    Easter Vigil | TTF 85

    In this episode of The Threshing Floor, we wanted to provide a different type of experience. The Easter Vigil is a tradition dating back to the early church and is still in practice in different expressions of Christianity today. It is a full worship service, complete with multiple expression of devotion to Jesus and includes baptisms and communion.  This episode is an immersive experience into the rhythm of the Easter vigil and is complete with a conversation about the host's own experience and love for the vigil. We also have a special guest, Dr. Lester Ruth, research professor of Christian Worship at Duke Divinity. He speaks specifically about the role of baptism and the early expression of baptism in the Easter Vigil. Dr. Marilyn Elliot also serves as part of our experience together. Drew Causey wrote a few special pieces of music and performed some other songs perfect for the Easter Vigil. You will also here a few select clips from Leonard Ravenhill, Joshua's favorite revival preacher. Chad has edited all of the together in a special auditory presentation. So sit back, put on your headphones and spend the next hour with The Threshing Floor's special Easter Vigil Episode.    Resources Mentioned: Walking Where Jesus Walked by Dr. Lester Ruth

    Prayer with Adam Weber

    Chad sits down with Adam Weber, lead pastor of Embrace Church, and has a conversation about prayer and his new book Talking with God. Chad and Joshua talk about prayer and how big of fans we are of Adam.  Our conversations include:  RIP Bill Paxton. The Summer will have her fury.  Hatfield and McCoy's Sturgill Simpson and his grammy.  The roots of Bro Country.  Roadies.  The Allman Brothers. Conversation with Adam. How we all love Matt LeRoy.  Shift in prayer life. It's isn't a last resort. It shifts into the first thing.  Prayer is the only option.  your to-do list is secondary to staying with the Lord.  Spend time on your knees. Literally. Make prayer the foundation of your life.  We don't need to #hustle so much.  Sabbath. We aren't robots or machines.  Corporate Prayer. A staff value. 1st place is on our knees.  Partnership Class. 1st ask is prayer.  Prayer after services.  Write/type while praying.  Marca Dawn on Prayer.  Our prayer life is like a phone call with loving parents.  Shame and prayer. And why we need to drop it.  Parent shaming.  How you view God will determine how you pray.  Chore or a relationship.  Leadership and corporate prayer.  Prayer is a deliberate and public activity.  AdamWeber.com IamEmbrace.com

    Dr. David Fitch, Sacramental Presence, and Youth Group Ski Trips | TTF 82

    It's Lent. And we just finished Mardi Gras. On this episode, Chad and Drew have a conversation about getting ready for Lent and traditions before Ash Wednesday. We also have a conversation with Dr. David Fitch from Northern Seminary in Chicago.  Our conversations include: Joshua is skiing. Youth group ski trips. Movie censorship. Mardi Gras. Shrove Tuesday. King Cake. Fat Tuesday and the Filthy Fifty. Shrove Tuesday or Fat Tuesday is the liturgical version of the classic Beatles or Stones question. David Fitch. Theology of Sacramental Presence. How the presence of Christ manifests in places. How are sacraments turned outward. A little fasting goes a long way. The whole church needs more Lent. You will not have a you that is a me without the us. How have you become reconciled back to Christ for the purpose of this world? Living as reconcilers. We pray to "our" Father, not "my" Father.  Different versions of the "presence" of Christ as subjective, experimental or a social reality. Sin in the camp effects the camp (exodus).  Peacemaking and reconciling. Do we believe in reconciliation or do we do reconciliation? What does Lent look like for the sake of other people? Lent and communal sins. Church Calendar (as Christendom). Communal Penitence.  Lent as a prophetic presence. It can't just be purple stuff. Post-modern reality is a reality of community. Lent as the presence of Christ. Christ is a social constructor NOT a social construct.  David Fitch and his Facebook skills.  Find and interact with David Fitch @fitchest and MissioAlliance
