When Nehemiah heard of what was happening in Jerusalem he wept. What does a church in the 21st century that finds itself in exile to do?

The Story of the Hebrew's exile and return is one that can teach a lot - especially to a church that is in Exile in the 21st century. This week, we look back at how the people of Israel entered in a life of worship - what did they do, what did they learn and where did they mess up?

There's a lot of mis-information out about the woman we call Mary of Magdalene. This week we look at this amazing person from the biblical narrative and ask ourselves why Jesus met her after the resurrection? Why did she need that meeting and why is she called the Apostle to the Apostles?

Two men we know very little about and yet they encountered the Risen Jesus and their life's were forever altered.

I love the life of the Apostle Peter! He was a huge "foot in the mouth" kind of hero. In this weeks podcast, we look at the Fall and the restoration of Peter post Resurrection.

Often referred to as "Doubting Thomas" we don't usually think of Thomas as being someone who had a story that lead to his famous charge of putting his fingers in wounds of Christ. We often think of him as someone of little faith and refused to believe. But is that really what was going on with this follower of Jesus? How did the resurrected Jesus engage with Thomas and what do we learn from it?

We hear the story every year and for some it's become almost nothing more than a story. But what would happen, if we could reflect and enter the story? What could happen if we used our imagination and celebrated the One Year Anniversary of Palm Sunday? What would that feel like, sound like and how would it prepare us for Holy Week?

During our Lenten series, we've explored deeper questions and doubts about the Faith so many share. This week, we look at the idea of Fear and respond to this question, "If God is there, why do I fear so much about so much?" To look at this question, we look at the Life of Jesus. How did he deal with Anxiety and Fear at his darkest hours?

Why is it that Doubt is such a problem for us in the church? For many, Doubt and the Church don't go together, but it seems that Jesus was okay with folks who had doubts and questions and worries and fear. In fact, it seems he hung out with them a lot. In this podcast, we explore being a safe place for doubt.

Sunday evening at Antioch we participated in a Taize meditative time of worship and prayer. That morning, Jim preached at the early service and this podcast includes that time of teaching. The Scripture lesson is from Luke chapter 9 and it invites us to intentional living in lent!
