Practicing the Presence: Application

Jan 28 2025 44 mins  
In the final episode of our series on Brother Lawrence’s Practicing the Presence of God, we explore how to bring his insights into our daily lives.

Christian Freedom, Politics, and Religious Liberty with Brad Littlejohn

Jan 14 2025 77 mins  
It’s no secret that many Christians feel disoriented when it comes to understanding the relationship between faith and politics. Much of this confusion comes from the fact that we’ve adopted a modern conception of freedom. To the modern mind freedom refers to the ability to do whatever you want, but what if that assumption is wrong? What if Christianity provides a concept of fr

Practicing the Presence: Attention

We continue our series on Brother Lawrence’s classic work Practicing the Presence of God by focusing, no pun intended, on the topic of attention.

The Olivet Discourse: Is it About the End of the World? with Jon Sedlak

Nov 05 2024 84 mins  
A lot of ink’s been spilled over the timeline of Matthew 24, the famous “Olivet Discourse”. Jon Sedlak helps us to step back from the debates throughout church history and examine this famous discourse with fresh eyes. What if Jesus doesn’t answer his disciples’ questions in the order they’re asked? What if he intends for his disciples to hear his words as solely about
