    3.1 [TEACHING] Gospel of John (wk 15) - 9:1-33

    Jason Miller - In John 9, Jesus's disciples ask a question that so many of us ask when someone suffers or something goes wrong - whose fault is it? But rather than satisfy our desire for an answer, Jesus seizes the opportunity for healing and glory, and the man's healing disrupts the expectations of the people around him.  What's Happening Register for Baptism Join us for some special gatherings and practices during Holy Week this year.

    2.22 [TEACHING] Gospel of John (wk 14) - 8:1-30

    Jason Miller - Throughout the gospel of John, Jesus' identity and authority are challenged by others and reasserted by him. But maybe the important question isn't simply whether Jesus has authority, but what he does with it.  What's Happening Join us for some special gatherings and practices during Holy Week this year.

    2.15 [CONVERSATION] The Wisdom We Gain From the Work of God in Other Places

    David Armstrong, Daniel Saunders, John Herron, Jason Miller - From the beginning of SBCC’s story, a friendship has been growing with the people of Redeemer Central Church in Belfast, Northern Ireland. This weekend, we had the privilege of a visit from seven of Redeemer’s leaders who made the trip across the pond to be with us. In our gatherings, we explored the ways Redeemer holds space for doubt and faith; the power of Redeemer’s practice of prayer; and the wisdom they’ve gained in the context of a post-conflict society.  What's Happening Join us in reading James Cone’s The Cross and the Lynching Tree and RSVP to the roundtable discussion.

    1.27 [CONVERSATION] The Cross Through the Ages

    Dr. Macie Sweet and Jason Miller - This year during Lent, we're offering a workshop with Dr. Macie Sweet, a scholar of medieval theology at the University of Notre Dame. For two thousand years, depictions of the crucifixion of Jesus have been portrayed through art. Age by age, artistic relics have given historians a glimpse into both cultural and theological focuses by how the cross and Jesus are represented. To register for the workshop, head to our website. This episode includes a discussion of three historical depictions of the cross.

    1.25 [TEACHING + PRACTICE] Gospel of John (wk 12) - 6:16-21

    Jason Miller - As we face the world with all of its pain, fear, and violence, we might feel some common ground with the disciples of Jesus who find themselves in dangerous waters. The Gospel of John, with its interest not merely in the events of Jesus' life, but the meaning of Jesus' life, invites us to a practice of the presence of God that can help us bring peace to others. The Substack written by Nadia Bolz-Weber, and referenced throughout today's teaching, can be found here: Dear Nadia, I'm struggling with the world's weight.
