Life is different in the light of Easter. Easter plops us into a world that is supposed to feel brand new. We’ve just experienced resurrection, after all. Shouldn’t the world be all white daisies and blue skies? Well, yes and no. The thing about living resurrection is that we live it even as we wait for it. Resurrection re-orders life with the expectation that nothing is ever really over. After the winter, there’s the warm spring. After the violence, there’s the opportunity to practice peace. In the dark early morning, there’s the contemplation of a transformed friend. Let’s explore Easter’s fifty days, imagining again what resurrection life means for us and how that makes a difference in the world that God loves. Through Jesus, we see the world as it should be. Now we are tasked to make it so. ★ Support this podcast ★…

The Table — not the cross — is the symbol Jesus chose to remember him by. In this Easter reflection, we step into the Strange New World of resurrection and explore why the Eucharist, Communion, and the Lord’s Supper have always been at the heart of Christian practice. Long before the gospels were written, before theology was fully formed, the first followers of Jesus gathered around a table — and they experienced grace you could taste . In this video, discover: 🕊 Why Jesus asked to be remembered through a meal, not a monument 🛐 The ancient Christian symbols — from the Chi-Rho to the Ichthus — and their hidden meanings 📜 Why the Eucharist is the earliest Christian ritual we know ✝️ How real presence, mystery, and grace still meet us at the table today This isn’t just remembering a story. It’s encountering the Spirit that remakes the world — one shared meal, one open table, one broken loaf at a time. #Communion #Eucharist #LordsSupper #TableOfChrist #Easter #Resurrection #ChristianSymbols #Grace #FaithAndPractice ★ Support this podcast ★…

Why does Easter begin with something as heartbreaking — and irreversible — as death? In this honest, layered Easter message, Jeremy shares a deeply personal reflection on parenting, grief, and the story of Jesus’ death and resurrection. From losing a beloved family dog to wrestling with theological shorthand that reduces Easter to a transaction, this is an exploration of why the cross is not about God’s anger — but about God’s grace. Through the words of Jesus in John 12, we rediscover: • ✝️ The cross as the judgment of the world, not its condemnation • 🔥 How violence and injustice are exposed, not excused • 🕊 Why the “prince of this world” is not the devil, but the systems and powers we’ve created • 🌱 And how resurrection is not an escape — but the slow, inevitable healing of everything This isn’t about a God who demands suffering. It’s about a God who refuses to look away from our pain — and invites us into a future shaped by peace, forgiveness, and impossible hope. 📖 Featuring insights from John 12, Ephesians, and personal stories of loss and wonder. #Easter #WhyDidJesusDie #TheCross #Resurrection #GriefAndFaith #GoodFriday #EasterSunday #ChristianHope #HolyWeek ★ Support this podcast ★…

Today we explore the powerful conclusion to the Lord's Prayer, examining the familiar yet mysterious lines about temptation, evil, and the well-known benediction: "For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever." In this message, we unpack some fascinating questions: Why do we ask God not to lead us into temptation? Does God actually tempt us? What exactly is "the evil" we’re being delivered from? Is it the devil, or something closer to home? Where did the popular benediction at the end of the prayer originate, and why isn't it included in all biblical manuscripts? Discover the rich historical roots of the Lord's Prayer and its early usage in the ancient text known as the Didache, along with how early Christian communities shaped this prayer we still recite today. Join us as we delve deep into practical and spiritual insights, exploring how this prayer shapes our understanding of God, community, and our role in transforming the world around us. Learn how Jesus invites us not to simply resist temptation but to actively refuse to remain in a world of brokenness and injustice.

Join Bobbi from Commons Church on March 23, 2025, as she explores the powerful line from the Lord's Prayer: "Give us today our daily bread." This isn't just about physical food, but about all our needs – physical, emotional, and spiritual. In this thought-provoking talk, Bobbi delves into the historical and social context of this prayer, connecting it to the Exodus story and the concept of Sabbath rest. She shares personal reflections on her own prayer journey and the many forms prayer can take. What makes this message truly unique is the integration of Polyvagal Theory. Bobbi explains the three systems of survival – freeze, fight/flight, and social engagement – and how they relate to our ability to trust and have our needs met. Discover how our bodies are designed for connection and collaboration in receiving what we need, and how this ties into the act of prayer. We'll explore different interpretations of "daily bread," from literal sustenance to a metaphor for a new kind of tomorrow. Plus, hear prayers from various traditions, including the First Nations Version of the New Testament. Whether you're new to prayer or have been practicing for years, this message will offer fresh insights and a deeper understanding of how prayer connects us to God and to each other.

