Luke 5:27-32

Jesus sits down to eat with a crowd of tax collectors and sinners, and the Pharisees aren’t happy about it.

But Andy points out the way that they - and us - miss the need to be living a life of constant forgiveness. When we forgive and accept people, joy starts breaking out.

Take a look around you and see if that sort of party is breaking out - and if not, start one.

With Brandi on her way to becoming a head pastor of a nearby church, the group answers the question of whether head pastor is actually a role women are supposed to move into, or is that against what the Bible says?

Brandi has stories, Bible passages, and books to recommend. Even when she’s not ready for the question... she’s ready for the question.

1 Timothy 1:12-17

Andy talks about transformation - inviting you to think back to the person that you were, and then to the person you are today, and realize how much you've changed.

We want to leave a legacy: a legacy of faith, a legacy of trust, but that only happens when we share what we know.

On one of our last few podcasts with Brandi (this is your last chance to send in questions you’d like to hear Brandi answer, so please send those in!), the group takes on how involved Jesus was in government, how much they think he’d be involved today, and what a Jesus-like approach to politics would look like.

Acts 13:47

Andy talks about how the disciples saw Jesus appear to them, resurrected, and how they were completely changed - and how we are in daily need of that “resurrection power.”

We all have those moments where we’ve had doubt and fear, and let them take over. But our God is a God who is always fighting for what is good. And when we embrace those things, the darkness fades away.

Luke 18:9-14

Andy changes is wearing a Hawaiian shirt at the beginning of this (this is surprisingly important to understand at the beginning of this sermon in an audio format). It’s part of his explanation of the story of the Pharisee and the tax collector, and how little appearances matter to God.

During such uncertain times, should we be saving our money or sharing our abundance with others who are struggling to keep their heads above water? The group discusses battling the fear or generosity and the emotional side of giving.

Luke 14:12-14

Andy talks about the importance of having a sabbath day, and what Biblical generosity looks like.

When we give to people who cannot give back to us, there is still a blessing - we see the world in a different way. We see the world in the same way that God sees us.
