S5 E15: What Does “Faith Over Fear” Actually Mean?

S5 E18: New Stuff-Things We’ve Been Learning

This week’s conversation is just Peter and Suah talking about new things that they’ve been learning. The topics are broad and the attention spans short, but we think God’s been teaching us some good stuff these past few weeks. Tune in to listen!

S5 E17: Interview with Jerome Dillard

We have an awesome guest with us this week! Jerome Dillard is Executive Director and one of the Founders of EXPO (Ex-Prisoners Organizing). In this episode, he shares his incredible story of incarceration, re-entry and God’s redemptive work in his life. He also shares about the work that he champions through EXPO, an organization that seeks to end mass incarceration, eliminate all forms of structural discrimination against formerly incarcerated people, and restore formerly incarcerated people to full participation in the life of our communities. Tune in for an episode you won’t forget.

S5 E16: If Coveting is a Sin, Is it a Sin to Want Things?

Every day, we are bombarded with advertisements for products that promise a better life. Social Media paints everyone’s grass as greener than our own. We know that the tenth commandment tells us that we “shall not covet,” but is it actually possible to live without “wanting?” Is the desire for things actually a sin? This week, Peter and Suah discuss their own thoughts on this commandment and what they believe it actually means.

S5 E15: What Does “Faith Over Fear” Actually Mean?

I’m sure many of you, whether on t-shirts or inspirational wall decor, have come across this idea of “faith over fear.” This idea that fear is the result of insufficient faith is very common-place, but in a world full of uncertainty, how can one go through life without experiencing fear at all? How can we reconcile these two concepts? How should a Christian understand faith and fear? Tune in to this week’s episode to get our takes.

S5 E14: Part 2 - Interview with Pastor Nancy Sugikawa

This week, we have one of our favorite guests ever - Pastor Nancy Sugikawa - back on the show to continue her story where we left off. It was a real cliffhanger when we ended Part I, so we could not wait any longer to air this second part. We just want to say: this is the stuff of k-dramas. Of course, because it’s Pastor Nancy, there is plenty of sage insight and words of grace. You do not want to miss this! Nancy can be reached at nancy@encountereastside.org.
