Decisions That Demand Discernment
The Jesus we see in this passage seems out of character with the Jesus who loves and heals and cares for the poor. This Jesus announces division instead of peace. Sometimes, the issue that divides us is not the real issue.
Join us as we explore Luke 12:49-56. Time to wake up!

Martha’s Choice
This story is not a critique of kitchen duty. This is what Martha loses sight of. She is pulled in many directions. Martha’s distraction and worry leave no room for the important aspect of hospitality; attention to the guest.
Join us as we explore Luke 10:38-42. What is the one thing needed in this moment?

Extravagant Mercy from an Unexpected Source
We hear the word “Good” and “Samaritan” together so much we might think that they are one-in-the-same. Yet, Jesus uses a Samaritan to show what loving neighbor really involves.
Join us as we discuss Luke 10:25-37. Finish the story!

The Boundaries of Freedom
Freedom is a tempting thing. It could easily be used to serve oneself. The freedom won in Christ is not a license to do whatever we please because freedom from restraint, must be matched by freedom for a particular purpose. Join us as we discuss Galatians 5. What are we using our freedom for?

Jesus the Liberator
A man lives in grim conditions; among the dead, and recognizes Jesus. He delivers the people from the pigs and they are not fascinated by the sanity of the man, but horrified by the consequences of the salvation Jesus brings. Join us as we discuss John 14:8-17, 25-27. Healing is social AND political!

Misunderstanding at Pentecost
Jesus' departure is good for the disciples because of the gift of the Spirit. Difficult to imagine, the disciples’ ministry will equal, and exceed, that of Jesus once he departs. Join us as we discuss John 14:8-17, 25-27. When the Holy Spirit came, silence was no longer possible!

Disturbing the City
Making room for others can be hard work. We forget that the story isn’t all about us. Too often, those who are perceived as different become the objects of criticism and violence. Join us as we discuss Acts 16:16-34. Two wrongs don't make a right!

Wholeness in a Flawed System
Why design the pool so deep with the result that only a few have the means to get to it? This passage, John 5:1-9, tells the story of Jesus encountering many unhealthy people lying by the pool of Bethesda in hopes of getting healed.

The Tricky Part of Love
The love of Jesus is independent of who the other is or our feelings about them. The command to love one another is both our preparation for & our participation in his resurrected life, here and now.

You Don’t Always Have to See to Believe
Jesus is risen, but what sort of risen Jesus is this? And why is it that those who love him most can see him without recognizing him?
*Pastor Raquel’s voice is recovering from being under the weather, so today’s audio is not the best - but this episode’s conversation is no less meaningful nor powerful!*

The Surprising Pattern of the Cross
Jesus was willing to leave his head behind and followed his heart. He sacrificed himself and his life, everything he had ever seen and heard, learned, achieved, received, and enjoyed to undergo the death of a Roman cross.
