SUNDAY DISH

This week on The Good Life, Heather takes us through 1 Timothy 2, exploring the importance of praying for everyone and navigating some of Scripture’s more challenging passages. We’re reminded to keep Jesus at the center, even when we encounter difficult questions or differences of opinion.

Q1: First of All, Pray

Heather, can you share the prayer of John of the Cross and what it teaches us about prayer?

Follow-up: Why is praying for all people so important, and what makes prayer challenging for us?

Q2: A Church That Prays

Doug, what’s the vision behind the Prayer Team, and how can someone get involved?

Q3: When Scripture Is Difficult

What makes this passage challenging, and how should we approach parts of the Bible that seem confusing or divisive?

Q4: Culture or Jesus?

How can we recognize when culture is shaping our beliefs more than Jesus? What was happening in Ephesus that helps us understand Paul’s instructions?

Q5: Back to the Garden

What is Paul communicating in verses 13–15, and how should we understand this passage in the context of the larger discussion?

Q6: Unity Through Disagreement

Can Christians disagree on challenging passages like this and still maintain unity? How do we keep the main thing the main thing?

WEEKEND CHITCHAT
Quick catch-up on what everyone did outside of work.

BIBLE READING CHALLENGE
Isaiah 19–36, Ephesians 2–6, Philippians 1–2

SUNDAY DISH

We kicked off our new fall series, The Good Life, with 1 Timothy 1. Jamey challenged us to consider what people see when they look at Jesus’ church. Paul confronts teaching that creates insiders and outsiders, then points to his own story as evidence of Jesus’ mercy and patience. The goal? Let God’s grace form us into people whose love makes Jesus visible.

Q1: When Have You Felt Like an Outsider?

When was the last time you walked into a place where you didn’t know anyone? What helped you feel welcome?

Q2: When Traditions Divide

What are some ways Christian traditions or preferences can create insiders and outsiders?

Follow-up: Who has made following Jesus appealing to you by the way they lived?

Q3: The Goal Is Love

Paul says the goal of his instruction is love. How can we tell the difference between teaching that forms us in Jesus and arguments that simply make us feel right?

Q4: Grace That Changes Us

“Most people do not need to be told they’re failing; they need to be reminded God loves them in spite of it.” How do we offer that reassurance while still inviting people to be changed by Jesus?

Q5: Making Jesus Visible

The Big Idea says, “The way of Jesus becomes believable when it becomes visible in us.” When is it easiest—or hardest—for you to display the Good Life?

Follow-up: Who might we need to move toward as a church family?

Q6: Still Becoming

What would you say to someone who feels like their slow progress means they’re failing?

Follow-up: What’s one hopeful next step they can take this week?

Guests: Jamey, Christina, Megs Anderson

WEEKEND CHITCHAT
Quick catch-up: “What did y’all get into this weekend?”

BIBLE READING CHALLENGE
“What stood out to you from this week’s reading?”

SUNDAY DISH

In the final week of Receipt, Pastor Jamey connects God’s gift of grace with how we handle everything He’s entrusted to us. Jesus has paid our sin debt in full, so our generosity becomes a grateful response to what He’s already done. When Jesus is #1, our priorities change: receive with gratitude, return in worship, cultivate with wisdom, and enjoy with freedom.

Q1: A Little Joy

What small purchase reliably makes an ordinary day better for you?

Q2: The Receipt Tells the Story

Jamey, you talked about the gap between seeing yourself as frugal and what your spending summary actually showed. When have your receipts surprised you about what really matters to you?

Q3: Why the First Tenth

You mentioned tithing before the Law of Moses and Jesus’ teaching about it. Can you walk us through those passages and how they shape our church’s approach to giving today?

Q4: A Heart That Follows

You said, “The tithe isn’t primarily about funding the church. It’s about forming the worshiper.” What have you noticed changing in you and Bonnie as you’ve grown in generosity?

Follow-up: What might someone miss if they wait to feel generous before they begin?

Q5: Trust When It Feels Tight

The Big Idea asks, “If Jesus is #1 in my life, how should I handle what He’s given me?” For someone already stretched thin, what is a faithful first step, and how can our church help?

