The Lateral Shift Trap

In this episode, I talk about the difference between a lateral and forward shift. With the help from Wendell Berry, I talk about what the lateral shift looks like before exploring what a community of faith might look like that takes a forward step.

Where there are No Kings

In this episode, I explore Jesus' statement that "the first will be last, and the last will be first." Taken at face value, is Jesus suggesting moving the oppressed/oppressor around while maintaining the same system? And how does this relate to who gets to be king?

Worship Ain't a Light Switch

Worship isn't a light switch we cut on during a one-hour worship service and cut off when we leave. When we understand Jesus' answer to the Samaritan woman, our entire concept of worship and sacred spaces is challenged.

The War Prayer

Have you ever considred how positively answered prayers might negatively affect others? For example, if you pray for your team to lose, then you're praying for the other team to win. If you pray for the hurricane to change directions, it might just go towards a different region. In Mark Twain's challlenging piece "The War Prayer," he explores what happens when we pray for victory in war.
