Stoop Theology S1 Episode 4: Is it ok for Christians to smoke weed?
Now that weed is legal where I live, is there anything wrong with taking part? Is it any different than drinking alcohol? This conversation breaks down how to think through questions surrounding substances and our bodies.

From faith and doubt to culture, justice, relationships, and everyday struggles, we explore what it looks like to wrestle with life and belief—like neighbors talking it out on a stoop.

Stoop Theology S1 Episode 2: Do Christians Follow the Bible—or Just the Parts They Like?
Christians are often accused of picking and choosing which Bible commands to follow. In this episode of Stoop Theology, we ask whether that’s hypocrisy—or whether Jesus actually changes how the Bible is meant to be read. From Old Testament laws to New Testament faith, we explore why Christianity isn’t selective—it’s Christ-centered.
