It’s the relationship episode! The one when we talk about the birds and the bees (Biblically, of course), and laugh. A lot. At a lot of things: beautiful, true, and ridiculous.

Join Rianna and Heidi, this episode’s fellow non-Theologian, as they explore the beauty of romantic love through Heidi’s own love story, discussing the call to be a minister’s wife (yes, we believe it’s a calling!), the power of communication in building meaningful relationships, and Rianna’s personal gripes with the lack of intentionality and romance among some of her peers (as well as Heidi’s solution!).

Laugh, swoon, eyeroll, do whatever makes you feel at ease, but remember: we’re not theologians.

Elijah the prophet is quite the guy. He goes before the apostate king Ahab, boldly decries the Israelites’ unfaithfulness, and declares God’s judgement of drought on the land - all with the constantly looming risk of death. But how was he able to do any of that? And, maybe more importantly, how do we?

Join Rianna and Shiloh, this episode’s fellow non-Theologian, as they unpack the three keys to Elijah’s life of faith and fearlessness, proposing alarm-less morning devotional routines, obedience in the face of some seemingly strange requests from God, and the deepest note of surrender that you’ve maybe ever considered.

What do a mustard seed, Noah’s ark, and the 144,000 have in common? More than you’d believe. (Pun intended.)

Join Rianna and Jake, this episode’s fellow non-Theologian, as they thread together a deeply hopeful and encouraging narrative of faith through Christ’s living illustration, Biblical models’ active demonstration, and End Time prophesy’s powerful implications.

Picture the scene: You're a disciple, you've just come back from your first mission trip, and you're hungry. Jesus invites you to rest with Him, promptly engages an audience of at least 5,000 individuals, and tells you they need to eat.

That's how one of the craziest days of your life is about to begin.

Join Rianna and Juliette, this episode's fellow non-Theologian, as they explore the events of Mark 6, sharing their experiences, relating to the disciples (with much honesty, though not with much pride!), and also keeping an eye fixed on Jesus through it all.

How do we know God's will? That's the billion dollar question, if you will. (I will.) But what if we're putting a lot of money in the wrong place? What if, instead of asking how we know God’s will, we should be thinking about how we understand it? And maybe you'd be amazed at how that simple transformation changes literally everything.

Join Rianna and Matthew, this episode's fellow non-Theologian, as they unpack some pretty explosive Bible texts on prayer, watch a Biblical #GirlDad confront the frustrations of God’s timing, and get real about managing God's silence in the midst of a challenging trial from Matthew's past.

Why does this podcast exist? Who's behind it? And does Rianna really hate theologians? Guess you'll have to listen to find out.

"For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast." (Ephesians 2:8-9, NKJV)

The show for those looking for a practical kind of theology.

(We promise we love theologians. Honest.)
