This week, Laura and Ethan are joined by Dr. Toni Alimi for a conversation about The Tough Stuff in our scripture and tradition.

How to Read the Bible?

The word of God is living and active, but what does this mean? How do we read scripture after it has been used as a tool for harm? Join us for this conversation where Laura and Ethan share some of the things they love about the Bible and some approaches to reading it devotionally in our lives.

What Is Grief?

Oct 14 2024 55 mins

What is Prayer?

Oct 10 2024 49 mins

We talk all the time about prayer but ... what exactly is it? What "counts" as prayer? Is prayer a merely intellectual exercise, or conversation, or monologue to God? Or is it embodied? Do we have to "feel" something in prayer? These are the questions we tackle with friends and experts, The Rev. Angela Tyler-Williams and The Rev. Adelyn Tyler-Williams on today's pod!

Oct 07 2024 48 mins

When we stand in the rubble of our faith, how do we know what we can rebuild on? When we're ready to lay down our lament and anger at all we were disillusioned by (or maybe even when we're not) how do we take the next step? Let's get into what it means to reconstruct after deconstructing.

What Does St. Paul REALLY Say About Women in Ministry and Leadership?

Sep 30 2024 54 mins

Under nearly every video, photo, or post we make on the internet as two women clergy, there is at least one comment that says: "Paul has entered the chat." It's meant as a snarky condemnation of our work as women leaders in Christian faith, implying - as many believe - that St. Paul thought GOD thought women should never lead. Or speak. Or do anything interesting in church except m

How Do We Read the Bible with Kids?

Sep 26 2024 41 mins

How do we approach the complexity of Scripture in a way that tells the truth of God to our children, and to ourselves? How can we emphasize stories that tell the breadth and depth of God's love for all people? We called in two experts - Rachel Eleanor and Mariko Clark - who are fresh off the printing press with their new book, a storytelling Bible called The Book of Belonging, to t

What is a Proverbs 31 Woman, Really?

Sep 23 2024 39 mins

Maybe "Biblical Womanhood" is the friends we made along the way. Lizzie and Laura dive into Proverbs 31 in this week's episode. Some Christians have interpreted this passage to be a literal picture of womanhood in a way that has been limiting and restrictive for women. A close reading of this passage reveals that it offers a picture of how EVERYONE should strive to live as followe

What does teen ministry teach us about Jesus?

Sep 16 2024 36 mins

In the pressure cooker of extracurriculars and the minefield of navigating autonomy and dependence, caring for teens can be tough in church. But that makes is all the more authentic, and important!

How is Parenting Sacramental?

Sep 09 2024 63 mins

Parenting breaks us and build us up, and somewhere in the mess of gathering around toddler tables and in the unutterable losses, God is with us. Sacraments are outward and visible signs of inward spiritual grace -- something we can see, taste, smell, touch, and hear -- that point us to a wild divine pattern interrupting our lives. Join us for a powerful conversation on how parentin
