Unlock One: The Bible is a Gift

Have you forgotten what a gift the Bible really is?

In this second episode of our Unlocking the Bible series, we explore why the Bible is far more than just information, obligation, or a spiritual checkbox. The Bible is God's Word to us! It reveals who God is and who we are, provides wisdom and stability in a confusing world, and ultimately points us to Jesus the whole way through. The first key to becoming a regular Bible reader isn’t better discipline; it’s recovering your desire for the gift...

A Ten Minute Bible Habit Can Change Your Life!

Ten minutes doesn’t sound like much. But what if ten minutes a day in the Bible could actually change your life? In this first episode of our new series, Unlocking the Bible, we explore why so many Christians want to read Scripture consistently but struggle to follow through. We talk about the power of small daily habits, why “tiny beginnings” matter more than dramatic resolutions, and how even a few minutes each day in God’s Word can slowly transform the kind of person you become. We also share practical encouragement for building a sustainable Bible-reading rhythm that actually lasts. 🔔 Subscribe now & don't miss an episode of our brand-new series, Unlocking the Bible. 👀 📚 Join our book club!

Is Hard Work a Myth? A Christian View of Success and Merit

In America, we’re told that if we work hard, make good choices, and play by the rules, we’ll succeed. But is that actually how life works? In this *final* episode of our Not Just Sacred series, we explore the “myth of hard work” and take a closer look at how success really works. How much of where you are today is due to your effort and choices, and how much is due to factors outside your control? Looking at everything from cultural assumptions to biblical wisdom, we unpack the strengths and limits of meritocracy, the hidden role of luck (or grace), and why seeing your life rightly can lead to greater humility, generosity, and gratitude. 🔔 Subscribe now!

Why Aren't People Having Kids Anymore?

Why are fewer people having kids, and does it really matter? In recent years, birth rates have dropped dramatically across the U.S. and much of the world. While many assume it’s a financial issue, the deeper cause may be cultural: we’ve stopped seeing children as a blessing and started seeing them as a burden. In this fourteenth episode of our Not Just Sacred series, we explore what’s behind the decline in marriage and family, how our cultural values around money, career, and independence have shifted, and what the Bible has to say about children, marriage, and the purpose of family. We also cast a positive vision for why Christians should value and embrace children, not as obstacles to a good life, but as part of God’s design for it. 🔔 Subscribe now!
