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?

Why did the church lose track of its own prayer book? In this episode, we talk about bringing the Psalms back through worship — and why singing them might be the simplest path to memorization, discipleship, and deeper spiritual formation. We also get into modern music trends, “second-screen” listening, why a lot of worship lyrics feel copy/paste, and the strange new future of customizable worship tracks (yes… sliders for genres). Funny stories, real ministry takeaways, and a big question: is introducing Psalms in church risky — or is it just introducing the Bible?

Transitions aren’t the exception — they’re the norm. In this episode, we sit down with Calvin Theological Seminary President, Jul Medenblik as he prepares for a major leadership transition in the next year and a half.
What if the “shallow church” problem isn’t fixed by better lights, tighter sets, or even more silence—but by deeper relationships and active participation? In this episode, we react to a clip on authenticity in church, talk about why modern services can feel like events, and unpack a simple path forward: Scripture, prayer, community, and shared responsibility.
Why do Christians sing? In this episode, we dig into the “worship wars”—hymns, Psalms, and contemporary worship—and why music reaches deeper than words alone. We talk about how songs shape theology over time, why the Psalms were meant to be sung (not just referenced), and what it looks like to recover “the soundtrack of faith” in the life of the church—especially as we prepare to launch the PROS worship service.
Christmas is here — traditions, Santa debates, family chaos, candlelight services, and all the questions Christians secretly argue about every December.
What does it actually mean to be CRC?
Is it our theology? Our history? Our worship style? Our mission?
And if the Christian Reformed Church is going to reverse decline and rediscover its calling, where does our true identity begin?
Day 2 of the Multiply Conference focused on two powerful words: Leadership & Legacy.
Scott sits down with Aaron (Hull, IA) and Jonathan (Oskaloosa, IA) to unpack how leadership development, discipleship, and the future of the Christian Reformed Church are tied together.
