Why has singing grown weak in so many churches—and what can be done to recover it? Host Adam Triplett dives into these questions and more with Scott Brown, author of the new book, The Family That Sings. Drawing from Scripture and pastoral experience, Scott explains why God’s people are called to be a singing people—from Genesis to Revelation—and how singing serves as a powerful tool for teaching, admonishing, and shaping the church. They address men who say, “I can’t sing,” calling all Christians to lift their voices in every season—even in suffering—and charge parents, led by fathers, to teach their children to praise the Lord through song. Our goal should be this—to restore strong, joyful singing in both church and home. Buy the book here: https://churchandfamilylife.com/products/69b30dbf6a8daf78584b4538
What can an F-16 fighter pilot teach us about the Christian life? Hosts Scott Brown and Jason Dohm sit down with Phill Cochran—former fighter pilot and longtime pastor—to discuss his new book, Lessons Learned at the Speed of Sound. Drawing from real experiences in high-pressure flight, Phill shares vivid illustrations that point to deeper spiritual realities—discipline, perseverance, warning, and trust. From “tightening your G-suit” to avoiding the “death spiral,” this conversation shows how God uses pressure to shape His people and prepare them to live faithfully with eternity in view.
Why are more people diagnosed, medicated, and labeled than ever before—yet no better off? Hosts Scott Brown and Jason Dohm speak with biblical counselor Greg Gifford about his book, Lies My Therapist Told Me. Addressing the confusion at the heart of modern mental health, Gifford exposes how secular psychology replaces repentance with diagnosis and promotes a “therapeutic” worldview that often undermines biblical truth. From the dangers of identity shaped by disorder to the relational fallout of unbiblical “boundaries,” this episode calls Christians back to the sufficiency of Scripture—and the only path to true healing.
God made men and women different — and truly understanding their distinctions is key to a healthy marriage. Hosts Scott Brown and Jason Dohm break this down with guest Michael Foster. They discuss why men often carry burdens silently, why women tend to communicate more contextually, and how a woman’s cyclical hormonal reality differs from a man’s more stable pattern. Along the way, they unpack “disappointment dynamics” in early marriage, the temptation to despise or judge one another, and why learning to live with “understanding” is essential (1 Pet. 3:7). Their takeaway: embrace God’s design, and your home will be stronger for it.
Growing up, Jeff craved affirmation from his hardworking, athletic father — a man who rarely showed affection. After being cut from one junior high sports team, after another, he found his place when his dad brought home a guitar from Western Auto. Music quickly became Jeff’s world. Fronting Louisiana garage bands, his talent as a songwriter led to record deals and touring opportunities with major acts like Kansas, Chicago, Kenny Loggins, the<span class="NormalTextRun SCXW70319847 BCX0" data-ccp-paras
the last century, churches around the globe have traded the biblical doctrine of family life for worldly pragmatism. This change has led to broken homes and dysfunctional families. To reverse course, the next generation must understand and reclaim what God created the family to be. Hosts Scott Brown and Jason Dohm discuss a new catechism designed to help families in this quest. Using a simple question-and-answer format, it gives robust but concise definitions of what a family is and how God designed the home to function. Foundational Scripture verses are given for each topic, along with family discussion questions and a suggested hymn and memory verse.
Justin grew up in rural Tennessee, working tobacco fields with his father. He loved laboring outdoors with his dad, yet his mom took him and his siblings to church, where Justin heard the Gospel. Around 12, he answered an altar call and was baptized—but in his teen years struggled with his faith. Seeing his younger brother’s own anguish over salvation, Justin knew he had to get right with God. Confessing his sins, Justin was rebaptized. John Piper’s sermons on Romans deepened his grasp of sovereign grace, and in time he committed his life to pastoral ministry. Husband to Tilly and father of three, Justin serves as elder at Grace Baptist Church in Hartsville, Tennessee.
Scripture declares that civil rulers are to be “God’s ministers . . . for good” (Rom. 13:4). But what does this mean, in practice? Hosts Scott Brown and Jason Dohm discuss the answer with pastor James Baird. In his new book, King of Kings, Baird explains that every ruler—in every nation throughout history—is required to “be wise . . . [and] serve the Lord with fear” (Ps. 2:10-11). And this doesn’t mean advancing some vague notion of “good,” but what God decrees as “good” in His righteous laws, as summarized in the Ten Commandments. To put the matter simply—all civil governments must promote Christianity as the only true religion. <span class="EOP SCXW128803907 BCX0" data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559738":180,"335559739":0,"335559740":240,"469777462":[360],"469777927":[0],"469777928":[1]}" style="-webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; font-size: 12.5pt; li