Follow-up: How does remembering that Jesus has already paid our debt keep giving from becoming an attempt to earn God’s approval?

Q6: A Different Kind of Freedom

What could we decide before our next paycheck to help us save wisely and enjoy God’s gifts without comparing our lives to anyone else’s?

Follow-up: What would growth look like if our income stayed exactly the same?

WEEKEND CHITCHAT
Quick catch-up: “What did y’all get into this weekend?”

BIBLE READING CHALLENGE
“What stood out to you from this week’s reading?”

SUNDAY DISH

Week three of Receipt, Pastor Jamey’s message “Return Policy” takes us back to the Garden to rethink how we handle everything God has placed in our hands. Our possessions can’t carry the weight of our identity or security. Instead, we’re called to receive God’s gifts with gratitude, enjoy them, cultivate what He’s entrusted to us, and share them with others.

Q1: The Box in the Trunk

When a purchase needs to go back, do you return it right away or let it ride around in your trunk for a month?

Q2: When More Becomes a Burden

Jamey, you talked about possessions promising peace but sometimes creating anxiety. When has something you thought would make life easier actually added pressure?

Q3: Before There Was Money

Why start a message about money in Genesis 1, before money even existed?

Follow-up: What does that teach us about the difference between owning something and being entrusted with it?

Q4: Enjoy the Gift

You said, “God’s gifts are meant to be enjoyed.” Where’s the line between enjoying what God has given us and depending on it for security?

Q5: The Bread in Our Hands

The Big Idea asks, “What does God want me to do with everything He has placed in my hands?” When someone beside us has far less, what makes that question difficult to act on?

Follow-up: What could we do together as a church that would be harder to do alone?

Q6: More to Offer Than We Think

For someone who feels like they have little to offer, where would you start in helping them recognize a gift God has already placed in their hands?

Follow-up: What’s one small way they could cultivate and share it this week?

The Bible for Grown-Ups: What Matters Most

What happens when the questions we have about faith grow up with us?

This week on Made For Mondays, Joe sits down with Pastor Doug, Chelle, and Meghan to talk about the heart of The Bible for Grown-Ups series: Jesus—especially His death and resurrection—is at the center of the whole story.

We’ll talk about growing from a kid-sized faith into a faith that can wrestle with real-life questions, why the resurrection is so important, and what it looks like to pass on what we’ve received without being preachy or forced.

In this episode:

• How our understanding of familiar Bible stories changes as we grow
• Why the resurrection is the hinge of Christian faith
• How adult questions can deepen our faith
• What it means to pass on a faith that was passed down to us
• How keeping Jesus at the center can reshape our everyday lives

Made For Mondays | The Bible for Grown-Ups: The Old Testament

What if the Old Testament isn’t just a collection of ancient rules—but the beginning of a much bigger story?

This week on Made For Mondays, we take a 30,000-foot look at the Old Testament and how its stories, people, failures, promises, and prophecies all point toward Jesus. We’ll talk about why historical context matters, how to approach difficult passages, and what Israel’s story teaches us about God’s faithfulness.

In this episode:

• Why understanding the backstory can change how we read the Bible
• How the Old Testament points us toward Jesus
• What happens when culture starts shaping our definition of success
• What it means to read the Old Testament for inspiration without treating it like a modern rulebook
• How God’s faithfulness gives us something to trust when our own stories feel unfinished

Plus, we tackle a question from the Q-Bar about the history of the Quran.

Made For Mondays | The Bible for Grown-Ups: Why Do People Matter?

What if some of our biggest questions about the Bible are actually pointing us toward an even bigger question: What does God say about us?

This week on Made For Mondays, we continue The Bible for Grown-Ups by talking about Genesis, creation, questions about science and faith, and what it means to be made in the image of God. We’ll explore where we find our worth—and what our strongest reactions might reveal about what we’ve allowed to define us.

In this episode:

• Can questions actually deepen our faith?
• What is Genesis really trying to tell us?
• Who gets to determine our worth?
• What does it mean to be made in God’s image?
• What do our strongest emotional reactions reveal about us?
