  • S2, E2: “Deconstruction vs. Demolition”
    If deconstruction is the process of calling our existing beliefs about God into question, what should be the end goal of that process? And can a process of deconstruction become a process of demolition? The midnight crew takes on these questions and more in this episode of Midnight Theology. Plus, stick around for a little trivia about Valentine’s Day and it’s eyebrow-raising ties to an ancient Roman festival!

  • Season 2, Episode 1: “Eliminating Hurry”

    Do you ever feel like you’re living in a constant state of hurry? If so, you’re not alone. In this first episode of MNT’s second season, we discuss the concepts presented in John Mark Comer’s recent book “The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry,” which not only names the symptoms of a hurried life, but explores what both Jesus and church tradition have to teach us about intentionally un-hurrying ourselves in order to experience the fullness of life that Christ offers us.

  • Episode 003: “Why does the resurrection Matter?”
    Over the last century, the notion of Jesus bodily rising from the dead has become a topic of debate in some circles. After all, it’s not every day that a person who has been dead for three days walks out of their tomb. But just because the resurrection is outside the realm of our experience, does that make it any less real?
    Pastors Sarah, Gabe, Larry, and Adam take on this question and more in this special post-Easter episode of Midnight Theology, as they explore how the bodily resurrection of Jesus is still good news for us today.
