Traditional banks often lack personalized service, and local businesses struggle to find true partnership in financial institutions. Meanwhile, higher education faces scrutiny over relevance and ROI in a world where information is nearly free. Harry Allen helped launch Studio Bank to blend technology with high-touch service, fueled by community investment. At Belmont, he's applying the same entrepreneurial mindset to modernize university operations and embed practical learning experiences, like a one-of-a-kind partnership with Dolly Parton, into academia. In this episode, Harry L. Allen, co-founder of Studio Bank and now CFO at Belmont University, unpacks the bold vision behind launching a community-first bank in a city dominated by financial giants. He shares the leadership lessons that shaped his journey, how to lead through crisis, and why mentorship is the key to filling today's leadership vacuum. Key Takeaways Leveraging both financial and social capital creates a unique, community-first banking model. High-tech doesn't mean low-touch, Studio Bank fused innovation with personal relationships. Leadership means showing up, especially during crisis. Universities must shift from being information hubs to delivering real-world experience. Succession and mentorship are vital to cultivating the next generation of leaders. Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Harry L.

Soft Heart, Hard Feet – June 29, 2025 14:00

Luke 16: 1-9 RMC's Susan Scott preached this week on what Jesus was trying to do when he spoke in parables. The parables Jesus spoke in are often confusing, indirect, and seldom leave the listener with clear answers to their questions. Why won't Jesus get to the point? However, this storytelling tactic forces the listener to actually listen, ponder, and wrestle in their minds with content of the story. The settings and people in the stories have familiar jobs and roles in Jewish society to draw in the listener, but their unexpected actions require a level of engagement for the listener that precludes the audience from "zoning out". Jesus primarily used two types of parable. One to undercut and derail the accusations of his detractors, and the other to prepare his followers for the radically new kind of kingdom Jesus was ushering in that had nothing to do with their current political subjugation. Furthermore, the parables of Jesus, regardless of the audience, at the end had a punchline that subverted expectations and taught valuable lessons to those with ears to hear. In parables, Jesus told the religious leaders that their obsession with following the law was all a hollow show without any sincere connection to God's will for people to live. Christ's followers in turn were called to live a life of soft hearts and hard feet. A life full of sacrifice, suffering, and radical gift giving that will not make sense to the world, but shows God's love in its fullness . We too must emulate our spiritual forebears and wrestle with these parables so that we may learn to also live with soft hearts and hard feet.…

Experiments of Peace – June 22, 2025 11:57

Matthew 5: 43-48 With the recent American bombing of Iran, we now move into a time filled with tension, fear, calls for war, and calls for reprisal. As Christians we must remember that we are called to a different path than the world. Melissa Florer-Bixler preaches on our Covenant Sunday that we must pay close attention to Jesus' first teachings after his temptation in the desert; we must love our enemies and pray for those that persecute us. Yet the gift of peace that God has given us must be worked out through imperfect vessels, namely pacifists like Mennonites and other Christians who hold the ideal of peace close to heart. And how do we figure out this way of peace? Church is where we gather every Sunday to conduct our experiments of peace. There we try, sometimes fail, learn, and share with each other as we try to pass on God's gift of peace to others. As an intentional community of believers we take the risk of being hurt by each other for the opportunity to heal and to be healed.…

Romans 5: 1-5 On Trinity Sunday Melissa Florer-Bixler preached on the words of Paul in Romans. Paul didn't focus on what the makeup of the Trinity is, but who the persons of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are. Essentially, God is not vengeful, cruel, or indifferent. God, through the trinity, is the giver of gifts. Jesus is the gift that redeems our sins, and the Holy Spirit is our guide and the wellspring of our hope. Who God is, not what, instructs us on how we should treat each other, our neighbors, and how we build together a faithful Church body. If God is the giver of precious gifts, then we must live a life of radical gift giving and receiving that does not count the cost.…

