Todd shares how God used horses to heal his own wounds and why true freedom isn't found in doing whatever you want, but in discovering who you were created to be.

In this conversation, we cover:

  • Why being “fathered” by God changes everything
  • Healing father wounds and breaking generational cycles
  • The difference between freedom and just doing what you want
  • Marriage and what it really means to love someone well
  • How surrender leads to strength, purpose, and identity

René shares how God is sparking an extraordinary revival in one of the world’s most atheistic cities. What started as a simple prayer for 30 people has grown into a thriving church with hundreds gathering across three campuses. It’s a great reminder that while the way the Church gathers, communicates, and reaches people may shift over time, the Gospel itself never changes. It is timeless, powerful, and relevant in every nation.

They highlight Jesus’s example of being sober-minded and how prayer and fasting can help reset our hearts, sharpen discernment, and guide us to respond with wisdom instead of anxiety. Rather than withdrawing or getting swept up in the chaos, Christians are called to engage with God’s peace, lift their eyes to the harvest field, and live out His mission in a broken world.

They talk about baptism, how to discern readiness for your kids, and what to do if you were baptized young and now understand your faith more deeply.

They also address the cultural moment we are living in. With constant unrest and emotionally charged narratives, they explore how followers of Jesus can slow down, seek truth, pray first, and stay anchored in Scripture while living as ambassadors of God’s kingdom.

We believe Jesus changes everything. We’ll do anything to get people to Him. There’s a lot going on in the world—and maybe you’ve felt it too: the sense that there has to be more. More purpose. More connection. More hope. We believe real change is possible—and it starts with Jesus. https://tpcc.org/

]]>In this episode, our pastors have a conversation about intentional faith and what it looks like to commit a year of your life to following Jesus with consistency, obedience, and trust.

They talk about baptism, how to discern readiness for your kids, and what to do if you were baptized young and now understand your faith more deeply.

They also address the cultural moment we are living in. With constant unrest and emotionally charged narratives, they explore how followers of Jesus can slow down, seek truth, pray first, and stay anchored in Scripture while living as ambassadors of God’s kingdom.

In this final episode of 2025, Pastor Aaron and the team share how the early church in Acts provides a blueprint for authentic discipleship.

Like the first Christians who faced intense opposition yet spoke truth with boldness and compassion, we too must learn to contend for the faith while still showing the love of Jesus. They remind us that clarity about biblical truth is kindness and that staying silent isn’t an option when eternity is on the line.

Now is the time to be equipped as disciples who can withstand cultural deception while advancing God's Kingdom with both courage and compassion.

They look back on the two-year Awaken Initiative, how God met our church in that season, and what has happened since.

The conversation breaks down what the Bible says about tithing, how it connects to discipleship, and why it has always been part of following Jesus. You’ll also hear clarity around common misconceptions, the difference between tithes and other gifts, and the reason Jesus talks so much about money.

If you’ve ever felt confused about tithing or unsure where to start, this conversation will bring clarity, encouragement, and a practical next step forward.
