It’s a full-on Fun Friday on The Steve Marston Show! Steve kicks things off by breaking down what biblical meditation really means—and why slowing down in Scripture (Joshua 1 and Psalm 1) can transform your faith. Then it’s time to crank the fun level to 11 with a hilarious look at a “Top 10 Things in Heaven” list from The Babylon Bee.

Plus, Adam Holz from Plugged In joins the show to talk new movies, including I Can Only Imagine 2, and the annual Plugged In Movie Awards. Steve also answers listener questions about biblical meditation, church on Sundays, medicine and faith, zombies, and even March Madness picks.

Oh—and yes, there are dad jokes. Because faith and fun both matter around here.

He’s a regular guy with a cool job—and a deep love for Jesus. The Steve Marston Show is a daily, faith-and-fun conversation designed to help you take the next step in your walk with Christ. Think of it as a “200-level” discipleship course: deeper than the basics, but still practical, relatable, and real.

Each episode blends biblical truth, cultural commentary, and honest talk about marriage, parenting, identity, and what it looks like to put God first in a busy, distracted world. Along the way, Steve sits down with guests God is working through, highlights stories of transformation, explores what’s happening in the news through a Christian lens, and—yes—delivers a steady dose of dad jokes.

Serious about faith. Serious about fun. And serious about helping you live like Jesus where it matters most.

Fun Friday: Biblical Meditation, Babylon Bee’s Heaven List & Plugged In Movie Awards - February 20, 2026

On today’s episode of The Steve Marston Show, Steve tackles what may be the most important question anyone will ever answer: Who is Jesus to you? Inspired by a conversation on The Dale Jr. Download with Dale Earnhardt Jr., Steve explores why this question cuts deeper than general statements about faith—and why it reveals everything about a person’s spiritual condition.

If you’ve ever felt unsure about how to share your faith, this episode offers a simple, powerful starting point. No theological gymnastics required—just a personal question that moves the conversation from “Jesus died for the world” to “What has He done for you?”

In “That’s Not in the Bible,” Steve addresses a common phrase heard at funerals: “Heaven gained another angel.” Is that biblical? A careful look at Scripture, from Genesis to Matthew 11, clarifies what actually happens when believers die—and why our future hope is even better than becoming angels.

Who Is Jesus to You? Asking the Question That Changes Everything - February 19, 2026

How do you know when God is calling you to something new? In this episode of The Steve Marston Show, Steve unpacks the tension between waiting on God and stepping out in faith. From seminary misfires to unexpected closed doors, he shares practical wisdom on discerning your calling—and trusting God with the outcome.

Then, Pastor and author Joe Manning joins the conversation to explore the deeper meaning of the Lord’s Supper. Is it more than a ritual tacked onto the end of a service? Together, they dive into the biblical foundation in 1 Corinthians, the Old Testament backdrop in Ruth, and what it truly means to commune with Christ and one another.

Plus: listener emails on the rapture, raising Bible-reading kids, surviving life without football, a memory verse from Colossians 3:17, and a laugh-out-loud comedy clip from Leanne Morgan.

Faith and fun—taken seriously.
