#37 January 28, 2026 - Fun Things to do in Atlanta this Week

Hiya and welcome back to the City on Purpose Podcast. In this episode, we’re easing out of an icy weekend and into a packed stretch of winter plans—perfect for staying warm, connected, and inspired as temperatures dip into the teens. We kick things off with a roundup of what’s happening around town, from trivia night and brewery meetups to live theater, adoration with St. Catherine’s 20s & 30s, a Galentine’s cocktail experience, and a look ahead to the upcoming Build With Christ AI event in March. Our Featured Find takes you to Chai Pani in Decatur, a vibrant favorite serving up bold Indian flavors, crave-worthy okra, and the perfect chai to end your meal. We also highlight meaningful job opportunities with Christ Covenant Church and eCatholic for those discerning a new role or a fresh way to use their gifts. Plus, we share an Honest to God episode that reframes holiness as a life of grace rather than a checklist, and wrap up with thoughtful sermon insights from Fr. Mike Schmitz, Monsignor Frank McNamee, and Passion City Church—each inviting us to trust God’s slow, faithful work, let go of what holds us back, and surrender more fully to His purpose. Whether you’re bundling up at home or heading out for the weekend, this episode offers a steady mix of faith, culture, and community to carry you through the week.
