Devotions in the Deep End episodes

  • Episode 80: The Folly of Bigger Barns
    This is a short take on the Parable of the Rich Fool, as a follow up to the previous episode where Jesus is asked to intervene in a will.  In both lessons, we are warned about the sin of covetousness and the crazy way it comes to be in the first place - the short answer:  it comes in Christians when blessing is not used properly!
    14 min
  • Episode 79: A Quick Lesson in Covetousness
    This is a quick episode that offers some thoughts around the question of one man that will lead to another parable.  The question of a will from one man becomes a warning about covetousness for a whole people! Not the most popular subject, but one we often overlook in our lives!
    9 min
  • Episode 78: Mary & Martha
    This is a well-known story in the New Testament, but one that's not often spoken on, although I think it really should!  Anyone in leadership or service in the church would do well to take a look at this episode and consider where they might fit into the story!
    16 min
  • Episode 77: The Good Samaritan
    This is an incredibly well known parable, and I happen to think it's an absolute work of art!  I love the ebbs and flows of the story as Jesus tells it, and I have a clear picture at least in my mind of a crowd that would be taken on an enthralling emotional journey as it was being told.  I hope a portion of my enthusiasm for this story comes across as you listen!

  • Episode 76: An Expert's Question
    We all know the story of the Good Samaritan (and we'll look at this in the next episode), but we don't often interact with the question or the person who triggered the teaching!  This episode will do just that - we'll look at the good and the questionable elements of this conversation, because the questions of this 'expert' have been questions some of us have asked at times too.

  • Episode 75: What Is A Samaritan?

    A SPECIAL FOCUS EPISODE

    As we follow the gospel narrative, we can see that the parable of the Good Samaritan is coming up fast, and other passages featuring Samaritans will come up in future episodes because they are mentioned in key ways throughout the gospels and the book of Acts.  To grasp the depth of this character (and others) in Jesus' story-telling, it's actually helpful to learn a little bit of Samaritan history.  Here is an 11-minute crash-course!

  • Episode 74: Come All Who are Weary

    As we study the passages around the sending of the 72, a few unique things appear which feel like they need time to explore.  In this case, a few verses in Matthew's gospel appear around this time, and this episode takes some time to explore an amazing invitation from Jesus.

  • Episode 73: Sending The Seventy-Two (Part B)
    The second message that explores the sending of the 72 in Luke's gospel.  This is a slightly different sort of devotional piece that reflects on the way the disciples interacted with the authority they were given, as well as Jesus' joy at what these disciples were now learning for themselves.

  • Episode 72: Sending the Seventy-Two (Part A)

    It's wonderfully poetic when the episode title and episode number both match up!

    This is the first of two reflections on Jesus sending the 72 likely just weeks from the cross at this stage of the narrative.  It has parallels to the sending of the Twelve but also stands alone with some twists to the plot that don't appear in the first instance. 

    12 min
  • Episode 71: Count The Cost
    The timeline of Jesus' life and ministry is getting shorter at this stage, and the call to "follower-ship" is both urgent and uncompromising, as we'll soon see in the passage this episode explores.
