Bonus Episode: Remember, Remember, Remember the Signs!

Bonus Episode: Remember, Remember, Remember the Signs!

In The Silver Chair (Book 6 of Narnia), Aslan warns Jill to remember the signs because once she returns to Narnia, distraction and confusion will make remembering really hard. This short reflection discusses why forgetfulness is one of the central struggles of the human experience and how practices of remembering help us stay rooted when life gets crazy.

S2E21: The Parable of the Persistent Widow: This One Isn't About Being Annoying

In Luke 18, Jesus tells a weird story about a corrupt judge, a pesky widow, and a persistence that refuses to go down without a fight. In this episode, we explore why the parable is not about annoying God into answering our prayers, but about trusting the just and compassionate character of God while continuing to pursue mercy, justice, and hope in a weary world.

S2E20: Spiritual Formation (Part 1?) with Benji Horning

In this episode of Echo Collective, I sit down with Benji Horning for a thoughtful conversation about spiritual formation, not as a cultural buzzword, but as an ancient way of life. Together, we explore humility, the voice of the Spirit, the wisdom of the early church (among other things), and the ways we are all being formed by the world around us. At the center of it all is the invitation to become more deeply rooted in Christ and, mysteriously, more fully ourselves. Don't miss it.

Bonus Narnia Episode: Jill Pole and The Lion...Down by the River!

This episode is quite simply a brief meditation from a book that I have been re-reading: The Silver Chair by C.S.Lewis. I thought it would make a great mini-episode. Thanks for tuning in.

S2E18: The Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus - A Great Reversal

Jesus tells a haunting story about a rich man who insulates himself from the suffering outside of his privileged life. In this episode of Echo Collective, we explore the parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus, the danger of separation, and what happens when wealth, comfort, and convenience keep us from truly seeing the suffering of people right next to us.
