It’s easy to feel alone and cut off from people and churches that we love and belong(ed) to. Militant MAGA Christianity is corrupting the church, and it is heartbreaking to see. But you are not alone.

The temple for the Jews was the place where God dwelt. From the tabernacle or tent of meeting in the wilderness to Solomon’s great temple, and later the temple in Jesus’s day, worship centered around the temple. But when Jesus came all that changed.

Idols. Not just carved images from wood or stone. The idols commanding the worship of many Christians in the United States today are prompted by well-known Christian leaders.

We can live in a “free” country, amass great wealth, and emphasize our personal rights without ever experiencing the freedom God offers us. True freedom is internal. Like the oxygen in our blood, it is woven into the very fabric of our being.

The word "Babylon," appearing approximately three hundred times in our Bibles, and finding its ultimate meaning in the book of Revelation, is a word we would do well to understand in our day when so many Christians are choosing the way of the Beast over the way of the Lamb. In this episode, Dan seeks to open our eyes to the seductive nature of Babylon in the church today.

Beginning in the book of beginnings, the book of Genesis, the roots and history of the word “Babylon” evolves into a dramatic symbol for the dehumanizing and broken world in which we live. In this two-part podcast, Dan traces the origin and fall of Babylon, as he warns followers of Jesus to “come out of her, my people.”

The Christian faith was never meant to be a "one size fits all" religion. Just the opposite. In this episode, we will be examining what the apostle Paul refers to as the "multicolored wisdom" of God. It is a term he used to describe the church. A community composed of people from various backgrounds, cultures, and ways of life. It is the ultimate "whosoever" word of God.

Like repentance, confession is a word for which the meaning has been drastically reduced in a large portion of the church in our day. In this episode, we look at the larger concept of confession and its powerful effect on our growing self-awareness as followers of Jesus.

We tend to associate the word "repentance" with sin. While this is not exactly wrong, it does a disservice to the message of Jesus as he calls us to see our lives and world from the perspective of God's kingdom. As followers of Jesus, we are called to a lifelong process of repentance.
