Ep.79 | Prayer is the Mission Strategy, not just the Backup Plan

Matthew 9:37-10:10 | We have precious few works from Jesus about how to conduct the mission to share the Kingdom of Heaven with the world. One of the clearest directives from Jesus is right here in Matthew 9:37. Pray. It seems underwhelming for many of us action-oriented people. However, when you take a really good look at what God is doing versus what we are doing, you might just bend a knee. Follow along with the Lesson Worksheet. This is a public episode.

Ep.78 | Touching the Sun of Righteousness with Healing in His Tassels

Mark 5:29-43, Matthew 9:27-36 | A woman is alienated from society for 12 years for being unclean. A 12-year old dies. Jesus has a solution for both, but it involves touching. The societal problem is that by touching them, Jesus contracts their uncleanness. But isn’t that what Jesus has come to do? Jesus has come to take our uncleanness upon himself and to exchange if for his purity. Follow along with the Lesson Worksheet. This is a public episode.

Ep.77 | When Being Left Behind by Jesus is a Good Thing

Mark 5:15-28 | Jesus travelled to a Gentile, demon-filled land so that he could heal the guy with thousands of demons only to leave him there alone to be a witness to people who weren’t too crazy about Jesus when he left. When Jesus crosses the lake, he encounters two people with very different, yet challenging issues and huge faith. Follow along with the Lesson Worksheet. This is a public episode.

Ep.76 | The Great Calm after the Storm (or 2,000 squealing demon-possessed pigs)

Mark 4:35-5:14 | Either Jesus is really sound sleeper, or Jesus is trying to tell us something about the storms of our lives. Maybe it’s both. Regardless, Jesus can sleep through the storms that threaten to kill us. He’s not impressed. Like an unruly child, he rebukes our storms and accomplishes a “great calm.” For that matter, he’s not all that impressed with a legion of demons! Follow along with the Lesson Worksheet.

Ep.75 | What's it Worth to Follow Jesus?

Matthew 13:44-52 | Jesus continues his parables with two about the value of discipleship. In both, he shows that living the kingdom life is more valuable than everything else we have. He tells a parable about those who are gathered with us in the kingdom, and it’s not all good news. Toss in something old and something new and that’ll close up this round of parables with Jesus.

Ep.74 | Be Patient, this is Going to be Huge

Matthew 13:24-35, Mark 4:26-29 | A wise missionary once said, “What don’t start small, don’t get big.” He wasn’t original. Jesus’ parables are recorded to adjust the expectations of the people. The Messianic age had arrived, but not in the way they may want it or in the timeframe they desire. However, when it come in it’s fullness, it’s going to be huge!

Ep. 73 | Allowing Space for Kingdom Growth

Matthew 13:3-17, Mark 4:21-22 | The parables of Jesus help us to attach a nugget of teaching to a story that allows it to stick in our minds. What can we expect when we share with others about the kingdom of heaven? Should we only share that good news with the people we think are ready to hear it? Jesus has the answer in a simple, powerful story. Follow along with the Lesson Worksheet. This is a public episode.

Ep.72 | A Family Intervention Turned Teaching Moment

Luke 8:1-3, Matthew 12:46-13:3 | Jesus pushed the envelope on many social norms. He gathered women as disciples who assisted in the funding of the mission. He taught openly so that even the poor and the oppressed could learn about God’s kingdom. He also expanded our idea of family, centering our identity in our Father the Creator. This teaching came about when Jesus’ mother and brothers decided they needed to bring crazy Jesus back home to Nazareth… Follow along with the Lesson Worksheet. This is a public episode.
