Beschreibung

In Matthew 13;24-30, 36-43, we get a rare glimpse of Jesus explaining his parable to us. Jesus tells the crowd about a farmer sowing wheat, while his enemy follows and sows weeds among the wheat. The Farmer allows both to grow simultaneously, then separates them at harvest time. Have a listen to the Reverend Emily Collette's sermon on God's pursuit of us and invitation to do Holy work with God.

Episode On the Road Again | If I'm already spiritual, then why do I have to show up on Sundays? Cover

On the Road Again | If I'm already spiritual, then why do I have to show up on Sundays?

On this episode of "On the Road Again," Emily and Jack to discuss the difference between spirituality and religion, and the purpose of being in a Christian community. Jack and Emily suggest that people drift from organized religion due to hypocrisy or institutional harm, but argue that true spirituality still relies on community, as God's own nature (and humanity's design) is inherently communal. Flipping the question, they discuss how religion can lose its spiritual core when it becomes a tool for power and self-righteousness, as seen with the Pharisees. Ultimately, they argue church membership matters because it de-centers the self. Dive in for inspiration and encouragement! On the next episode, Ashley Monachelli with join Emily to discuss the Eucahrist.
