Luke 24:44-53

Pastors Tim and Jason sit down with the Rev. Khristi Lauren Adams, best-selling author, preacher, and dean, to set the scene of Jesus' Farewell Discourses from John (chapters 13-15), asking the question: what would you do for your last meal? With whom would you spend it? How does all this affect what Jesus is saying?

Pastors Tim and Tuhina sit down with The engaging and affirming Rev. Joseph Kim, lead pastor of Bothell United Methodist Church in Bothell, Washington, to talk about this so-called "Low" Sunday, the beautiful B-side of Gospel stories, and what it could look like to turn Easter itself upside-down.

Second Sunday of Easter
John 20:19-31

Pastors Jason and Tuhina talk to the Rev. Dr. Rob Lee about that high holy (and ancient) day of Easter Vigil – the power of its liturgy, the uniqueness of its story, and the terricitement of its reality.

Pastors Tuhina and Jason sit down with friend of the pod and podcaster extraordinaire in her own right, the Rev. Colleen Montgomery, to talk about Good Friday – what it might be like to write a eulogy for Jesus, the Gospel of John and anti-Semitism, and how Good Friday is its own kind of Eucharist.

Good Friday
John 18:1-19:47

The Anam Cara Three (Pastors Tim, Tuhina, and Jason) talk about the frightening nature of freedom, what we think can save us, and the power of rethinking what you always thought you knew. Down that way lies liberation.
