Episodes

In this episode, we discuss about the unexpected moments where God reveals Himself in our lives, and how to recognise that.

In this episode, we dive deep into the theology behind John the Baptist.

In this episode, we dive together into the mystery of time and how God uses time to fulfill His plan into our lives, while we are living in faithfulness. Augustine once admitted that he knew perfectly well what time was until somebody asked him to explain it, and most of us live in the same condition, carried along by something we cannot define and cannot escape. Even those who believe nothing at all are still held inside this timeline, which is perhaps why we return to the subject again and ag...

Paul describes the body in which we live as a tent, and he does so not as an insult but as an accurate account of something built for a season rather than for permanence. In this episode of the Root Issues Podcast we work through 2 Corinthians 5 and consider what it means to inhabit a temporary dwelling without holding it in contempt and without grasping it too tightly. The chapter does not begin abruptly, for Paul has just been speaking of treasure carried in vessels of clay and of an outer se...

In this episode, we discuss the true meaning behind the first sign of Lord Jesus at the wedding in Cana of Galilee.

What do you do with a heart that won't settle down? In this episode of the Root Issues Podcast, we sit in John 14 and talk about troubled hearts, the seasons of life we didn't choose, and the one thing Jesus points to when everything else is shifting. The timing of this chapter matters. Jesus has just told His friends He's leaving. He's told Peter he'll deny Him before morning. These men are watching the season they've lived in for three years come to an end, and they have no idea what replaces...

If Jesus came to dwell with us, the question isn't whether He's near. It's whether we've opened the door. In this episode of the Root Issues Podcast, we work through John 1:14-18 and four ways we actually welcome Jesus into our lives. John writes that the Word became flesh and dwelt among us. The word he chooses there is worth sitting with — it literally means to pitch a tent, and it's the same picture Israel knew from the wilderness, when God's presence settled in the tabernacle in the middle ...

How do we know we're actually experiencing life in Jesus — not just believing the right things about Him? In this episode of the Root Issues Podcast, we walk through John 21 and three questions worth sitting with honestly. The three questions we work through: Have we come to grips with the fact that we can do nothing without Jesus? — John 21:1-8, with John 15:5 and John 3:30 Have we experienced healing from guilt, shame, and failure? These are some of the deepest barriers to receiving His lov...

Receive, believe, become. Three words from John 1:12 that lay out how a person actually becomes a child of God — and the order matters more than most of us realize. In this episode of the Root Issues Podcast, we sit with one verse and talk about what it means to receive Christ, what believing in His name actually involves, and why becoming is something you're given rather than something you achieve.

In today`s episode, alongside our new guests, Adam and Julia, we dive into the significance of the washing of feet as a sign of love done by our Lord Jesus in the chapter 13 of the gospel of John.

Am I in darkness? It's a question most of us ask quietly, usually when we're unsure who we are or where our life is actually headed. In this episode of the Root Issues Podcast, we open the first verses of John 1 and talk about what Scripture says about identity, life, and light — and why the darkness never gets the final word. John begins his gospel not with a birth story but with a claim about who Jesus is from the very beginning: the Word, the source of life, and the light of men. That has di...

Suffering doesn't stay neatly in one corner of life — it shows up at the dinner table, in our marriages, in the way we raise our kids, and in the quiet questions we carry to God. In this episode of the Root Issues Podcast, we sit down to talk honestly about why we suffer and what it means to walk through hardship as a family rooted in Christian faith. #RootIssuesPodcast #ChristianPodcast #Suffering #FaithAndFamily #ChristianLiving

Welcome back to the Root Issues Podcast and our series through the Gospel of John! In this episode, we explore one of the central themes of John's Gospel: identity — who Jesus is, and who we are because of Him. The Gospel of John was written so that we may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. But John doesn't stop there — he also shows us what that belief means for us: that to all who receive Him, He gives the right to become children of God. We look at how John reveals the identit...

Welcome to a brand new series on the Root Issues Podcast! In this first episode, we begin our journey through the Gospel of John with an introduction to the book and a deep dive into John Chapter 1. Who wrote the Gospel of John? Why is it so different from Matthew, Mark, and Luke? And what does John mean when he says "the Word became flesh"?

In this episode, along with our guests, Kaylee and Gage, discuss how to trust God in every situation of our lives, ultimately becoming unshakeable in our faith.

In today`s episode, we discuss about holiness in the context of Hebrews chapter 12.

In this episode, we unpack the theology behind the last chapter of the book of Hebrews.

In today's episode of Root Issues, we dig into Hebrews 11 and ask one of the most foundational questions of the Christian life: what is faith? Along the way we talk about what biblical faith really is (and what it isn't), why it's impossible to please God without it, and how the same faith that moved these ancient saints is meant to shape our everyday lives. Whether faith feels strong right now or you're wrestling with doubt, this conversation is an invitation to look again at the God who is w...

in this episode of Root Issues, along with our new special guest, Dan Dangler, we discuss what if the Bible's "Do not be afraid" wasn't just a command — but a promise? Join us as we explore what God actually says about anxiety, fear, and the peace He wants for your life. Practical. Biblical. Life-changing.

In this episode, we dive into the closing verses of Hebrews 10 — one of the most powerful passages in the New Testament about what it means to hold on to your faith when life gets hard. The writer of Hebrews speaks to a weary church, calling them to draw near to God with confidence, endure suffering, remember what God has already done, and not throw away their faith. We unpack what this means for us today and how four key themes — faith, endurance, gratefulness, and repentance — work together t...

Exploring the Parable of the Talents from Matthew 25—one of Jesus's most powerful teachings on potential, stewardship, and accountability.

In this episode, we have a special guest with us, John, who is helping us unpack the benefit of Jesus sacrifice for us and our response to it.

In this episode of Root Issues, we discuss the fulfilment of the old covenant as mentioned by the author of Hebrews in chapter 9.

In this episode, we sit down with our special guest Covington to explore one of the most misunderstood chapters in the New Testament — Hebrews 8. Together, we unpack the relationship between the old and new covenants, asking the hard questions: Does the new covenant cancel the old? Has God replaced Israel with the Church? And what does all of this mean for how we, as followers of Jesus, should treat and think about Israel today? If you've ever wrestled with replacement theology, Christian antise...
