Retreats, Camps, and Mission Trips are experiences that we don't easily forget. They often make a huge impact on our faith and on our lives. But many of us have experienced the frustration that comes with the spiritual lows that follow the spiritual highs produced by these experiences. We feel like we haven't made any progress at all. What do we make of such experiences? 

In this episode we explore the phenomenon of spiritual highs with 3 of our high school students and consider what we ought to do with these emotional experiences.

Episode 1.6 - Spiritual Highs (Josh Caleb Ava Abby)

At times it feels as if science and faith are incompatible. Science is how we know things - how we understand reality - and faith is a private matter of personal opinion. But is that really true? Is science enough to answer our questions? Is it reasonable or rational to have faith in the Christian God?

Episode 1.7 Science & Faith Part 1 (Sal Cordova & Chad Palmer)

In this first episode of Season 2 we talk to Steve Ngai and explore the inherent sacredness of music.

Episode 2.1 - Music (Sacred & Secular)

School is often something we think of as secular, but the truth is that there is a deep connection between education and faith that we need to learn about.

Episode 2.2 - School (Sacred & Secular)

Sports is everywhere in our culture. From a young age we are introduced to athletic activity and competition. Where does this activity fit in God's world? How should we think about and engage in athletics?

Episode 2.3 - Sports (Sacred & Secular)

Why do Christians go to church? Is it to learn about God? To worship? Is there a deeper reason? This month we talk about why going to church is essential for Christians and the answer might be less obvious than you expect.

Episode 2.4 - Going to Church (Sacred & Secular)

Prayer is definitely sacred, right? In calling prayer sacred do we compartmentalize it and keep our prayers from invading our lives the way they ought to? In this episode we take our cue from Paul Miller's book A Praying Life to help us think through these questions.

Episode 2.5 - Prayer(Sacred & Secular)

We had an opportunity we couldn't pass up. In this bonus episode on prayer we interview a guest from Bread of Life who is an amazing example of what a praying life looks like.

Episode 2.5+ - Prayer Bonus Episode (Sacred & Secular)

Maybe now more than ever we are watching videos. The abundance of content (Netflix, YouTube, etc.) paired with the coronavirus pandemic has left us with plenty to watch and plenty of time to watch it. In this month's episode we think about the sacredness or secularity of video entertainment. How should we select and interpret the videos we watch? Is there value to "secular" videos beyond entertainment?

Episode 2.6 - Videos (Sacred & Secular)

A Christian approach to alcohol has been a hotly debated issue in the church's history. This month we aim to bring some clarity so that students can develop a wise and biblical approach.

Politics in America is a complicated issue to talk about and to think about. Opinions are wide-ranging and emotions run deep. But what should our attitude as Christians be toward our American government at a national level? At a state level? At a local level?

Episode 2.10 - Politics & Government (Sacred & Secular)

The holiday season is for many a shopping season. In this episode we ask ourselves what it means to have a good relationship with our stuff - our material possessions. How can Christians be faithful with our things?

Episode 2.11 - Materialism (Sacred & Secular)

In this final episode of season 2 we finish our discussion of sacred vs. secular by looking at the issue of money. It is an issue of great importance and one the Bible has much to say about. So what does it mean for a Christian to be faithful in the area of money?
