We’re re-releasing one of our most popular episodes—Episode 13: Did Jesus Drink Wine? With Pastor David—because some truths are worth hearing twice. Or ten times.

This episode gets to the heart of a phrase many of us used to justify the habit: “But Jesus drank wine.” It’s not just the name of our podcast—it was a story that kept us stuck in a nightly-ish drinking cycle.

So today, join us in the studio as they welcome a very special guest: Meade’s pastor, David Walters, who joins us as our resident biblical scholar to tackle the burning question:

Did Jesus really drink wine—and does it matter?

David bravely and graciously unpacks this question and so many more, including:

• What does Scripture actually say about wine and drinking?

• What does it mean to “take our thoughts captive”?

• Why is the heart mentioned over 800 times in the Bible—and what does that have to do with the lies we believe?

• What are false idols, and how do they relate to alcohol or anything else we turn to for comfort?

• How do we uncover the deeper truth beneath the stories that keep us stuck?

• And yes… what do kids and CrossFit have to do with any of this?

This episode is packed with spiritual depth, practical wisdom, and powerful applications for anyone on the journey to freedom—from alcohol, or anything else taking up too much space in your life.

And don’t miss the end of the episode—this week’s “tiny TINA” might just be the most brilliant yet.

Whether you’re new to the pod or you’ve heard this one before, hit play with fresh ears. Because this might be the replay your heart needs right now.
