Relational Healing
Nathan & Lacey Steel are purveyors of relational healing, wholeness, and discipleship. They are also parents of two adopted homeschoolers, and consumers of strong coffee. They started Cultivate Relationships to encourage and equip Christians to enjoy life no matter what and live connected to God and others. It was inspired by their own journey to relational wholeness — from isolation and anger to living connected.

STB160 | BSE | Hebrews 8.13-10.18 E1
Monday, January 19, 2026
BIBLE SCHOOL EDITION – Nathan and Pastor Scott begin a series exploring Hebrews 9-13 by setting the theological foundation for why Jesus is greater than everything that came before him (think Old Testament Law and the 10 Commandments). Before diving into doctrine, they dive into the purpose, authorship, and structure of Hebrews. This episode reframes the Old Testament as a shadow pointing to Jesus, clarifying why the law could diagnose sin but never heal it — and why intimacy with the Father is now fully accessible through Jesus. *Please note, this discussion takes place in two episodes. This is episode one.*| VIEW LINKS & NOTES |
LATEST EPISODE
STB161 | BSE | Hebrews 8.13-10.18 E2
Monday, January 26, 2026
BIBLE SCHOOL EDITION – Nathan and Pastor Scott continue their study through Hebrews by confronting how easily believers drift back into external rules, self-effort, and spiritual performance. This episode presses into the heart of the gospel: Jesus didn’t partially replace the old covenant — he fulfilled and rendered it obsolete. The conversation exposes how law-based thinking (a life built on the 10 Commandments) still shapes worship, discipleship, and judgment today, and re-centers salvation as trusting Jesus’ finished work while living empowered by the Holy Spirit, not managed by religious systems. *Please note, this discussion takes place in two episodes. This is episode two.*| VIEW LINKS & NOTES |

Why giving up social media feels harder than it should!
Monday, January 19, 2026
If you’re reading this and you’re in our third week (view previous emails by clicking here) of a January social media fast, I want to say this first: this isn’t about guilt or comparison. This fast isn’t a test — it’s an invitation to awareness, freedom, and rest. Most of us don’t stay on social media because we love it. We stay because it meets very real emotional needs — and exposes some quiet fears we don’t always like to admit. Here are a few of the real reasons stepping away feels so difficult....| CONTINUE READING |

What surfaced when the noise stopped?
Monday, January 26, 2026
If you’re finishing this social media fast, the most important question isn’t “Did I make it 21 days?” It’s “What surfaced when the noise stopped?” For many of us, stepping away didn’t just remove scrolling — it revealed things that were already there. Emotions we’d been numbing. Thoughts we’d been ignoring. Longings we hadn’t even realized. Social media didn’t create those things; it helped us avoid them. So let me ask a few honest questions — not for guilt, but for clarity...| CONTINUE READING |
