Yeah… we felt that one a little too personally.
We just posted this episode yesterday, and we couldn’t stop thinking about this line—so here it is again, because honestly… you probably needed to hear it again too.
Turns out faith isn’t about having a perfect week (or even a decent one). It’s about showing up, again and again, and letting God do the slow work of forming hope in us.
Hannah Miller King explains this beautifully in her conversation with Curtis about communion. We promise you don`t want to miss this episode, or her new book. Listen in.
We’re not just remembering something at communion, we’re being reshaped by it.
In this episode, Hannah Miller King unpacks how the table of God forms us to resist consumer culture, receive grace, and carry hope into a weary world. This is about more than a ritual—it’s about learning how to live. Don`t miss this episode.
It’s easy to drift into a faith where the lines feel clearer, the sides feel sharper, and the pressure to stay “in line” feels constant.
But Jesus never said the world would know us by our alignment. He pointed us somewhere deeper—toward love, toward humility, toward a transformed life.
That kind of faith is harder to measure. And harder to perform. But it’s also the kind that actually changes us.
Let’s follow His way, together. Read more from Russell Moore’s column in Christianity Today.
So much of our parenting (and honestly, our own inner lives) is shaped by the quiet assumption that capability is something we have to build from scratch—that courage, resilience, and strength are things we have to summon when life gets hard.
But what if that’s not the starting point?
What if the deeper truth is that our kids—and we ourselves—are not empty vessels needing to be filled, but people already formed with the capacity to face what’s in front of us?
In our latest conversation, David Thomas explores how that shift changes everything: how we respond to our kids’ struggles, how we speak to them, and how we help them see who they really are. Listen in.
The instinct as a parent is to step in, fix, and protect. But over time, that can quietly send a message: “You can’t handle this.”
David Thomas offers a different approach—one that feels slower, but forms something deeper. Ask questions.
Because the right questions don’t just guide behavior, they shape identity.
They tell your kids: You’re capable. You’re not alone. God has already equipped you.
In our recent episode, David Thomas (co-author of Capable with Sissy Goff) explores how small shifts like this can build real resilience and confidence. Don’t miss it.
What if understanding God requires more than just reason?
In this special bonus episode, Malcolm Guite invites us to recover a “baptized imagination,” showing how poetry doesn’t just accompany theology—it can actually do theology.
From Scripture to creation, imagination helps us perceive meaning, beauty, and truth in ways analysis alone cannot. Listen to Part 1 now.
Raising kids today can feel like preparing them for a world full of uncertainty.
It’s tempting to try to remove every risk, smooth every path, and shield them from anything hard. But Scripture points us in a different direction—not toward a life without fear, but toward a life formed through it. Courage isn’t the absence of anxiety. It’s learning, over time, that you are not alone in it.
This week on Good Faith, we talked about what it means to raise kids who are truly capable—not fragile, not fearless, but grounded, resilient, and able to face the world with strength and love. Why can we do that? Because we trust their heavenly father. Don’t miss our latest episode.
Reading Scripture can feel overwhelming, like there’s a right way to do it that we haven’t quite figured out yet.
But what if it’s less about mastering a method and more about building a life? A steady rhythm. A willingness to keep showing up, to read more deeply, and to let it shape us over time.
In this bonus episode, N.T. Wright offers a simple but profound invitation: not to read more impressively, but more faithfully. Swipe through his insights here, and don’t miss our conversation.
We’ve taught kids how to feel, and we’ve taught them what to believe. But we haven’t always shown them how those two connect.
“If faith and feelings are living on opposite sides of the room, it’s really hard for faith to shape anything.”
This episode is about closing that gap. David Thomas joins us to discuss his new book with Sissy Goff: "Capable: How to Teach Your Kids the Strengths, Skills, and Strategies to Build Resilience". Don`t miss this conversation!
Kids have never had more support, and yet they’ve never been more anxious. So what’s going wrong?
David Thomas of @raisingboysandgirls joins Curtis to talk about the hidden ways modern parenting can undermine resilience—and how a distinctly Christian vision can help kids face disappointment, take risks, and grow into who God made them to be.
How do we raise capable kids without rescuing them from every hard thing? This episode is for every parent asking that question.
We`re huge fans of David and his co-author, Sissy Goff around here and are thrilled David joined us on the podcast. Don`t miss this conversation, and grab your copy of their new book!
Earth Day can feel overwhelming.
The problems are global. The headlines are urgent. And for many churches, it’s not always clear where, or how, to begin.
But creation care, at its core, isn’t about solving everything. It’s about faithfulness. It’s about loving our neighbors in tangible ways, right where we are.
That’s why we’ve spent time this year listening, learning, and sharing conversations in our Christians & Climate series. Not to give easy answers, but to help us think more wisely, more faithfully, and more together.
If you’re curious where to start, or how your church might engage this conversation without fear or polarization, we invite you to explore the series and the read-along guides at:goodfaith.org/climate-series
Start small. Stay grounded. And trust that even small acts of care still matter.
We don’t gather to start something new.
We gather to remember. To step back into a story already unfolding—one that stretches far beyond our moment, and yet somehow includes it.
Music helps us find our place within that story. Listen in for more from Matt Maher.
