Walking in the Resurrection: Pentecost
The Practice Church Podcast
Jesus’s resurrection from the dead that first Easter morning changed everything. He began his ministry by announcing the arrival of the kingdom of God, and in his death and resurrection he defeated the powers of sin. Yet, we still live in a world consumed by darkness. We suffer, we grieve, we lose hope. The kingdom of God is a present reality for us now, but not all of God’s promises have been fulfilled. We live in the tension of the “already, but not yet.” In this series, we will be exploring the time between Jesus’s resurrection and Pentecost, in some traditions called Eastertide....

Easter Sunday
The Practice Church Podcast
Alleluia! Christ is Risen! He is Risen Indeed! This week we remember and celebrate Christ’s victory over death when he rose from the tomb that first Easter morning. This week, Jason led us through the story of Mary Magdalen at the tomb, encountering the risen Jesus. Mary, initially, does not recognize him because she had a limited picture of Jesus as the Messiah. Jason invited us to consider, what gets in our way of recognizing Jesus in our own lives? When we encounter grief, pain, loss, unfulfilled expectations or when our days simply feel like we are “living on the verge of...

Defaults: Examining our Pictures of God
The Practice Church Podcast
C.S. Lewis once said that our ideas about God are not “divine ideas.” As much as we’d like to believe that our views of God are always biblical, we all bring assumptions and default beliefs to the table through our lived experience. Our culture, relationships, childhood hurts, and even our churches can all wrongly influence and shape our beliefs about who God is – often without us even realizing it. Rather than following the one, true God, we end up worshiping a God shaped by our own experiences. In this series, we’ll examine some common default views of God many of us...

info_outlineJoy is a foundational element of our faith. It connects us to God, ourselves and one another, it helps us endure difficult seasons, and it grounds our lives in the loving presence of God. This month, we will craft experiments to practice together that will help us deepen our capacity for joy.
You can find the handout for crafting an experiment here.
In the first week, Nicole guided us through crafting our experiments. She invited us to consider how we might move toward centering ourselves in Christ and cultivate the conditions necessary for joy to grow in our lives.
