Wow. Who let us have a podcast? Here's to fifty episodes, and to many more. We hope you get a chance to listen to us reminisce over our first fifty episodes and what they've meant to us. We love you all.

episode 50 / wow

Some of you will love this episode. Some of you will not. (Actually, that could be true about every episode.) In this episode, we discuss Tim Keller's book--The Reason for God. If you've read the book or not, by hitting play on this episode you will hear us talk about what the book covers, our likes and dislikes, our praises and our critiques of what has been considered an essential read among Christians for over ten years.  If you have further thoughts or questions about the book or anything in general, you can message us through our website.  Twitter @FutureFamilyPod | Instagram @futurefamilypodcast

episode 49 / a book review

We have a special friend(-of-the-pod) with us on this episode. You'll get lots of good recommendations, and a few crazy ones. Maybe just one crazy one. Maybe you'll like it, we don't judge. Anyways, you should know it took a lot of work to edit this down to a little under an hour. Please enjoy. Go buy a shirt! It's totally worth it. You can find it on our website. 

episode 48 / recommendations with jojo moss

Well, related to the last episode, this one was short. We discuss how The Lord's Supper, or Communion, or the Eucharist happens in our contexts. Note: we do not necessarily go deep into what The Lord's Supper is (email us for more info on that if you'd like); however, this episode should at least start some conversations and some thinking about why we do it and how we can do better at doing it. If you want more information about this topic, or if you want more info about us, or if you want to buy a shirt (you know you want to), please go to our website at futurefamilypodcast.com Thanks.

episode 47 / the lord's supper

Cody and Tanner go toe to toe in the first episode of our "Sacraments/Ordinances" series. Blake facilitates a conversation on baptism while Cody and Tanner give good -- well, you decide if it is good enough -- insights to how Presbyterians and Baptists view baptism in their context. We'd love to hear your baptism stories or questions. Go to our website and message us any questions, comments, or encouragement you may have! [We have not worked on new intro music, so Tanner put together another last second piece. He calls this one "An SNL type intro."] NOTES: Ask N.T. Wright Anything episode "#50 Icons, praying to saints & dividing over sexuality" around the 22 minute mark is when Wright begins to discuss baptism from an Anglican perspective. PCA position papers on Baptism. Baptist Faith & Message on Baptism.

episode 46 / baptism

Yep, you read that right. Erin H. Moon joins us to talk about liturgy!!! In this episode, we talk about Liturgy in the Church (3:00 min mark), Liturgy outside of the Church (21:00 min mark), and Erin's Lent guide "Memento Mori" (39:00 min mark).  You can hear Erin talk more about her move from Southern Baptist to Anglican fellowship on Jamie Ivy's podcast here.  You can also find Erin's Lent Guide (which we highly recommend) here, AND use promo code "FUTURE" (all caps) for 15% off your purchase of her Lent guide "Memento Mori." [NOTE: The intro music for this episode is quite temporary and was made in a few minutes, so please leave your judgment at home.] Final bit of info -- we have a website! It is futurefamilypodcast.com and you can purchase an amazing shirt there through the 'surprise' tab.

episode 45 / liturgy feat. erin h moon

Here's an episode catching you up on where we've been, and giving you some ideas of what is to come this season! If you don't know by now, WE HAVE A WEBSITE!!! Go to futurefamilypodcast.com and check it out. You'll see a little surprise section where you can purchase a limited run long-sleeve shirt.  We love you all.

episode 44 / we're back (?)

Just in time for the holidays, our yule log episode is just that -- an episode that is just a fire crackling away. Sit back, relax, close your eyes, and enjoy the sounds of a nice fire in a nice fireplace from your nice friends over at the future family podcast.  Merry Christmas! 12:24

yule log / 12:24

Ok, so this episode is nearly the length of the movie we review in it -- Christian Mingle.  You will not want to skip this episode. Even if you have to listen in chunks, it's worth the listen. We take a look at this PureFlix movie and let you know our thoughts on the story, who we would re-cast, and any sequel ideas we have, and more! ENJOY!

ep 43 / a movie review

We jump right back (with no fluff) to our tips for college students to thrive in today's society. If you haven't listened to our first two episodes, do it ASAP when you finish this one. Also, we added a few tips due to the current pandemic and the crazy nature of college during a time such as this. Hopefully our tips allow you to fly high and succeed at everything you do! We love you. We are proud of you. We want you to have a fun time, and stay safe. Make us proud.

episode 42 / college tips pt 3

We're back! And we have a GREAT episode for you. Our amazing friend, Rebekah, stopped by to carry the conversation on "Christians and politics." It's a conversation that is tough to have now, but it was such a good one to talk through. We know you'll enjoy. If you have any questions or want even more resources, reach out to us on Twitter @FutureFamilyPod or Instagram @futurefamilypodcast or email us at futurefamilypodcast@gmail.com We love you.

episode 41 / politics feat. rebekah barfield

This episode (the next in our "Christian Liberties" series) has been in the can for a few weeks. In it, we discuss the music that might have gotten you in trouble as a kid. It may have even cost you money as some of your parents may have broken your CDs. (Who are we kidding? None of our listeners listened to CD's growing up. You're all too young and hip.) Nonetheless, we have a fun conversation about secular music and its drawbacks and/or benefits to Christians. As always, we hope this episode is a fun listen and informative. [If you wish for us to make you a playlist or you want to follow us for our very cool, very smart posts reach out to us - Twitter @FutureFamilyPod | Instagram @futurefamilypodast | Email futurefamilypodcast@gmail.com]

episode 40 / secular music

Just listen. That's all I've got to say. [Also, go to our Instagram (@futurefamilypodcast) or Twitter (@FutureFamilyPod) to learn how we make our coffee.]

episode 39 / foyer coffee

We have all the information you need on marriage, engagement, dating, and being single. You don't have to look anywhere else! (IF you are not into fun/jokes - the main part of the episode starts around the 12:00 mark.) Tune in as we discuss relationships. What more info do you need? -- Follow us on Twitter @FutureFamilyPod / Instagram @futurefamilypodcast and email us @ futurefamilypodcast@gmail.com

episode 38 / relationships

We are joined by the awesome Angie Schuber (who just so happens to be Cody's sister!) to talk about purity culture. Whether you grew up in peak True Love Waits or caught the tail end with all the cliches, this episode is meant for everyone to listen. Maybe treat this like our birds and bees talk. Wait. No, don't. Seriously, this episode - we hope - should lead to better conversations on sexual ethics for Christians. You may be deeply steeped in it or you may be absolutely lost when the topic comes up, please listen and let us (mostly Angie) help you better understand purity culture today. Keep in touch with us on Twitter @FutureFamilyPod / Instagram @futurefamilypodcast / email futurefamilypodcast@gmail.com

episode 37 / true love waits feat. angie schuber

Cody, Blake, and Tanner are three friends from three different Christian backgrounds. They look to have conversations on topics of life, faith, and everything in between. Instead of having heated debates, their conversations are more uplifting and truth seeking though they may disagree sometimes. We hope you continue the conversations.
