    The God Who Runs | What Abba Actually Looks Like

    He had been the life of the room not long ago. Friends everywhere. Laughter at every table. Wherever he went, the good times followed. He was generous. He had money, and he spent it freely. And then the money ran out. And the room emptied. Not one phone call. Not one check-in. Not one person standing with him. In that silence — sitting in a field feeding pigs, far from everything he had known — a thought broke through for the first time in a long time. My father's servants eat better than this. Episode 7 of ABA The Seed follows the most detailed parable Jesus ever told. And before we get to the story, we need to understand who Jesus is telling it to — because the audience changes everything. He is eating with tax collectors and sinners. The religious leaders are muttering outside. And Jesus responds with a story about a father and two sons that dismantles everything they thought they knew about how God relates to the unworthy. A younger son who insults his father and demands his inheritance early. A father who gives it anyway. A far country. A famine. A field of pigs. And then — a son who comes to himself. And a father who was watching the road. Who sees him while he is still far off. Who runs. Who restores before the performance is complete. Who goes out — twice — toward two different sons in two different kinds of lostness. We have spent six episodes watching a God who moves toward humanity. Episode 7 is Jesus showing us what that movement looks like with a human face. The theology was never abstract. It was always this personal. This is ABA The Seed — a podcast for everyone who was told their questions were too dangerous. My name is Aaron. And we are still growing. 🌱

    The Weight of His Coming — The Kavod Arc

    There is a Hebrew word at the centre of this episode that most people raised in church have been taught incorrectly. The word is Kavod. It is translated "glory." But its root meaning is not light, radiance, or a spectacular visual display. It means heavy. Weight. Substance. The quality of something that has real, undeniable presence — that reorganises everything around it simply by being what it is. Episode 6 of ABA The Seed traces one of the most extraordinary movements in all of Scripture — the Kavod of God moving deliberately and relentlessly through history toward humanity. We begin in Exodus, where Moses asks to see it — not a miracle, not a sign, but the full weight of who God actually is. We watch it fill the Tabernacle so completely that no one can enter. We hear Isaiah declare that the whole earth is full of it — that it was never contained in any building. And then we arrive in Ezekiel. Where the Kavod departs from the Temple. But not quickly. It moves in stages. It pauses at each threshold. The rabbis counted ten stages of departure — at each one, God lingering. Waiting. Giving every opportunity for the people to turn back. And when it finally stops, it stops on the Mount of Olives. Still waiting. A God who hesitates before He leaves is not an impersonal Monad. That is a Father who does not want to go. But the story does not end with departure. Through Zechariah, God signs a promise with His own Name — Ehyeh — I will be the Kavod in your midst. Personally. Not in a building. That promise moves through John 1:14, through Pentecost, through the seven spirits sent into all the earth in Revelation 5:6, until Paul looks at everything coming and calls it an eternal weight of glory that makes every present suffering feel like nothing. The Kavod never stopped moving. It moved toward us — until it arrived inside us. This is ABA The Seed — a podcast for everyone who was told their questions were too dangerous. My name is Aaron. And we are still growing. 🌱
