Spiritual Thoughts

EP. 23 | War is absurd. Here's why... 

EP. 22 | That moment when you've left that place of trouble, but haven't made it to the next thing... that's exile, and sometimes that exile can make us feel like we never should have [insert: left a relationship, quit a job, spoken a truth, etc.] at all. The Israelites were thinking the same thing after Moses led them out of slavery in Egypt to head for the promised land. 

EP. 21 | The last part (for now) of the series 'Confronting the God's' comes from my wife's favorite story from the gospels: when Jesus rides into Jerusalem on a donkey. 

EP. 20 | Another very interesting but often misunderstood story from the bible is the flood narrative in Genesis. In part 4 of 'Confronting the God's' we take a look at how this is, actually, just a retelling of a story we've already heard....

EP. 19 | Part three is all about how Christians in the first century remember Jesus's "last supper" with his disciples. It's anti-empire, and it's right under Caesar's nose. 

EP. 18 | Here we are at part 2 of the series, "Confronting the God's." This time, we're jumping a few thousand years and looking at the way Roman's held banquets. This is just the set-up for what's next... Enjoy! 

EP. 17 | This is part one of a new series I am calling, Confronting the God's. I'll be looking at some of my favorite anti-empire texts from the bible and expounding on how they might be misread. Enjoy! 

EP. 16 | Hope is the anticipation of joy. I'm persuaded the by product of living with the anticipation joy is kindness. Are you convinced? 

EP. 15 | This is an interesting one... Did he just say something about glowing with the glory of God with regard to the stars in the sky?

EP. 14 | Jay Z threw a party and it cost him ONLY $100,000. That'll make more sense once you dive into this episode.
