The purpose of this podcast is to seek out biblical patterns of truth to understand the events of our times. We seek to answer the overarching question: How do we do the will of God in a world where current events never stay current? For Scripture says in 1 John 2:17 that “the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever.”

In this episode we begin a series on idolatry and explore how idols are not just statues but careers, politics, relationships, and even good things in the church. Let us trace idolatry together from Eden to the present and show how it always begins in the heart.
We will discover the lie at the center of idolatry and see biblical examples (Adam and Eve, the golden calf, Ananias and Sapphira) that offer practical self-examination questions—about time, money, anxieties, and reactions to disappointment. Join in with us so we can turn to the living God and find endurance, encouragement, and hope.

The Society God Wants
How does God create a new society—without a temple, land, or city? Join us as we study how...centered on Jesus...we can live out that distinct hope today. We will study the challenges we face in our present society and how we can live differently (and abundantly) this side of heaven.
Can the people around us see the hope we profess in the way we live?
