    472 - To Be Human - Part Twenty: Snakebitten

    To Be Human - Part Twenty: Snakebitten. Today, we explore the origin story of the powers in Genesis, focusing on the serpent and the choice between following Yahweh's wisdom or defining good and evil for oneself. We look at the story of Cain and Abel as an example of the ongoing conflict between the seed of the woman and the seed of the serpent. Further, we look at the theme of the serpent and its influence throughout biblical narratives. It begins with the story of Adam and Eve in Genesis, where sin enters the world through the serpent's temptation. This theme continues in Genesis 6 with the Nephilim, who are the offspring of the sons of God and the daughters of humans. The conversation then highlights how this pattern of succumbing to the serpent's temptation repeats throughout biblical history, with figures like Cain, Solomon, and even David. However, Jesus breaks this pattern by resisting the serpent's temptation in the wilderness. Spiritual warfare! The importance of resisting social behaviors that dehumanize and divide! The need to redefine our roles and resist in a way that promotes human flourishing and breaks destructive cycles! First, we spend time lamenting and discussing the recent school shooting in Atlanta and our frustration with the lack of action on gun violence. We question the Christian position on guns and lament the normalization of school shootings. 00:00 - Intro 02:20 - Discussion on the School Shooting in Atlanta 13:30 - Genesis As always, we encourage and would love discussion as we pursue.

    471 - To Be Human - Part Nineteen: Union of the Snake

    To Be Human - Part Nineteen: Union of the Snake. Well, here we go. Today, the identity of the serpent in the Garden of Eden is examined, suggesting that it may represent a spiritual being rather than a literal snake (whaaaaaaat?). Mike and Tim discuss the concept of enmity between the serpent and the woman's seed and explore the idea of seed as both physical descendants and those who image God. We also discuss the conflict between different offspring throughout the book of Genesis, highlighting the war between the seed of the serpent and the seed of God. What is the significance of Jesus as the ultimate he who images God and resists the serpent's temptations? The conversation ends with a discussion on the role of Adam and Eve as archetypes and representative humans. But first, we wrestle with a really sincere email about mental health and the shame that can be associated with medication. The emailer is struggling with depression and anger and wonders if relying on medication is a lack of faith. We discuss the importance of seeking help for mental health issues and emphasize that there is nothing wrong with using medication or therapy. We also address the stigma surrounding mental health in Christian communities and encourage the listener to continue fighting for their well-being. Further, the conversation explores the concept of parenting and the fear and pressure that comes with it as well as the harmful effects of control and the importance of autonomy in parenting. The conversation also delves into the societal expectations and shame associated with parenting, as well as the need for self-care and mental health support for parents. TIMESTAMPS! 00:00 - Intro 04:40 - Email on Mental Health and Medication 35:30 - Genesis Three and the Snake As always, we encourage and would love discussion as we pursue.

    470 - A Violent God? - with Dr. Timothy Gombis

    A Violent God? Today Mike and Tim are joined by the other Tim to discuss various topics, including Gombis's experience teaching kindergarten, the performance of the Cubs and Giants, and the small issue of violence in the Old Testament. Together, we explore different perspectives on reconciling the violence in the Old Testament with Jesus' teachings in the New Testament. Gombis offers insights into how the Old Testament portrays God's judgment and the role of Israel as His agents, while acknowledging the complexity of the issue and the need for further exploration. The conversation explores the tension between the violent portrayals of God in the Old Testament and the message of love and hospitality in the New Testament. We look at various interpretations and explanations for these portrayals, including the idea of God accommodating to the cultural context of the time, while emphasizing the importance of the church practicing radical hospitality and caring for the marginalized and oppressed. This encourages a shift in perspective from seeing acts of service as a duty to seeing them as encounters with Jesus and opportunities for solidarity. Lastly, we discuss the importance of approaching marginalized communities with a posture of receiving rather than saving, emphasizing the need to see the world through the eyes of those on the margins and to treat them with dignity and respect. Phew. As always, we encourage and would love discussion as we pursue. Feel free to email in questions to hello@voxpodcast.com, and to engage the conversation on Facebook and Instagram.

    469 - To Be Human - Part Eighteen: In Hiding

    To Be Human - Part Eighteen: In Hiding. In this conversation, Mike Erre and Timothy John Stafford discuss various topics, including pickleball injuries, Denny's menu items, and their perspectives on death... For real, though, we spend some time on the story of Adam and Eve in Genesis, focusing on the fear of the Lord. We explore the meaning of fear in the context of encountering something beyond human comprehension and the awe and reverence that comes with it. What is the importance of understanding God's character as one who invites and desires participation rather than reacting with anger and punishment? How does the concept of the fear of the Lord connect to wisdom? We dive into the story of Adam and Eve in Genesis 3 and how their fear and shame resulted from their disobedience. The discussion also touches on the role of shame in the church and the importance of coming out of hiding and finding healing. First, we discuss a church flyer that went viral with some serious misogynistic vibes. How is this still a thing? 00:00 - Intro 06:15 - Misogynistic Church Flyer lament 11:00 - Genesis 3 As always, we encourage and would love discussion as we pursue.

    468 - To Be Human - Part Seventeen: Snakes on a Plain

    To Be Human - Part Seventeen: Snakes on a Plain. Today Mike and Tim dive into Genesis 3! There are some interesting themes of wisdom, prudence, and the fall of humanity and the serpent! What is the significance of the serpent's role and the parallel between the serpent and Adam and Eve. They also touch on the problem of evil and the implications of wisdom in the biblical narrative. First, our fearless heroes discuss the concept of salvation and its definition. They explore the idea of salvation as embodied participation in new creation, emphasizing the importance of being fully human and imaging God in the world. They highlight the need for an understanding of salvation that goes beyond personal forgiveness of sins and focuses on the restoration of God's reign on earth. 00:00 - Intro 05:15 - Email on the definition of 'salvation.' 24:40 - Genesis 3 As always, we encourage and would love discussion as we pursue.

    467 - Outrage Against the Machine

    Outrage Against the Machine. Hi. Today, Mike and Tim take a dive into the week in outrage, the outrage over that outrage and the outrage about the outrage over the initial outrage... got it? Does anybody read this...? Was it a last supper depiction? Is that blasphemous? Does it matter? They also touch on the boxing controversy that has made everyone online an expert on gender. How can we change the way we approach sensitive conversations and how can we avoid the outrage? First, Mike and Tim look at a few emails: Podcast format and content and the importance of respecting complexity and nuance in biblical subjects and express their commitment to making the podcast more accessible and shareable. Progressive revelation of God throughout history and the need to be gracious towards our faithful ancestors. The role of social media in the lives of Christians and the potential for it to malform us. A pastor publicly addressing his child's sin and the potential harm it can cause. A lot to cover and chat about. 00:00 - Intro 04:00 - Emails 27:45 - Olympic Outrage As always, we encourage and would love discussion as we pursue.
