S06E08: Meaningful Membership | A Member's Perspective - Audio
Why does becoming a church member matter—and what changes when you move from attending to belonging?
Pastor Drew is joined by Fairview member Angie Pulley to discuss her and her husband Keith’s journey into membership, community, and service at Fairview. Angie shares how the Discover Fairview process helped them understand the church’s mission, become personally known, find meaningful relationships, and serve in areas connected to their gifts.
The conversation explores membership as a mutual commitment rather than a name on a church roll. Members belong to a spiritual family in which they can be known, cared for, challenged, and equipped to care for others. This kind of commitment matters at every stage of life—including high school, college, and young adulthood—because Christians were not designed to follow Christ in isolation. The local church does not merely want something from its members; it desires something deeply biblical for them.

S06E07: Discipleship | Is Social Media Dicsipling Us? - Audio
Is social media merely entertaining us—or is it discipling us?
Pastor Tyler is joined by Pastor Drew and Communications Director Kim Warden to examine how social media shapes our beliefs, desires, identities, relationships, and use of time. They consider its genuine benefits, including connection, encouragement, access to biblical teaching, and opportunities to invite others into the life of the local church.
The conversation also addresses the dangers of algorithm-driven content, false teaching, comparison, approval-seeking, temptation, isolation, and unhealthy dependence. Rather than treating social media as either harmless or irredeemable, Christians must approach it with biblical discernment and intentional boundaries—including, when necessary, extended periods away. Social media is forming us; the question is whether that formation is drawing us toward greater faithfulness to Christ.

S06E06: Kingdom Advancement | Are We on the Same Page? - Audio
What does it mean to advance God’s kingdom—and what role does the local church play?
Pastor Devin is joined by Pastor Tyler and Director of Ministries Lydia McMillan to discuss Kingdom Advancement, one of Fairview Church’s core values. They explain the kingdom as Christ’s reign and rule, explore its “already but not yet” reality, and consider how the local church serves a mission larger than its own programs, preferences, personalities, or institutional success.
The conversation also examines how Fairview’s mission and values unite its ministries around shared biblical convictions. Kingdom advancement is not reserved for pastors or ministry leaders. Every believer is called to embrace the mission, use their God-given influence, and take ownership of the church’s work together. The episode concludes by challenging each listener to identify one faithful step toward living with a kingdom-minded, all-in commitment.
