This week, host Michael Glenn sits down with Luke Stehr and Ashley Berryhill to unpack an incredible whirlwind of a week at the church — hosting the Kingdom of Jordan's Visit Jordan Experience during the World Cup, welcoming Jordanian dignitaries and the Jordanian ambassador to the US, and celebrating the powerful hospitality shown to their new friends from the Middle East. Luke and Ashley share the behind-the-scenes story of how this partnership came together in just a matter of weeks, what the night looked like with worship, biblical history presentations, and a gift exchange, and why this moment feels like a spark for how the church is being called to engage with the Arab and broader Middle Eastern Christian community going forward.
The conversation then turns to Luke's recent sermon on the book of Philemon and what it means to live out true kindness as a fruit of the Spirit — crossing cultural, national, and relational barriers the way Christ did. Ashley offers practical, everyday steps for building relationships across cultures (starting with curiosity, not judgment), and the team closes out by celebrating another highlight of the week: Kinder Bible School. It's a conversation about radical hospitality, kingdom citizenship, and what it looks like to be led by the Spirit in a divided world.
