Send us a text Ever struggled to forgive someone, even when you know it's the right thing to do? That's a journey we're all familiar with, and in this episode, we seek to unravel the complexities of forgiveness and share insights that could transform your perspective. Throughout our conversation, we tackle the misconceptions surrounding forgiveness. We delve into the difference between forgiveness and reconciliation, exploring why letting go of bitterness is a personal decision, while rebuilding trust requires mutual effort. With personal stories, theological insights, and the wisdom of figures like Martin Luther King Jr., we challenge the notion that forgiveness is a sign of weakness. Instead, we present it as a profound act of strength and liberation, capable of opening doors to healing and growth in both personal relationships and broader societal contexts. This episode seeks to redefine forgiveness by examining its spiritual and emotional dimensions. It’s not about ignoring or excusing harm, but about acknowledging the truth and choosing to release resentment. By discussing how forgiveness aligns with redemption and underscores the importance of boundaries, we highlight that it doesn’t erase the memory of wrongdoing but cancels the emotional debt without removing accountability. Join us as we explore how the act of forgiveness can be a powerful tool for personal transformation and a catalyst for hope in our everyday lives.…

Send us a text Ever wondered why modern churches often struggle with embodying the humility and self-sacrificial love that Jesus exemplified? Join Katie, Mac, and Josiah as we navigate the journey of molding our communities into reflections of Christ, questioning how Enlightenment ideals and individualism have reshaped our understanding of selfless love and humility. As we continue our conversation, we grapple with the tension between contemporary church leadership models and the countercultural way of Jesus. The book "A Church Called Tov" prompts us to reevaluate pastoral roles, contrasting the CEO-like expectations with the biblical image of shepherds committed to prayer and spiritual guidance. We share how others' expectations sometimes clash with authentic discipleship values, emphasizing that true growth and success aren't always measured by numbers but by faithfulness and transformation through divine grace. Finally, we reflect on the importance of embracing faithfulness over immediate success. Inspired by Jesus' ministry and author Eugene Peterson's experiences, we discuss the temptation to create momentum artificially and the pitfalls of consumer-driven church cultures. Through the analogy of navigating with a compass, we underscore the necessity of aligning our direction with core Christian values, acknowledging the gaps between our current state and where we need to be. Join us as we encourage a collective reassessment of our spiritual journeys, fostering a community rooted in the faithful love and teachings of Christ.…

Send us a text On this episode of Praxis, we explore the transformative power of truth-telling within church communities. We unravel the concept of "trafficking in the truth" and discuss the critical importance of transparent leadership. Drawing insights from " A Church Called Tov ", we underline the dangers of hiding moral failures and how openness can lead to authentic growth and a healthy church culture. Join us as we bridge the gap between toxic and nurturing church environments, and discover how embodying truth, as Jesus did, fosters a culture of goodness. Balancing truth and grace can feel like walking a tightrope, but it’s a vital skill for nurturing a thriving church community. Through the lens of Jesus' interactions with the Samaritan woman and Peter, we illustrate how addressing deep personal issues with love and dignity can lead to transformation. We reflect on why merely pointing out faults fails without the good news of God's love and restoration. Learn how Jesus' method of asking probing questions promotes internalizing truth, contrasting starkly with the dogmatic approaches often seen in modern culture and social media. Creating a shame-free environment for honest dialogue can revolutionize church culture. We share personal anecdotes on the pitfalls of aggressive truth-telling and deceptive grace-giving, emphasizing the need for transparency and integrity. Through touching stories and humor, we highlight the importance of self-truth and building communities where honesty flourishes. Drawing from teachings of Jesus and James, we stress that letting your "yes" be yes and your "no" be no is key to authentic communication. Tune in as we uncover how to balance truth and grace, cultivate genuine connections, and foster a culture of goodness.…
