The Parish Podcast

This morning we begin our Lenten season with the Baptism of Jesus, and it is important that we begin there. Like Christ, our invitation into the wilderness is from a place belovedness and into a place of preparation, detachment, and fasting, but our wilderness journey is not without benefit. We move this way for the sake of our wholeness and our freedom in the hidden heart. Listen along as Jordan teaches from Mark 1.

We see a mountain top experience on Transfiguration Sunday: Christ clothed in glory among Moses and Elijah and the disciples in awe of it all. Peter suggests they stay up there for a while longer, but Jesus must descend back down the mountain. This Sunday we explore what Henri Nouwen calls "downward mobility," and we share a breath prayer saying "for the love of Jesus, I will let go."

Jordan shares this morning the story of Peter's mother-in-law. She was sick and alone when Jesus raised her up and restored her health, and in this new place of life, she discovers a resurrected purpose and a Christ-like service.

This week Jordan leads us through 1 Corinthians 8 and its implications in a pandemic world. Listen along as we discuss Paul's words, "Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up," and hear his response to cultural affairs of that time.

A guided listening experience in 1 Samuel 3 led by Andy, Jordan, and David.

This week Jordan dives deeper into the stories of Samuel and Eli and into the story of Jesus' baptism. Just as Samuel hears the voice of the Lord in the evening and Christ hears the voice of the Father in the water, we too can hear His voice speak love over us, His children and His servants. Listen along as Jordan unpacks the hope in being spoken over.

As a child, Samuel famously says "Speak Lord, Your servant is listening." Andy shares in this homily breath prayers to be more like Samuel and perspectives to be more like Samuel's teacher, Eli. Listen along as we learn to be more present to God and to others.

Jordan talks on Three Kings in an unexpected way this Epiphany. Listen along as he shares a perspective on Pharaoh, King Herod, and Christ the King.

Jordan teaches on John 1 in this Epiphany gathering.
