Welcome to "The Big C Church," where we confront the sobering reality of declining seriousness in our faith communities—particularly in tithing, generous giving, and support for those in need. Today, our panel will unpack why the church's commitment to biblical stewardship seems to be waning and what it means for ministries and people relying on our help.

Welcome to the podcast. Today we’re talking about something many of us quietly carry — guilt. Those moments we wish we could redo, the words we wish we hadn’t said, the choices that still weigh on our hearts. But the good news of the Gospel is that guilt was never meant to define us. In Christ, forgiveness is real, grace is deeper than our mistakes, and freedom is possible. Today we’re exploring how to release guilt and step into the redemption God has already given us.

Not after we “pray it away.” But right in the middle of it. If you’ve ever wondered: Why do I still feel anxious if I trust God? Does surrender actually work? Can peace be real for me? This episode is for you. Join Fritz and special guest Chris Tompson. Peace isn’t the absence of storms. It’s the presence of Jesus in them.

This episode explores a surprising part of anxiety recovery: when anxiety lifts or you begin to feel calm, it can feel unfamiliar — even scary. The hosts explain that after long periods of worry and stress, your brain gets so used to scanning for threats that the absence of anxiety feels strange and unsettling. They call this experience panicogenic relaxation. We as Christians call it surrender. He alone can fill the anxiety void.

"Watch This" – Explaining the Bible with Clarity and Power When someone says, “Watch this,” it usually means something important is about to happen. But when Greg says it, It grabs your attention. Now imagine applying that phrase to the Bible—the living Word of God. Every time we open it, God is saying, “Watch this. Watch what I’ve done, watch what I’m doing, and watch what I will do.”
info_outlineBeing single as a Christian is not a waiting room for marriage—it’s a season of purpose, growth, and deepening one’s relationship with Christ. Whether someone is content in singleness or open to mingling, the key is to navigate this phase with wisdom, faith, and a Christ-centered mindset.
1. Singleness: A Season of Purpose
- Embracing God’s Timing – 1 Corinthians 7:32-34 highlights the blessings of singleness, emphasizing undivided devotion to the Lord. Instead of seeing it as a lack, recognize it as an opportunity to grow spiritually, serve, and discover purpose.
- Building Character – This is the time to develop qualities like patience, kindness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23) that will prepare you for any future relationship.
- Fulfilling Kingdom Work – Many great biblical figures, including Paul, thrived in their singleness by focusing on God's mission.
2. Mingling with a Kingdom Mindset
- Guarding Your Heart – Proverbs 4:23 reminds us to protect our hearts. Casual dating without intention can lead to unnecessary heartbreak. Approach relationships prayerfully and with discernment.
- Yoked in Faith – 2 Corinthians 6:14 warns against being unequally yoked. If mingling, seek someone who shares your faith and values.
- Godly Standards Over Worldly Pressure – The world pushes dating based on attraction and emotions, but God calls us to prioritize character, faith, and purpose alignment.
3. Preparing for What’s Next (If Marriage Is the Goal)
- Become Who You’re Looking For – Instead of just seeking the "right one," focus on becoming the person God has called you to be.
- Pray for Guidance – James 1:5 encourages us to seek wisdom. Ask God to lead your steps when considering a relationship.
- Community & Accountability – Surround yourself with godly counsel, mentors, and Christian friends who will support and guide you in this journey.
