The Key

Part of being human is building culture. But what does it mean for humans to have culture and why is there such diversity? How does multiculturalism pair with the Gospel? Let's think about this together as we consider building human culture like painting with God.

Here we begin our discussion on the imago dei or the image of God. What does it mean to be in God's image? Why are there multiple interpretations of this important concept and are they all equal?

With the development of AI, debates around gender, scientific materialism, and virtual reality, considering what it means to be human is incredibly challenging and important. This episode just begins the discussion, starting by peeling back the layers to ask: what is a human? And how might Christ’s resurrected body inform this discussion?

In this second episode of "The Little Key" we trace some of the similarities and differences between Jesus and two goats. The Bible my daughter references can be found here: Biggest Story Bible. We also discuss Lent, Easter, and Jesus' time in the wilderness!

How does God relate to the created universe? How can we know God through the material world?

Welcome to our first official episode of The Little Key. On these episodes, I’m excited to welcome my eldest daughter! Children have such good insights into the faith, generous questions and imagination. I love their sweet tenderness and innocence, their willingness to accept mystery and delight in God as a joy and refuge in times of trouble. These are the things which I think we, as adults, may easily lose, and it’s something I want us to recapture. To that end, join us today as we talk about our favourite little prayer book and the gift that it’s been to our family!

Paul says "now we know in part, but then we shall know fully." What are the limitations of our knowledge while on this side of the resurrection? How do we avoid making knowledge an idol or turning the faith into a bunch of boxes to tick? While there are core things we must believe, how do we hold in tension the things we cannot know?

There are many things which vie for our attention and demand to be sources for theology. How do we assess the claims of each, and how should these disparate voices be brought together? This episode considers these questions as we bring together themes from the last several weeks, including the doctrine of God's self-revelation and the topic of epistemology.

"There and Back Again, by Bilbo Baggins." What if this was the story of our Christian life? What if Ash Wednesday was an entrance into the ongoing adventure, with which we haven't yet finished?
