Welcome to the Practicology Podcast

Putting Theology Into Practice

There’s enough disorder in life without disconnecting what you believe from how you live. To make an impact, your faith must be integrated. The Practicology Podcast is bridging the gap between Scripture and every day life because the Bible belongs not only beside the stack of commentaries but also next to the pile of dirty dishes.

We want to help you connect glorious truth about God to the stubborn realities of life — what could be more exciting?

What happens if we have failed to follow God’s will in the past? Are we condemned to wander the spiritual wastelands for the rest of our days? No, not when our God is the God of faithful love, who “shows sinners the way.” Psalm 25 teaches us that failure is not final with God, that it is the character of God to lead his people, and that a humble heart will once again experience the guidance of God.


Scriptures Referenced:Psa 25; Isa 50:4-5; Isa 66:2

PP123 A Theology of the Body

Gospel, Sex

Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 20:54 — 28.7MB)

Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Amazon Music | Android | Email | RSS | More

[This episode touches on some sensitive subjects and may not be appropriate for younger listeners.] Secular culture feeds us so many lies, and one of its biggest areas of deception and confusion today is that of sex. On the one hand, the culture seems obsessed with the human body. Yet at the same time, they talk as if what we do with our bodies doesn’t really matter. As a result, the culture cheapens sex. The gospel gives us a deeper and more meaningful view of the body – and consequentially, a more sacred view of sex.

PP122 On Reading the Bible Imaginatively & The Chosen

Bible Study, Christian Living

Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 20:31 — 37.6MB)

The imagination gets a bad rap sometimes in the church. As if it’s something to be treated with suspicion. But the truth is that the imagination is a God-given faculty that is crucial in the realms of daily life, science, and faithful Bible reading. In this episode we hear a biblical defense of using our imagination, and Mike and Matthew demonstrate how it enriches our time in God’s Word when we use it to that end. Watching The Chosen is not the only way for the Bible to come alive!


Scriptures Referenced: Exo 13:8; Col 3:2; 2Cor 4:18; Joh 1:35-42; Psa 113; Dan 1
