Do Not Be Taken Captive by Empty PhilosophyÂ
Psychology has had a heavy impact on American culture for decades. Then, through the 1960s, 70s, and 80s, it steadily crept into the church. Today, it has a deep foothold in the church. And I want to say this carefully, but plainly: one of the most subtle forms of heresy to ever hit the American church is psychological theory being absorbed into Christian ministry as if it were neutral, safe, and compatible with the faith.
Not because every observation made by anyone in the field is false. Not because the body doesn’t matter. Not because Christians have never been helped by conversations with professionals. But because the most dangerous part of psychology is the part that claims to explain what man is, why man is the way he is, and how man changes. That’s not lab science. That’s not medicine. That’s a philosophy of life—and very often, a rival religion.
My Journey into Biblical Counseling
Many people know the International Association of Biblical Counselors (IABC), but fewer know the personal story behind how I came to love and serve this ministry. As the current Board President and Executive Director, I wanted to take a moment to share a bit of my journey — not to spotlight myself, but to invite a conversation with those who care deeply about Christ-centered, Scripture-sufficient soul care.Â
If you’ve ever wondered where IABC fits historically, or if you share a desire to “return to the Word,” I invite you to listen and join the conversation.
“Preach the word… fulfill your ministry.” (2 Timothy 4:2–5)

The Whole Counsel of God
In today’s world, many people only hear part of God’s Word, but God has given us the full picture. Why do pastors choose to preach through the entire Bible? Because every part of Scripture is important for our faith and growth.
In this episode, Pastor Jeff explores why it’s so vital to teach the whole Bible. From Paul’s example of faithfully teaching “the whole counsel of God” (Acts 20:27) to Ezra’s careful reading and explaining of Scripture (Nehemiah 8:8), we learn that a healthy church is built on all of God’s truth, not just parts of it.
If you want to grow in your faith and have a deeper understanding of God’s Word, this episode will encourage you to embrace the whole Bible. It’s time for the church to hear the full counsel of God.

Knowing Christ Our Greatest Priority
What’s the #1 priority in your life—and what does your answer reveal about what truly motivates you?
In this two-part teaching through Philippians 3:7–14, Pastor Jeff Christianson calls us back to the highest priority of the Christian life: knowing God. The apostle Paul says everything else becomes “loss” compared to “the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord” (Philippians 3:8).
In this episode, we unpack why knowing the Lord is the supreme treasure, how we come to the Father only through the righteousness of Christ, and why real discipleship always flows from abiding—never from anxious busy-ness.
This teaching is a fresh call to count all things loss, lay hold of Christ, forget what lies behind, and press toward the upward call—so we can live a visibly resurrected life in a dead world. Â
Standing Strong in the Lord as a Christian Home
In this final episode of our Family God’s Way series, Pastor Jeff explores two pillars essential to every Christian household: the wisdom of God and the grace of God. Drawing from Proverbs 3:5–6 and Acts 20:32, we discover that families cannot flourish on human insight or human strength alone. Instead, the Lord invites us to trust Him with all our hearts, acknowledge Him in every matter, and receive the supernatural strength that comes through His grace.
If you long for a home guided by God’s wisdom and strengthened by His grace, this episode will point you back to the One who faithfully leads, empowers, and builds every household that trusts in Him.
