Episode 24 - What is Christ's Call to Us
What does it look like to represent Jesus? It doesn’t mean wearing Christian apparel and walking around like a billboard for Jesus. It looks as simple as living the way He called us to live. This means showing love not only to the skaters at the park you get along with, but also to the ones who…

Episode 23 - Jesus' Death and Resurrection
If Jesus never rose from the dead, He would have just been a nice guy who did some crazy miracles. If He never came back, these disciples would have never died for their faith and we would have no reason to believe in Jesus! There would be no Christianity if He didn’t live out His wildest of...

Episode 22 - Birth and Life of Jesus
When you think of a king, you think of the big guy in charge on his gold throne with everything served to him on a silver platter. What if I told you our king was born in a barn? And instead of constantly being served, he was the one actually serving everyone else. What if I told you he didn’t…

Episode 21 - Who is Jesus
1 Corinthians tells us that the only foundation to life can be found in Jesus Christ. But who is Jesus? A good man, a prophet, a teacher, the son of God? All good answers, but do they fully grasp who Jesus really is? So to answer a complex question a simply as possible; Jesus is God’s perfect…

Episode 20 - Consequences of Sin
The consequences of sin can be summed up by one word: death. Sin severely harms us as it separates us from God and can even lead us to cause others to suffer that same separation. No matter how big or how small the sin is it results in the same consequences that effect us both in life and…

Episode 19 - How Does God Feel About Sin
Sin always over promises and always under delivers. It continues to promise us happiness, fulfillment, identity, purpose, and that is why God hates it. God hates that sin deceives us into believing we are being lead to satisfaction, when in reality we are left alone filled with shame and guilt.…

Episode 18 - The Origin of Sin
How did sin originate? What caused a separation between humanity and God? Why do we continually repeat this over and over and over again? Things don’t look as different as we think between us today and the first two people God created. Continue to pray for Derek’s recovery. For more information…

Episode 17 - What is Sin
We often choose to live life by our own terms in our own ways. Little do we know that “going our own way” or “following our own path” is how the prophet Isaiah describes sin. Jesus describes sin ranging from the extremes of murder to the simplicity of calling someone a fool. What these…

Episode 15 - Comparing God to Us
Defining words like perfection and holiness it is hard not to include God in that description. But what do those words actually mean? If we conclude that God is the only sum of what it is to be perfect and is all things holy, what does He mean when He calls us to be holy as He is holy? Is that…

Episode 14 - What is the Trinity
The word “trinity” may not be found anywhere in the Bible, yet it’s a word that often comes up when discussing Christianity. More specifically it is used to help explain the nature of God. So what does it mean for us when we refer to God as one distinct being that is made of three different…

Episode 13 - The Character of God
For most people they will avoid ever approaching God or pursuing Him because they feel like they’re inadequate. They’ll stand on the sidelines of “Christianity” afraid to step in because they’re worried they aren’t good enough to do so, or that they won’t be accepted by God because of their past...

Episode 12 - Who is God
God is a mystery. For most of us it is hard to simply describe who He is exactly. Part of that reason is because God is beyond our understanding. Honestly, if we could simply understand everything about God, would He be worth worshipping? Probably not, and the same goes for the opposite because…

Episode 11 - How Do We Study the Bible
The Bible is truly unlike any other book. It’s actually a living and active book that can speak to us in completely unique ways. Although that is true, a lot of us don’t know how or where to start. In skateboarding we have pro video parts, trick tips, and friends who can show us how to learn new...

Episode 9 - Is Scripture Still Relevant
While there was literally nothing, before the creation of the world, the heavens, stars, or our universe, God existed. This was the beginning of the world that we're apart of and where our story began. Even though the Bible has technically already been written and “finished” a couple thousand…

Episode 8 - Can the Bible be Trusted
For most people, they have never given the Bible a chance because there is a fear that exists with the uncertainty, or lack of confidence, that they can put all of their trust and faith in it. No matter whatever someone else has experienced proving the validity of God’s word, most of us won’t…

Episode 6 - What is the Bible
Life isn’t so different than skateboarding in the dark. It can feel pretty chaotic sometimes, like we don’t know where we are or how to get there. Just when we feel like we have it all together, we hit a pebble we couldn’t see and get tossed flat on our face. One of the many purposes the Bible…

Episode 5 - The Meaning of Life
We all have the desire to live out our calling, but figuring out what that calling is seems to be the question most people ask in life. What is it that I want to do with my life? What was I created to do? What brings me the most fulfilment? Everyone is searching for something that makes their…

Episode 4 - Why Search For Truth
“Clips or it didn’t happen.” We'd be surprised if you haven't heard that saying? Anyone can be quick to say that they kickflipped a 28 stair, bombed a massive hill without powersliding, dropped in switch on the over-vert section blindfolded with no clothes on, or wrestled that security guard to…

Episode 3 - Why Were We Created
Have you ever actually taken the time to look at your skateboard, your wheels, bearings, trucks, even something as simple as the kingpin and ask the question, "why was this made the way it was?” You see, most things in life have a very specific purpose for why they were created. Our lives are the...
