The Cast of Characters: Part 1 - Team Dragon

There are so many characters who play a unique part in John's Vision of Jesus in Revelation, and so we start off by discussing some of the characters who make up "Team Dragon" and how they are drawing us into the divine imagination of Revelation and what Jesus is revealing about himself!

How To Read Revelation

The Book of Revelation can feel so strange and intimidating to people. Is it a code that needs to be cracked? A secret insight into the return of Jesus? A mystical delusion? Or is it simply a vision of hope chock-full of powerful symbols meant to inspire our imagination about the kingdom of God! Travis and Eli sit down to discuss several practical tips for reading the apocalyptic literature of the Book of Revelation.

Fruit To Root

Travis and I sit down to discuss the concept of Fruit To Root, pioneered by Jeff Vanderstelt in his book Saturate! We discuss the importance of tracing the fruit we see in our lives back to it's root beliefs so that we might meet with the Holy Spirit to find the truth that would lead us to seeing the Fruit of The Spirit produced instead.

Gathered & Scattered

It tends to feel a lot more comfortable to think about and experience the Holy Spirit when we're gathered as the church. In our weekend Worship Services and Prayer Meetings, but the reality is there is a special kind of reward that the Holy Spirit has for us while the church is scattered. He strengthens and clarifies our identity, he convicts us of sin and leads us to repentance, and he sends us out into the world with renewed purpose!

Forming a Theology of Technology

The advent and rapid development of modern technology have created a unique context in which we must listen to God! In that context, we need a strategy to be primarily shaped by the Holy Spirit rather than our devices! In this episode, we offer a simple challenge: to develop a theology of technology and to commit to principles that help ensure we are first and foremost formed by Jesus.
