  • We Believe In | The Church? - Brent Parsley
    Feb 15 2026

    What does it mean for Christians to confess belief in one holy church when the church has caused some real harm, disappointment, and division for many people?

    In this episode, we explore one of the most challenging lines of the Nicene Creed and wrestle honestly with the tension between the church’s brokenness and its calling. We talk about unity, holiness, repentance, and why the church is not merely a human institution but something Jesus Himself is building.

    This conversation is for anyone who loves Jesus but struggles with the church, carries wounds from past experiences, or wonders whether the church still has a place in their faith.

    Many people are comfortable with God the Father and Jesus, but feel unsure about the Holy Spirit.

  • We Believe In | No More Dead Ends - Brent Parsley
    Feb 1 2026

    Part 4 of We Believe In

    What if the end of the story is actually good news?

    In this episode, we explore what Christians mean when they say Jesus is risen, ascended, and coming again. Instead of fear based end times teaching, this conversation centers on hope, restoration, and the promise that God is making all things new.

    You’ll hear why the resurrection means there are no dead ends, why the ascension brings the presence of the Holy Spirit into everyday life, and why the second coming of Jesus is about putting the world right, not escaping it.

    If you’ve ever struggled with fear about the future or wondered what Christianity actually offers, this episode reframes the story with clarity, depth, and hope.

    Your worst day will not be your last day.

  • We Believe In | One Lord, Jesus Christ - Brent Parsley
    Jan 25 2026

    Who is Jesus really and why does it matter for everyday life

    Part 3 of We Believe In

    In this episode, we explore one of the most important questions people continue to wrestle with. Not whether Jesus existed, but who He actually is. Drawing from the Nicene Creed and Scripture, this message invites listeners to see Jesus not just as a historical figure or spiritual inspiration, but as the living Lord who came for us and still holds all things together.

    If faith has felt distant, confusing, or disconnected from real life, this conversation offers a fresh and grounded perspective. We talk about why the gospel is good news rather than self help advice, what it means to give allegiance to Jesus, and how a bigger vision of who He is can bring clarity, peace, and hope in uncertain seasons.

    This episode is part of the We Believe In series and is designed for anyone searching for meaning, stability, and a faith that speaks to real life today.

  • We Believe In | One God, the Father, the Almighty - Brent Parsley
    Jan 18 2026

    What does it really mean to believe in one God, and why does that matter for everyday life?

    In this episode, we explore the opening confession of the Nicene Creed: “We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is, seen and unseen.”

    While those words may sound familiar, they carry a radical claim, that God alone is sufficient, and that everything else in life is meant to flow from Him, not replace Him.

    This conversation looks at why ancient cultures believed you needed many gods to survive and why the Christian faith insisted that one God was enough.

    Along the way, we examine how modern forms of idolatry still shape our lives today, often showing up as misplaced trust in relationships, success, security, or control.

    This episode addresses big, honest questions many of us carry:

    • Why do good things still leave us feeling empty?

    • Why does life feel so heavy if God is supposed to be enough?

    • What happens when we confuse the gifts of life with the true source?

    Rooted in Scripture and shaped by the historic Christian faith, this episode offers a hopeful invitation: you don’t have to carry the weight of being your own source or writing your own story.

    If you’re longing for clarity, peace, and a deeper trust in God, this conversation is for you.

  • We Believe In | Grab the Rope - Brent Parsley
    Jan 11 2026

    Part 1 of We Believe In

    What does it really mean to be a Christian today?

    In a world filled with opinions, influencers, hot takes, and endless commentary, many people inside and outside the church are left confused about what Christians actually believe and why it matters. Faith can start to feel overwhelming, individualistic, or even fragile.

    In this episode, we begin a new series called We Believe In…, using Scripture and the Nicene Creed to explore the core story of the Christian faith. Rather than offering quick answers or cultural reactions, this message invites listeners into an ancient, shared faith that has guided Christians through confusion for nearly 1,700 years.

    You’ll hear:

    • Why Christian faith was never meant to be practiced alone

    • How belief is not about total certainty, but humble trust

    • Why Christianity is centered on a Person, not just ideas

    • How the Nicene Creed serves as a guide or “rope” in confusing times

    • Why doubt, struggle, and questions don’t disqualify you from faith

    Whether you’re deeply committed, quietly questioning, or somewhere in between, this conversation invites you to stay in the boat, lean into community, and draw near to Jesus—even when faith feels complicated.

    This episode is especially for anyone who has asked:

    • What do Christians actually believe?

    • Can I still belong if I have doubts?

    • Is faith about certainty or trust?

    You’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself.

    Jan 4 2026

    Every year starts with hope. New goals. New resolutions. And every year, most of them fade fast.

    • Why resolutions fail and systems matter

    • How your daily choices shape your future

    • The difference between working for Jesus and being with Him

    • Why closeness to Christ changes everything else

    • Simple, practical ways to remove distractions and grow spiritually

    If you’re longing for a meaningful year, not just a productive one, this message will help you refocus your life around what lasts forever.

  • Carols | Away in a Manger - Brent Parsley
    Dec 22 2025

    Part 3 of Carols

    It’s Christmas, carols are playing, candles are lit, and everything feels cozy. But what if the songs we sing and the stories we tell are carrying a much deeper reality?

    In this message, we peel back the layers of nostalgia and sentimentality to rediscover the shocking and beautiful truth hidden in one quiet lyric: “the Little Lord Jesus.”

    This isn’t just a cute phrase, it’s a declaration that flips everything upside down.

    We’ll laugh at awkward lyrics and holiday chaos, but we’ll also confront what it really means to call Jesus Lord.

    Spoiler: it’s not just about a baby in a manger. It’s about surrender, control, and who truly sits at the center of your life.

    If you’re tired of feel-good faith and ready for a real, transforming encounter with the King of Kings, this one’s for you.

    Key Themes:

    • The Lordship of Jesus and why it matters now

    • Partial surrender vs. full devotion

    • Reordering your life around the true center

    Scriptures: Luke 2, Luke 6, Luke 9, Romans 14, John 14
