, and author Robert Dickie III joined us as well. He offered encouragement and advice when looking for a career change. Also, Chip Ingram, pastor, author, and CEO & Teaching Pastor of Living on the Edge, shared from his book, "I Choose Joy." Joy is a daily choice through life...even if, and God can give you that strength.

"Blessed are the meek … I don't like that word. It's a great word, actually, if you understand it properly. But too often we think it means “weak,” or “feeble,” or “timid,” or “passive,” or “cowardly,” even. The gentle Jesus, meek and mild … the cosmic doormat. What the word does not evoke, often enough, is power under God-honoring control. With Jesus … infinite power, under this stunning love-driven control. Matthew was written in Greek, not English. And the Greek word is “praeis” … blessed are the “praeis.” And if you were to look “praies” up in a dictionary of New Testament Greek, you would find definitions like this: “gentle,” “humble,” “considerate,” … or “meek in the older favorable sense” … not the newer “wussy sense.” Gentle: Blessed by God, favored by God are the gentle. Humble: Blessed by God are the humble, because they won't treat others God loves with disrespect. Considerate: Favored by God are the considerate, because they won't use or abuse people because they can. So, some Bibles still translate it, “Blessed are the meek.” Others, “Blessed are those who are humble.” Others, “Blessed are the gentle.” That's my favorite, because I think it captures what Jesus meant the most clearly." Stephen "Doc" Pattison, Teaching Pastor

What did Jesus mean when He said, “Judge not”? In this message from Matthew 7, Dr. T explains one of the most misunderstood teachings in the Bible.Jesus was not banning all discernment. He was confronting hypocrisy and calling His followers to lead with humility, mercy, and truth.Learn four practical guardrails for judging Jesus' way, navigating conflict, restoring relationships, and speaking truth with grace.Scripture: Matthew 7:1-6Message: Judge Not | Sermon on the MountSpeaker: Dr. Trent Langhofer (Dr. T)Trace Church | Colorado Springs

In this message, Mike Breaux, Teaching Pastor at Eastside Christian Church in Anaheim, takes a deeper look at how we can be pulled by the currents of this world and slowly drift off course.Like a rip current, cultural influences can quietly shape our thoughts, values, and direction, often without us even realizing it. But there is hope. You'll be reminded that no matter how far you feel you've drifted, Jesus is always reaching out, ready to draw you back. Discover how to recognize spiritual drift, stand firm in your faith, and live as a light in a world that's constantly pulling the other way.

Tim Bounds boldly says that if he could inject one skill into leaders, it would be grief - not strategy, not emotional intelligence, not resilience. He believes grief isn't a liability in leadership - but a hidden strength. In this compelling conversation, Tim shares personal stories of loss and workplace setbacks, revealing how grief quietly shapes decision‑making, energy, and relationships at work. Together, we explore the five stages of grief and how they show up in teams and organizational culture. Drawing from Biblical wisdom and faith‑driven leadership principles, this episode reframes vulnerability as a catalyst for trust, resilience, and growth. Leaders will gain practical steps for creating safe spaces where people can bring their whole selves to work. This is an invitation to lead with empathy, courage, and conviction. As our guest reminds us, “Grief is not a weakness, but a path toward deeper connection, resilience, and faith‑driven growth.”About TimTim Bounds, founder of The Unison Company, is an organizational consultant and executive coach for businesses and leaders in the St. Louis region.

Send us Fan MailGUEST: VIRGIL WALKER, Teaching Pastor, Redeemer Bible Church (Gilbert, AZ) Kings, rulers, emperors, prime ministers, and presidents always surrounded themselves with advisors so they can hear what they consider to be the most informed perspectives of domestic and foreign policy. In our day, this would be the president's cabinet with the heads of the various government agencies.Most rulers throughout history have also surrounded themselves with spiritual or religious advisors in the hope that they will receive wisdom from those closest to God, or in idolatrous nations, from those who worship false gods. The Egyptian Pharaoh had his wise men, sorcerers, and magicians who provided counsel and performed their “secret arts.” The kings of Judah and Israel were always surrounded by prophets and priests in order to know God's will.And that's the critical point—knowing God's will only comes from those who genuinely know God. Just like the broad way that leads to the destruction and the narrow way that leads to eternal life, most who spiritually advise rulers will be like the false prophets of Ahab telling the king what he wants to hear while few will be brave enough to speak the true Word of God.Enter the modern day and President Trump's White House Faith Office, an advisory board of religious leaders selected by the president led by the well-known charismatic pastor and televangelist Paula White-Cain. White-Cain teaches the health, wealth, and prosperity false gospel and it influences how she leads the Faith Office.There are other more sound Christian pastors and leaders like Robert Jeffress, pastor of First Baptist Church in Dallas, and Franklin Graham, evangelist and head of Samaritan's Purse. These men are in a testing position—how to be faithful when there is compromise all around?Virgil Walker, pastor, author, writer, and podcast host, will join us this weekend to help us think through the spiritual influences on President Trump. Because how the President sees himself and how he makes decisions will be in part, perhaps in large part, influenced by who those have his ear.-----------------------------PROGRAM NOTES:Just Thinking podcastSubstack page

  Guest: David Marvin, Teaching Pastor, Prestonwood Baptist Church   If you'd like to watch this podcast, check out the PCA YouTube page.   This is the continuation from last week of a conversation with Prestonwood teaching pastor David Marvin about the practical application of God's commandment to honor your father and mother. Last week we focused on how we, as parents, can honor our own parents. This week we look at how we, as parents, can train our children to obey and honor us - so this is an important conversation! This conversation grew from a lesson that Pastor Marvin taught at Prestonwood a few weeks ago as part of the series addressing the Ten Commandments.
