Got a question? Let us know!

Host (Heather):
Welcome to Made for Mondays—the podcast where we explore ways to bring Sunday’s message into our everyday lives. Who’s joining me today?

Guests (Tyler, Jamey, and Chelle):
Hey everyone!

WEEKEND CHITCHAT

Host:
Alright—quick catch-up. What did everyone get into this weekend?

Host Transition:
Okay, now that we’ve established we’re real people with real lives…

BIBLE READING CHALLENGE

Host:
How’s Jesus speaking to you through the Bible Reading Challenge this week?

(Judges, Ruth, 1 Samuel, Luke)

WHAT THE WHAT????

Host:
After Easter, we got some great questions sent in—so we’re going to start digging into a few of those today, and we’ll keep that going in the weeks ahead.

We’re also gearing up for a summer series called Campfire Stories, where we’ll tackle real questions about faith, life, and culture—so this is a bit of a preview.

Question 1 – Relationships & Timing

We heard from someone wrestling with timing, trust, and relationships—feeling behind, feeling pressure, and wondering how much is on them versus trusting God.

Discussion prompts:

  • How do you balance intentionality in relationships with trusting God’s timing?
  • What does healthy discernment look like vs. being overly critical or judgmental?
  • How do you deal with the fear of being “behind” in life?

Question 2 – Trinity & Focus on Jesus

Another question asked why Christians focus so much on Jesus instead of speaking more broadly about God as a whole.

Discussion prompts:

  • How does Jesus reveal the fullness of God rather than compete with it?
  • Why is focusing on Jesus central to Christian faith?

Follow-up:
How should we understand gendered language for God—what’s cultural, and what’s theological?

SUNDAY DISH

Host:
Tyler, this week you continued our Turbulence series, looking at John 14–15—where the disciples wanted clarity, direction, and answers… and Jesus offered them something deeper: Himself.

Q1 – Icebreaker

Have y’all ever been completely lost—like truly had no idea where you were going?

Q2 – Personal Connection

Tyler, you shared about your journey—especially this being your last season on staff here.

Can you give us a glimpse into that earlier season when you first came here—and how that’s shaping how you’re navigating what’s ahead?

Follow-up:
Jamey and Chelle, can you relate to that tension of uncertainty and transition?

Q3 – Seeing the Father in the Son

In John 14, Jesus says, “Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father.”

How would you help someone understand that without oversimplifying the mystery?

Follow-up:
Why does this matter for someone whose view of a “father” has been shaped by pain?

Q4 – Trusting Without the Whole Map

We often want full clarity before we trust.

What does it actually look like to obey with partial light?

Follow-up:
How can we tell the difference between faithful waiting and fear disguised as wisdom?

Q5 – Big Idea: Trusting the Pilot

The big idea: Peace comes from
