December 11, 2019 The Galapagos Islands: A Spiritual Journey (On Location) - With Brian McLaren
So all theology is contextual... Our theology is shaped by our context and our environment would be another way to say it. Brian McLaren recently went on a trip he will never forget... a trip to the Galapagos Islands. There, he paid close attention to everything around him but also to what was happening within his heart. The good and beautiful natural world awakened his soul in a way that organized religion could not. During this trip, Brian kept a journal, and recently released a new book, a spiritual memoir about his experience.
Join us as Brian takes us to the beautiful Galapagos Islands, sharing a few really helpful spiritual insights on the way.

December 05, 2019 Gospel Allegiance - With Matthew W. Bates
This week, Dr. Matthew Bates joined the conversation to discuss his latest book, 'Gospel Allegiance: What Faith in Jesus Misses for Salvation in Christ.'
The truth is... we are missing pieces of the gospel. Now, the biblical gospel can never change... Yet our understanding of the gospel must change! The church needs an allegiance shift. Tons of popular pastoral resources on the gospel are causing widespread confusion. Bates shows that the biblical gospel is different, fuller, and more beautiful than we have been led to believe. There is only one true gospel and one required response: allegiance. Enjoy!
