What do Disney vacations, Japanese swords, and fireworks have in common? They’re all part of this week’s BONUS convo on living hope. It’s deeper than you think...and it might hit right where you need it.

Why do we think revival has to happen somewhere else? Elissa and Skye dig into how God wants to move in your city, your job, your grocery store, and your street.

You’ll laugh, learn, and probably walk away thinking differently about what it means to be a community-changer. Whether it's praying for a server, building intergenerational friendships, or inviting a coworker to church, this one reminds us that revival is already in motion.

You just have to look around.

Elissa and Alex challenge listeners to rethink the way we live out faith. Jesus didn’t serve from a distance. He got close. He got involved. He touched the untouchable and welcomed the outsider.

This episode is your push to get past comfort and into calling. If you’ve been waiting for someone else to step up, it’s time to realize you are someone else.

Devotion. Fellowship. Breaking bread. Prayer. The first-century church got it — and it flipped the world upside down. Could those same four pillars bring revival to your life today? Let’s find out.

Mission trips fade. Conferences end. The mountaintop moments don’t last forever. So what do you do when the spiritual high wears off and the Monday grind kicks in?

In this episode, Elissa and Alex unpack what it means to move from pew to pavement and how to make evangelism a lifestyle, not just a church program. From Moses’ shining face in Exodus 34 to the boldness of Peter and John in Acts 4, they explore what it really looks like to live out the gospel in everyday life: authentically, compassionately, and boldly.

Welcome to Season 2 of After Sunday! This week, Alex is joined by our new co-host, Elissa, as they reflect on the revival of community and what it really means to be salt and light in a noisy, distracted world. Jesus’ call to shine like a city on a hill, Craig’s memorable coffee bean analogy, and how Christians can stay rooted are all topics at the table.

They talk authenticity, social media pressures, leadership, and how being present in your local community might just be your most powerful ministry. Bonus: what happens when the lighthouse goes dark? (Hint: it’s not the end.)

This week on After Sunday, Alex and Skye wrap up the “Revival of the Family” series with an honest conversation about overcommitment, burnout, and the danger of being too busy doing good. From Martha and Mary in Luke 10 to modern church life, they explore how distraction—even in service—can rob families of rest, connection, and spiritual depth. They also reflect on the cost of over-scheduling, the need for sabbath, and why your home might be the most important mission field of all.

Plus: Alex gets installed as a deacon, Skye says goodbye (for now), and they both talk Enneagram types, contribution chaos, and the beauty of knowing when to say no.

This week on After Sunday, Alex and Skye return to dive deeper into the sermon on "The Virtue Signaler." They unpack how outward appearances of righteousness can mask internal struggles, especially in families. From social media comparison traps to church culture expectations, they explore how humility and authenticity must define our faith. Plus, shoutouts to Skye’s dad and a conversation about paper straws, hypocrisy, and the Pharisee vs. tax collector dynamic in Luke 18.
