No Time Like the Present

There are many would-be followers of Jesus who struggle to understand that the way he walks is often fraught with challenges and even suffering. In the Gospel of Luke 9:51-62, Jesus tells his disciples, and others nearby, that the path he walks will call them into discomfort. He emphasizes how high the stakes are; a calling more important that even our familial ties. This episode unpacks these themes.

Children on Crosses

Take a breath and buckle up. This one is a doozy. Not only is the passage from the Bible we’ll consider quite unpleasant, it forces us to reckon with similar unpleasant things today; specifically, the slaughter of children in the name of our wars. This episode considers a story from the book of 2 Samuel 21:1-14 in which a woman named Rizpah fought for the dignity of her children and of others.

Let’s Show Them

In this episode, we consider one of Jesus’ most famous commandments. He commanded us to love one another, and that by this love, others would know that we are followers of Jesus.

Now, It’s Ours

This episode is called, “Now, It’s Ours.” But what is ours, exactly? After reading this story, we find that ours is the power to call life from unexpected or dead places. What Jesus had the power to do in life, so now does the Church to proclaim life in the midst of grieving communities scrapping for hope. This episode is about these things.

I Don’t Wanna Fish

This episode reflects on a story as told in the Gospel of John 21:1-19. In this story, Jesus meets with his disciples after a long night of fishing. Using their vocation as a metaphor, he called them to join him in his life-giving, albeit exhausting, mission. How might we receive this call today? What can it mean in 2025? This episode explores these questions. In the meantime, if you’d like to learn more about Northwood Christian Church, please visit our website at www.indyncc.org [http://www.indyncc.org].
