Rooted Week 4: Come to the Table

On World Communion Sunday, Christians around the globe gather at the Lord's Table, and in Week 4 of Rooted: Practices That Form a Disciple, we come to that Table too. Drawing on 1 Corinthians 11:23–26, this message explores how a divided church in Corinth forgot who the Table was for, and what Paul…

Holy Roast S4E2: An Aura of Hope with Lovett Weems

The United Methodist Church has been through a lot. COVID. Declining attendance. Disaffiliation. Financial uncertainty. Congregational conflict. And, for many pastors and churches, a whole lot of exhaustion. But what if we’ve been telling the wrong story about what’s happening to the UMC? On this…

October 7 | Moments Almanac | Elizabethton

On October 7, 1780, the Battle of Kings Mountain became a turning point in the American Revolution. Just days earlier, the Overmountain Men had gathered at Sycamore Shoals, where Presbyterian minister Samuel Doak prayed over them before they crossed the mountains to confront British Major Patrick F…

The First Christians Fasted Twice a Week

Usually this show finds the first Christians doing less than you’d assume. This time they did more.

Send us Fan Mail What if the leadership skill we avoid most is the one Jesus insists we practise daily: forgiveness?

Prosperity Gospel, Tim Tebow, & Life Surge: Why Doubt Is Not A Sin

Tim Tebow's presentations at Life Surge events felt more like prosperity gospel tent revivals than "Christian" wealth seminars. This helps explain why so many people felt scammed. In this episode, we unpack how a $30 all-day event leads to a $97 class and then $10,000 to $50,000 tiers - often on st…

One scrap can't become a quilt | Sunday Livestream | Oct 11, 2026

We were never meant to grow in faith alone. This week in our Invisible series, we look at Hebrews 10:19–25 and the practice John Wesley called "social holiness" — the conviction that Christian faith takes shape in honest, ongoing relationship, not in private isolation. Through the image of a quilt …

Grace That Will Not Leave Us Alone

What if grace does more than forgive us? In this episode of Rooted and Growing, we continue our series on United Methodist distinctives with Philippians 2:12–13 and Paul’s invitation to “work out” our salvation, trusting that God is already at work within us. For Methodists, salvation is more than …
