This week, Tim is joined by author Marc Schelske to discuss his book Walking Otherward: Forty Meditations on Following Jesus' Path of Other-Centered, Co-Suffering Love. This forty-day devotional invites readers to journey with Jesus in the final weeks leading to His crucifixion, reflecting on the transformative power of kenotic (self-emptying) love. More than just a Lenten guide, this book provides a deeply theological and reflective approach to exchanging self-centered ambition for the radical, other-centered love of Christ.

Tune in as Marc shares insights from his writing process, shaped by conversations with Dr. Bradley Jersak and a foreword by Brian Zahnd.
