Jesus did not arrive safely, comfortably, or legally secure. He fled by night, crossed borders, and lived in fear of returning home—because a politician wanted him dead. The Gospel doesn’t leave us room to sanitize this reality. If how we treat refugees is how we treat Jesus, then the question isn’t whether Christ was a…
Like I said, I’ll be releasing quite a bit of concentration music for a bit. The tracks are easy to make and people tend to find them beneficial to their lives, so why not 🙂 Today’s release is called The Road to Emmaus.
Ideology and nostalgia are dangerous bedfellows. Our love for the “good ol’ days” is a powerful drug that blinds us to momentum and justice. The Hebrews wanted the splendor of Jerusalem back, but as the prophets pointed out, Jerusalem wasn’t splendid for many. German leaders preached that their country would find a better future if…
I’ll be pumping out some ambient music in the upcoming days and weeks, so if you need some music to concentrate with, meditate with, pray with, or sleep with, here are some Bible-themed tracks for you and the Holy Spirit to do your thing.
In this message, Jamin shares several lists from Amy Kenny’s book, “My Body is Not a Prayer Request,” to help us get a better social understanding of what disabled people deal with in life and the church. Jamin then encourages us to love our disabled brothers and sisters in better, non-ableist ways—exactly as they are.
Alright worship leaders, church leaders, musicians and Holy Spirit enthusiasts! I’ve got a new audiobook out called Spirit Infused Worship and I’ll give you a free code to get it on Audible for free! Just leave a comment and a way to contact you and I’ll get it your way 🙂
While this conversation is probably better had around concepts like cloning or genetic manipulation, I think the conversation is somewhat applicable to AI once it’s been taken to its science-fiction extreme. We’ve all seen movies where robots start to wonder if they have souls and humans begin to wonder as well. Some of these stories…
Question: Proverbs 22:6. I recently had a heavy conversation with some folks whose children are no longer/not currently living life in surrender to God. Apart from the idea of “were they really trained up in the way they should go”, how do we understand this verse, it’s context, and the reality of “prodigals” or (adult) children…
Question: How can it be beneficial for a non-clergy person to read the Bible at home when it is so easy to misunderstand and so harmful if those misunderstandings are implemented? Answer: Ooo, good question. It’s been noted by many that it may have been a dangerous idea to give everyone a Bible, since throughout…
Question: If Jesus was fully human, did he experience the hormonal and chemical imbalances that are part of our human experience? Was he neurologically supernatural, or was his brain bound the same physical boundaries that ours are bound by? Answer: Great question. Yes, Jesus experienced all of the fullness of humanity that we did. Imagine…
Question: I always love asking people where they think Cain’s wife came from. Answer: Yeah, Cain goes on to build a city, so it seems pretty clear that there are more people around than just Adam and Eve, and the Bible is content with not explaining how this is. This is because, in part, the…