This week, we dive deep into the heart of the Lord’s Prayer—exploring what Jesus teaches us about prayer and how it can transform our spiritual lives. We begin by reflecting on Meister Eckhart's profound reminder: "If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is 'thank you,' it will be enough." With this powerful simplicity, we enter into a discussion about how the language we choose in prayer shapes our relationship with God and one another. Today’s sermon invites us to explore: Prayerful Adjectives: Why the attributes we assign to God matter deeply. Parental Figures: Understanding the familial language Jesus uses—beyond traditional gender binaries—to ground our prayers in shared community. Our Shared Reality: Recognizing prayer as an expression of unity, reminding us that God belongs to all of us. Newborn Desires: How aligning our desires with God's transforms not just our prayers but our lives. Ultimately, this message encourages us to reimagine prayer as sacred conversation—where we are fully known, completely safe, and unconditionally loved. It's a space where authenticity meets divine embrace. Join us as we rediscover prayer as a profound act of trust, solidarity, and hope. May this teaching encourage you to see yourself and the world through the compassionate eyes of our collective Father. ★ Support this podcast ★…

🙏 What if prayer isn’t what you thought? 🙏 If you’ve ever struggled with prayer, you’re not alone. Is it worship, wishful thinking, or something we say to make life better? Today, we’re diving into what prayer really means by exploring Jesus’ surprising critique of hypocrites, publicists, and pagans, as well as a hilarious yet heartfelt prayer from Tina Fey’s Bossypants. We’ll unpack how prayer can be humorous, deeply honest, and profoundly human—all at once. Maybe prayer was never meant to be a formula, performance, or tool for divine manipulation. Maybe Jesus’ famous prayer—the one you’ve heard a thousand times—was always meant to teach us more about ourselves than about how to impress God. Join us as we reimagine prayer together, laughing, reflecting, and rediscovering a practice that might just be bigger—and simpler—than we’ve ever imagined. Let’s talk about how to pray—and why honesty matters more than perfection.

Today, we dive deep into one of the most pivotal and tragic moments in the story of David—the moment where everything shifts. We’ll explore: ✅ War for the sake of war ✅ Rooftop encounters and unchecked power ✅ Like father, like son—how brokenness repeats ✅ Learning the lessons before it’s too late Before we begin, a content warning: this episode deals with themes of sexual assault and violence. I’ll handle these topics with care, but if you need to skip this one for your well-being, I completely understand. We often hear the famous phrase: “Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” But have we considered the full quote? “Great men are almost always bad men… still more so when you superadd the certainty of corruption by authority.” David’s life is the perfect case study. Once a humble shepherd, a warrior with integrity, a man after God’s own heart—his rise to power was meteoric. But once he sat on the throne, something changed. Power reshaped him. His choices had devastating consequences, not just for himself, but for his family and his nation. This is a story of how small compromises turn into tragic collapses. How sin, left unchecked, doesn’t just hurt us—it ripples through generations. And perhaps most importantly, it forces us to ask: What am I overlooking in my own life? Because if we celebrate the victories of David while ignoring his downfall, we risk walking the same path. 🔔 Subscribe for more deep-dive explorations of Scripture. 👍 Like and share if this message speaks to you. 💬 Drop your thoughts in the comments—what stands out to you in David’s story? #David #BibleStudy #Faith #PowerAndCorruption #OldTestament #LessonsFromHistory ★ Support this podcast ★…

In the fifth sermon in our Becoming King series David finally becomes king! Bobbi takes us through the beginning of David’s kingship and the questions that surround his ascension. Becoming King: David is anointed by the elders of Israel and finally made king. He’s got everything a king could want, power, riches, and God on his side. However, Bobbi shows us that David’s meteoric rise to power brings with it questions like, what will the future hold for someone who seemingly has it all? What insecurities will come about for someone who has secured everything? And, what has been left behind in the process of David’s success? Priest Things: David attempts to bring the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem. His first attempt ended in the death of a man named Uzzah. During his second attempt, David takes on a more priestly role by following instructions outlined in the law, wearing a garment of a priest, and by offering sacrifices along the way to Jerusalem. These are the tools that Bobbi named that equip us to be priests for ourselves and the world: eucharist and baptism, liturgical seasons and community life, scripture and prayer. Everything You Ever Wanted: Once the Ark is settled in a tent in Jerusalem David finally rests in his palace, free from his enemies. He Inquires of Nathan the prophet about building a House for God. God instructs Nathan to tell David otherwise. The House of God will not be built during David’s reign, but instead, it will be built during his son Solomon’s reign. What God wants David to remember is that it was God who brought him to this point, and it will be God who will builds the House of David, establishing David’s family as part of God’s everlasting kingdom—planting a seed of messianic hope. David Prays: David is reminded of how God’s presence had been woven throughout his life. David reflects on Nathan’s words with a prayer, reminding us to take account of our lives and where we are headed. Bobbi encourages us to reckon with our current situation and pay attention to God’s involvement. Like David, we are meant to commune with God more. Even when you have it all - there’s more to have - there’s always a deeper meaning to find. ★ Support this podcast ★…
