super|natural: Drawing Outside the Lines

Does God “belong” to the institution of religion? Are “God” and “church” the same thing with different shapes? In this episode, Ian McConnell (with some help from Heidi Esposito) helps us find some fresh ways to enter into this conversation.

super|natural: Supernatural, or Super|Natural?

Is God supernatural, or as close and natural as our own breath? In a time where many claims about God are being made to bolster many agendas, it seems like a good time to affirm the diversity of thought around what is often called, “God.”

Cease and Resist | Release

To “cease and resist” is ultimately about liberation; about being ready for the world and our place in it, but not being held hostage by it. What would it be like to release the need to control, to know more and do more and be more than is healthy? We are made for so much more than what is controllable!

Cease and Resist | Commune

Rest can sometimes feel like we are putting burdens on others; if I rest, then someone else has to work harder. However, when done well, sabbath can be an invitation to create healthy communities that together find balance in the interplay of work and rest. 

Cease and Resist | Delight

Life isn’t meant to just make us tired! It’s meant to make us happy. Deeply happy. The kind of happy we are told we can buy or achieve but that really only requires us to do one thing: stop. Are you ready to be surprised by the gratuitous goodness that is always growing in and around you?

Cease and Resist | Restore

Practicing sabbath cracks open the possibility of letting ourselves (and everything around us) go a bit wild… what would be possible if we experienced restoration?

Cease and Resist | Sabbath 101

Does it feel like there’s too much going on to pause what you’re doing? What if stopping was one of the most effective ways to join the resistance? Together, let's get into the concept of "sabbath," reclaim it a bit, and let it pick away at "the way things are" as we move forward towards how things could be.

Unearthed | Unearthing Us with Joe Davis

As we closed out our Unearthed conversation, we welcomed Joe Davis back to help facilitate a time of artistic reflection and processing; to notice what came up, metabolize it, and bless it.
