A sermon preached at Harvest House Church in Greencastle, IN. Shame is always destructive, never accomplishes anything good, & should be given no place in your life, certainly not in your faith. But humiliation, friends...that’s the door to absolutely everything. Shame will strip your soul of things you actually do need. Humiliation will strip your ego of everything you don’t. Jesus washes Peter’s feet. This act does not shame him. It is tender, vulnerable. But it absolutely humiliates him. No wonder Jesus says if you don’t let me do this, you have no part with me. Humiliation is the path of salvation.

Shane Claiborne returns to the podcast for a conversation with the family of Julius Jones, who is currently on death row in Oklahoma. The last recourse in his case is clemency, which was filed for just this week! We talk with Julius’ mom, Madeline, and sister, Antoinette, about how we can all help, as well as new voices that are joining the chorus of people seeking justice for Julius—including none other than Kim Kardashian West!

Does God have an Enneagram number!? If so, what would it be!? What is the relationship of the Enneagram to the Trinity? We explore all of these questions in part two of our fascinating conversation with Dr. Jerome Lubbe on neurology and the Enneagram, plus reflect on how neurology can help us understand “deconstruction/reconstruction” in context of faith.

For Dr. Jerome, neuroscience and the Enneagram are two pieces of the same puzzle, and they serve a powerful function when paired together. Today he introduces us to his unparalleled, science-based method to view our identity through a truly unique model: the brain-based Enneagram. He reshapes our understanding of the Enneagram to a Whole-Identity Profile instead of a single-number personality “type,” expanding our capacity for growth and health in a multitude of directions. This is an hour full of practical wisdom from the author of the very first book on the neuroscience of the Enneagram!

People of faith right now are largely experiencing the disorientation, alienation, and isolation of a season of “exile.” What would it mean to actually live well in a time of exile—to actually flourish? What it would mean not just to survive, but to thrive, in the midst of such pain and complexity? In this sermon preached from The Table in Oklahoma City, we turn to the prophet Jeremiah for answers to these very pressing, very current questions.

Mark Charles is running as an Independent Candidate for President of the United States to build a nation where—for the first time—‘We the People’ truly means ALL the people. He is the author of the forthcoming book Unsettling Truths: The Ongoing, Dehumanizing Legacy of the Doctrine of Discovery. We talk about the doctrine of discovery, how the choice America faced in the presidential election of 2016 was actually between explicit racism & implicit racism, & how he, as a former pastor, navigates questions of both Native & Christian identity.

When Brandt Jean, younger brother of Botham Jean, hugged his brother’s killer Amber Guyger, it became a viral sensation—and a powerful symbol for many of forgiveness. On today’s Zeitcast, we asked the brilliant writer, speaker, singer-songwriter Andre Henry to take us deeper not just into the story, but the story we tell about the story. Along the way we talk broader themes of forgiveness, justice, grace, cancel culture, Ellen and George W. Bush, and more!

Author, speaker, disability advocate, and trauma survivor Stephanie Tait slices through the assumptions of the prosperity gospel that underwrite so many of our unhealthy ideas about faith. We talk about her gorgeous new book, The View from Rock Bottom, how she came to find God in her own pain, and ableism in the Church.

In this candid, beautiful conversation, Jonathan shares two stories about how Rob altered his life. At the heart of it is this question: what do you really want? What might it mean for you to allow yourself to want…what you really want? What if it is possible that the desires you have in your deepest, truest self are not in opposition to God, but precisely where the Spirit stirs in you? If you are in a place of discernment, trying to find your own wonder or your joy—confronting these questions honestly just might change your life, too.

Lisa Sharon Harper, founder and President of Freedom Road and author of The Very Good Gospel, is one of the most important voices in the Church today. With devastating clarity, she shows us how the “gospel” many of us have been given is actually not good news at all. In this absolutely essential Zeitcast, she gives us revelatory theological perspective on race, Christianity, and most especially—the brown Jesus who was crucified by empire. Provocatively, she explains how walking away from Jesus in the name of being “woke” is actually to demonstrate white supremacy, rejecting the liberating faith of oppressed people.
