Watershed Talks

In which our pilgrims unpack the classic tale of Jesus calming the storm and ask the question - why does it seem that we like worry? As Christians, we are “Christ followers” or “little Christs,” so how can it be that he was sleeping through such a tumultuous moment? Is there a way for us to be like Jesus during the storms of our life?

In which our pilgrims look at the story of the twelve spies into the promised land and put it into conversation with the idea of our ‘telos.’ Do the stories we tell ourselves matter? Are Christians called to tell an altogether different kind of story?

In which our pilgrims dive into the story of Abraham when his faith was tested the most. Pastor Tim's unavailable this week so we replaced him for his son Parker as our special guest and bringing this topic. 

In which our pilgrims attempt to deal with something that makes us all a little uncomfortable - simply being still and quiet. Why is it so hard for us to turn off all the noise and just sit in God’s presence? Does the church have a role and responsibility in guiding believers back to this centuries old practice of embracing stillness?

In which our pilgrims have returned and jump right into one of the most forgotten and misunderstood doctrines of our faith - the Triune God.

In which our pilgrims are joined by Pastor Nicholas Hanges from Foundation Church here in Spencer four our season finale!!! This talk we focus on making church and building our faith the priority in our lives. 

In which our pilgrims are joined by Coach Andy McGaffin and attempt to take in the whole arc of the Old Testament; seeing in this beautiful story a plan by God to show each one of us how we are worthy of being redeemed.

In which our pilgrims go for a deep dive into the “love chapter” and wonder why Paul took his time to point out what love is not? Is this a way to help us know what love actually is?

In which our pilgrims crack open the Parable of the Sower and ponder the different heart-conditions this classic text teaches. How do people keep their “soil” in good condition? What are the “gardening" tools in our Christian-toolbox to help us to do the same?

In which our pilgrims take a look at the early church in Acts as well as the church of today and ask the question - why can’t the church be perfect? Is there a way to be an “imperfectly perfect” kind of church?
