What does it look like to live faithfully as a Christian in today’s workplace? In this episode, David Doran Jr. sits down with Tim Baker to explore how believers can embody integrity, humility, and courage in secular environments. They talk through the tension of wanting to be liked, avoiding “weirdness,” and yet being unashamed of the gospel. Whether it’s in a corporate office or creative space, Christians are called to a higher standard—one that often means living with a quiet confidence and visible character that reflects Christ.Tim shares stories from his own journey working in mainstream media, how God shaped his heart, and how a faithful presence can often open more doors than aggressive evangelism.
How should Christians respond when their neighborhood is changing? In this episode, David and Natan talk about the beauty and tension of cross-cultural friendships, especially in the context of a multiethnic church. They discuss how different cultural expressions flow from deeply held values and how those values can either reflect or resist biblical truth. From the challenges of cultural discomfort to the gift of common grace, this episode offers a thoughtful framework for engaging your neighbors with humility, curiosity, and gospel clarity.
Sex is a good gift from God—but our culture’s view of it is often shallow, distorted, or purely physical. In this episode, we explore what the Bible actually teaches about sex, challenging both secular assumptions and common Christian distortions.
Dating is often seen as casual fun or “romantic entertainment,” but is that the way Christians should approach it? In this episode, we discuss the purpose of dating and why Scripture calls us to something different than our culture.We define dating as an investigative period aimed at marriage, contrasting it with the cultural idea of recreational romance. The conversation explores why Christians should avoid dating without the intention of marriage, the role of purity, the importance of community input, and the dangers of both dating too casually and being overly picky.
Leadership in the church isn’t just about gifting—it’s about character. In this episode, David, Ronnie, and Natan continue their exploration of the biblical qualifications for pastors and elders, focusing on traits like self-control, sobermindedness, temperance, and respectability.We talk about how these traits are essential for godly leadership, especially in a culture that either indulges the flesh or idolizes hyper-discipline. What does it mean to be under the control of the Spirit rather than driven by self-will? And why is that distinction critical for shepherding the church well?
In this season opener, we reflect on the kind of character God requires for shepherding His church. Rather than focusing on charisma or credentials, Scripture calls for a life marked by maturity, integrity, and devotion to the local church. We walk through the biblical qualifications, clear up common misconceptions, and consider how these truths protect both the pastor and the people. Faithful ministry doesn’t begin in the pulpit—but in the home, the heart, and a life above reproach.
The prosperity gospel isn’t always loud and obvious. We discuss how prosperity thinking and the logic of immediate blessings have infiltrated churches and shaped the expectations of many Christians. It creates a concrete connection between actions and blessings—one that’s leveraged more heavily than the Bible does—ultimately removing dependence on God.
Disagreements are unavoidable in the church. In this episode, David and Natan reflect on how Christians can respond when convictions collide. Rather than dividing over every difference or flattening every conviction, Scripture calls us to a wiser path. They explore the categories that help us navigate disagreement with humility, clarity, and charity. Christian unity doesn’t mean we agree on everything—but that we know how to walk together when we don’t.
Giving is one of the most visible ways we express what we value. In this episode, we explore how the Bible talks about money, generosity, and the heart behind giving. We often reduce giving to a percentage or a performance, but Scripture paints it as an act of worship. David and Natan discuss how the gospel reshapes our view of generosity and why the local church is the first place we give. Giving isn’t about meeting a quota—it’s about revealing what captures your heart.
Church discipline can sound harsh in a culture that avoids confrontation and idolizes autonomy. But Scripture paints it as a loving correction meant to protect the church and restore the sinner. In this episode, we talk about what church discipline really is, why it matters, and how it reflects the heart of Christ. We also discuss what happens when churches avoid it altogether—and the damage that follows.
Membership can feel like a formality in a world full of subscriptions and casual commitments. But Scripture shows us it’s about clarity, not control—real people, real promises, real accountability. Belonging to a local church shapes how we love, serve, and endure in the faith. It’s not about having your name on a list; it’s about living out your discipleship with a specific people. Church isn’t just a place you go—it’s a people you commit to.
Motherhood and marriage are both beautiful gifts—and heavy callings. In this conversation, Claudia Doran opens her heart about the sacred weight of parenting, the real work of a Christ-centered marriage, and the quiet refining that comes with both.There’s a temptation in modern culture to chase ease or escape the pressure, but Claudia reminds us that the gospel meets us in the mundane. Diapers and disagreements. Dishes and discipline.These moments aren’t just noise—they’re an altar.
ome men wake up with a fire in their gut to preach the Word. Others get told by someone else, “You should think about being a pastor.” Then they spend months—maybe years—trying to make sense of that comment.This episode is for the guy trying to figure out what God is doing with his desire, and for the church that’s been given the responsibility to recognize and raise up shepherds. We talk about what it means to aspire to ministry, how that desire gets tested, and why no one should walk this road alone.The calling to pastoral ministry isn’t something you self-assign. It’s something God confirms through the local church, through character, and through the willingness to do the slow, often unseen work of caring for people’s souls.
"How do I know if I’m in God’s will?"It's one of the most common questions among believers—and one of the most misunderstood.We don’t get color-by-number directions in Scripture. There’s no verse for which college to attend, which job to take, or who to marry. But that doesn’t mean God has left us guessing.
At some point, many Christians wrestle with the question: "How can I know I’m truly saved?" This episode goes into biblical insights on the assurance we can have in our salvation, focusing on what it means to trust in Christ, persevere in faith, and live out the evidence of true salvation.
