THE FLIP/SIDE

with Curt Harlow

#122: Chris Brown on the importance of over-communication, weighing opinions, and preaching grace.

June 24, 2021

If you had to do 2020 over again, what would you do? Pastor Chris Brown is upfront and honest with what he’d do; he’d resign before the world turned upside down! The truth of the matter is, 2020 wasn’t easy on any of us, and that includes our pastors. So, since we can’t go back in time to have a do-over, what can we do? Tune in to this week’s FlipSide to hear what Pastor Chris Brown learned this past year and why we as the body of Christ should now more than ever be preaching the grace of the Gospel.

#121: Alli Worthington on burnt out leaders, Moses, and the benefit of making mistakes.

June 17, 2021

2020 did a lot of damage. No one need’s an explanation as to why. In that time of uncertainty, the leaders of the Church went into crisis-mode and worked harder than ever to keep their churches thriving and healthy. There’s only one problem— now all of those leaders are burnt out. On today’s episode, author and entrepreneur Alli Worthington brings us incredible insight on how leaders can overcome burnout after such a difficult year and what she’s currently studying in the Bible.

#120: Jason Caine on Jesus glowing and his hot take on transfiguration

June 10, 2021

Mark 9 is an interesting chapter with a lot to unpack. We see Jesus transfigured before the disciples on a mountaintop and revealed to be the Messiah, Him predicting his death, and healing a possessed boy all within a few verses. So, what do all of these events mean? Why are they so important to pay attention to? In this episode of the FlipSide enjoy a deep dive into this chapter with Pastor Jason Caine, where he discusses everything from why Jesus glows to a hot take on the transfiguration miracle.

#119: Andrew McCourt on the meaning of the Messiah, Peter, and great revelations.

June 3, 2021

What would it have been like to experience the revelation of Jesus as the Messiah? Would we have believed it? Would we walk with Him, or run away and deny Him, like Peter did? It’s so easy to hem and haw while we have the time to theorize about what we’d do, when we often forget the stories we’re reading are about real-life, complicated people. Join a fruitful discussion with Pastors Curt and Andrew about the meaning of the Messiah, why Peter was so important, and why Jesus kept his identity as Messiah a secret.

#118: Miles McPherson on sticking to the Gospel & honoring what we have in common.

May 27, 2021

In today’s political climate the focus is on division. How is your neighbor different than you? How does that seemingly impact your life? Why are you right and they’re wrong? It is an exhausting and pointless circle that does nothing except keep us from honoring each other as brothers and sisters in Christ. In a special interview with Miles McPherson, engage in a critical discussion on race & politics and how we can come out of those conversations filled with hope.

#118: Mark Clark on Interpreting The Bible, Walking Through Fire, & Thinking Again

May 20, 2021 • Curt Harlow & Mark Clark

Mark Clark is one of the most real, down-to-earth, tell-it-how-it-is communicators in this day and age. What the text says, he teaches. In this episode of The Flip Side, Pastors Curt Harlow and Mark Clark dive deep into 1 Peter 1 and explore how we all need to know the suffering and the walking through the fire will come. It's not God's punishment. Plus, they do an interesting thought experiment on the power of thinking again. What if we paused to just listen, and think again about our assumptions about how the world works.

#117: Lisa Thompson on The Calling of the Twelve and Questioning the Miracles

May 13, 2021

So you're telling me Jesus, the strange man who just appeared out of nowhere, goes up to some dudes working and says, "Follow me", and they do?! That's submission right there. On this episode of The Flip Side, Pastors Curt Harlow and Lisa Thompson sit down to dissect chapter 3 of The Book of Mark. They riff on the calling of the twelve and how crazy it was that the disciples just followed Jesus when he called them. Plus, they dig into the back-to-back-to-back miracles Jesus performed in search of one thing – why?

#116: Dena Davidson on Modern Day Discipleship & Intellectual Christianity

May 6, 2021 • Curt Harlow & Dena Davidson

In the early church, discipleship was a hot topic and it meant more than just going to church. Being a disciple meant letting Jesus's words, lives, and teachings permeate every part of your life. But is that still happening today? Some would say absolutely it is and others disagree. In episode 116 of the FlipSide, Pastor Curt Harlow sits down with Dena Davidson to unpack what it means to be a disciple in 2021, practical steps you can take to become a disciple, and the intellectual branch of Christianity.

#115: James Powell on Humility in Leadership, Knowing What You Don't Know, and Hope in times of Adv

April 29, 2021

We wonder what the donkey that Jesus rode into Jerusalem on was thinking. From his perspective, everyone is cheering and laying down palm branches, for him! That donkey thinks he's the man. But what James Powell helps us see as leaders and Christians in today's episode is as that donkey was only special because he was carrying Jesus. Likewise, we have to make sure in life and business that we're carrying Jesus on our shoulders and without him, we're just boring old donkeys.

April 22, 2021 • Chad Veach & Curt Harlow

April 15, 2021

A pivotal question in the Christian life – what to do when you're full of faith but not sure how to live it out? Reading the Bible gets you excited and passionate, but living it out on a day-to-day basis is a different story. Join Pastor Michael Metcalf and Curt Harlow as they try to answer this big question and dive into the Book of Mark Chapter 2.

#112: Andrew McCourt on the Essentials of Sharing Your Faith, The Last Words of Christ, & The Triune

April 8, 2021

In today's episode of the FlipSide, we take a deep dive into Matthew 28:19-20 to understand what it means to share your faith and how to live out The Great Commission. The Great Commission calls us to spread the Gospel to all the nations, but how can we actually do that? Sure mission trips are important and they help, but you can live out the Great Commission in your everyday life no matter where you live.
