Not Just Sunday: Christian Life, Following Jesus, & Daily Discipleship

Work takes up a huge portion of our lives, yet many Christians rarely think about it theologically. In this fifth episode in our Not Just Sacred series, we discuss what the Bible actually says about work: why it was part of God’s design from the beginning, how it was affected by the fall, and why it still matters deeply to God today.

We talk about work as calling, the danger of making it an idol, and what it looks like to "work as unto the Lord" through our jobs. Plus, in a world questioning the future of work through automation, AI, and ideas of a workless society, what does Christianity have to say? Whether you love your work, feel stuck in it, or wonder if it really matters, we hope this conversation reframes your job as a place to honor God, serve others, and live out your faith with excellence.

Money can feel uncomfortable to talk about, but the Bible certainly isn’t shy about it. With over 2,000 verses on money, Scripture consistently connects our finances to our hearts, values, and trust in God. In this fourth episode of Not Just Sacred series, we explore what it means to handle money as faithful stewards rather than owners. We talk about spending, budgeting, saving, investing, debt, generosity, and contentment, and how each of these reveals what we truly value. This conversation isn’t about shame or formulas, but about aligning our financial lives with God’s purposes and learning to say, “I have enough.”

What does the Bible say about health and fitness? In the third episode of our Not Just Sacred series, we take a Christian look at the body, the soul, and how they’re meant to work together. We explore whether fitness matters to God, how Scripture warns against being ruled by food or consumption, and why aging is something the Bible honors rather than resists. From questions about appearance and motivation to modern conversations around tracking, diets, Botox, and GLP-1s, this episode offers biblical principles for navigating health wisely without turning it into an idol. We also announce the winning book for our Not Just Sacred book club!

Does God care what we read? Should fiction make the list? First up in our Not Just Sacred series, we explore how Christians should think about reading, both the Bible and books beyond it. We share why Christians should value books and learning, how reading forms our attention and empathy, and why old books still matter today. We unpack how reading shapes who we become and how we see the world and we provide some practical tips for becoming better readers. Plus, we invite you to put it all into practice through our Not Just Sacred Book Club. More details below!

Does following Jesus mean retreating from everyday life or learning how to fully engage it? In the kickoff episode of our new series Not Just Sacred, we explore the biblical vision of a faith that encompasses ALL of life. From work and money to reading, sports, and ordinary pleasures, this episode reframes the false divide between the sacred and the secular. As we trace the Bible’s story, from creation to new creation, we discover that God is not abandoning the world, but redeeming it. Our hope is that this series helps you learn to glorify God not by withdrawing, but by faithfully engaging the world he called “good.”
