It’s #LoveYourNeighbor day, and Chris Hall from Houston Northwest Church joins Andrew Hanauer from the One America Movement to discuss their work serving folks during Coronavirus and reaching out beyond Christian communities. Jeff Bethke returns with an encouragement about ‘sensory gating’ and why this season of quarantine is good for our brains. Joel Searby brings a Daily Dose, Calvin catches us up on some good news and Kris Carter closes the show with a stirring rendition of ‘Amazing Grace.’

If you are new to Signs of Life, this is a great place to start! Our own John Kingston recently had the opportunity to share about the American Awakening vision to nearly 10,000 people at the Q Virtual Summit. In today’s episode we share his talk recorded from OQ Farms in Bridgewater, Vermont — and the team unpacks with JK some of the ideas presented and how this team came together in the first place. Plus worship from Josh Jacob and Joel Searby’s ‘Daily Dose’.

What might our lives look like if we add one more choice to decisions we’re confronting — what is the third way when the choices appear to be binary? We’re watching standoffs between activists pushing to open up state economies and government officials considering what is best for the health and safety of their citizens. Through that lens the team asks, “How do we become ‘instruments of peace’ in these moments?” Plus Dan Haseltine brings us new music with John Mark McMillan!

It’s been three months since the first Coronavirus case was confirmed in the US — what have we learned? The team unpacks some take-aways that have impacted many of us. Plus, Jefferson Bethke reminds us we are created to be in tribes, Joel shares a “Daily Dose,” Calvin brings us the news and worship from Josh Jacob. And Dan Haseltine ponders opening bowling alleys before being joined by Andy Gullahorn, who shares music and the spiritual discipline of the high five.

It’s another packed show with Jefferson Bethke referencing Chick-fil-A in hopes of getting free sandwiches or to make a point about trusting God — we’re not sure which. Calvin Lee tells us about leaders who are ‘stepping up’ (looking at you Shake Shack!), One America’s Andrew Hanauer stops by to talk about #LoveYourNeighbor and the team chats about how we might approach our financial resources in this context. Plus ‘How To Live Well’, the ‘Daily Dose’ and worship from Josh Jacob.

In today’s episode, the Signs Of Life crew talks about how our faith could influence our actions in this unique moment. Is this when we reveal who we really are? Marisa Prince amplifies the point, “If we’re not going to hoard the toilet paper, then let’s not hoard the peace!” Joel Searby checks in with the Daily Dose, and Jefferson Bethke shares how we can get closer while we’re spending time apart. Plus, Jonathan Noel brings some new music from his home studio in Raleigh.

The team digs in on how family and work worlds are colliding in this moment and asks the question, “What are some of the advantages and challenges in accepting this new reality?” Calvin Lee catches us up on the latest news, Joel Searby brings a Daily Dose and Jefferson Bethke talks about moving from “suck, to not suck.” Plus worship from Josh Jacob and a very moving performance from songwriter Jason Gray, which includes a new song co-written with our own Dan Haseltine!

Our daily whip around the U.S. brings us from Boston to Florida, Hawaii, Nashville and back — working through what we do in moments like this, how to make it through the loneliness and isolation we’re all experiencing, and some deeper ideas connected to identity and purpose for these times. Plus Dan Haseltine interviews Grammy & Tony Award winning songwriter and composer Wayne Kirkpatrick, who shares about his upcoming Broadway musical “Mrs. Doubtfire.”

The squad unpacks some of the great teams throughout history and reminds us why even now we need great team work to thrive and survive. Joel Searby brings a Daily Dose, Jefferson Bethke checks in from Hawaii, Calvin Lee gets us caught up on the news and to close out the show our man Dan Haseltine welcomes Mac Powell. After reminiscing about some old school Jars of Clay/Third Day road stories, Mac shares new music and a classic from his home in Atlanta.

Joel Searby brings a Daily Dose about how we can experience freedom, even while we’re all locked down. It’s a message for now or anytime. Jefferson Bethke checks in from Maui with a reminder that Easter isn’t just one day — reminding us to ‘sit in’ the resurrection story, and the stories behind our scars. And our friend Andrew Hanauer from the One America Movement joins us to share about #loveyourneighbor and modeling positivity during the Coronavirus crisis. Plus worship from Josh Jacob.
