What does Genesis 5 teach us about God and ourselves? Listen in as we trace the problem, the solution, and the resolution in Jesus as we walk with God.
Genesis 4 introduces us to the first murder in the Bible. More than just an interesting story, we see quickly how both Cain and Abel live in both of us, and what Jesus can do through His blood to forgive and release life. Listen in as we explore Genesis 4.
How does God respond to the failed humans in Genesis 3? He laments, describing life now that sin has entered the world. Listen in as we explore how God's poems address the snake, the woman, and the man, handing them over to the consequences of their actions.
Every day we all face a test to see if we will trust that God has our deepest happiness in mind. How will we prepare ourselves for the test? What choice will we make? And, when we make the wrong choice, how does God respond? Listen in as we explore Genesis 3 and how it plays out every day in our lives.
Two problems that never seem to go away in any culture or generation are purposelessness and loneliness. They catch us off guard, forcing us to find ways to cope and problem solve. Yet, in Genesis 2, we find answers to the problems given to us by God Himself! We don't need to wear fig leaves anymore and work up our own loveableness. Listen in as we explore God's grace and mercy in Genesis 2.
In Genesis 1, God creates, blesses, and dwells. But how does an ancient creation account teach us anything about God? How should we read Genesis, and what does this book have to do with Jesus?
What does it mean that Jesus is full of grace and truth? Listen in as we explore grace as unmerited goodness and truth as the unveiling of reality.
We all live stories, so which one are you living? The story of Christmas is an invitation to set aside all our burdens and insecurities, and take up the story of Jesus.
As we near Christmas and the end of the year, it's only natural to reflect on how God has grown us. Two questions that are especially helpful are: where do I have a glory deficit? and am I compelled by Jesus? For many of us, these two questions can reveal growth opportunities in our lives...so how do we go forward addressing those? We behold the Glory of God. Listen in as we explore what the glory of God is and how Jesus meets us in our weakness.
The Incarnation is an extravagant claim: God lives among us, God's presence is pursuing us, God moved into the neighborhood. Listen in as we explore the theme of God's presence dwelling with His people.
This week we start a new series on Advent, exploring the prologue to John's gospel. As we contemplate the incarnation, we recognize three advents of Jesus: his arrival as a Redeemer, his arrival as our Holiness, and his future arrival in Glory. Listen in as we remember, imagine, and experience our Lord this Advent season!
Wrapping up our series, we ask ourselves the same question: what is the Church? Listen in as we summarize and explore the entire letter called Ephesians.
Why does Paul tell slaves to obey their earthly masters? Why doesn't he outright condemn slavery? Listen in as we discuss the last section of the Household Code: slaves and masters.
More often than not, we want to romanticize our discipleship, making it grandiose and extravagant, while failing to live out transformed lives in the most intimate and relational places: the home. What does it look like to live in the beautiful vision of the New Humanity? It looks like submitting to one another in the arenas we find it most difficult. Listen in as we catch a glimpse of the mundane, beautiful, ordinary way to live in Jesus.
Following Jesus isn’t a one-time decision, it’s a lifelong walk. Along the way, our desires are reordered, and our hearts are reshaped. Paul reminds us in Ephesians 5 that how we walk, and who we walk with, matters deeply. Join us as we discover what it means to walk in love and to walk as light.
In Ephesians 4, Paul invites us to leave behind our old selves–marked by lies, separation from God, and slavery to greed–and to put on the new humanity created in Christ. Listen in as we explore how in this new self, we are grounded in truth, clothed in God's life, and abounding in generosity.
God is the source of all unity, and we are called to be agents of that unity! In Ephesians 4, Paul discusses the source, gifts, results, and ask of unity. Listen in as we explore what this means.
Ephesians 3 ends with a banger of a prayer: Paul prays with both his body and his words, asking God that we would have power to be overwhelmed by His love. What does this look like? Listen in as we explore what it means to be filled with all the fullness of God.
In Ephesians 3.1-13, Paul talks about grace, mystery, the church, and identity. Listen in as we explore each!
Who or what actually died on the cross? At the end of Ephesians 2, Paul shifts from a vertical focus, our relationship with God, to a horizontal one, our relationship with each other. What walls of hostility are we rebuilding, when God has already torn them down?
