    E02: Our Happy, Fierce Friend

    E02: Our Happy, Fierce Friend

    These are unsettling and threatening times. And while many have sought to reduce God to a comfortable, convenient size; we celebrate the God who is with us: good, happy, fierce, unrivaled, and devoted to doing us great good!

    E03: Death Starts Working Backwards: The Immortal Here

    E03: Death Starts Working Backwards: The Immortal Here

    The immortality of the human soul—both ours and others—changes everything. This reality stands in stark contrast to our secular age and the religion of "right now" offering us a life of significance and purpose as we pursue the happiness and holiness of our Maker, who made us in His image and took on our image to restore His image in us. Here is new vision of the enchantment and transforming value of every small thing in everyday life.

    E04: Heaven: The Ultimate “Reality” Check

    E04: Heaven: The Ultimate “Reality” Check

    The reality and hope of Heaven, a gloriously remade New Earth, is a promise that runs throughout the Scriptures. It is not wishful thinking or a cop out, but a real and glorious place that redefines our present life and offers us the vision and strength to richly live life now, even in the midst of disappointment, pain, or great trial. The best is yet to come!

    E05: Dark Night of the Soul: Depression and Delight are Friends

    E05: Dark Night of the Soul: Depression and Delight are Friends

    There are too many uncertain days and long dark nights in quarantine.  As Calvin said (Calvin and Hobbes, not the historic theologian): "I think night time is dark so you can imagine your fears with less distraction."  I see it across social media and in loved ones and tugging at my own soul—the dark places, the hard nights, the battering ram of life in the shadowlands—they all seem darker in isolation, with little fellowship or sunlight or community laughter or free adventure or baseball.  Depression is real—dark nights of the soul are the familiar experience of many. Is there grace to find gladness in the midst of grief?

    E06: You Live in Fear of Doing Something... God's Extravagance & Our Freedom

    E06: You Live in Fear of Doing Something... God's Extravagance & Our Freedom

    In my experience, a great many (maybe even a majority) of Christians live in fear or at least in uncertainty of whether good things will come or continue for them and if God and others will keep liking them...depending upon, of course, how well they perform for God (and other Christians) from day to day. 
    Who is God? Does He want us to make Him happy? Does He want to make us happy? In this episode we consider the implications of some extraordinary words of God, for how we view His heart toward us and the activity of our everyday lives.

Thought provoking- Encouraging- Refreshing

Such beautiful conversation. Encouraging family, beauty, delight. Refreshing perspectives of worldly weights that we all too often carry unnecessarily.
