    Ep 9: The Shadow of Death (Good Friday, Lent 2025)

    In this Good Friday episode we reflect on the Gospel of John chapters 18 & 19. We highly recommend reading the scripture before listening as we do not read the text in this episode. We discuss betrayal, denial, sorrow, and death. Good Friday invites us to step into the darkest corners of our humanity and face our collective shadow.  Rachael Phelps she/her, Rev. Andrew Conley-Holcom he/him, Rev. Sarah Casey she/her Recorded for Friday, April 18, 2025 Year C

    Ep 8: A Sacrificial Life (Maundy Thursday, Lent 2025)

    It’s a Maundy Thursday episode, and we’re in the thick of Holy Week. We read on John 13:1–17, 31b–35 NRSV; the moment Jesus shares a meal with his disciples, washes their feet, and gives them a new commandment: love one another as I have loved you. It’s intimate, uncomfortable, and powerful. Join us as we reflect on why this moment matters. Rachael Phelps she/her, Rev. Andrew Conley-Holcom he/him, Rev. Sarah Casey she/her Recorded for Thursday, April 17, 2025 Year C

    Ep 7: It’s Not About Winning (Palm Sunday, Lent 2025)

    This week we read and reflect on Luke 19:28-40 NRSV as we cross the threshold into Holy Week. Palm branches wave, cloaks hit the ground, and Jesus rides in—not to conquer, but to subvert. We dig into the radical context of his entrance: how it undermines the logic of empire, disrupts capitalism’s obsession with profit, and points us toward a vision of the common good.  Rachael Phelps she/her, Rev. Andrew Conley-Holcom he/him, Rev. Sarah Casey she/her Recorded for Sunday, April 13, 2025 Year C

    Ep 6: Something Worth Doing (Fifth Sunday of Lent 2025)

    Episode 6 finds us in the Gospel of John 12:1-8 NRSV. It’s a major turning point in the season of Lent. We reflect on Mary bringing out the best she has, Judas living in an alternate reality, the economy of scarcity that capitalism requires to survive…all through the lens of Mary’s impromptu ritual: blessing the feet of Jesus that would carry him to the cross.

    Ep 5: Earning What's Already Ours (Fourth Sunday of Lent 2025)

    This week, we read Luke 15:1-3, 11b-32 NRSV and reflect on the barriers we build to our belovedness. Join us as we explore the ways hierarchy and cultural norms shape our sense of worthiness, and find spiritual sustenance in the poetry of Saint Mary Oliver. Rachael Phelps she/her, Rev. Andrew Conley-Holcom he/him, Rev. Sarah Casey she/her Recorded for Sunday, March 30, 2025 Year C

    Ep 4: Who is responsible? (Third Sunday of Lent 2025)

    In this episode we read Luke 13:1-9 NRSV and explore the shift from asking why we suffer to how do we respond to suffering? If we reject the claim that God causes us to suffer and accept that we suffer because we’re human…where do we go from there?  Rev. Sarah Casey she/her, Rev. Andrew Conley-Holcom he/him Recorded for Sunday, March 23, 2025 Lectionary Year C
