He Had it Coming...and So Do We

What does it mean for a person, an idea, or a movement to have life beyond a death? It’s inspiring to witness when scraps and threads are picked up and lived out in a way that inspires not just new life, but widespread transformation. What part of the Jesus movement feels worthy of picking up and risking relative comfort to make real in our communities? This may be a good moment for us to really ask ourselves this question…

He Had it Coming...the Breaking

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.

He Had it Coming...the Fame

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!
