Is it possible to be both biblically faithful and financially comfortable? In this episode, we ask uncomfortable questions about wealth, lifestyle, and what it really means to live the Jesus way. Join Jon, Chris, and Brandon as they wrestle with what the Bible says about riches — and what that might mean for your job, your house, and your habits. We'll even consider what it should look like for a church family to be financially blessed. Some feathers might get ruffled. Some budgets may feel attacked. But hey... we ask for your attention, not your tithe.

Is there a “right” way to live… or have we all just been following invisible scripts we didn’t even know we signed up for? In this episode, we throw the rulebook out the window—or at least question who wrote it—as we explore the tension between cultural expectations, Christian living, and the ever-shifting lines of what feels “normal.” We'll unpack where our assumptions come from and whether they’re really serving us… or just helping us stay in our paint-by-number comfort zones.

It’s equal parts philosophical, practical, and delightfully unpredictable. We dig into everything from house sizes and meal times to how we raise our kids, all while wondering if God’s will is more jazz solo than sheet music. Come for the deep questions, stay for the rabbit trails, and maybe—just maybe—leave with a little more freedom in how you approach the canvas of you own life.

I think we saved the best for last! And who's the guy doing the opening host duties?!? For the final round of our listener Q&A "March Mailbag Madness" series, we’re diving into some of the biggest, boldest questions yet. From past episodes that fired us up to personal reflections on how these conversations have shaped us, nothing’s off the table. It’s honest, unfiltered, and full of the thoughtful (and occasionally chaotic) discussion you’ve come to expect.
