Welcome to Further In, a podcast where Pastor Ben and members of our team take a deeper look at the scripture we studied this week at Passion City Church, D.C., and consider how to apply the truths of God's word to our lives.

All right. We good, Matthew? Leave that in the podcast. We good to go, Matthew? Thumbs up.

Producer Matthew. Producer Matthews, just shoutouts in the beginning of the episode.

We need to get Matthew a microphone so he can chime in on some things.

That'd be awesome. That's what we're, you know, we're saving towards that.

We do have a spare microphone at the table today because Pastor Ben's not here with us.

Yep. Pastor, this is the first further end without Pastor Ben.

Whoa. Rime.

Wow. And, but we're excited because Landon Lacey led the way on Sunday, continuing in this new series.

And so we have John, myself, Jacob, and Landon kind of chatting through Landon's sermon

and kind of go in a special direction, I feel like, with further end this week.

Just a kind of a quick overview for everyone who listens.

Like, as a team, as a staff, we're looking for more and more ways to resource people,

whether you're part of our church, Passion City, or you just listen to our church online.

And so we're always looking for ways to resource people further in is obviously one of those ways.

And one thing as a church that we do,

or we have family groups where we have people gather with a handful of other men or

women or married couples and walk through life together,

encourage each other, practice confession and things like that.

And as we have family groups, my team really has a heart for our church processing our

sermons. I think I'll be the first to admit that I will listen to like an incredible sermon,

whether it's Landon's or Pastor Ben or, you know, someone I love online, like an old Tim Keller sermon, I'll listen to it.
