    There's so much conflict and division around an election season - in the church as well as the nation!

Coming out of his experiences and pressing into this challenge in his situations, there's loads of insight and practical help on how to apply Jesus and the Bible to our context. He joins us to talk about some of the big ideas, and we get to ask himi some of our follow-up questions You can get The Party Crasher here   Thanks for listening to this episode of the House of Learning podcast.

    Is there hope for me?

    We wrestle to engage with God and find hope. Habakkuk left us a song, and connected is with a story to inspire faith. We're joined by Mike McGeoy, who has written a book of his story, and how he's discovered God speaking and engaging him in ordinary ways that have grown his faith and transformed his life. Is there more of God to pay attention to in our own story: something to to appreciate and a story to tell? Mike's book is Is That You God: God is Always Speaking to Us...But Are We Really Listening?   Thanks for listening to this episode of the House of Learning podcast.

    Habakkuk's song: from lament to hope

    After two laments and a litany of woes, Habakkuk bursts into a song of hope and praise... so how did he get there? This song captures some of how God has interacted with the prophet, grown him and taught him, and expanded his horizons so faith could find hope in the midst of darkness. If a song for us, to help us take the same journey, and find hope in time of need. Thanks for listening to this episode of the House of Learning podcast.

    What is in a woe?

    Woe passages can make us nervous – after all, sometimes we're on the wrong side of a woe – but God is giving these woes to comfort and encourage. We're in the woe songs of Habakkuk. Each one gives insight into God's heart, and as we thing about how each context relates to ours, we can receive comfort and encouragement too...   Thanks for listening to this episode of the House of Learning podcast.

    What is Justice?

    Justice is a concept we are very confused about in our culture, and amidst all the options our city clamors about, God has something more. As God shows Habakkuk he cares about justice by explaining some specifics, it makes us pause to think about the framework we use. It's a big question, with a complex and nuanced answer... and we only scratch the surface! But it's a big conversation, so you''re invited to get excited about God growing you, and perhaps spotting your justice weak spot.

    How to lament with others

    As we continue to learn from Habakkuk, Heather (our star therapist) joins us to talk about lamenting with others. How can we be priests, bringing God's presence into the pain of others, by our presence with them. Does biblical lament offer a framework to help us understand how to interact with the suffering and grieving? It seems like there's a connection – so we explore the practical implications... Heather mentions the book Holy Listening, by Margaret Guenther   Thanks for listening to this episode of the House of Learning podcast.
