Episodes
"Preach The Word" with Dr. Roger Williams
Hearing God's Word preached is one of the main focuses of our Sunday liturgy. But what is the goal of preaching? What will the preaching at this new church be like?

"Sunday Morning Worship: God Gathers His People" with Pastor Dave Jorg
Every Sunday, church communities around the world gather for worship, but how they worship looks differently from church to church.

In this episode, we sit down with Pastor Dave Jorg for a conversation on how the Bible helps us to know how to worship each Sunday.

Presbyterianism has existed as a denomination for over 500 years, but what does it mean to be Presbyterian? Is it a theological belief system? Is it a government structure? On this episode, Chris sits down with Pastor Charles Garland of Midtown Presbyterian Church in Tucson, Arizona to talk about the benefits and potential shortcomings of Presbyterianism.
