Ever feel like your faith is running on autopilot? In this episode, we take a fresh look at the letter to the church in Ephesus from Revelation and what it means to return to our “first love” for Jesus. We’ll also talk about sanctification—how God shapes us to live differently—and why the way we live can be the loudest message to non-believers and even atheists. This isn’t about pushing religion—it’s about living a life that quietl...

Things get wild in Episode 20! First, we talk about the Euphrates River drying up — is it climate change, prophecy, or just really bad plumbing? Then we whisper our way into the strange and oddly satisfying world of ASMR (yes, the tingles are real). And to top it off, we explore how scientists are out here trying to bring animals back from extinction — basically Jurassic Park without the raptors (hopefully). It’s a weird, fascinati...

 In this episode, we’re unpacking John’s wild and beautiful vision of Jesus from Revelation 1:9–20.

We’ll talk about what this vision tells us about who Jesus is right now, what it meant to the early church, and why it still matters today. Grab your Bible, and your coffee, and let’s explore this together.

What do explosive lava flows, retro career daydreams, and tiny coconut pirates have in common? Absolutely nothing—except this podcast. This week the crew dives into wonderfully random topics like the scary spectacle of volcanoes, speculate wildly about what jobs we might’ve had in the 1950s (Landman? Farmer? Hitch-Hiking Hobo?), and explore pop culture oddities like the Kakamora. It’s a whirlwind of "facts", fun, and occa...
