Today we're diving into the topic of intergenerational relationships. What does the Bible say about how we should relate to those older than us? Does older always mean wiser? Can we correct an older Christian? Why should I build relationships with those older than me? All these questions and more are tackled in today's episode as we lead up to the launch of my new fiction book, Grandpa's Comrade, coming November 11, 2025!

We're heading into fall, and while most of us love the changes in seasons, most of us are a little less enthusiastic about life changes. In today's episode, we're digging into changing seasons, both in the weather and in life. Why do seasons change? What does the Bible say about seasons? And, most importantly, what do seasons teach us about God? Grab your coffee and Bible and let's dig into God's Word together!

In today's episode, we're going through step-by-step how to do an inductive Bible study using free resources available to us for study, like Blue Letter Bible, Bible Gateway, and Study Light. I'll wrap it up sharing a commentary I wrote on Psalm 136 as an example of how this type of studying works. I hope that this episode encourages you to get into the Word for yourself!

Today on the podcast we’re talking about patriotism. We just finished celebrating Independence Day here in the United States, celebrating our freedoms and patriotism in this nation. But is patriotism biblical? Does being citizens of heaven mean we shouldn’t care about our nations or what happens in government? Let’s dive into what the Bible has to say about this topic together!

Today on the podcast, I'm excited to interview my grandparents, David and Betty Gjesdal! They have been married for fifty-eight years, and I am excited for you to listen in as they share what the Lord has taught them through their marriage. Tune in to hear my grandparents share how they met and knew that this was the one; the importance of the vows we make; what they learned about marriage through different seasons of life; advice for singles and young marrieds; and more! I was so blessed to chat with my grandparents about godly marriage, and I know you will be, too!
