What if math could show you God’s order in everyday life? In this first episode of Math Theology, we explore how algebra, equations, and patterns aren’t just numbers—they’re clues to understanding the world and your faith. Honest, clear, and encouraging, this episode will change the way you see math and maybe even God.

“PEMDAS or perish!” We’ve all heard math rules shouted like commandments—but what if obedience in math mirrors obedience in life? Charity Allsop and guest Francine talk about what it really means to follow order, trust the process, and why ‘obey’ might just be the most freeing word in both theology and algebra.

Purpose and problems go hand-in-hand—but they don’t have to keep you stuck. In this episode, Charity Allsop and Tia share how honesty, faith, and a little algebraic wisdom can help you turn complaints into clarity and problems into purpose.

James 2:25-26, "Rahab the prostitute is another example. She was shown to be right with God by her actions when she hid those messengers and sent them safely away by a different road.  Just as the body is dead without breath,[i] so also faith is dead without good works."

Charity and guest James Viafara look at wisdom through the lens of linear functions—patterns, consistency, and slope. This episode connects math to real life, showing why direction matters and how steady habits shape long-term purpose.

Proverbs 9:10-15

"Fear of the Lord is the foundation of wisdom.
    Knowledge of the Holy One results in good judgment.

 Wisdom will multiply your days
    and add years to your life.
 If you become wise, you will be the one to benefit.
    If you scorn wisdom, you will be the one to suffer."

In this episode, Charity Allsop breaks down exponential functions and how they reveal the way God multiplies our small, consistent steps. Joined by writer and educator Lourdes Anita Branch, they explore the connection between faithfulness, spiritual growth, and the exponential patterns we see in math. From slow beginnings to dramatic increase, this conversation shows how God uses steady obedience to produce supernatural results.

Parables & Parabolas
Jesus didn’t teach in parables by accident — and parabolas aren’t taught in math for no reason. In this episode of Math Theology, we uncover the shared structure between quadratic functions and Jesus’ teachings: focus, turning points, and direction. Where you place your focus determines how everything else unfolds.
