  • Faith and Reason: Why Christianity Welcomes Evidence | FAITH IN CONTEXT Ep.26
    Aug 25 2025

    A common misconception is that Christians reject science, evidence, and reason. But history tells a different story. Many scientific pioneers — from Isaac Newton to Gregor Mendel — were people of deep faith, convinced that studying creation was a way of thinking God’s thoughts after Him.

    In this episode of Faith in Context, Jason unpacks the harmony between faith and logic, showing how Scripture calls us to love God with our minds (Matthew 22:37), how the resurrection and the reliability of the Bible stand on evidence, and why honest inquiry is always welcome in Christianity.

    Faith is not blind — it’s built on reason, history, and hope.

  • Saved by Grace, Not Good Behavior | FAITH IN CONTEXT Ep.25
    Aug 18 2025

    In our last episode, we exposed the exhaustion of performance Christianity—the constant pressure to earn God’s love through good behavior. In this episode, we focus on the word that changes everything: grace. Discover how the Bible defines grace, how Jesus embodied it, why Paul defended it so fiercely, and how it frees us from striving and into real relationship with God. Whether you’re weary from trying to be “good enough” or curious about what makes Christianity different from rule-keeping religion, this conversation will point you to the life-changing truth: we are saved by grace, not by performance.

  • Breaking Free from Performative Christianity: Living for God’s Approval, Not People’s Applause | FAITH IN CONTEXT Ep.24
    Aug 11 2025

    Are we truly following Jesus… or just playing the part?

    In this episode of Faith In Context, Jason Graham unpacks Matthew 6 and the subtle trap of performative Christianity — living for human approval instead of God’s reward. Through biblical teaching, personal stories, and insights from voices like C.S. Lewis, Tim Keller, and Brennan Manning, you’ll discover:

    • The dangers of image-driven faith

    • The root causes of performance-based religion

    • How to rest in grace instead of striving for approval

    • Practical ways to live out authentic discipleship

    Whether you’re burned out, hungry for something real, or simply curious how to deepen your walk with Christ, this conversation will help you stop playing the part and start living the life.

  • What If We're Doing Church Wrong? | FAITH IN CONTEXT Ep.23
    Aug 4 2025

    What if we’ve misunderstood the mission? What if the Church’s calling isn’t to build an earthly utopia—but to be faithful witnesses on our way home?

    In this episode, we challenge the idea that Christians are here to conquer culture or establish dominion. Instead, we explore the radical, upside-down way of Jesus: carrying the cross, revealing a heavenly kingdom, and extending grace in a broken world.

    Jesus didn’t try to overthrow governments—He transformed hearts. He didn’t campaign for power—He walked among the outcasts, spoke truth, and offered eternal hope. Maybe we’re called to do the same.

    This conversation re-centers us on what really matters: making disciples, not building empires… pointing people to a kingdom that cannot be shaken.
