Welcome to Rooted with Emily Talento.
This first episode lays the groundwork for the heart and direction of the podcast.
Rooted is for Christians who want a steadier, more grounded faith in a world that often feels confusing and unstable. A biblical worldview does not develop by accident. It is formed over time through discipleship and intentional time in Scripture, not just weekly church attendance.
In this episode, we slow down and name a tension many believers feel but struggle to articulate: the sense that something about the world feels deeply off. Rather than rushing to answers, we begin by acknowledging that reality and exploring why Scripture takes that feeling seriously.
Drawing from Ecclesiastes and the broader biblical story, this episode introduces how Scripture helps us understand the world as God intended it, what it means to live faithfully within its brokenness, and why that tension is not a sign of weak faith.
This episode sets the foundation for learning how to read the Bible with clarity, live with spiritual steadiness, and stay rooted in God’s purposes over time.
