Friends In The Word
Friends In The Word is a Christian podcast where two friends open the Bible together and help each other and their listeners, apply God’s Word to everyday life.
Hosted by Cyndi Weeks and Jen Pam, each episode blends biblical teaching, theological depth, and real-life application in a way that seeks to be practical and stirring.
With recurring segments like “Big Fat Word of the Week” (breaking down rich theological terms like aseity, effectual calling, and depravity) and “Do You Understand What You’re Reading?”, the podcast equips listeners to grow in biblical literacy, think deeply about Scripture, and live faithfully in a modern world.
You’ll hear honest conversations about topics like:
• Christian living in a Romans 1 culture
• Evangelism and everyday faithfulness
• Sin, sanctification, and spiritual growth
• Biblical womanhood and godliness
• Encouragement, friendship, and church life
Whether you’re a seasoned believer or just starting to read your Bible, Friends In The Word invites you to slow down, open your Bible, and think deeply about what God has said, together.
If you love theology, Bible study podcasts, Christian discipleship, and practical application of Scripture, this podcast is for you!

Episode 44: Let's Just Call It What It Is...
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of Friends in the Word Jen and Cyndi discuss... well we discuss... uhhhhh... sin.
This should be our most popular episode to date. BUT we actually hope it's up there, because the better we understand sin and it's weight, the more we can appreciate the beauty and absolute lavish mercy of God!
Jen does Depravity for the Big Fat Word of the Week and we spend some time in Gal. 5 for Do You Understand What You are Reading hoping to help us expand our understanding of our battle against sin and the flesh.
Then we get into a discussion on misunderstandings around sin, it's euphemisms, it's lies and the general bad it brings into the world.
We also learn that Cyndi doesn't know the meaning of Zero Sum Game ;P
We hope you'll enjoy and share this episode so we can all better appreciate the grace and forgiveness extended to us at the cross.
