Going Deeper Podcast

Why do we get so caught up in numbers—especially in ministry? In 1 Chronicles 21, King David orders a census that seems innocent enough, but God sees it differently. The fallout is massive, yet from the wreckage comes the foundation for something holy: the future site of the Temple. In this episode, we unpack what David’s story teaches us about trust, pride, and the hidden dangers of measuring success the wrong way.

On this episode of the podcast we discuss the idea of foolishness, and how what we see as wisdom, God sees as foolishness and vice versa. The conversation is full of seeming contradiction, but God’s wisdom far outweighs ours we see how God takes our way of thinking and flips it upside down to reveal an even more powerful display of his grace and mercy.

In this episode we dive into some of the surprising ways God fulfills his promises, drawing parallels between biblical narratives and our own lives.
