  • Loving Your Neighbor With Different Parenting Styles
    Apr 29 2025
    In this episode of our Loving Your [Fill-in-the-Blank] Neighbor series, we’re diving into something many of us face daily but rarely talk about—how to love your neighbor with a different parenting style. From sleep training battles to snack-time politics, from screen-time boundaries to trampoline supervision, this episode is for anyone trying to raise kids in community while navigating differing values, opinions, and convictions. We reflect on our early parenting years and the pressure they felt to pick “God’s way” of parenting—only to realize that many of these decisions fall more in the realm of opinions than convictions. We'll walk through a helpful framework (convictions, persuasions, opinions) and unpack how parenting styles like authoritarian, permissive, free-range, helicopter, and gentle parenting often stir up strong feelings—but don’t need to divide us.

  • Loving Your Christian Nationalist Neighbor
    Apr 22 2025
    In this continuation of our Loving Your [Fill-in-the-Blank] Neighbor series, we sit down with pastor and author Caleb Campbell to talk about what it means to love our Christian nationalist neighbors. Caleb’s book, Disarming Leviathan: Loving Your Christian Nationalist Neighbor, invites us to move beyond fear and frustration and instead adopt the posture rooted in empathy, curiosity, and the way of Jesus. We unpack the meaning of Christian nationalism, explore how it functions as political ideology, tribal identity, and spiritual idolatry, and reflect on the cultural forces that have fueled its rise. Caleb shares deeply personal stories from his own ministry, including the painful losses, surprising encounters, and moments of conviction that led him from combativeness to compassion. Whether you’re feeling confused, angry, or just overwhelmed by what you're seeing in churches and communities, this conversation offers clarity and hope.

    Apr 15 2025
    In this kickoff episode of our Loving Your [Fill-in-the-Blank] Neighbor series, we’re joined by Christina Martin to explore what it looks like to love our Muslim neighbors with grace, curiosity, and genuine friendship. With over 20 years of ministry experience—including time spent living and serving in the Middle East and Singapore—Christina shares what she’s learned about building gospel-centered relationships with Muslims. From practical hospitality tips to navigating cultural differences and spiritual conversations, she helps us see that engaging with our Muslim neighbors doesn’t have to be intimidating. It starts with curiosity, humility, and a willingness to open our homes. We talk about what to expect in cross-cultural friendships, how to avoid common mistakes, why asking thoughtful questions is key, and how even simple gestures can open the door to deeper connection. Christina also offers powerful encouragement to pray for and with our Muslim neighbors—and reminds us of the beauty of being a faithful, loving presence in their lives.
