Christianity Society & Culture

Season 1

S1: E0 - Do We Really Want Peace?

Matthew chapters 5–7 detail the Sermon on the Mount, which brings us the statement "blessed are the peacemakers." In a societal climate where political violence is a growingly frequent occurrence with recent events like the murders of Melissa Hortman and Charlie Kirk, it brings us to ask ourselves, "Do we really want peace?" Let's talk about it.

S1: E1 - Are They The One?

Across all cultures and all time periods, many people believe in the idea of a soulmate - a predestined partner created just for you - often making us wonder after meeting a potential candidate, "Are they the one?" Let's talk about it.

S1: E2 - Which Way Would Jesus Vote?

We live in a society where, for many, there are only two ways to see America: Red or Blue, Right or Left. This constant push for "us vs. them" causes so much division and can leave many Christians wondering, "Which way would Jesus vote?" Let's talk about it.

S1: E3 - Thou Shalt... Own Guns?

With so much violence in the world, both in historical and current events, owning firearms is no doubt a controversial debate. Some people feel that no one should own guns, and others feel that it's a God-given right. With such a clear split, it raises the question, does God truly ordain that thou shalt... own guns? Let's talk about it.

S1: E4 Why Can't We Be Friends?

People are constantly growing and changing. When the changes undergone are spiritual, like becoming Christian, that can often mean leaving certain things behind, including, at times, our friends. Faced with this conflict, we come to ask ourselves, why can't we be friends? Let's talk about it.

S1: E5 What Does Success Look Like?

Life is a grind. At least, that's the idea society sells us: a constant race that feels like, if you're ever sitting still, you're falling behind. We compare ourselves to influencers, our friends, and even our family, but the goalpost seems to always be moving. This grind can consume our lives and shape how we feel about ourselves, but how often do we stop to question, "What does success look like?" Let's talk about it.

S1: E6 Can The Rich Get To Heaven?

Ask anyone you meet if they'd like to go to Heaven one day, and they'll probably say yes. Ask them if they'd like to be rich one day, and they'll likely say yes again, but in Matthew 19:24 Jesus says, "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of God." So then, is it wrong to be rich? Or to want to be rich? And can the rich get to heaven? Let's talk about it.

S1: E7 Do Ghosts Really Exist?

Almost every culture across most of human history has some form of belief surrounding spirits & ghosts. Some believe, some don't, and everyone has their own opinion about the idea. It's vital as believers to lean on what the Word says, but with so many different perspectives and experiences, what are we to think? Are ghosts real? Let's talk about.

S1: E8 Rap Music is The Devil?

Rap music is the most dominant genre of music today. It's sales and streams are the highest in the industry, and rap culture's influence can be seen globally from millennials to gen alpha. Rap has always been hit with controversy over lyrics and music videos being called demonic, but in recent years, it's getting harder to beat the allegations. From the Diddy scandal to lyrics about making deals with the devil, we have to wonder, was grandma onto something when she said "Rap music is the devil?" Lets talk about it.

S1: E9 Can Anyone be Saved?

Everyone has a past. Everyone has done wrong. Some people are convinced that certain sins are worse or not as bad as others. We can find ourselves looking at figures in the world today, or in history, like serial killers or tyrannical leaders who commit genocide, and wondering... can anyone be saved? Let's talk about it.
