In this episode of Between Sermons, we dive into Luke 2 and unpack the deeper meaning behind the birth of Jesus. Was Jesus really born on December 25th? What’s the controversy surrounding Luke’s historical accuracy? And what does God’s sovereignty actually mean in our everyday lives? From theological questions about free will and prophecy to the humility of Christ’s birth in a manger, this conversation explores how the “Christmas story” is far more than a seasonal tradition—it’s a personal invitation. We talk about faith and intellect, cultural Christianity, the upside-down kingdom of Jesus, and what it means that the Savior was born “unto us.” If you’ve ever wrestled with doubts, church myths, or how to balance influence and humility in today’s world, this episode will challenge and encourage you.

What do you do when God says something that sounds impossible? In this live episode of Between Sermons, Pastor Brent McQuay, Ti’heasha Beasley, and Ariane Ogunlana unpack the second half of Luke chapter 1 and explore what it really looks like to move in faith “because God said so.” From Mary running to Elizabeth for confirmation, to prophetic promises being fulfilled after 400 years of silence, to Zechariah’s obedience unlocking his voice, this conversation highlights the power of community, the importance of discernment, and the beauty of trusting God before you see the outcome. The team also dives into cultural tension, wilderness seasons, salvation leading to service, and why holiness and righteousness aren’t optional extras but evidence of transformation. Whether you’re walking through a waiting season, processing a word from God, or simply trying to understand Scripture more deeply, this episode will challenge you to trust His promises, lean into community, and live boldly in obedience.

What does it really mean to be a disciple—and how do you live that out beyond Sunday mornings? In this episode of Between Sermons, Pastor Brent McQuay sits down with David and Ti’heasha Beasley to unpack what real discipleship looks like in everyday life. They explore the difference between being taught and being discipled, why following Jesus requires devotion, discipline, and duplication, and how community plays a vital role in spiritual growth. The conversation brings clarity to common confusion around discipleship, challenges the idea that online sermons alone are enough, and reminds believers that discipleship is both personal and relational. Whether you’re new to faith, feeling stuck, or ready to go deeper, this episode invites you to reflect on who is discipling you—and who God may be calling you to disciple next.
