Welcome to Season 6 of the EQUIP Podcast!

Why do relationships actually matter for Christian formation? In this opening episode, we kick off a brand-new season focused entirely on relationships—exploring how followers of Jesus are shaped through our life with others.

Before we dive into the specifics, we have to look at the big picture. We unpack the biblical concept of shalom and how our spiritual formation spans four core relationships: God, self, others, and creation! We hope you enjoy.

Welcome back, everyone!

In today's episode, Jake, Kev, and Artie dive into TCC's core relational distinctives. Beyond surface-level demographics, they explore why reconciliation, cultural celebration, and diversity are vital spiritual disciplines that shape a community where we are both deeply rooted and genuinely stretched.

Is Psalm 37:4 a divine "genie in a bottle" promise for wealth, fame, or the spouse of your dreams? In this episode of our summer Twisted Theology series, we unpack this classic verse and clear up the misconception that God is here to grant our worldly wishes. True delight in the Lord isn’t a transaction—it’s an authentic transformation. As we draw close to Him, He shifts our longings away from surface-level pursuits and aligns our hearts with His righteousness.

Hey Everybody! We hope you had a good Labor Day weekend.

Today we are closing out our summer Twisted Theology series by discussing one of the trickiest parts of the faith: how to actually have real, constructive arguments around Scripture.

We unpack where the hard lines are drawn in orthodox Christianity—from the non-negotiables of the Apostles' Creed to secondary debates like the age of the earth, Calvinism versus Arminianism, baptism, and the End Times.

In this episode of our Twisted Theology series, Jake and Kev unpack another misused and misunderstood verse in the Bible: Jeremiah 29:11, "For I know the plans I have for you... plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

We often see this verse used as a promise of smooth sailing, personal success, and a trouble-free life. But when we take a closer look at the actual context, we find a story that looks a little different than a quick pick-me-up!

Welcome back, everyone!

In this episode of Twisted Theology, we’re tackling what we believe is another widely misunderstood verse in scripture: Revelation 3:16. We often hear that God would rather you be hellbound than a half-hearted, "lukewarm" Christian—but the actual geography of the text tells a completely different story. Tune in as Jake and Kev tell us how!

Welcome backkk!

Hey everybody!
