  • Acts: Christlike

    Key Text: Acts 6:8—8:3

    Stephen's life blazes spectacularly from the pages of Scripture; a man whose brief life brings Jesus to his feet in the court of heaven.

    As we live out our life as disciples of Christ there is much to learn from men like Stephen and thousands of others who have paved the way before us. Let us imitate them as they imitated Christ.

  • Episode 40: Ellen Tanner on Cancer, Isolation and Revillaging
    In this episode Ellen shares what her experience was like living through a cancer diagnosis and treatment as a single female in her mid thirties.  She shares how the chemo treatments impacted her working memory, which as a self proclaimed extrovert, ead to her first real experience with social anxiety.  
    We talked about the ways we can offer love and help to those dealing with cancer and how letting others care for you can really be a generous act of love,
    Such as the development of some social anxiety for the first time, the realization that accepting generous acts of love over and over again can actually trigger some nasty gremlins and that depression can be very real.
    We also talked about how cancer burned down everything in her life and why she says she is actually grateful for the experience.  
    We also dive into a concept that Ellen is really passionalte about, revillaging our lives.  We talk a little bit about lonliness and how that can show up in our lives and how hard it can be to talk about it.  
    Let me tell you what you can expect from this episode.  You can expect to want to build your own tribe of people to care and support for each other.  You can expect to want to reach out to the people in your life now and see how you might connect more in your daily life, you might relate to your own “burning down” experience or you may wonder, “What would I let go of if my life imploded over night?”  There is a sort of liberation you will hear in Ellen’s voice.
