For our week exploring prayer, we had different folks from the congregation offer their own testimonies about prayer--what they like to do, how they experience the Divine, what they've tried. To keep the pressure off our responders, we didn't record this. However, Rev. Jenelle offered a guided meditation at the end of service which we've recorded here for you. Find a comfortable place where you won't be interrupted and prepare yourself to be present to Presence!

We take a look at church hurt through the lens of Family Systems Theory...and take some deep breaths.

This week we talk about how to talk about God. Is God close and cuddly? Distant and mysterious? A bit of both?

This is an advertisement for our July book read: Faith after Doubt by Brian McClaren. It's also a sermon about how when our beliefs are up for grabs that doesn't mean our faith has nothing left for us.

Starting with an apology. The recording is not ideal. In fact, it's pretty lame quality. Apologies!

Friend and fellow Candler Alum Christina Toney-Schmitt joined us this week to tackle the Kingdom of Heaven. Despite my phone garbling the recording, I think her wise words on the topic are definitely worth a listen.

The Rev. Dr. Chris Holmes (he's very cute, even if you can't see him on this recording) joined us for our second sermon on the Bible. Listen in!

Basically a midrash on Peter Enns' book How the Bible Actually Works. What is in this Bible that makes it so unruly? Because it is.

Also, Jenelle's longest sermon to date. Ever.

The wonderful Laura Jean Truman joins us as we explore your questions about being Christian and being LGBTQIA+. You can also find Laura Jean at her blog at https://laurajeantruman.com and on Instagram @laurajeantruman.

Stop looking at heaven say the angels. Start looking at the world.