1 Corinthians 3:11 This Sunday RMC's own Jordan Morehouse preached on the foundations of our faith. We often use scripture, tradition, and faith practices to justify all manner of evils against our neighbors. Jordan reminds us that we must be ready to change our actions and views when we see that time honored parts of our theology fail to show God's love in its fullness. As we face uncomfortable inconsistencies in our politics, traditions, and theologies, it can be especially difficult to find God's purpose amidst all of the fear and confusion of our current social, political, and economic environment. Today's scripture and sermon instruct us to look to the life and words of Jesus to help us to interpret what parts of our faith need tearing down and what parts are a solid foundation to build upon, instead of clinging to what we have constructed that is not working to build God's kingdom.…

Swimming Toward Sharks – May 25, 2025 18:53

Scripture: Isaiah 12:1-6 Melissa opened her sermon sharing about a man who helped rescue a friend who was attacked by a shark. He swam directly toward the injured swimmer, putting himself in direct vicinity with the shark. The backstory behind most people who show real bravery in the midst of danger is that they have long been cultivating disciplines, convictions and patterns, sometimes over a lifetime. The same can be said about the Israelites that Isaiah is speaking to in the passage above. While things are really bleak, they are from a long line of people who have trusted God, who left their homes, who gave up their gods to follow the Lord. In other words, they were trained for this. It's not just doing what God says, it's about knowing God. The first Anabaptists were willing to "swim toward sharks" in their quest to follow Jesus. Who would be willing to die to follow Jesus as a member of this Anabaptist group? The message also featured the testimony of one our community who will be baptized in a couple of weeks. Grant shared his confession of faith with us.…

Scripture: John 15:1-10 "Abide" is central to John's gospel. Abide is the orientation of our lives to Jesus, but also of Jesus's life with us. Jesus tells his disciples that he will abide with them, even as he goes away. In this goodbye it's interesting that Jesus actually never tells the disciples that they ought to bear fruit. It's actually the work of God to bear fruit. Our job, our only role, is to abide. Sabbath is the way we abide. Why do we yield our time around the Lord's day? Because Sabbath is an invitation to rest. Because God rests. But God doesn't need rest. Rest is the time to delight in the pleasure of what God creates.…

Scripture: Matthew 18:1-5 The disciples of Jesus have "power problems." Who's going to be greatest? Who's going to sit next to him? And as usual, Jesus has to gently put them in their place. He tells them, Unless you turn around and become like a child you will never enter the kingdom of heaven." Jesus brings attention to children because of their social rank--at the very bottom of the hierarchy. Melissa held up the Presbyterian minister and children's TV icon, Mr. Rogers, as someone who took seriously the experiences of children. He treated them with dignity. Jesus tells his disciples to convert to children but Mr. Rogers shows us what that might look like.…

Scripture: Proverbs 3:5-8 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own insight. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths." It's easy to "weaponize" this teaching in Proverbs, to make us believe that the rational or scientific reasoning may be suspect. That can open us up to a lot of hucksters peddling whatever they have decided is God's truth. Wisdom comes from patient, attentive discernment of the questions that are always before us. Because wisdom intersects with community, wisdom asks, is it good for the body of Jesus? Is it good for all of us? We turn our lives towards the way God is shaping and forming the reign of God, not through violence and coercion. But instead through the constant enduring love of God that's made known to us in Jesus.…

Jeremiah 17: 5-8 This week RMC's Miguel Cruz preached the sermon in Spanish. The English voice you will hear is that of the live translator in the sanctuary. Due to the nature of the recording tech, there is some residual audio of Miguel's voice in the background. ** Preaching from Jeremiah, Miguel asks us to test and examine ourselves deeply when we ask the question: where does our help come from when encounter injustice, strife, and hostility in the world? If our answer is that we rely on our own power, skills, and intellect to confront these modern ills and idols, we almost certainly doom ourselves to perpetual dissatisfaction, even if our desires are righteous. We must realize that we owe every ability we have and every good thing we might do to God's goodness and mercy. The scriptures say that our hope comes from the Lord, and that means allowing God lead us instead of relying on our own strength. By giving up, we win.…

