The Tuesday Huddle: Real conversations about Scripture, faith, and everyday life.
Where Sunday's Message Meets Everyday Life
The Tuesday Huddle is a midweek conversation with Walnut Hill Church's Rev. Shawn Barkley and Administrator Jessica Waldmann (and sometimes a special guest!) where they revisit Sunday’s sermon and Scripture. There are plenty of laughs and entertaining stories along the way as they look for everyday examples and share practical, approachable ways to live out the message in real life. It’s a relaxed, engaging discussion that listeners can enjoy on the go while at work, in the car, or out for a walk. Please join the conversation!

Ever wonder what the crowd was thinking or hoping when they welcomed Jesus into Jerusalem at the beginning of Holy Week? Were they in awe of a leader they believed would change their political reality? Were they longing for someone to fulfill their ambitions for wealth, happiness, or power?
Join us this week as we take a Palm Sunday look at ambition and the kind of life God and His Son call us to cultivate in the Tuesday Huddle.

This week on the Tuesday Huddle, we explore Jesus’ powerful statement in John 14: “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” It sounds simple—until we truly wrestle with what it means.
Our conversation will take us from the present day all the way back to 325 AD and the Council of Nicaea, weaving in the story of a mysterious sunken basilica and raising deeper questions along the way: Are we climbing the right ladder? And if not, are we setting ourselves up for disappointment—or even despair?
Join us as we connect the dots and dig into a passage that challenges how we think about truth, direction, and what it means to follow Christ.

WHAT'S FEEDING YOUR SOUL?
We may be running a little behind this week… but we still couldn’t skip the Tuesday Huddle 🙌
This time, we’re looking at Jesus’ “I am the bread of life” statement and *BONUS POINTS* it’s our shortest audiogram yet. Nevertheless, we still find time to dive into Scripture, ask the real questions like why are people questioning whether Jesus is legit after they literally saw Him walk on water?!, and wrestle with what kind of “food” actually satisfies.
Take just a little more than 15 minutes on your walk, drive home, or with a cup of afternoon tea to listen. We hope you’ll agree… it packs a punch. 💥

Join us for our Tuesday Huddle as we dive into Jesus’ proclamation in John 10, “I am the Gate.” We’ll explore the power behind all of Jesus’ “I Am” statements, maybe even coin the phrase “Fist-Bump Jesus,” and wrestle with expectations, disappointment, and the biblical meaning of true freedom. Along the way, we promise thoughtful conversation, honest reflection—and plenty of laughs, too!

HOW IS YOUR SOUL? That’s a heavy question…but one we believe Hosea can help us lift up. Please join us for this week’s Audiogram and Podcast as we expand on Shawn’s sermon on the Book of Hosea. Through this powerful passage, we’ll explore timely questions like:
What idols does our society chase instead of God?
What does it truly look like to be spiritually healthy?
Together, Shawn and Hosea help us wrestle with these questions—and discover hope, honesty, and restoration along the way.

Who Needs the Church? Three stories. One powerful answer. In Acts 16, the Gospel reaches across social and cultural boundaries — from a successful merchant to a tormented slave and a hardened jailer — showing that God’s love is for everyone.
In this week's podcast, we’ll dive into what these encounters teach us about the Church’s role in our lives today because when it comes to finding purpose, belonging, and transformation… the truth is, we all need the Church.
