  • Episode #244: A Conversation about Trees
    Feb 11 2026

    In this week's episode, Pastor Kevin sits down with Shane Kleiman, a member of SSPP who first attended while a student at Michigan Tech and oversees the Media Booth.

    While at Tech, Shane earned two Master's degrees - one in Forestry and the other in "Geographic Information Science" (GIS). But Shane's passion for nature extends beyond his professional life.

    In this conversation we talk about humanity's relationship to Creation. Shane brings real-world examples from his experience working in the forests of the U.P. and around the country.

    Listen and consider your own relationship to Creation. What aspects of Creation point you back in gratefulness to your Creator? Which aspects are difficult to navigate faithfully? We'll explore these same questions as we seek to live as the human creatures God created us to be.

    As always we hope you enjoy it.

  • Episode #243: A Conversation about Purpose
    Feb 4 2026

    In this week's episode, Aaron and Kevin have a conversation about our God given purpose, and how even that has been broken because of our fall into sin.

    Because we are separated from our purpose, we end up stepping out of line, we get frustrated with others who we don't think are doing a good job, and in general, there's much conflict.

    If you've ever wondered about what we should do when we disagree with government, or spouses, or our parents, then this conversation will be helpful as you think through those relationships.

    As always we hope you enjoy it.

  • Episode #242: A Conversation about Being Separated from God
    Jan 28 2026

    In this week’s episode, Aaron and Kevin have a conversation about the effects of being separated from God. When sin enters the world, it puts humanity in an oppositional position to God. Yet, God still continues to come searching after Adam and Eve, asking “Where are you?”

    In this conversation, Aaron and Kevin talk about some of the practical results of this separation and how it turns into blame, anger, and hostility between people and God.

    Perhaps you’ve had interactions with people (maybe online) where you see something they post about a social issue in very strong language, and you sense yourself beginning to craft a particular image of those people because of their viewpoint. There is a lot of hostility and blaming that takes place in these kinds of environments. The guys help us to think through how we should and should not react to these situations.

    As always, we hope that you will hear something in this conversation that inspires you to start another conversation with someone else about Jesus.

    We hope you enjoy it!