The Resurrection Is For The Hopeless – April 20, 2025 11:37

Luke 24: 1-12 Happy Easter everyone! This week Melissa Florer-Bixler preached from the Gospel of Luke. The women Disciples (the men having scattered) around Jesus, despite their deep grief and despair, stayed with Jesus through his arrest, death, and burial, and then returned only to find the tomb empty save for shining beings that declared his resurrection. The women shared this with the other Disciples, only for them to disbelieve because they had not stayed to witness and to suffer the same trauma as the women during Christ's crucifixion. Melissa reminds us that the resurrection in meant for those nearest to despair. Like these steadfast women, we are drawn with grief and despair to a tomb in our own times - the suffering and evil deeds that we see all around us in this extremely unsettling year. Christ's resurrection however, in freeing us from sin and death, transforms that deep hopelessness into a freedom to participate in the radical and surprising redemptive work that God is doing in the world.…

Luke 19: 28-40 What could we possibly have to learn about the Gospel message from a donkey? Luke spends as much time in his Gospel on the donkey Jesus rode into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday as he does on the Lord's Supper. Melissa Florer-Bixler reminds us this Palm Sunday that our Anabaptist ancestors were keenly aware of the spiritual lessons to learn from the suffering and death of their animals, which brought life to their owners. Likewise, our suffering in serving and giving to our neighbors, the poor, and the incarcerated gives life and reflects the lessons we can learn from Jesus' suffering. Melissa further explains that Jesus came for an even greater purpose than suffering as an example. Let us all remember this Palm Sunday that He came to free all creation, (including the creatures and little donkeys) from the bondage of sin and death.…

John 12: 1-8 This week Melissa Florer-Bixler preaches on Mary anointing Jesus' feet with expensive funerial perfume meant for Lazarus, whom Jesus had recently raised from the dead. Mary knows that Jesus plans to go Jerusalem soon to die, and her offering is a reckless offering of love, not just grief, as she sacrifices in a moment a precious heirloom meant to anoint many generations to come. During Lent we often focus on confessing our weakness, but Mary's story reminds us of the power in confessing our love, without consideration for pride or cost. The perfume would have eventually run out, but her sacrificial recklessness was followed by Jesus' humble washing of the disciples' feet, and after many generations was passed on to us in John's Gospel as an example of the reckless love God intends for us to share with the world.…

Scripture: Luke 15:1-3, 11b-32 How many times have we heard Jesus's parable of the Prodigal Son from Luke 15? While the focus is usually on the son who leaves with his share of the inheritance and squanders it away, Melissa brings us a fresh perspective on the father and the eldest son. Not only was the younger son lost, but so was the older son, who stayed at home and continued to work with his father. When this son refuses to join the festive party welcoming his kid brother back home, his father wants to know where he is. For a second time in the parable, a father goes out to find his son. In this Lenten season of reflection and penance, what have we come to believe about justice and mercy? Will we see that God has come out of the house, away from the party, for each of us?…

From Confession to Penance – March 23, 2025 14:25

14:25

Scripture: Isaiah 55:1-9 God's version of confession and penance is entirely different from the world's understanding of confession and penance. During Lent we have to let go of the anxiety that comes from the long-held cultural myth that confessing can only make things worse. Penance is to accept responsibility and to repair what is broken. Penance means we take out our needle and thread and we stitch up what was torn. Lent is a season of penance, not of punishment. Our God will abundantly pardon, and confession is a beginning. Confession can break forth into penance and repair in a way that is actually better than it was before. It's about getting right with one another and getting right with God. Restoring relationships is at the heart of all of it. God's relationship with God's people. What are acts of penance you can take during Lent to restore relationships with those around you? Note: There was a technical issue with the recording at the beginning of Melissa's sermon, so the first minute or two was cut off.…

Luke 13: 31-35 Many of us are uncomfortable, especially pacifists, with anger and how we treat each other when tempers flare. The Bible is clear, however, that Jesus often became frustrated or upset with those around him, and even God gets angry too. Jesus, though angry with his own disciples and the evils of Herod and the Roman state, turned his energy and agitation to doing more healing and teaching and did not abandon his followers to save own life. RMC's Jordan Morehouse, in their debut sermon, invites us to explore how our anger over injustices can motivate us to protest, to advocate for the downtrodden, and serve our neighbors. The love of Christ, which did not die with him on the cross, lives on in our hearts and converts our anger and frustrations into motivation for righteous action that builds the kingdom of God. As we struggle with the evils of our own time, let us all consider what makes us angry and follow Jesus's example, by leaning in to more healing, love, and righteous action.…
