Living Resurrection Life

Vacations

As summer begins and many prepare for travel, vacation, and time away, this week’s Dulin Weekly Podcast reflects on the sacred invitation hidden within rest itself. James explores Sabbath, the rhythms of nature, awe and wonder, and the possibility of reconnecting with God through ocean waves, mountain breezes, sunsets, friendship, and stillness. What if time away became more than escape? What if it became an opportunity to recollect yourself, rediscover peace, and remember that you are already part of the beauty unfolding all around you?

Give Us Today the Bread that Is Needful

In this week’s Dulin Weekly Podcast, Pastor James reflects on the phrase “give us today the bread that is needful” from the Lord’s Prayer, exploring how “bread” means more than physical nourishment. Drawing from the richness of the Aramaic tradition, he reflects on the ways God sustains us each day through wisdom, insight, emotional strength, patience, courage, and attentiveness to the sacred within ordinary life. Whether facing grief, uncertainty, difficult conversations, or simply the demands of daily living, the episode invites listeners to pause and ask: What is truly needful for today? Through prayer and awareness, we become more open to recognizing the grace, strength, and guidance already being offered along the journey of faith.

Be Dulin Church

In this week’s Dulin Weekly Podcast, Pastor James reflects on what it really means to “be the church.” Dulin Church is more than a building or a Sunday gathering—it is a living community of people connected through love, service, kindness, and shared purpose. From volunteers and musicians to parents, students, workers, and neighbors, each person embodies the spirit of Christ wherever they go. This episode invites listeners to reflect on a simple but powerful question: “Where was I the church today?”

Living Resurrection Life

In this week’s Dulin Weekly Podcast, James reflects on what it means to live a resurrection life during the Easter season. Resurrection, he suggests, is not only about life after death but about the new quality of life that emerges when we let go of ego, judgment, fear, and separation. Through humility, compassion, community, and the sharing of our gifts, we participate in the ongoing work of God in the world. This episode invites listeners to consider how they are making resurrection real in everyday life through love, generosity, and service.

Where Do You See God?

This week on the Dulin Weekly Podcast, Pastor James invites us to shift the question from “Where is God?” to “Why aren’t we seeing God where we already are?” Reflecting on everyday moments—from traffic and neighborhood walks to quiet breathing and encounters with others—he reminds us that God is not confined to specific places but is present in all things, even in moments of stress, beauty, and disagreement. Drawing on the connection between breath and spirit, he encourages listeners to become more attentive to the divine presence within and around them. Rather than fear, we are invited into awe and wonder—recognizing that every encounter, from a flower breaking through concrete to a conversation with a stranger, can become a glimpse of God. This week, consider offering your own “reports from the field” by noticing where you encounter the sacred in daily life.
