It’s one thing to talk about the virtue of vulnerability and another entirely to live it out. In this episode, Ian McConnell helps us wrestle a bit with the same thing Jesus’ disciples did: that gentle, tangible love acted out through us is as subversive and impactful as anything. It turns out, what Jesus was teaching isn’t somebody else’s job.

What kind of hero do we really want— and what kind of reality are we hoping for? On Palm Sunday, Jesus enters Jerusalem not with dominance but through a subversive act that disrupts both empire and expectation. How does the thirst for power distort our freedom— and what does it mean that Jesus refuses to play the game? Ian McConnell gets right into it!

What if you could separate yourself from the uncomfortable parts of life—the suffering of others, the weight of injustice—simply by choosing not to see them? Severance gives us a haunting glimpse into how privilege works, allowing some to live in comfort while others bear the cost. What does it mean to use our power not for avoidance, but for justice in our community?
