What If We Raised the Bar Again?

Aaron’s out on new-baby duty, so Scott and Seron take the wheel—talking baby names (and meanings), Easter plans, gospel choir dreams, and how PROS is growing in Fort Pierce. Along the way they unpack hard Psalm lines, debate dramatized Scripture reading, revisit the Heidelberg Catechism, and wrestle with a bigger question: why does it feel like the bar keeps dropping—and what would it look like to raise it again? - Timestamps: 03:09 — Rudderless episode: “We can go wherever we want” 03:40 — Did Seron influence the name? + “Søren” pronunciation debate 07:14 — Being outnumbered by kids (and why that’s terrifying) 09:13 — Anastasia meaning confirmed + Easter hype begins 10:19 — Should Easter be bigger? “Go big or go home” 10:51 — Pitch: Psalm 150 gospel choir as the Easter closer 15:08 — Fort Pierce PROS update + Psalm 129 “Over Me challenge” 19:08 — “Plowmen plowed my back” explained (why we need context) 21:29 — PROS momentum + building core group / attendance realities 23:18 — Watching the 45 Days doc footage (soft launch + pressure) 26:44 — “Book of Notes”: not for ammo—accountability 32:03 — “First time Psalm 3 was sung in Fort Pierce” moment 34:26 — Hot take: dramatized Scripture reading (turn drama to 100) 35:16 — Heidelberg Catechism: why it mattered + how it faded 40:06 — “Why did we make the bar lower?” (raising the bar convo) 42:26 — Internet/reference culture: why we memorize less 44:44 — Communion + the “germs” debate + kids playing in dirt 47:09 — Testimonies + Psalm 133 (community emphasis) 50:35 — Invite push: first official Sunday services (4 & 6) 52:42 — What if it’s packed? overflow / scaling / multiply 54:46 — Volunteer vs serve + etymology moment 56:50 — Event page numbers: “55 interested” (what that really means) 59:53 — Worship/space reflections + tightening the service template 01:04:27 — Documentary approach = the new standard 01:06:52 — “Could there be 100 PROS services?” vision talk - https://disciplestandard.com/ Support the Podcast - https
