    In a time of tension, Jesus makes it clear what the Pharisee's obstacle was to receive the kingdom of God. How does this relate to us today?

  • Why Doesn't Jesus Start a Food Bank?

    Send us Fan Mail

    One of Jesus' most astounding miracles is when he feeds thousands of people. But it also raises some serious questions. Like: Why doesn't he do it more often? How does it feel for Jesus to live in a world of hunger when he could solve it? Why isn't this a bigger deal for the disciples? Join us as we discuss Jesus feeding the four thousand.

  • Replicating Jesus' Humility

    Send us Fan Mail

    I personally am so weak. But when I have any sort of power, it takes the Jaws of Life for me to be willing to give it up or put myself in a lower place. Jesus, in contrast, has all of the power, and yet he does not cling to it.  Today we are processing what it really means "to be like Jesus." Join as we discuss John 5 : 16-23

  • The Holiness in Struggle

    Send us Fan Mail

    Is it sinful to have any inner turmoil? Many Christians have been told that to struggle is to sin. For many, the reality of not having it all sorted out is shameful, something to hide. But is that the picture Jesus paints? Join us as we discuss John 12: 27-32

    Send us Fan Mail

    Have you ever heard something so backward it couldn't be true? I wonder if that is how Jesus' followers felt when he said they must die to live? We welcome you to think with us in this first part of our discussion on dying to live.

  • The Commandment We Ignore

    Send us Fan Mail

    Most people can agree that the ten commandments are good. Very few people are going to argue that murdering, stealing, or coveting are good things. But there is one commandment that even Christians seem to ignore, "Remember the Sabbath." Sabbath rest is something built into the fabric of reality and observed by believers for thousands of years. Why then is it so novel in the American church? In this episode, we dive into a passage where Jesus denounces legalism and declares himself lord of the sabbath.

    Luke 6:1-5

  • Do the Ends Justify the Means? (feat. Parker Inglee)

    Send us Fan Mail

    Do motivations matter? How, as followers of Jesus, do we look at good things brought about by unethical actions or immoral people? More importantly, how does Jesus look at these things?  Join us as we tackle the Parable of the Shrewd Manager.
