Join Tim and his ten-year-old son Elliot as they dive into a month of activism—raising money, writing letters, marching for libraries and endangered birds, and quietly standing in solidarity at a Gaza vigil.

Along the way, they explore what activism actually means, how faith might connect with social action, and whether small acts of kindness and courage can make a difference.

With honesty, curiosity, and a few painted pebbles along the way, Tim and Elliot reflect on what it’s like to step into activism together—when one of you is still learning what activism even is, and the other grew up in a faith that never really talked about it.

Join Tim and his ten-year-old son Elliot as they reflect on four very different children’s Bibles. From garden fruit and floods to talking donkeys and fat kings, they wander through ancient stories that are sometimes inspiring, sometimes confusing, and sometimes just plain weird.

Along the way, they wrestle with big questions: Is this real? What does it mean for a story to be true? And what makes the Bible different from other books?

With curiosity, honesty, and a few jokes along the way, Tim and Elliot explore what it means to read the Bible together—when one of you has years of Bible baggage, and the other’s never even heard of Samson.

Join Tim and his ten-year-old son Elliot as they spend a month exploring creativity as a spiritual practice.

Join Tim and his ten-year-old son Elliot as they explore hospitality—not just the kind that involves offering someone a cup of tea, but the kind that reaches toward others, the earth, God, and even passing strangers.

Over the month they cook for friends, plant hedges for birds and bees, paint animal faces onto pebbles for strangers, and attempt listening prayers in a den made of blankets and fairy lights. Along the way, they discover that hospitality can be gentle, creative, a bit chaotic—and sometimes as simple as making space for one another.

Join Tim and his ten-year-old son Elliot as they spend a month experimenting with the ancient—and surprisingly tricky—practice of Sabbath. From pancakes and parakeets to muddy walks and fake candles, they explore what it means to slow down, let go of productivity, and make space for rest, reflection, and reconnection.

Join Tim and his ten-year-old son Elliot as they begin their Homegrown Faith journey with a month exploring gratitude. From painting pebbles and sniffing sage to watching ants and stumbling through an awkward dinner prayer, they discover that gratitude isn’t always easy—but it might be as simple as learning to notice what’s already here.

Listen in as they reflect on bugs, sunsets, tie-dye feathers, and the quiet challenge of saying thank you—even when you don’t really feel like it.
