Drop Your Megaphone and the Rocks
Episode description
This week on Beyond Sunday, Josh Hensley is joined by Steve Buttram, Cliff Hines, and special guest Chase Duncan—our newest intern at New Work. The team kicks things off with a challenging (and occasionally uncomfortable) round of “Over It or Into It,” exploring everyday habits that can become idols—like binge-watching TV on Sabbath, obsessing over gear, or reading Christian books more than the Bible. Their honest, often funny, and sometimes convicting responses set the stage for a deeper dive into Sunday’s sermon on Romans 1.
The heart of the conversation centers on the tension between truth and love. They unpack Michael Shearon’s message about how God’s anger is righteous, how idolatry breeds immorality, and how God will eventually give us over to what we worship. Steve vulnerably shares about loving his son while not affirming his lifestyle—a moving example of agape love without compromise. The episode ends with a powerful reminder: everyone is welcome at New Work, but the Gospel always calls us to transformation. It’s a full episode—humble, bold, and full of grace.
