    He's Still There!

    In this message, we explore one of the Bible's strangest acts of protest: Isaiah walking naked and barefoot for three years as a warning against trusting the empire for safety. This sermon looks at symbolic action, spell-breaking resistance, and why faithfulness in the face of power isn't about volume, but endurance. When lies feel normal and cruelty is normalized, the call is simple and costly: stay present, stay awake, and outlast empire.

    Naked for Three Years?

    Some systems won't change with words alone. This sermon explores Isaiah's shocking act of embodied protest and what it means to resist empire today, not by shouting louder, but by showing up longer, breaking the spell of false security, and bearing faithful witness.

    I'm not mad at you.

    The killing of Renée Good, a 37-year-old mother of three, revealed a moment of moral clarity in our nation. This sermon explores three responses to her death, unchecked power, narrative control by empire, and Renée's own final words, "I'm not mad at you"—to reveal a vision of creative resistance rooted in Jesus: resisting injustice without mirroring its cruelty, holding systems accountable while refusing to surrender our humanity, and choosing courageous compassion in the face of fear.

    Shattering Jars

    In A Creative Resistance, Part 1, we focus on Jeremiah's shocking act of smashing a clay jar as a public, prophetic protest. This embodied act exposes the illusion of strength in a nation convinced it was divinely untouchable. Jeremiah reveals that some corrupt systems cannot be repaired, they must be shattered. The sermon invites us to imagine how creative resistance can still awaken truth and confront injustice today.

    Rich + Poor

    In the final sermon of A Revolutionary Anthem, Mary's Magnificat exposes the lie of empire: proclaimed prosperity built on hidden suffering. "He has filled the hungry with good things and sent the rich away empty." This message reveals a God who overturns rigged systems, lifts the lowly, humbles the powerful, and calls us to give birth to a world turned upside down.

    Arrogance + Humility

    Mary's Magnificat reveals a God who topples the powerful and lifts the lowly. This is Exodus again, oppressive systems overturned and dignity restored. Advent isn't sentimental; it's a radical reordering of power. In this episode, we explore the holy reversal at the heart of Mary's song.

    A Revolutionary Anthem: Setting + Sound

    Mary's Magnificat is more than a song, it's a revolutionary anthem. From the margins of society, she sings joy that resists despair and challenges empires built on fear. In this episode, we explore how her journey, her spirit, and her words still call us to hope, justice, and daring joy today.
