Our culture is constantly changing around us. A new story, new song, or new idea is being tweeted, posted or published every other minute. As the world changes rapidly around us, how do we respond? How do we stay rooted in our faith amidst a myriad of conversations? How do we stay grounded in truth when so much in the media is manipulated? How do we talk about our beliefs in a culture that may not feel the same way?

Conversations about faith and culture meet right here on Teaology, the podcast. Teaology is all about communities coming together through conversation. We find common ground when we communicate well.

In the second episode of Season 4, Maya addresses the rising fascination with wellness trends within Christian communities, encouraging a deeper examination of whether these movements conflict with or complement biblical teachings on health and wholeness. With the rise of self-care and personal wellness as cultural priorities, where does the biblical understanding of selflessness, sacrifice, and serving others fit in? Are we elevating self-care to an idol?

In the first episode of Season 4, Maya brings attention to the deeper purpose of New Year's goals, suggesting that instead of fleeting resolutions, Christians should prioritize spiritual formation and a commitment to fidelity in their walk with God. Maya explores traditional Christian practices (like scripture reading, sabbath, fasting, community, stillness) that are making a comeback in some circles, and how these ancient rituals can deepen our connection to God today.
