Hangry for Justice? | Trinity Talks Podcast

Jesus says that those who hunger and thirst for righteousness are blessed. But what is righteousness? And how do we hunger and thirst for it? In this podcast we unpack the rich meaning behind righteousness, including how it pairs with concepts like goodness, equity and justice. We talk about what it looks like to choose justice even when it seems crazy, what we’re really thirsting for, and what it means for God to fill us. Tune in as we continue our conversation about the beatitudes and the surprising ways that we can all be blessed.

The Summit of the Sermon | Summer on the Mount | Trinity Sermons

Enemy love isn’t just a footnote in the Christian life—it’s the summit of the Sermon on the Mount. This week, we reach the steepest part of Jesus’ teaching, where he challenges us to turn the other cheek, walk the extra mile, and—most radically—love our enemies. In a world marked by division, retaliation, and tribalism, Jesus dares to imagine something higher. Something harder. Something holier.

Opting Out of The Rat Race | Trinity Talks Podcast

Everybody wants to rule the world. But that way leaves us all burnt out and disappointed. In this podcast we talk about how we can opt out of the rat race of life, instead choosing to follow the way of Jesus through humility and trust. We unpack the beatitude “blessed are the meek for they will inherit the earth”. We discuss what meek really means, and what it doesn’t. What it means to inherit the earth, and how to live like this is really true. Listen in as we share the quiet confidence that comes from following Jesus which allows us to leave behind the delusions of power-hungry games.

"You Have Heard... But I Say" | Summer on the Mount

Wouldn’t it be easier if God just gave us a rulebook for every decision?" This week as we continue our series Summer on the Mount we hear Jesus say six times, “You have heard it said… but I say to you.” But what is Jesus really doing here? Is the Sermon on the Mount just a tougher rulebook — or is it something more?

Grief, Love and Finding Comfort | Trinity Talks Podcast

Is it good to mourn? That’s the question that we’re tackling on this podcast. We continue unpacking the beatitudes with Jesus’ statement “Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted”. Join us for a conversation about grief and loss, love and comfort, and why mourning might actually be part of the job description for followers of Jesus. We talk about mourning the loss of people and places and grieving over the brokenness of the world. We reflect on the comfort that Christ offers and how it meets us in the midst of our sadness and anger.

"Shine On" | Summer On The Mount | Trinity Sermons

Ready to shine? This week we continue our Summer on the Mount teaching series as guest preacher Rev. Peter Blundell opens up Matthew 5:13–20, where Jesus calls his followers the salt of the earth and the light of the world. What does it mean to live a life that shines?

Poor in Spirit? Life In The Kingdom of God | Trinity Talks Podcast

A conversation about poverty, justice, reconciliation, and what Jesus says to us about it all. What is Jesus asking us to do right now and how is it related to being poor in spirit? On this podcast we talk about what the Kingdom of God is really like and who gets to be part of it. We begin unpacking the beatitudes by discovering the meaning of “poor in spirit” and how that really includes all of us. When life makes us feel poor, Jesus says that we are blessed and calls us to participate in his upside down kingdom.

Climbing into the Kingdom | Summer On The Mount | Trinity Sermons

This summer, we’re spending Summer on the Mount—a deep dive into Jesus’ most famous teaching: the Sermon on the Mount. In this first message, we begin with the Beatitudes. Far from being just a list of virtues, Jesus’ opening lines act like a step ladder—showing us how to enter the Kingdom of God and what life looks like once we’re in. Wherever you find yourself spiritually—curious, cautious, or committed—this is your invitation to take the next step with Jesus. Because this isn't just a sermon. It’s a whole new way to be human.

Controversy, Conflict, Culture: Reading Paul | Trinity Talks Podcast

Paul writes about women, slavery, marriage, Jews, and so much more. But even his fellow church leaders found his writing confusing. On this podcast, New Testament Scholar Dr. Stephen Chester unpacks some of the biggest challenges we face when reading the Apostle Paul’s letters. We touch on some hot topics like women, slavery, marriage and singleness. But, we also work through some of the complicated theology of Paul’s writings including conflict between Jewish and Gentile followers of Jesus and the connection between our good works and our salvation. Dr. Chester also dives into the history of Pauline scholarship including the gains and losses from the New Perspective on Paul. Tune in as we unravel some of these challenging topics and see how the New Testament writers were really just ordinary people trying to figure out how to follow Jesus in their world.

“Everything Happens for a Reason” | The Bible Doesn't Say That | Trinity Sermons

“Everything Happens for a Reason” We’ve all heard it—and maybe even said it—but is it true? This week we explore Luke 13:1–5 to see how Jesus responds to suffering and tragedy. Together we’ll ask: Does everything really happen for a reason? Or is there a better way to understand God’s presence in the mess?
