She resonates with this man in Mark’s Gospel who boldly heals in Christ’s name while the insiders try to invalidate his ministry. But the hospitality of Jesus is surprising, inclusive, and reciprocal. About the healer and about K...

S5E8: "It's Not Fair" with Dr. Jen Hale Christy
May 08, 2021 22:00 - 24 minutes - 17.1 MBSaturday, May 8, 2021 PreacHer Podcast PreacHer: Dr. Jen Hale Christy Summary: God tells Jonah to go. And the funny thing is, when you think about modern-day missionaries, they have a really hard time getting funding to go to places that may not be receptive. But with Jonah--he knows that they’ll turn from their ways, that they’ll repent and want to come back to YHWH. There’s no question in his mind that they’ll accept his message. He just doesn’t want to deliver it. It’s not fair. Why shou...
S5E7: "An Uncommon Fairytale" with Christine Fox Parker
March 03, 2021 13:00 - 44 minutes - 30.3 MBS5E7: Hosea - An Uncommon Fairytale Wednesday, March 3, 2021 PreacHer Podcast PreacHer: Christine Fox Parker Summary: The book of Hosea has long been one of my favorite stories. The first three chapters especially--though dark and haunting--contain the most beautiful story of love ever. It is not the story of Hosea loving Gomer despite her prostitution. Rather, it is God loving me despite mine. It is the timeless story of the persons and people of God believing themselves to be faithful to ...
S5E6: “Oh, that I knew where I might find God” with Dr. Naomi Walters
August 05, 2020 12:00 - 49 minutes - 33.9 MBS5E6: “Oh, that I knew where I might find God” with Dr. Naomi Walters Wednesday, August 5, 2020 PreacHer Podcast PreacHer: Dr. Naomi Walters Summary: What is the relationship between doubt and faith? Although common use of these concepts pits them as opposites, the story of Job in the Hebrew Bible gives us another way to think about it. In so doing, it frees us all to live with God more honestly, for the sake of ourselves and the world. Resources + Social Media Handles: Naomi on FB Naom...

This sermon explores the relationship between inclusive, diverse community, and God's name "El Roi" (the God who sees me). In order to create a thriving, diverse community, the church must be committed to seeing others and including them, much like God does throughout the Bible. We can feel equipped for this task by regularly re...

This tragic and ultimately hope-filled story gives Bible-believing people permission to both lament our misfortune and believe that God may yet have ...

One might expect this beginning to be heroically auspicious as it derives from the ministry of the most beloved Paul. However, this particular beginning emerges far more relatable from the awareness of a suffering journ...
S4E9: “Cracking Our Shins on Altars” with Beth Bowers
June 10, 2020 12:00 - 32 minutes - 22.1 MBS4E9: “Cracking Our Shins on Altars” with Beth Bowers Wednesday, June 10, 2020 PreacHer Podcast PreacHer: Beth Bowers Summary: Will you join me on a walk? Acts 17 is a well-known and well-loved text for many. The question I have wrestled with while listening to it is this: What did Athens give to Paul? In my life, a journey up Mt Kilimanjaro created the space for an encounter with the Divine. Let’s walk together and be on the lookout for God to show up. Resources + Social Media Handles:...
S4E8: “Faith Without Works is Dead(ly)” with Dr. Mallory Wyckoff
June 04, 2020 03:00 - 45 minutes - 31.2 MBS4E8: “Faith Without Works is Dead(ly)” with Dr. Mallory Wyckoff Wednesday, June 3, 2020 PreacHer Podcast PreacHer: Dr. Mallory Wyckoff Summary: If you’ve ever read the book of James, you know that the author makes a strong case for practicing what you preach, putting your money where your mouth is, letting your actions speak louder than your words. And the thing is, all those deeply-held convictions that never materialize in tangible action are dangerous. Faith without works isn’t just de...

S4E6: “A Tale of Three Conversions” with Dr. Sara Barton
May 20, 2020 18:00 - 51 minutes - 35.3 MBS4E6: “A Tale of Three Conversions” with Dr. Sara Barton Wednesday, May 20, 2020 PreacHer Podcast PreacHer: Dr. Sara Barton Summary: When Luke constructed Acts 10 and 11, he very specifically decided to tell a story twice from two different perspectives, the narrator and Peter. The story is so central to Acts – and to the Gospel in the big picture - that it needed to be double-underlined for us. Think of it as a form of highlighting before highlighters existed. So, we pay double attention ...
S4E5: "You Are Not God's Punchline" with Rhesa Higgins
May 13, 2020 12:00 - 32 minutes - 22.4 MBS4E5: “You Are Not God’s Punchline” with Rhesa Higgins Wednesday, May 13, 2020 PreacHer Podcast PreacHer: Rhesa Higgins Summary: Acts 12 is one of those stories that gets told time and time again, as the early church reminds themselves of what they knew to be true--the Kingdom of God will eventually prevail. But also, there’s this minor character who might actually be the hero in hiding. All of this has us asking ourselves: whose voice have we discounted, or silenced in proclaiming the goo...

Yeah, me neither. But it happened. More than once. Not just Jesus, others too.

S4E2: “Rethinking Pedestals” with Kaitlin Shetler
April 22, 2020 15:00 - 34 minutes - 23.9 MBS4E2: “Rethinking Pedestals” with Kaitlin Shetler Wednesday, April 22, 2020 PreacHer Podcast PreacHer: Kaitlin Shetler Summary: The conversion story of Paul sets the stage for the exponential growth of the church and at least half of the letters we read in the New Testament. It’s an exciting and harrowing tale of a murderer turned Christian, a fundamentalist accuser turned preacher, a spiritually blind man turned woke. But also, let’s not be so quick to gloss over who he was as “Saul.” How...

But did he really mean it? Did he *actually* mean everyone is included? Yes. Yes he did. In this episode we take a ride in a royal chariot to learn God’s unconditional acceptance and embrace of everyone. Resources + Social Media Handles:...

Rather, he retells Israel's history in order to expose their pattern of rejecting prophets and leaders. In a moment of radical truth-telling, Stephen beseeches the crowd to break the cycle of their ancestors, and to consecrate their hearts to ...

Will they accept and affirm that this is the work of God? The questions are for all of us too (especially the religious leaders among us): Will we set aside our insecurities and our defensiveness? Will we admit that we aren’t reall...

It’s about a major upset like the Patriots *not* being in the superbowl this year. No, more major than that. It’s about getting things wrong about who’s in and who’s out. It’s about the astonishing faith of a couple of rebels in the name of Jesus that sends a...
