Would Jesus have a social media account?

Host Pastor Mike Bellanti welcomes Nicole Smith, Director of Missions at Northbrook Church, as they thoughtfully consider the question: “Would Jesus have a social media account?” Their conversation delves into whether social media can be a meaningful mission field, if it fuels outrage and oversimplifies activism, and revisits the timeless inquiry: what would Jesus do? Together, they unpack the unique challenges and risks social media presents for Christians.

How Do We Disagree Well in a Polarized World?

In a world that craves certainty and clean lines, the apostle Paul reminds us that “for now, we see in a mirror dimly.” Not falsely. Not without meaning. But partially. In this episode, host Pastor Mike Bellanti is joined by Jason Esposito, Lead Pastor of Crossway Church, to explore what it looks like to hold deep convictions without hardening our hearts, to listen without losing our values, and to disagree without dehumanizing one another.
Together, they step into the faithful tension between black-and-white answers and honest humility, asking how we can stay curious, compassionate, and grounded in truth in a polarized world. Because wisdom may not be found in winning arguments, but in staying human as we seek truth side by side.
